The USA elections are approaching fast. Whoever the next president is will impact the whole planet.
Who do you think the next USA president will be and why?
Let the debating begin!

I think it will be that Obama guy, but I guess I'd prefer Hillary Clinton.
This is not a debate, this is just a thread like 'what did you have for breakfast?'. The title should be 'Who do you think should be President and why'. I personally think I want Hilliary Clinton as she reminds me of another Thatcher which means she'll stick up for her country.
I think Obama will win :)
I want Hilary!
I think either way it will be very interesting. First black president or first woman :O.
Obama because he's black, or at least that's the reason I've seen from most Americans.
Obama.
How is this a debate?
i'm not sure that the next american president is the right thing to discuss on a UK orientated forum.
I would think Obama. I don't pay to much attention to US politics but he seems like he knows what he's doing and lots of people seem to be supporting him.
DONT VOTE FOR BLONDE PRESIDENT
Blonde President Enter's = Win's = Help Irag = Cause WW3 = Cause All World Capital's to be Destoryed = Death to All = Cause World Nuclear War One = Nuclear Missle's Fired = 9/11 Two = Blonde President Surive's = Reval's Her/Him self as The Anti-christ = Earth is Taken over = Earth will be Hell = New Race's Will Start = God Fight Devil = God Win's = Human Race is Reborn = Blonde President enter's Again = Win's = Repeat
Hopefully Obama. Just cause his name is the hardest to say :)
Burak Obama
this debate isn't relevant to half of us, lol.
I want Hilary to win, mainly because shes a woman (girl power n all) and also because i think shes a very strong person (lets face it she put up with all Bills affairs) and if she wants something doing, im pretty sure she'll get it.
Yes, although most of the time they are just laughed at.:P
I love George Bush though shame he has to go, i would love to take that guy out for a drink some time, i bet hes hilarious.
I bet the Iranians disagree :P.Quote:

I was going for Hillary at the start but Obama seems strong.
I do hate the people who say 'Cos he's black' and 'Cos she's a women' - Colour and Sex don't make you good at a job.
No, but sometimes it can help. Plus, its a fact that hilary will get a proportion of her votes from women because women want a femal president, and Obama will get a proportion of his votes from black people because they want a black president. Nevermind any other factors, like good policies etc..
Hilary masterminded Bill's time at the top, and he did alright although saying that. I'm not sexist in anyway but the only female politician to make it to the top is Margerat Thatcher and look how Britain ended up then...
I'm not saying this out of discrimination but I think it's still too soon for America to have a woman president, or a black president - especially since the KKK are still in operation...
The black guy because he's black and younger than Hilary.
Don't mean to offend but ye.
the KKK is just pathetic now. they don't actually do anything, they just have meetings and try to shock people. saying we shouldnt have a black president because of the KKK is like saying we shouldn't let little boys outside because NAMBLA (a real organization, North American Man-Boy Love Association, which believes in letting men have sex with children) still has members.
if you're ever going to get rid of things like the KKK, you have to have these major movements and let things progress -- or else they will have won. you have to make all their objectives fail for them to fade away.
Obama to win. He has a big voice and he 100 percent deserves to be the next
USA President. Black pepole have been a lot through the past.
I'd like to see a black president to show how much the world has changed since MLK Jnrs day. When Black people where killed for basically doing anything. Though I'd also like to a girl win president.
Personally, I'd like Obama
Obama ftw!
He just seems like the right guy who won't be a push over!
I think Obama will be the next president, but if it was just me who made the decision i'd choose Ron Paul.
And this is why: http://youtube.com/watch?v=PVKSfwfy0h8
I hate to destroy the Socialist lie you have been told about Margerat Thatcher, but she saved Britain. The reason why we now have a good economy which has grown is because of the Thatcher Government. She also destroyed the Trade Unions which were controlling the Governments at the time.
If you say she closed the mines, well yes, she had to. You cannot keep a industry which is losing money alive.

Sorry if its posted but:
Its actually quite interesting, whoever becomes the president, a new barrier will be broken. If hillary become president, she'll be the first woman, if obama becomes president, he will be the first african american.
I guess hilary clinton
Hilary and Obama aren't standing for president yet, they're both Democrats, and only one of the two can represent the Democrats in the elections. On the other side [Republicans] they'll almost definitely be represented by John Mccain, so it'll be John McCain vs a Democrat (Either Hilary or Obama) in the elections. McCain is unlikely to set any remarkable feats if he became president, he could possibly go for 'Oldest US president' though :P
obama won 2 more yesterday! hillary would really need to come back and get all the rest if she's going to win, and that's highly unlikely! so it's pretty much DEFINITE that barack obama is going to be the next president of the united states.
which im glad. i dont hate hillary, but she's for the war, and i will never ever ever ever be able to vote for someone who's for the iraq war.
there is no way in hell john mccain would win against obama in the general election, however he could DEFINITELY beat hillary. because conservatives hate mccain, but they hate hillary even more. but most conservatives like obama more than mccain.
I hope Hiliary takes Texas and the next few big states next, I think she will as they are the states which cast a shadow over the Obama Camp. There haven't really been many true conservatives in this contest which is a shame but seeing the Iraq saga over Bush that's not suprising.
I think Barak Obama has no substance and thinks he's the next MLK in the way he talks, I would like to see McCain and Clinton battle it out and then i'll make my mind up whom I support for the oval office :)
