Questions for Obama supporters

Does Barack Obama remind you of JFK?

Does Michelle Obama remind you of Jackie Kennedy?

Does the Obama family remind you of the Kennedy family?

OK, I read the text before the title, so I should say I'm not an Obama supporter, but yes he does. In that cult of personality thing he has going.

Michelle Obama reminds me of Jackie because she's got a similar elegance about her and she's young. Her hair is similar, too. Barack Obama doesn't remind me of Kennedy really. But of course we know his camp is explicitly making the association between him and Kennedy, as we saw in Carolyn Kennedy's speech at the convention.

The youthfulness is the major similarity, that and Obama will probably get shot and killed in office too.

I wouldn't be terribly surprised, but why would you think so? I'm thinking along the lines of reactionary right-wing cabin-dweller as opposed to mafia hit.

Whoever it is, it will appear to just be some right-wing loner. Actually I guess a few people got arrested at the DNC, for making threats or something with guns, they showed pictures of them, sure enough they appeared to be backwoods rednecks.

No, and if he did I probably wouldn't be voting for him.

Not at all.

I think the only real similarity is the youthfulness, charm/good looks and celebrity-like reputation that's been generated.

Not really. Hate to jump on the bandwagon here, but I also think he's only similar in the way that he charms people. As for youth, it kind of relates, but Kennedy was actually younger than Obama.
