The Powerful Support Behind Barack Obama

Illinois senator Barack Obama has some interesting supporters backing his campaign this election of 2008. Big names stand behind Senator Obama such as Jesse Jackson, Oprah Winfrey and now Senator John Kerry. As we hear the constant debates back and forth between Senator Clinton and Senator Obama you can’t help but be distracted by the newsbreaks concerning his voter fan base. Though this has kept the news cameras rolling all the fame behind a candidate does not promise an end victory. As Obama continues to be bombarded with comments concerned that he does not come to the election with enough experience to be a suitable president can be seen throughout the course of this election.

Many political representatives feel that Barack Obama is simply not ready to be president. Obama stands firm on his concerns with a future war with Pakistan, which is another area Obama is being attacked over. Senator Clinton states that words about war with Pakistan should be spoken with care and that Senator Obama should be more wary of how his words over foreign relations will affect America as a whole. Senator Obama states that his political substance is not to be concerned over that he only states the honest knowledge of what may be in the future. He stated that his largest concern is about keeping this nation safe from all forms of terrorist attack. As Senator Obama represents change that is strongly desired by the American people, his chance for victory with famous supporters or questionable experience may not effect his victory as much as his charismatic speeches and drive for this presidential election.
