I find it disturbing that Obama, associated with that alleged change we can believe in, changes his own beliefs about a long-time friend who wed Obama to his wife and baptized his children. This change of Obama's mind was brought on because of popular opinion, and that's not a change you should believe in.

20 years of friendship to Reverend Wright equals a significant impact on Obama, his family, and their past experiences, and a sudden change of heart brought on by external opinions is not a change to believe in. Remember that next time you see the slogan, "A change to believe in", that the hardest change to make is one contradicting long-term experience, and keep Reverend Wright's face in mind when you think about that change and see those slogans.
I support Hillary Clinton, Woot

Since you are not a citizen why are you worried about it anyway?
I would be worried about making my own country better. Since I assume you live in the U.S. So you are either a lpr(green card holder) or here on a visa.

Yea but Obama Salami IS just another form or Wright, even has the same DNA. He only parted from the racist pig hate monger when he started losing points because of him. Remember they were best friends for 23 years. People dont walk away from 23 year old friendships. You watch. The day after Salami is elected (God forbid) he will be talking to Wright again and attending his racist church again. Mark my words.

And for the 12th time, just because some one has the intelligence to know what a bum Salami is does not automaticly mean they support Billery. And it also does not mean they support McAmnesty. Can the more intelligent among us just call them what they ALL are? Lying conniving corrupt clowns.

President Obama. That sounds so American like doesn't it. We will be the laughing stock of the world. It is kinda like a Joe Smith running for president of India among a nation of Patels or Japan in a nation of Hiroshi.

Dam your missile solo has internet access. Usually I would not respond but I just could not resist.
So I guess you have a Native American name? Since they are the original Americans.
So to be a true American requires a WASP name?
Rocket Scientist so you did a dna test on Obama?
So how much work have you done on the human genome project?

If Obama becomes POTUS our status in the world is most likely to rise. Are you aware that many in the world hate us? Many see us as an Empire. Not to say that their hate is justified or even correct. I am just pointing out your statement about being the laughing stock of the world is not true. Much of the world think we are a laughing stock now with Bush. I would explain world politics to you but from your post it would be a waste of my time.

His brillant new sign should say

Or how about the one with the misspelled word "judgment" on the front of his mic?

Real leader he is, he has divided not only a party but has brought back racial division to our country.

Wouldnt you hate those who hung you from the wall and left you dangling from your arms?? Sure you would.
I am sure you would love those who tortured you! He has every right to call them this.

As far as Obama, now that is a bigot.
