    I just moved from San Bernardino

    A. Maybe, but asking that question really didn't enter my mind. Y'know, the main thing I've noticed about a lot of Obama supporters is that they are blissed out. Meaning, there's really nothing substantive about their candidate that is meaningful to them. They just like the whole Obama package, whether it is because of the likeablility or the skin color or the quality speaking skills ... they just like him. So when I've interviewed Obama folks before, I invariably ask them why they're voting for him and receive a lot of babble about "change" and "coming together", etc. And then I confront them with something concrete (in my case immigration b/c that's my issue) and it usually turns out that 1) they don't know his position, or 2) their views are diametrically opposed to his, or 3) both.

    B. My job takes me to San Bernardino several times a week. Rancho Cucamonga, Chino, Fontana, Victorville, Barstow, downtown SB ... I hit those locations frequently (I live in L.A.).

    I am.
    You have a reporters voice or a radio show hosts voice. You ask good questions and get very telling answers. So he works for Orange County in the electrical department? Maybe they need a little call.
