YouTube - Misconceptions of Obama fuel Republican campaign - 13 Oct 08

Here is a video from a Palin rally held on Monday. This is not for the weak hearted liberals as it will make them cry.

What would you do if you ran across somebody of this caliber?

best line from video:
Hate and Fear are still powerful forces in American society..

I wonder what the interviewed people would think if they knew they were on al jazeera

Is it wrong that I laughed when the first woman said she's afraid that "the black" will take over? I think that's going to be my status for a while, afraid that the black will take over.

I was sad to find out that this town is closer to Pittsburgh than any other major city. Sadly, I don't think the gene pool is very deep there.

I think she is related to the lady that said Obama is an Arab but with better hair.

I laughed too b/c this lady is just ignorant.

This is scary and I live in an area where people actually have the same type of mentality but I just keep to myself.... it's pretty sad.

This election has been a gauge for how far we have really come along as a nation in racial and religious tolerance.

The results are very alarming and rather than scary, I just find them very sad.

Agee. There are many people like these. Now-a-days, it is fashionable to bash Hollywood types etc, bash intellectuals, but morons like these get left out.

Everyone has a right to their opinions. I don't criticize them. Even though I am supporting Obama, I really don't care what others have to say. I take it with a grain of salt. "Don't sweat the little things."
