This is a serious question i have, can somebody please tell me what all the hype is over Barack Obama?? I have NEVER heard of the guy until maybe 6 months ago. The media seems to love this guy, he's everywhere, he has this rock star appeal, yet i have no idea what all this hype is over! Am i missing something?
What does he stand for?
What has he done to draw all this attention to himself?
Why is the media drooling all over him?
It sounds like he's gonna run for president in 2008, but for the life of me i cant figure out what all this hooplah is about?
I'm dead serious, not trying to be a wise ass, can someone please tell me something, anything, that this guy stands for? What are his views?
He seems like a solid guy, well spoken and such. But why all the hype??
What has he done thats so great and warrents all this atention?
