The country isn't ready for a black President, especially one from the Marxist left. Can you say 'reparations'?
Will we see from the MSM any mention of....
GRAVITAS
I guess being DemocRAT automatically gives you that.
Amazing how people go to Washington and lose touch with reality so quickly.
You left out the most important credentials of all: female, black. That's all it would take to create an avalanche of brain dead votes.
Lots of people. The fact that he is a black liberal who can speak pretty much sets him up as the unassailable candidate.
Anything you say against the man is something you SHOULD feel guilty about.
Or that's the atmosphere that's going to be pushed.
That contention will come under considerable scrutiny in the coming months.
What we do know is, Obama's birth name Baraka is Koranic for "blessed".
We also know his grandfather was a Muslim named Hussein, his father was a Muslim and his stepfather was a Muslim.
We also know that Obama spent at least two years attending a Muslim school in Indonesia (his book also says he spent two years in Catholic school).
The will be an issue, and it will be vetted thoroughly on these pages in the months ahead. You can be sure of that.
I'm sure Hillary would let him hand out canapes.
The man's color does not bother me, his political view DO!
The first black President will come from the GOP.
"... taken a high-profile trip to Africa"
Cassius Clay obscure quote after his "Rumble in the Jungle" junket to Africa:
"I'm sure glad my ancestors got on that boat"
Okay, loose quote
Hopefully!
Being a dim gives one unlimited free spins.
If Obama spends more than 47 cents on his campaign he's a fool. The MSM is doing all the work for him.
Are you talking aboud the tiny tank driver and the undertaker?
He went to Robert Byrd's office for advice? I'm surprised the old man didn't chase him out of there with a shotgun.
"About"
They trotted him out days before the Election to do damage control against Michael Steele, " Look mr Steels is running to be a US Senator, but us democrats have a black
senator and we are going to have him run for the Presidency.
It worked short term, but he has one chance in a trillion and Hillary knows that one chance doesn't exist as well!
Most of the country doesn't believe there is any Marxist left. The conventional wisdom is that communism closed up shop in the 90's. The most evil ideology known to man just licked its wounds and went peacefully into the night. That's honestly what most people think.
Also, Obama is not black. He's half-black... and he's articulate -- which only means that he doesn't flub his lies and hopeful-sounding platitudes. He gets them right on the first take, making for nice, clean sound bites. He's as non-threatening as a black man can get. White women will fall for his act and vote for him in large numbers. Especially after he goes on Oprah and dazzles.
It's the Muslim issue that will hopefully bring him down. And even that will be tough if there isn't another attack between now and '08 (which I seriously doubt there will be).
I think Obama's a lock for the VP in '08 with an outside shot at winning the Dem primary.
Not bad for a guy who hasn't accomplished a damn thing in his political life. Not bad at all.
