Ed, I’ve been a registered Republican my entire life and I’ve always lived in New Jersey. I voted twice for President Ronald Reagan and even campaigned for his second term. I am voting for Barack Obama. Why? Because he reminds me of Reagan; he gives us new hope. He’s going to make us strong as a nation, not just in the United States but throughout the whole world. And I’m hoping that he wins. Thanks for letting me voice my opinion.

In that Barack is a charismatic persona with a natural talent for uniting and motivating masses, there is, now that you mention it, a similarity. His politics, not so much. But we do need a leader. Thanks for your thought-provoking opinion.— Ed. Note
