Just because you attend a fancy school doesn't mean you are rich. Did his family pay for his entire education or was he there on loans/scholarship money? And I'm thinking a "community organizer" job pays squat.

I think Mrs. Obama was a driving force.

Behind every man.....

Her family also was a little better off.

Obama doesn't relate to any American issues, especially those who are struggling.

He was living in the priciest part of town a gated community, His grandmother was the VP of a bank How poor do you think he was living. .He attended a private prestigious school in Hawaii. There is no record of him working while attending college he also had extra money for his drug habit. Once out of college he wasnt on food stamps then either he had a law degree.


The poorest time of Obamas entire life was from birth to age of 6. Which is the time he refers to being on food stamps.

I would like to think that most Americans would prefer not to become morally bankrupt in order to achieve success.
I doubt theres a college in America that doesnt have some communists,and radicals,in what context was he involved with terrorism and corrupt Chicago politicians?
Maybe you should read up on Obama's earlier years to see where he connects with the man in the street and makes his own good fortune instead of listening to your hateful little fat psychopath Limbaugh.

Speaking of Limbaugh ,anyone Watch the Ed show?

Huh? I never commented on possible communists, radicals, etc. existing in American colleges. I commented on Obama's relationships, which include people like Bill Ayres, Van Jones, Rev. Wright and the corrupt Unions. Also, must mention the unsavory characters he has placed in his administration.

I agree, Obama connected with the down-trodden man on the streets of inter-city Chicago. He is still conecting with those same people and that is why he is working overtime to re-distribute the wealth. Unfortunately, he has no knowledge, skill or desire to connect with the masses.

By the way, I do no like Limbaugh. Limbaugh, far right, Obama ,far left. Neither one is good for our country.

I will, thank you. I would like to think that most Americans would prefer not to become morally bankrupt in order to achieve success.
What is truly sad is your jaded view which is completely based on Fox news clips, Youtube video's, internet forum chatter, and God knows what else. These accusations don't hold any water.

He wasn't born in the US. Um, he's provided a certificate of live birth and there are newspapers announcing his birth. Wait, maybe the liberal media knew on the day of his birth that he would be the Messiah so it was fabricated.

He's a Communist. Um, the communist party in the United States has a different opinion and I'm sure they know more about the subject then you and I combined. Did he know a communist or two? Maybe but I could care less. He's no more a Communist than the 70 years worth of Presidents that came before him.

He's a terrorist and pals around with the terrorists. Says who? Sarah Palin? That's a reliable source.

While I shurg a little bit, hearing him say that......
considering his background and how he was more or less middle class up until the early 90's I can believe that coming from him, 10 times more than I could believe W saying something like that and meaning it (W was born into $$$$$)
