23. His demeanor, voice, and attitude reminds me of one of my friends...
Edited on Wed Jan-30-08 10:20 PM by Levgreee
roommate for second year of college, History major, aspires to be a preacher. He was a religious(while I am Atheist), but also a liberal hippy.

I haven't talked to him in awhile, but I'm absolutely certain he's voting for Obama.

He was one of the nicest, most accepting people I met, and was always positive. I see these same traits in Obama, and know how valuable they are. Hope and acceptance are some of the most powerful forces out there, they help you bring closer to other people, and they help you bring yourself closer to righteousness(not in a religious sense).


Also, I believe he is extremely intelligent and has great judgment.

28. Also, he has a dorky streak which I like... I see it in his humor and what he says
Edited on Wed Jan-30-08 10:22 PM by Levgreee
I can imagine sort of what he was like hanging out with friends and college, how he is when he is not having to be seen by the whole public.

29. He drew a huge
diversified overflow crowd (older, young, black, white) in south central Kansas yesterday! We only had 1 day notice that he would be here and the amount of people for a small town was amazing.
