I will agree that he is articulate and seems to have his heart in the right place, that would explain why he is politically moderate compared to most democrats. But there is one thing that he supports that would keep me from voting for him for any political office, let alone president.

That is a women's right to choose, I believe that no person with any morals or ethics whatsoever could condone abortion. And I feel that anyone who could support abortion must have motives beyond the issue. In the case of a politician those motives are political gain. And the fact that he has no problem with abortion speaks very clearly about his character: He will do what is necessary to get elected.
A lot of you may be pro-abortion for various reasons but at the core of this issue is humanity. It was inhumane to force black people into bondage. It was inhumane to subject them to Jim Crow laws. "Separate but equal" is just as ridiculous as "A women's right to choose." When our children look back at Roe vs. Wade they will ultimately see us in the same light as we see our ancestors, just a little bit barbaric.
