38. How is that biblical?
I'm not trying to make him sound like a savior because I certainly don't believe that. I do like Obama a lot, but to be honest, he's my fourth choice, LOL! (My first choice didn't run and my second and third choices dropped out.)

I'm 40 years old. I have never seen people - especially young people - feel so passionate about politics. Seriously ... I've NEVER seen anything like this. It amazes me. I wasn't around for JFK and RFK, but I've been told that young people had similar reactions to them, so that's why I made the "40 years" comment. It wasn't meant to be a statement about "a savior arriving after 40 long years" - LOL! I just don't understand why it was a good thing for the Kennedys to inspire people, but it's a bad thing for Obama to inspire people. :shrug:

Regardless of who gets the nomination, isn't it a good thing to have enthusiastic young people getting involved in politics and joining the Democratic party?
