Cambodian-Americans in Virginia and Maryland have different political stances in supporting presidential hopefuls senators John McCain and Barack Obama.

"We want the US to help Cambodians with humanitarianism and trade," said Tom Keo, a Virginia businessman who favors McCain, a Republican, for his experience.

Tung Yap, president of the group Cambodian-Americans for Human Rights and Democracy, said he supported Obama, the Democratic hopeful.

"For me, I want to see a new leader, like other Americans who do not want to see the same leaders weaken the economy," he said.

Virginia resident Mok Yorn said he supported McCain, "as he has more experience, and helped fight communists a lot, even in Cambodia."

Washington area businessman Chamroeun Muoy, who supports McCain, said Obama has a lot of support by the young, while McCain has a lot of support from those over the age of 30.

"A win or loss for McCain depends on how he can explain economics to," Chamroeun Muoy said.

As a Cambodian people, I will never buy Thai products, I will never use Thai service or even visit Thai.

Thai is GREEDY to get Khmer Territory.

Just in case you fail to see the trend, many sucessful business companies are more likely to place their trust in the hand of a seventy or over and not the new young and inexperience. Shouldn't America do the same? Seventy is the new fifty, they said in the high- developing world. Does trust matter most? you bet your life!

Michelle Is very nasty bitch racist. She made comments in her racist Church about the non black.
Come on' Barack HUSSEN Obama, President of the USA? This guy Obama lies and he says whatever people want to hear.


Put this guy in the White House he will shower Africa and the country of his biological Father, the father who never raised him, and don't ever expect this guy will see Cambodia. His father was Muslim and why is she Obama flip flopping about his religion?

John McCain will choose a young Vice President soon. I think the Vice Pre. of McCain is about 42 years old and he is a native Indian American(American Indian and White). And Obama will select Former General Clark, because Obama has no experinces with Military.
