If the issue is Gitmo, I don't support the full closure of the facility, however, I would rather see detainees processed and documented a little faster.  The argument generally goes: "they aren't following the rules so why should we?" when in fact we should be following our own legal system in place at home (with some obvious changes) if we really want anyone to believe we wish to "spread democracy".

 

As another said, in 2012 I will wait and listen to what each candidate has to offer before I decide.  If I could go back to the 2008 election I would change my vote to Obama as it has become clear to me through his words and his early actions that he does more than likely truly have the best intentions for our country at heart.  I'm not saying John McCain didn't, but Barak connects with more people.  He also appears to be going in for a bipartisan approach to the presidency as John Mccain was aiming for which is appealing to me.  If I had it my way, we would have conservative economics, liberal social system, and no gun laws.  But you know what?  The country has decided and chosen Barak Obama as our president, and I will support him unconditionally as our president like I did with George W. Bush and Bill Clinton.  I don't bailout on supporting our president because we get where we get together and that takes more than 1 man.
