Republicans and Obama haters are a mess.
From the tone of your post you qualify as a BIGGER hater than any Bush loving Republican. Your venom is just as bad as theirs except they have guns and bibles that they can cling to. I don't want to know what you cling to. You make me ashamed to be a Democrat.

I'm not from the Chicago area, so I can't list any off the top of my head. But Google is readily available if you're sincerely interested in finding out.

What makes him qualified to be the commander in chief?
Ability, hard work, exceptional intellect, good judgement, and an apparent love of America and its people. All the things that have been utterly absent from the Oval Office for a number of years now.

Can you name just one thing he has done in his ENTIRE life that has prepared him to be the commander in chief?
I could name a lot more than one, but since that's all you've asked for...

His in-depth study and grasp of the Constitution and reputation as a Constitutional scholar.

The "ENLIGHTENED" one painting everyone with a big brush. I don't understand these left-wingers at times, they are just as bad as the right-wingers.

Extremists at both ends of the spectrum tend to be irrational.

why do you bother posting? no one takes you seriously. I crushed your venom in several threads and when you can't defend your position, you ignore people. grow up.

I don't know what part of my post was angry. I honestly think both candidates are idiots, but I am not angry at either of them. I am unsure of what you need me to explain. everything I posted is pretty much common knowledge. if you don't know that he was handed his "elected" position, then do some research on the actual election. if it wasn't for people dropping out of the race, he wouldn't have been elected.

Can you explain where you came up with your justifications?

Thanks for sharing!

I have read everything about his community organizer days, and this is the best:

Obama forged path as Chicago community organizer - Los Angeles Times (http://www.latimes.com/news/nationworld/nation/ny-usobam025598601mar02,1,6933215,full.story - broken link)

Nothing in these list what he was able to accomplish as a community organizer

Quote:
Ability, hard work, exceptional intellect, good judgement, and an apparent love of America and its people. All the things that have been utterly absent from the Oval Office for a number of years now.
What shows that he can provide these things? Has he done anything in his ENTIRE life to indicate that he can provide these things?

He voted for FISA that will shred the 4th amendment, I am not sure that he gives a crap about the constitution, if he did he would have voted against that Bill that allowed the president to basically spy on Americans without a warrant.

This part:

he basically ran unopposed. he became a community organizer because he didn't want a real job. in fact, I don't know of any real job he has had in his entire life. john wayne gacy was also a community organizer for the democrat party in chicago. is he trying to repair the rift between the left and the right by having the most liberal voting record in congress?

Explain how all of what you claim is "common knowledge."

Quote:

You'll need to support your assertion with more than your words. You're making a claim. Now, back it up.

I think you need to look up the definition of "anger." here is a link to the 2004 senate race. here is a summary. obama was losing in democrat primaries until a domestic abuse scandal hurt the man who he was running against. in the general election, the republican he was running against dropped out. 3 months before the election, the republicans put alan keys out there. keys is from maryland and didn't stand a chance.


United States Senate election in Illinois, 2004 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
