I am a registered independent. I’ve been a registered independent for 20 years. I have voted ever since I was old enough to. I vote the candidate not the party. I rely on media, like most of us. But I do not take one source as gospel. I don’t discuss politics much as I am not in the field professionally and it tends to flair up to arguments even in the friendliest conversation. But I thought this was amusing. It just so happened that every time I asked someone what they liked about Obama they all said the same thing. “He’s for change” I’d ask, “ okay what does that mean?” Most would respond that it was a change from Bush. When I would remind someone that Bush was not running for president, some would dismissive add we need a fresh face or something similar or it would become an over generalized attack on republicans. Then I found this little gem. Yes it is one sided (but so is everything film maker Michael Moore put together) But it was nice to see something like this after 2 years of the entire broadcast media creaming themselves over the Obamas. This IS NOT, in my opinion, a blast of how "stupid" Obama voters are, but IT IS a real testament to the absolute power of mass media
