I support Barack Obama for President because of his ability to actually speak intelligently.
First, that isn't an answer to the question. The question is about policies, not anybody's ability to speak intelligently.
Second, are you serious??!!!
Wow.... I hope you keep posting on this thread. This is going to get good!
Now asking people to explain in terms of policies why they picked Obama over Clinton is being characterized as a diatribe against Obama. Classic.
And people wonder why Obama supporters are perceived as whiny babies all the time. First it was, "If you don't vote for Obama you must be a dumb racist white guy." Now we can't even ask about his POLICIES without being considered going off on a negative diatribe against Obama.
Keep 'em comin'!
It leads me to believe that you are actually one of John McCain's 'McCainiac web trolls' or are a paid propagandist for John McCain's campaign.
This is turning out better than I could have imagined... now asking people to express why, based on policies, they support Obama leads to accusations of being a paid McCain supporter. Classic.
If asking about Obama's policies is now considered a form of McCain propaganda, Obama is in DEEP trouble come November.
So back on topic, I'm still waiting to read which of BO's policies you found made the difference between wanting BO or HRC to be the next President.

Starting Phased Redeployment within First Days in Office: The most important part of Barack Obama's plan is to end our military engagement in Iraq's civil war and immediately start bringing our troops home. As president, one of Obama's first official actions would be to convene the Joint Chiefs of Staff, his Secretary of Defense, and his National Security Council. He would direct them to draw up a clear, viable plan to bring our troops home starting with the first 60 days of his Administration. He would also direct the Department of Defense and the Department of Veterans Affairs to prepare a comprehensive plan to provide the highest quality health care and benefits to every service member -- including every member of the National Guard and Reserves -- and their families.
Securing Stability in Iraq as we Bring our Troops Home. As president, Barack Obama would focus American aid efforts during our redeployment on stabilizing Iraq, not propping up the Iraqi government. He would direct aid to the entities -- whether governmental or non-governmental -- most likely to get it into the hands of the Iraqi people. He would also support the appointment of a high level U.N. representative -- similar to those appointed in Afghanistan, Bosnia, and Kosovo -- to help broker peace among the parties in Iraq.
A New Intensive Diplomatic Initiative in the Region. In his first days in office, Barack Obama would convene a regional stabilization group composed of key allies, other global powers, and all of the states bordering Iraq. The- mission of this group would be to develop and implement a strategy to create a stable Iraq.

Dude, you and a few other people (half of whom I have never seen post on ATS before) are posting anti-Obama propaganda at an amazing rate.
It's a sustained negative campaign play to create Fear, Uncertainty, and Doubt - right out of the Karl Rove playbook, replete with right wing "talking points"...
We've seen this kind of thing before, four years ago to be precise
I don't know if you're paid or volunteers, but it's pretty clear there is an agenda at work here...
You keep asking us why we support Barack Obama.
Why don't you tell us who you support and why?

Looks like Hillary has won the popular vote when all the votes are counted. Hillary should be the democratic nominee. For the DNC machine to give Obama the Nom when Hillary has won the popular vote would be a gross violation of democratic principles.

I've been on ATS for 6 years and came back to check things out and thought this turned into a Right Wing News Site. It's good to know that this is only the doing of a select few people and that ATS hasn't made a radical departure from what made it famous in the first place.

So which of Obama's position made you support Barry O. instead of Hillary?
Just curious.

Pleas provide your reference for stating that my position that the supposed democratic party to defy the will of the people, and select the candidate that lost the popular vote, is a gross violation of democratic principles is in fact a violation of democratic principles.
The delegates are supposed to choose the candidate that the people have chosen, that is democracy. For the delegates to chose a candidate not selected by the people is a violation of democracy.
Where is your logic for claiming the opposite.
