Why I'm Voting for Obama

A Concerned Citizen has his/her thorough list of reasons of why they are voting for Obama HERE.

Electability

Our number one priority as Democrats should be to make sure that a Republican does not win in November. Obama is our best chance of making sure this doesn't happen.

There has been record turnout in every primary and caucus thus far, and while Obama certainly can't take all the credit, a big reason so many people are showing up is because they're excited about what he represents. Presidents aren't elected by Democrats or Republicans, they're elected by the independents, and the majority of independents and Republicans who are voting in the Democratic primaries are voting for Obama. He is bringing people together, he is getting them fired up about politics, and he is literally expanding the party.
