Democratic Republican

I consider myself a Democratic Republican. Even though I am fairly conservative about most issues, I also grew up in a very Democratic country (the Netherlands) and agree with a lot of Democratic political views.
This election, I chose to vote for the Democratic nominee Barack Obama. It is great to be part of the election that changes history, and something my children will learn about in school. I agree with all those out there that it's time for "change". It's also important that our new president is favored by the rest of the world. Whether or not Obama can actually accomplish all the things he has promised, remains to be seen.

It's in God's hands. He will work this out for his means. So we shouldn't worry very much :)

I didn't know Holland was democratic,
I thought it was socialistic. And that is the aim of Mr. Obama, to turn America into a socialistic and eventually into a communistic country. Is that the type of change you are hoping for?
I bet Joe just loves that! :)

Any new president in the white house is going to bring change. Different people do things differently. What things has Obabma promised that you feel he will bring to America?

Hey you always say you think people should say what they really think. That is what Challis and I just did. But really what do you think Obama can bring? I kind of like this country we live in.

One of the things I think he can do, is rekindle a better relationship with foreign countries. Bush has damaged a lot of public opinion in many places throughout the world. I read a few articles that showed we were the only country that was 50% divided. Holland even favored Obama by 90%
