Octavis Witcher Fourth-year media arts student

"I support Obama because he is a candidate of change. It's a little much having the Bush-Clinton fraternity in the White House for so long. It would be nice to have someone new."

Hakim Porter Third-year political science student

"I support Obama because he advocates change. He seems more for the people than for corporations."

Lauren Falohun Second-year sports and entertainment management student

"Obama, partially because I wouldn't mind seeing the first black president."

Jacob Berry Fourth-year management student "I'd like to see Barack win on the democratic side. He has a lot of energy and seems really smart. I think he's a good candidate; I'm not a Democrat, but if one wins, I think he'd be a really good choice."

Meredith Martin Third-year sports and entertainment management student

"I'm Republican but I'd like to see Edwards. I feel like he is more conservative and that Hillary and Obama use celebrity to their advantage too much."

Bryan Miller Second-year business student

"I'd like to see Hillary Clinton win, because I feel like the Republican candidates have the greatest chance to defeat her."

Neha Patel First-year pharmacy student

"I like Clinton. I think she's experienced and knows what she is doing. She is the most prepared."

Liam Golightley Fourth-year international business student

"Obama. It would be good to have something new. He isn't as experienced in Washington, which is good."

Artisa Ricks Second-year broadcast journalism student

"I'm still deciding. I just saw Michelle Obama, so I'm leaning towards Obama. She had a big impact - although I'm still not decided."

Dell Castillo Third-year visual communications student

"Obama. I think he's the most genuine candidate and in the debate he showed he wouldn't back down. He showed vision and toughness for a presidential candidate."
