You really want Obama to be the next President of the U.S.A?

[Iamredliner]

How long has Obama had "political" experience? He had been a Senator for 143 days when he started his campaign. Hell, he can't even talk thesubject when his teleprompter malfunctions. He doesn't have a clue "either". I have never been a flag waver for Bush. However, I shutter to thinkwhat Gore would have (or not have) done on 9/11. We haven't had another incident on our soil. He' no great President, got suckered into Iraq but thereyou go. Hillary was complaining that it took him too long to go after Osama in Iraq. They were bashing him for dragging his feet. Whomever they put in there,they will just be a puppet anyway to what Congress deicides he needs to do. The President is powerless or darn near that by the way this is all set up. He canmake a decision on what to do with the next intern, and that's about it.

Bruce, The fact that Obama has only been in office a short time is a selling point to voters. They don't see him as a "career" politician.They see him as a common man, stepping up to take on uncommon job...

Yes you're correct, there hasn't been on US soil since 9-11-01. I think it may be the fact we're in Afghanistan fighting the Taliban. I feel goinginto Afghanistan was a good decision. Thats where the 9-11 attackers came from. I don't think going into Iraq was a good decision. I also think since wehave troops in Iraq, the zealots are going there and attacking our troops. Having them fight our armed and prepared troops is a more even fight than lettingthem attack unarmed civilians here. I don't feel the Iraqi people feel that way though. We're slugging it out with the terrorists in their backyard.

Saddam was a thug plain and simple. His people lived under his barbaric government for decades. He's gone, good riddance. Why are we still there? We'respending money that is desperately needed here.
The bridge collapse in Minnesota is a good example of our deteriorating infrastructure in the US.

Some Americans still feel like like the 2000 election was a rip off. Then on top of that he's voted into a second term to cross his t's and dot hisi's and he's squandered his time. He thinks it's OK to tap phone lines with out a warrant, outs a CIA agent, watches the economy go to crap, and soon and so on. His contribution to stand with the American people against terrorists? He gives up golf. That's the kind of things I'm not happy about.

I feel if McCain is elected this will just continue, and that's why the word change is being thrown around so much lately. I'm far from being aliberal, if anything I consider myself a moderate. Sure Obama may lack the experience, but that also may be the reason he is naive enough to think he maysomehow be able to make a difference.......

I think both of these guys, would be bad for our country. Mccain would be another 4 years of Bush. Obama, i just don't like or trust him. Obama withHillary, as a running mate would win. Obama without Hillary, McCain will beat him. That's why i vote for the 3rd party. Not going to win, but i feelbetter, about whom i've voted for.

These are the choices we voted for boys, excpet for gramps who is still holding out for Calvin Coolidge. I feel very uneasy about hearing talk aboutassassination on a board like this, it chills me and sends me back to the RFK days.

And "political experience"? Just like Randy said, we don't WANT that kind of experience, we've had it for the last eight years.

Insinuating a possible assassination on a President is a very bad thing to say!

[groggerbug]

Boy, am I glad I wasn't around for this one!!

50 Cent has no problem with talking about it

O'Reilly's comes across as the bigger pinhead with his lame attempt at ebonics

All thru this thread, there is one major difference between Obama and McCain that has not been addressed, forone reason or another. One that would scare the hell out of many if they knew all the implications.

This is the elephant in Obama's room:

His association with and influence from the Nation of Islam -yes, the one's who:

• Teach that Black people were the original humans

• Demand complete separation in a state or territory of their own

• Have a long, well-documented record of hate-filled and anti-Semitic rhetoric

• Sold bean pies on the street corners in LA to help fund the riots of 1992

While Obama has tried to down-play his association with NOI, it still remains strong.

How will this play out if he were to become president?

Frankly, I DON'T WANT TO KNOW!!!!

CHANGE "We can Believe in"
hhhhmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm!
"It's The End Of The World As We Know It. And I Feel Fine"

These are Biblical times and I'm not Religious. Read what they say about the Anti-Christ. I see some similarities like Very Charismatic, Middle Easterndescent, Coming out from nowhere and having a huge flock of followers, "Rock Star figure" BAAAAAAAAAAAANK ON IT BABBBBBBBBBEEEEEEEEEE!

Who knows for sure, I sure as hell don't. I just see things not getting that much better in the near future. I don't want anybody to claim I'mcalling anybody the Anti-Christ. I just don't like how things are politically as of now. Thanks for every body's comments. It's amazing howpolitics and religion can really make people crazy with words. I'm sorry if I stirred the pot on a stupid e-mail I got.
