Barack Obama – Why vote for him?

Is Barack Obama worth voting for? Is he of substance? I think he is a man of substance. He left college to go and help improve other people’s lives. He did good and realised he needed to do it on a bigger scale – become president of America! If I could I would vote for him. If he wins he will be the first black American president. He would epitomise the decolonisation of Africa – African leading American!! I mean this in a nice way though – imagine how that would lead to improvement in Afro-American politics!! Would that not lead to better world politics? Maybe that would reduce strife and poverty in Africa. He should not be judged on his colour but on his personality.
