Exactly, and the same people on this forum who are criticizing the Obama campaign for that would have been calling him a Muslim if those ladies were put front and center....

The debate about Bush is that his IQ could be 98. But then some say that that is not true. After listening to him, a republican, I can say that I would tend to think it was lower.

How do I feel about Obama? I feel fine, thank you ... and intend to vote for him in November.

I am a 49 year old white woman whose family is comprised of humans from all over the globe, so I guess the whole race thing baffles me. Go Obama.

Copping that nihilist attitude is tempting, but accomplishes just that: nothing.
Rejecting this "useless" election and its "puppet" players is, IMHO, identifying *yourself* as part of the problem.
I've seen true good happen--first-hand--from working for change.
Trilaterals, Council on Foreign Relations, Bilderberg Group all in favor of One World Order. McCain and Obama may have different routes but their end goals are the same - one international legal system, one trading bloc, one international military, one international identity, one monetary system, advancement of the plan by centralized education control and communication controls. They'll keep things so topsy-turvy with one big controversial issue after another that you'll be begging the government to take care of you to get some relief --- the socialist welfare state.

They will start with an American Union like the European Union and it will go on from there. It's not coincidence that Obama and McCain are on the same side of the border issue and it has absolutely nothing to do with "being charitable" to illegal immigrants who want to work and everything to do with monetary/power benefit for the people who pull their strings.

And so yes, sometimes they become puppets. But in order to run for President you have to do things that you feel will get you elected. And even then you end up in Catch 22s.
May I ask you how you think a person who was a virtual unknown outside of Chicago, with no track record and unknown stances on issues, is now the Democrat nominee for President? Perhaps you might do a little research into how Jimmy Carter came from out of nowhere to be a candidate for President and who was backing him.

Perhaps you might also wonder how John McCain, who went from having no money and no chance in h***, became the Republican nominee. I can reasonably surmise it had nothing to do with any straight talk express.

Very true! The canidates who aren't in that camp rarely make it to the debate stage much less the conventions!

Big donors and lobbyists! Or is it your thought that everything they do is out of their own heads and what they truely believe to be in the best interests of the country and it's people?
