Obama Leads Republicans in White House Race
Democratic Candidate Barack Obama is the top 2008 presidential contender in the United States, according to a poll by Zogby International.
At least 46 percent of respondents would support him in head-to-head contests against the top prospective Republican nominees.
And this Republican is loving it!
Obama holds a three-point edge over Arizona senator John McCain, a six-point lead over former New York City mayor Rudy Giuliani, and a 17-point advantage over both former Massachusetts governor Mitt Romney and actor and former Tennessee senator Fred Thompson.
On May 27, the Black senator from Illinois pledged to provide proper assistance for active duty soldiers, declaring, "We’re falling far short in addressing the mental health care needs of these heroes, and that’s inexcusable. I believe strongly that there is a sacred trust between this country and those who serve it. That trust begins the moment a service member signs on and lasts the duration of his or her life."
