Why do you assume that's the only thing I'm looking at? First off I haven't decided who I'm going to vote for and I take all information into account. I simply stated that he has the presence of a leader and can speak like one.
Regardless if you like it or not, that is an extreemly important factor. I always look at their history and what they have done, but I am also smart enough to know that to be a world leader you need to have a certian presence. Otherwise no one will take them seriously. (take Bush for example, he's made this country look like we are all idiots).
I don't jump on any bandwagon, you can search my posts in the past and Iv'e always said I like Obama, even when people said he didn't have a chance. Hell even myself for a while didn't think he had a chance but he has proven me wrong. Of course it's still early though and wer have almost a year to go.
