Point 1 - It is gratifying to see 13 y/o's interested in politics but Mitty's point is valid, your opinion doesn't matter. In 4 years the issues will have changed and so will you. 4 years after that ... same deal. Truthfully though .... you're about 12 years away from actually be significant (because then you can work for a campaign). And 20 years away from REALLY mattering to them (because then you have disposably income to donate).
Point 2 - Whether the candidate is Obama or Clinton you really should support 'em in the General unless you want 4 more years of the GOP.
Point 3 - Ethics reform is a red herring. There are seperation of powers in this country and the executive branch cannot reform the legislative.
Point 4 - Obama's position on foreign policy is not unique. In fact it is pretty much the standard Dem platform.
