Barack Obama---Please vote on Nov. 4th 2008

Barack Hussein Obama is a U.S. Senator from Illinois and a Democratic candidate for president in 2008. He was born Aug. 4, 1961, in Hawaii. Obama graduated from Columbia University in 1983 with a political science degree, and he entered Harvard Law School in 1988. Obama published an autobiography in 1995--"Dreams From My Father: A Story of Race and Inheritance". He was elected to the Illinois State Senate in 1996. In 2000, Obama ran for a seat in the U.S. House of Representatives, but lost to incumbent Bobby Rush. In 2004, Obama won the Democratic primary for the U.S. Senate. That summer, he delivered the keynote speech at the 2004 Democratic National Convention. His opponent in the senate race was supposed to Jack Ryan. However, Ryan withdrew from the race amid sexual allegations by his ex-wife. Alan Keyes replaced Ryan on the ballot, and in the general election, Obama won easily, grabbing 70 percent of the vote.

Fifty-three percent of the uncommitted voters surveyed identifiedDemocratic nominee Barack Obama as the winner of tonight's debate.Twenty-two percent said Republican rival John McCain won. Twenty-fourpercent saw the debate as a draw.
More uncommitted voters trusted Obama than McCain to make the rightdecisions about health care. Before the debate, 61 percent ofuncommitted voters said that they trust Obama on that; after, 69 percentsaid that. For McCain, 27 percent trusted him to manage health carebefore the debate; 30 percent said so afterwards.
63 percent think Obama will raise their taxes, while 48 percent thinkMcCain will.
Before the debate, 54 percent thought Obama shared their values. Thatpercentage rose to 63 percent after the debate. For McCain, 53 percentthought he shared their values before the debate, and 56 percent thoughtso afterwards.
