We have two people running for president right now. Hiliary Clinton, and Burak Obama. Im 18 this year and i have know idea who im voting for. Hilary Clinton is a good woman and i believe she would be a good candidate. She would also be the first Woman President. However i dont know much about Hilary and shes still married to Bill Clinton. i dont know about that. Then theres Burak. He cares alot and tries hard to give the people what they want. However he isnt very experienced, and i dont know that much about him either. And he would be the first Black President. Personally im torn. I also have know idea who will win. Unfortunatley, alot of America is filled with Men. And many men dont think that a woman can, or should run our country. of course that is just some peoples pig headed opinion. Then There is Burak. Our world is still very rasicst and i think thats sad. people think that Black people are different, and are lower then men. Thats crap. Women Men and Black people are all the same and i think everybody should be treated equally. I just hope that the people of america can choose the candidate that is best equipped for the job, and not on Racism, and Sexism. Good Luck Voting this year, and do the right thing.

First off I understand your confusion because I will also be 18 come voting time and have similar fears and concerns. However, learning how to spell people's names would be a nice start for you...Barack Obama and Hillary Clintion. Also, the fact that one is a woman and one is black should not be anyone's deciding factor. I don't even like to think about it, even though everyone else seems to focus on that. You should agree with a canidates policies and goals if you are going to vote for them. Do some research on each canidate, even on republicans to b/c, judging from your post, you don't seem confident in your choices. You have to look into these things b/c they are somewhat important... :)
Have a Nice Day.

k one ive never seen his name spelled before ive only heard it so i just sounded it out. and i say that i did pretty good considering. and FYI u spelled Hillary's name rong. its Clinton but nice try. i am researching them, and ur right im not confident in either one of them. however u dont seem to understand that im saying people shouldn't vote for someone cause there black, a woman or not. i dont see it either but i unforuntaly know that our world is not perfect and i know for a fact that people are still racist and sexist, and will vote that way, because i deal with it every day. i hate it.people need to get over it.

Actually, neither one is running for president yet. And it's not a competition between them yet. It will be a competition between whoever the democrats nominate (Hillary, Barack, John, or whoever) and whoever the republicans nominate, plus a smattering of third-party candidates.
(if you can't see the fnords they won't eat you)
maybe so, but whens the last time the news spent hours talking about a third party candidate, even so whens the last time a third party actually Won a presidential campain?
