Please. Have you been there? I have a "dashboard" entry just like they do, only my face is there instead of their logo. It doesn't cost anything, just an email address. They could remove it, and you can report it if you like, but they have chosen not to. There are literally thousands and thousands of individual and group pages just like theirs and mine.

Yes, I've been there. My point - it's OBAMA's official website. They can control WHO and WHAT is posted there! If they wanted it removed, they would remove. They haven't. By not removing it, they are fulling accepting it....

Oh. Because your point earlier was that it was a paid advertisement that the campaign put up. They actually do not control who and what is posted, but yes, they can remove posts and groups if they like.

The Obama campaign believes in free speech and is not policing the groups on its site for opinions they do not agree with.

When you give a speech saying you want to improve race relations, and you do nothing to denounce a racially motivated group, you look like a hypocrite!

Sad thing is you still believe. What is happening to this country?
Oh Dear Lord in Heaven....Please help make these Clinton supporters realize that the Clintons really don't care about us...all they care about is their political power and dynasty and will destroy whoever or whatever (DNC) gets in their way.

I'm a undecided voter
She is associated with a hate group! Two of the top members are Bill and Geraldine Ferraro!

And she's married to a husband who is a liar and cheater! That's way (lying) his was impeached! And then everyone talks about guilt by association with Obama. Then she is guilty too but staying married to him!

But some of us aren't Clinton, Obama, Bush, or McCain supporters. Oh Dear Lord in Heaven, please don't let Obama be the anti-christ!

Obama's speech today in Charlotte was not to a filled to capacity Grady Cole Center. Obama gave the abreviated version of his campaign stump speech. He drew the usual hoots and hollars from a raucious crowd from "DA HOOD" that was present. Then he took questions for a few minutes. The questions about Wright appeared to stun him. He said he would not turn against his friend even though he disagreed with him. He tried to spin one question about the influence of a pastor into something rambling about Jerry Falwell and Jim Bakker. He left so fast that Charlotte Black Caucus members who were to meet him were left watching the Secret Service file past them and out of the doors.

Can you provide a link to the list of endorsements on his official website that you are referring to? Did you actually see them yourself?
