This I definitely agree with. As someone who voted for Al Gore in 2000, I am so glad I broke from blindly following a party that is so far from my core beliefs and that is the only "acceptable" party in the black community to vote for. I think it goes beyone voting issues..I think people should also pray about who to vote for and examine their own morals and character when selecting a President. I think who you vote for reflects greatly on the values you hold near and dear to your heart.

I would say I almost agree with that except I do not believe that any president or candidate has ever shown the American people who they really are or what their beliefs or morals really are. This is politics and they are all out to win an election and all to some extent do that by any means necessary. Living in the Washington area and knowing some of the moves not in the public eye that the President and his Administration has made would make many rethink their estimation of his values and morals. I think some of it would give you pause. Does that mean you should not vote for him as President? No. But if we want to make the selection of our leader about morals we need to be looking at a whole other kind of information about them than what we currently get as surface lip service into what they say that they believe. Some actions speak way louder than words. I think that same thing could be said about each President and candidate.
