Obama v Clinton: My Vote

Obama Positives:
-Simply his name and his look my change the way Muslims look at America
-May have the ability to change politics as usual
also:
-Inspirational: gets more (young) people involved
-Was against Iraq from the beginning: shows good judgement

Clinton Positives:
-Proven leader: good job for NY
-If another military crisis during general election, cannot lose b.c. of "inexperience"
-a plan for true universal healthcare
-proven to have worked on a bi-partisan basis

My key issues: universal healthcare, America's perception to the world, ...

I went with Obama. Why? Either has a good chance to win in November (not that McCain would be nearly as bad as most Republicans) but I figured why not? If he could be a major agent for change (i.e. trully change politics as usual) I am willing to take a chance.
