it's completely relavant to the discussion, you progressives can't mock JM for his age and health and then ignore BO's own family history and the fact that BO is the one who has still yet to open HIS MEDICAL RECORDS.
Regardless if it's relevant, the death of Obama's mother was a tragedy, and should be addressed with sensitivity. If you can't manage that, then I reserve the right to call you on it for your insensitivity and callousness.
And it's relevance is questionable, since it was ovarian cancer. Discussion of McCain's health and age isn't mockery. The health and resilience of Presidential candidates is a legitimate concern to voters. While complete medical histories of both candidates would be informative, their current health issues are of more relevance. Obama's age versus McCain's age is a critical aspect of comparing their current health status.

Honestly, I can trust a Harvard and Columbia grad in solving our economic problems more than I can with a grad from the Naval Academy or the University of Idaho; although I mean no offense so anyone who graduated from there.

Whether or not you want to admit it, Obama has plenty of life experience from working as community organizer in the south side of Chicago; an inter-city neighborhood. As for Sarah Palin, the only life experiences she has are limited to a small town in Alaska with a population of only 6,500 people. I have no idea how she can relate to anyone in the lower 48 states.
pray do tell, does BO , with 1 1/2 years of 'experience' before he started running for leader of the free world have
a. under
b. over
the far more foreign and domestic policy experience than Palin could ever have.
can you tell me if he's even held a meeting on the committee he's on in his vast 1 1/2 years of experience?

he was no professor but a Lecurer at the University.

I'm in my mid 30's and I've payed attn. to politics and voted my whole life and I've never heard of "community organizer" as a qualification for leader of the free world. what did he do as such a community organizer? work with ACORN who's now being investigated by the feds. He gave money to ACORN, defended them in court, and was endorsed by them. HHHMMM

I have no idea how anyone can relate to a big city politician like him.

I sincerly thank you, along with the rest of the Obots, for answering the question of why is it that old fart mccain has released his records and young vibrant Oblahma hasn't.

no I'm asking you to think for once, he's an empty suit and you've all been seduced by the MSM. Nobody yet has answered my questions.

I'd rather an empty suit who chooses and listens to advisors wisely than a suit full of BS & Lies.
