I know McCain will win....Doesnt matter if he is a Citizen of the U.S. in Obama’s heart he is a citizen of the world...discribes him fully....not committed to anything but himself!
What is a Princeton grad doing? She must be way too “intimidating” by that I mean she has a big chip on her shoulder “speaks her mind” a la Michelle....
It may be that her crushing obsession with race is holding her back from applying her mind and energy! Black leaders exploit this obsessive nature to continue their empowerment, even encouraging the slaughter of alive unborn black children to keep women and men on the ‘plantation’.
Huh? Biden would become President. And if for some reason he couldn't sue, San Fran Nan, Nancy Pelosi as Speaker of the House, would become President.
Of course, Hillary and Bill would own the democrat party, but we'd still have to live out the rest of the term with Biden or Pelosi.

I almost feel sorry for her, too, because she does sound like a sincere and well-meaning woman. One thing that struck me, though, was her frustration that the younger black people today, including her own son, don’t “get” it; they don’t understand the oppression that she felt growing up. They haven’t experienced the struggles of their parents’ generation.
Um, that’s a good thing, isn’t it???
I don't know a thing about black culture. It's a closely guarded secret. You have to live it, apparently.
Black culture appears amoral to me, however. Just a guess.
I tell em I feel no guilt. My people were fighting commies....they discriminate against me by assuming I come from a long line of slaveowners....and they are dead wrong...my people left Russia after the GD commies fought the White Russians.........so the blacks and their grievances can go tell it somewhere else! There dad wasn’t in a concentration camp as a boy so they can just shut up
Young people have 10 times the energy as she does. They work 15 hour days volunteering for Obama. They don't expect a lot of finery or compensation. This isn't a conspiracy against old people.
This isn’t sad. It’s manipulative.
I read the whole article, expecting to see a downtroden true-believer who genuinely got dealt a bad hand in life and was falsely lead to buy into the hope/hype. But no. This is a Princeton-educated woman who views life through race-colored lenses all to push an agenda, and more likely than not, to garner attention for herself as a “Joe the Plumber” type personality.
And as an aside, it sounds like her boyfriend is secretly voting for McCain.
This is the most MANIPULATIVE and PHONY thing I’ve read all day.
The truly sad thing is that had McCain been born ‘black’ she would gladly follow him to the end of the world and back.
Well I did find something she said that I agree with (speaking of some of the younger people she works with “”Some of them could use some home training,” I thought I was about the only one left who still used that expression.
I'm sorry, but welfare doesn't explain it. There could be Black politicians and community leaders who are pro-welfare but still pro-traditional morality. And considering how much the Democrat party depends on the Black vote, this actually gives them a certain amount of power in deciding what the Democrat and liberal agenda should be. Unfortunately, most Black politicians and community leaders refuse to use this power and instead are enthusiastic backers of decadent and immoral movements (abortion, euthenasia, "gay rights"). They could separate welfare from these movements but not only choose not to, but continue to champion the yoking of economic and moral liberalism together.
I'm afraid many Black preachers are going to have a lot to answer for some day.
I know folks who really can't identify the principles of the guy they intend to vote for. They're quite adamant that he's the right guy, though. This phenomenon isn't new, either. I see two elements supporting it:
1) Historical family voting patterns. "My daddy was a (dRat|Pubbie) and my granddad was before him ... so I'm voting (dRat|Pubbie).
2) MSM do everything they can to obscure the candidates' principles and the history of those principles. Instead, MSM cast the election as a personality contest combined with a "trick-or-treat" mentality. Voters are then enticed to support the designated nice-guy-who-will-give-them-goodies. This phenomenon plays out in the primaries, as well as the general election.
His civial security force will coming around for yo guns, yo freedom and yo money fool. Can’t have any of them rightwing whitey probelms, ya know. You all have been misunderstanding nobama, he ain’t sayin CHANGE he’s sayi CHAINS.
I’d be saddened for the woman in the article, but know she’d likely hate me for it. So, once again, I’m dragging out something that has made the rounds... for centuries.
THE POLITICS OF OBEDIENCE: THE DISCOURSE OF VOLUNTARY SERVITUDE

When we enslave ourselves, none can free us. We’ll even bite the hand that tries to spring the door open for us.
ACORN with Government subsidized employees...
Obama’s version of the Sturm Abteilung.
Every tyrant starts his own army if useful idiots. And they usually are among that same tyrants first victims...
They don’t know what they are voting for and they don’t care. He is “one of them” and that is all they need to know. I hate Howard Stern but I did hear his broadcast about going to Harlem and asking people on the street about Obama. Worse than sad. pathetic.
And after people burn out, they'll need the "cause" to help them.
