    Only an idiot tries to poison the pot this way. Let him try before you seek to condemn him.

    Answered the super delegates

    I will blame the Super Delegates, as THEY, are the ones who will elect Him into Office, NOT you or I...........Look at the past two Presidential Races...........Popular Vote was against Bush, But, The Electorial College elected him...............

    We the People, can only blame ourselves because we LET these Politicans change the laws to give them an advantage in legally fixing an election.............
    I remember when it was ONLY by Popular Vote, remember when you HAD to show proof of Citizenship, remember when the MEDIA could not forcast on elections until the Last Polling office closed, remember when elections were FAIR................NOT FIXED

    I will blame the open minded individuals that searched for the truth and found it in time to NOT vote for Obama, that did not follow the Norm of the Media , the Entertainers, the Corrupt Politicans......and I will rejoyce in the fact that The People Won, that they showed Wisdom, not to be one of the Sheep following the Pied Piper to extermination.........

    I will blame the mindless drones who voted for him, specifically because of the fact of 1) he's a black man. and 2) because he's not republican.

    Those are the 2 weakest arguements anyone can make. Oh well, that and John McCain is old. So what? All of our presidents except 2 or 3 have been old men. Thats why we elect them, because with their age comes priceless years of experience.

    Barak Obama is an extremely arrogant man, who is more likely to cause wars rather than reduce them... Other countries will see his weakness, and take advantage of it... Because he's a democrat, and will inevitably reduce our military to next to nothing, like Clinton did.
    While Clinton was in office... the deaths among actively serving US Military members was DOUBLE what it is while George W. Bush is in office.
    Don't believe me? http://www.fas.org/sgp/crs/na...
    There you go.
    Clinton years (1993-2000): 14,000 deaths
    George W years (2001-2006): 7,932 deaths
    These figuresmean that the loss from the two latest conflicts in the Middle East are LESS than the loss of military personnel during Bill Clinton's
    presidency; when America wasn't even involved in a war!

    I'm not saying the same for Obama because obviously we don't know....
    However, I've listened to both of these men speak ...

    and I can tell you this,

    Obama doesn't want to lead this nation.... He wants to rule it.

    Obama is going to be an excellent President. McCain will be another abysmal embarrassment.

    what is your point? Religion should have absolutely nothing to do with our Politics. Isn't that what American is about? Freedom. To worship as you choose. Besides, this is a bit stretched as far as realism. What Obama is saying is true.
  • raves +1   [-] JC ~ BCWYAFYMJGI replied to jujubee
    Black Liberation Theology is not a religion but a Liberation doctrine hidden within the the vale of faith. Did you even watch the videos?

    it will be the undecided, super delegates or the media. He never makes a mistake everyone is just picking on him and playing the race card!
  • raves +4   [-] by i-love politics

    Answered The media

    Definitely - the liberal media - for not exposing Barack Obama for what he really is and what he stands for.
    * I just don't think Obama is American enough.
    Born to a Kenyan father who never became a citizen, later brought up by his step father from Indonesia. It's nothing against him as a person. But it takes more than a birth certificate or naturalization papers to be an American. I do not believe Barack Obama shares the same values as mainstream America.
    In my opinion, a first-generation American isn't American enough to be our President.
    Then there's the faith thing.
    * How can Obama state he was never a Muslim?
    OK, maybe he is no longer a Muslim, but born to a Muslim father (Barack Hussein Obama, Sr.) he had to start out as a Muslim boy.
    That's what I think.

    "None of the above" isn't an answer.

    If he wins, I seriously doubt he's going to screw things up. But on the off chance that he did screw things up, it would be his own damn fault.
  • raves +3 -1 [-] JC ~ BCWYAFYMJGI replied to Qit el-Remel
    What has he done to show you he would not mess up?
    His choice in faith?
    His choice in friends?
    Or his choice in how he works with?
  • raves     [-] Qit el-Remel replied to JC ~ BCWYAFYMJGI
    IMO, the choice is between Obama, who MIGHT screw up...and McCain, who's guaranteed to. (And way to imply all of the tired old smears without actually trotting them out...)
  • raves +3   [-] JC ~ BCWYAFYMJGI replied to Qit el-Remel
    What smear are you talking about?
    The man history, choices and character are all valid point.
    He has no great works of which to speak of unless you count his books.
    So what do you base your decision on?

    A lot of good it did. They kept their heads in the sand. I wonder how many will admit they voted for him when the shit hits the fan...?

    As an ex-Democrate, I can honestly say after all these years of voting the Democratic ticket, who in their infinite wisdom to protect and serve (yea right!!) the poor, and middle class citizens of America, are now only the party of the MINORITIES, and INTEREST's of FORIEGNER'S to take over of our INDUSTRIES that being the case why after all these years are the Poor still poor and the Middle-Class losing all their GOOD Paying Jobs, and Factories to FOREIGN CONGLOMERATES? Think about it, they (politicians) only care about their ass's NOT OUR's. STAND -UP AMERICA fight for your rights, and Vote for only those who want to keep American Jobs here in AMERICA.

    At the level of POTUS the only one to blame is themselves. Congress can help or detract, but its very lonely at the top. No excuses.
