And for anyone here who is starting a web business or doing anything regarding technology, it would be good to know that Obama is the only candidate who has laid out a technology plan.  Even as fast as technology and the internet advances, the US is way behind most other contemporary tech-driven countries, especially in terms of cellular and wireless advancements and providing high-speed internet to all citizens.

Obama voted FOR `net neutrality` which put very simply, is keeping the internet open and free for all communications and content.  The biggest issue here is that if the net is not kept neutral, corporations like the telcos, software and hardware providers can control what content you see or not.  This basically means that you couldn`t visit any site you wanted.  Or put in terms for many of us, possible customers might not be able to access our business websites.

McCain by contrast voted AGAINST net neutrality.  He wants to put the content power into the hands of the telcos, not in ours.  (Hillary didn`t vote on that issue because not all senators vote on every bill for several possible reasons.  I don`t happen to know why in this case.)

This is a grave issue for the future of business.  Obama will keep the net open.

In my opinion, we need a woman in the white house.. It`s time we give someone else a chance...
