lol, It is very funny because many hate Hillary. However;I rather have someone with some form of record than Obama, who speaks in quotes. Obama has no experience and I hate the fact that Oprah thinks she is God( she thinks she can decide for us who we should vote for). Hillary love her or hate her, she has Bill behind her. He is a great salesman and is powerful. The country needs experienced people in office not someone like Obama. Notice how he never talks about issues, just preaches. On the Republician side, it looks like Mike Huckabee. He has followers. But what the hell do I know.I can't make up my mind!!!!!!!!!
But Hillary isn't in the running, she was President for two terms and isn't eligible to run again!:nuts:View attachment 3027
Now is not the time for this country to have a president who is extra friendly with our enemies. I can care less about what religion one chooses,but I care when one will be my leader. http://urbanlegends.about.com/library/bl_barack_obama_muslim.htmObama's father, Barack Hussein Obama, Sr. was a radical Muslim who migrated from Kenya to Jakarta, Indonesia. He met Obama's mother, Ann Dunham-a white atheist from Wichita, Kansas-at the University of Hawaii at Manoa. Obama, Sr. and Dunham divorced when Barack, Jr. was two.I'm Republican and from the Bible Belt, so of course I like Huckabee......except for the fact that he wants to abolish the IRS! Whenever people use that phrase, I always wonder just how smart they could be. Whatever tax system we have, be it income, or consumption, there will have to be a government agency to oversee its collection.
As for Clinton, I'm impressed. She is an excellent speaker and presents herself very well indeed. She definitely knows all the right things to say. I do cringe, however, when I remember the national health care plan that she wants me to pay for. Well hell, I already pay for medicare and medicaide, so what am I thinking. I'm still old-school enough to wonder how we could elect a female president.
I like Edwards, but he is just too little boyish to have any credibility.
As for Obama, I've already said I don't want a president with a Muslim sounding name.
I guess when all us traditional baby boomers die, you chaps can have it like you want it.
Where is Ronald Reagen when we need him.
GGAL
All I remember is that oil was very cheap when Clinton was in office. The stock market was booming. I could care less he was chasing skirts. That is none of my business, I was not married to him. Obama would be the beginning of the end if elected. No experience and friendly towards the enemies.Bill Clinton, how soon they forget.
There are many good reasons to NOT vote for Mrs. Clinton and he is the first. The main reason that I voted the first time Billy Boy ran for President was to vote AGAINST HIM! I did the same thing in the election for his 2nd term, but to no avail. I blame him for putting our country in the economic mess that we are in today. Thanks Bill for NAFTA, GATT and the other woonderful things that you did to drain our manufacturing and economic base and sent it over to third world countries leaving our dwindling Middle Class to burn in ECONOMIC HELL. As anyone that was there at the time knows, it's a wonder that Billy had time to do so much damage to our country while chasing skirts and screwing his friends and sending them to jail, they took the hit for Billy and Hilly. How can anyone in their right mind want that pair to control the USA again? NOT ME, ANYBODY, but not THEM AGAIN! :nuts:
Ok I'm through, and really don't want to talk politics, and won't, but if you are or were in the MIDDLE CLASS, watch your BACK, remember you have had a knife in it for a long time and a few more stabs might finish us off.:suspicious:
LOL!!! :laugh::laugh::laugh::embarrest:I like McCain, his is the one most likely to die before I retire and provide me with a National Day of Mourning.
Just JOKING!!!
I guess you are right about using Urban Legends. However;I am not putting him down because of his religion. It is the experience factor. The Muslim factor will be a issue for Americans, especially after 9-11. I have nothing against people because of religion and race. This is what the USA is founded on. My point is that many will. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barack_Obama ..... http://www.realchange.org/obama.htmUrban legends are just that. Legends. I just got done reading Obama's book Dreams of My Father last week, which was first published in 1994, 2 years before he even ever ran for state legislature, It was the Indonesian step-father who had influence over him character-and values-wise for a whole whopping 2 years in early grade school. Religion was not the driver in that relationship. He barely ever met his real father, who was had a student visa in the US but went back to Kenya when he got done with school and left wife and baby behind. He came back to visit one time for a whole month when Barack was just a kid who didn't know what to do with this stranger. From his description of meeting the Kenyan side of the family after his father died, they are moderates and it sounds like his father was the same. I've known moderate North African Black and Arab Muslims both, good and kind and generous people, who despise radicals as much as we do.
Obama's inner city community work in Chicago was done through the churches and church leaders and he became a practicing Christian as a consequence. Before that he didn't believe in much of anything spiritually. The book is an exploration of social and cultural influences on character development and key character-development experiences in the man's life and how he came to look at our society and his place in it, long before he ever got into major politics. I recommend reading this book to get a better handle on him even if you don't plan on voting for him, he's going to be a national player for the long haul I think, even if he never takes the top spot. Repeating urban legends without going to the primary source does no one any favors. Use some other criterion to choose for or against a candidate, please, for example, foreign policy experience, by all means, if you think experience is more important than anything else.
