First he will go back to Reverant Wright's church. Then he will probably become some type of political commentator.

3. Commit suicide and blame Bush or Palin for "killing him" - since Bush and palin at at fault for everything. During his funeral, Michelle Obama would say Americans are all racists for not electing Obama, who is black, and remind us of how "the US is a downright mean country in 2008".

I'd have voted for #2.

Marxism?!?! Come on!! Try Stalinist Communism, using Cuba as its role model!

On PBS, I hope. No one watches PBS, but every taxpayer idiot helps pay for PBS!

Or better yet, move to either Canada or the UK, work his way through the parliament and become Prime Minister Obama. With the attitudes I've seen people have in this forum and nation lately (esp. in the P.C. Northeast), I'll stick to my original assumption that I'll see a black European/Canadian Prime Minister way before an American President of African descent.

Haha, he should go to church and on his knees thank God for looking after him and not putting him in there now. Then he could buy some popcorn and sit back with the rest of us to watch the last act of a twelve-year catastrophe.

I think he'll be schooling plenty of people--but it will be from his seat in the White House.
