Obama has the integrity to make a fine president

I am an independent voter who recently took the opportunity to vote for Barack Obama in the Virginia primary.

I have no party allegiance, so I have no need to give politically correct reasons for voting choices.

The fact is that I believe that Obama has a sense of honor and integrity that is completely lacking in his opponent.

I don't know which of the four candidates I can support in the fall, but I know one candidate that I cannot. That candidate is Hillary Clinton.

I have read some of the glowing reasons that others like her and I respect their opinions, but I do not agree with them.

I hope that Obama goes on to win the nomination, and if that happens, I look forward to comparing his views with those of his Republican opponent.

If Clinton wins, I have no further work to do except to vote Republican in the fall.
