Why do I support Barack Obama?

What Barack Obama has that John McCain doesn't is that Obama knows what the people want. Actually he knows what the people deserve. Barack Obama has a confident, wise attitude when it comes to conflicts the United States is facing today. One of the most important issues we are facing today is the economy. The economy has effected millions of citizens living in the United States. How? Gas prices have been raised to an all-time high. The effects from high gas prices have given people less money to spend which is hurting our economy. Food prices have gone up from gas prices. When there is less consumption of food items being purchased. Food prices will be raised in order to probably pay off debts that haven't been paid or help the store not shut down due to lack of business. Right now here in the South Eastern Pennsylvania the highest gas price for regular is $4.09. Barack Obama will spark our economy to reach the top again by cutting income taxes by $1,000 for working families to offset the payroll tax they pay. Barack Obama wants to eliminateIncome Taxes for Seniors Making Less than $50,000. Barack Obama will eliminate income taxation for all seniors making less than $50,000 per year. This proposal will eliminate income taxes for 7 million seniors and provide these seniors with an average savings of $1,400 each year. Under the Obama-Biden plan, 27 million American seniors will also not need to file an income tax return. On the other John McCain will be telling oil producing countries and oil speculators that our dependence on foreign oil will come to an end. The effect of this will lower prices at the pump. What everyone knows is that most of our oil comes from countries. For example Saudi Arabia is one of the countries. The point is that John McCain wants to make us pay more to help the world while they sit back and wait. In a different world Barack Obama wants to take action by helping us pay less instead of more. The point is that Barack Obama wants to help each one of us by listening to us. Then John McCain just wants to help George Bush finish what he started. This is why I suport Barack Obama because we need to take another path to reach success.
