I don't trust that Barack Hussein Obama isn't a terrorist in disguise hijacking this country from within. An evil aura surrounds this man. I fear for this country's survival if he gets elected.

That is simply not true. Perhaps you don't understand what open mindedness means (from your post, I seriously doubt it). Open mindedness requires that you see things from another persons point of view... even if it's one that you don't agree with. Forcing other people to do what you want to do to promote liberal (or conservative) ideologies - because you think your ideas are better - is not "open minded."

Okay, now you're starting to sound like a sanctimonious hypocrite. Making blanket generalizations about a group of people? Yeah, you're "open minded."

I do not think Obama is a terrorist, nor is he evil. I DO think he has allowed himself to be influenced heavily by marxist elites who like to stay hidden in the background. They have craftily used him as a front for their very liberal America-hating agendas. He seems to be a nice man, but is very much a fool, has poor judgment and next to nil on possessing any insight, perception or wisdom about life. He is a wonderful orator, is very comfortable using his plethora of "pretty" nuanced words/phrases; but this will not save a nation in crisis. His head is in the clouds, his agendas will destroy the country, and he is simply not based in reality. I, too, fear for this country's survival if he is elected.

In reality liberals are the LEAST TOLERANT people in our society today. They rely on emotion and will not tolerate conservate viewpoints. If you state an opposing view they shout racist or worst to stop the rational argument. They don't want to debate they want to oppress.

What scares me most about Obama is that my father was a Marxist and I know what and how they think. I grew up with it. It's that road to hell that's paved with good intentions.

Excellent post and so true. I think he is a likable person and I understand his appeal. However, he is more concerned with pleasing his far left following than putting his country first.

I am not too worried if he is elected because I think he will never be reelected for a second term when people wakeup and realize what a puppet he is.
