Obama won, now what?

Being the strong black woman that I am.....That is awesome, I should read that book.

So, by that, are you saying that you are racist and enjoy others speaking the same way. Is this why you want him to be president? Because you share the same views?

Hate will never extinguish hate. (As had been stated more times than anything ever need be said) It only adds fuel to the fire.

I could never vote for someone who has the background Obama has. I do not beleive I need to give examples. They have been listed too many times already. If you haven't realized by now that he will NOT unite this country then nothing anyone says will make you realize this.

I do not like either of the candidates, but I will vote for the lesser of two evils.

my point exactly man.
i'm conservative, but its so obvious how bad Obama is.





he resembles so much characters like Hitler, Stalin, and Castro. Great public speakers with beautiful and inspiring rhetroic who come from the outside of the centralized government with new, fresh ideas who appear as "liberators"... but they really have agendas fueled with hate from a troubled background.



if history can teach us anything, its to avoid characters like Obama, i don't know how many times we need the same lesson again and again.

So whats his real agenda? Enslave white people? Call up his boys in Al Qaeda and let them know its open season? Lets be realistic.. what exactly has Obama done or said that translates to Hitler?

i hear this a lot, and i understand the general premise of the notion, but one thing still baffles me. Why is it that no one deems it possible to (and you put this quite well, Chase) speak with beautiful and inspiring rhetoric and introduce fresh ideas, while not simultaneously having some ominous agenda? I consider myself a somewhat eloquent, well-spoken individual, but I don't have some evil plan that utilizes that. I know thats a poor example, but I'm just saying... you can be a phenomenal speaker and an inspiration without simultaneously being the devil incarnate.

That's actually a good point. Props.

I think the parallel is being made sometimes because those guys (the truly evil ones) sold the masses a bill of goods that only served a hidden agenda. They were able to do so partly BECAUSE they were so eloquent and charismatic. Sort of like a good salesman will sell ice to an Eskimo.

I still think you have a good point though.

thats the thing though, they win over the hearts of millions with all the fireworks of a great speech and memorable one liners that speak about glorious change. Which like you said can be a good thing within the hands of a truely good leader, JFK had good speeches and so did Reagan and i liked both those men's terms (for the most part).


but its just the fact with his church, his book, not wearing the flag, wanting to meet with terrorist leaders, his wife being so unpatriotic.... i'm not suggesting that will happen, but it looks so ominous with all of the signs pointing in that direction. You know what i'm saying?



All i'm saying is i think people need to learn more about Obama and what he has done, he has come out of the woodworks... passed on most votes in the Senate like Edwards pointed out and speaks little of policy.


I just hope America makes an informed decision on this one and learns from the past... i certainly don't think so, but by all means he could be the best President ever, i just have a bad feeling is my point and i think people should be aware of the possibilities

I think you have missed the point.

Noone is saying he must have some ominous agenda because he speaks so well. It is his background and the people he has associated with (for many years until just recently distancing himself from them to further his campaign), that are cause for concern.
