On The Spot: The Race for the Presidency

For this issue, we asked UCBA students which presidential candidate they prefer and why.

Morgan Woodson
“Obama, because besides the progress I think he has already made in his first four years, he has proven his reliability versus the unsure approaches I’ve seen from Romney. He’s a great debater and knows how to present to different crowds, never coming with a biased perception. And he’s very intellectual and uses his wits to formulate adequate solutions to the problems plaguing the U.S.”

Steve San
“I think Obama looks better according to the ads on Youtube and TV. However, the people who vote actually research and often ignore the mud slinging.”

Keven Jones
“I think Obama is having a better campaign because his views on getting more jobs in the U.S. in the incoming years is good for us Americans. Also he is telling how he has already brought so many jobs in and that’s why I think his campaign is proven to be better than opponent’s.”

Charlie Rowland
“Obama is probably considered to have a better campaign as of now. I think this is because 1) he is already President and has an existing pull in the election, and 2) he has more money to spend on his ads and promotions. However, I think Romney will win it somehow.”
