obama

[wither-I]

But being the first catholic or black president doesn’t constitute as change.  Its just a platform you can run on to convince stupid people that something will be different.  JFK didn’t get assassinated because he was making waves of movements across America.  He got assassinated because……well there is a long list.  But because he was fucking with cuba, the cia, the mob, ect ect.  Dirty back door politics, man what a change from all the presidents that came before him.

Im just sick of people already trying to make Obama into a martyr.  He hasn’t done anything yet.  He is not president.  But if you’re hoping for change, you might look else where.  He is the same as anyone else.  Not to mention he is just exploiting the color of his skin because when people see it, they see different, so he says change.  But what exactly is he promising to change?  All he ever does is just say “ I will change shit!” but really doesn’t go into what.  Its just a fairy tale that has launched him into being the front runner.  Its sad how stupid voters are.

awesome AWESOME!
its about time someone says it.
i try to stray from politics for the most part, but this is fucking progressive!

cheers
bless

thank you sir

[wither-I]

its great.
every-single-thing you say in your quote is right on the money imo.

some people are desperately foolish, it is sad.

i just think its funny how people are all like, "obama is hope" and shit like that its completely absurd. literally, anyone could be that hope as well...

[nonesuch]

think about it,  obama appeared out of thin air.  damn near noone in america had ever heard of him until a certain front cover TIME spread asked the question no one was asking, "Is this our next president?" with a big picture of some black guy with a mortal kombat/arabic assassin sounding name.  That was two years ago and now look at him.  He is the Manchurian candidate.  A media monster, a tool of the pnac (look it up).  So what, he says what most stupid idiots want to hear.  I'll change everything and fill the void with hope. bla bla bla.  This isnt a novel concept. The two parties are one party.  They play off each other. Good cop, bad cop.  Its all a well orchestrated plot to make us feel like we have a choice, or a voice. Did you see the democratic convention?  that shit was like a fucking hollywood awards ceremony or my 3rd grade production of Oliver Twist.  We are a family playing in the backround, obama shaking hands, kissing babies.  Give me a fucking break

[bright lights, big city]

or obama is the only ray of hope america has right now...did you watch the convention? everyone who gave a speech in the last 4 days completely knocked it out of the park

[Variable]

so good speeches = good party - president?

that's the kind of idiocy that got W in office.

[devilinside]

My stepmom called and asked me if I saw the speech Hillary gave,and I said no. I dunno...I just don't know if I want him president. I'm very very liberal,but i just DON'T know if I can pick him. And right now,I don't know if he's the lesser of the two evils.

[Variable]

oh hes completely full of shit.  Its pooring out those big ass ears of his.  But, there are some positives to him getting elected.

He does energize people.  And seeing as how the large majority of Americans are morons.  They wont see though his bull shit, and the country might actually get energized and maybe even united.

Im not black.  And I have never been black ( i know, hard to believe ) so im not going to act like I understand this.  Im just going to state an obvious observation.  Black people seem to really, really want this.  For reasons other than they think he is going to be a good candidate.  I mean, I think that it gives them hope.  I think that they need to see a country with a white majority vote in a black man.  I think it helps them understand that they do have a place in this world.  That the world is not full of hate.  And that they can achieve just as much as any other person in america.  I personally think they should see that anyways, but like I said, I really dont think I will ever understand what its like to walk in those shoes.  So im not going to act like I understand.   So it might help with a lot of the racial divide in America.  And it might get rid of idiots like Al sharpton and Jessie Jackson.

Who ever gets elected is more than likely going to have some HUGE failures trying to over come the way the country is going now.  So, if he does get elected.  Its going to show people that he IS human and is not perfect.  It will show people that its stupid to get so hyped up about someone because of the color of their skin ( I could have sworn that was called racism ) and that in the future they need to elect candidates off of policy and their ability to lead our country.  Not off Oratory skills and how warm inside they feel when they hear their story.

Im not black.  And I have never been black ( i know, hard to believe )

*dies laughing*

Sounds like you wanna vote for him?

[Variable]

No, I really dont.  Hes too socialistic for me.  At the end of the day, one of my most core political fundamental beliefs is federalism.  And that's something the GOP used to represent anyways.  But Obama is like the exact opposite. 

But if I thought he could actually make good on some of his promises I might consider him.  But pretty much I think he is a smooth talking ass hole.

[devilinside]

And McCain isn't?? They all tell you what you wanna hear,just so they can get a chance to sit in that oval office. 

[Variable]

yeah yeah I know.  But at least McCain has done something with his political career besides campaign.  When Pailin Gave her speech right now the 2nd part was all about what she has done in only 2 years in office.  Obama has never made a speech like that, because he cant.  He hasnt done shit.  All he has is talk.  That's the difference. 

[theis]

so who are you going to vote for ?

[Variable]

Ron Paul

[devilinside]

Ross Perot

[theis]

okay, i'm sorry, but i don't think i've understood the voting system in the US then.

i thought you were only able to vote between Obama or McCain?

[devilinside]

haha..I was being silly,Ross Perot was a candidate YEARS ago.  Usually you have 2 "main" people running. I know you also have the Green,Independent,Constitutional and Libertarian Parties. But "usually" the Democratic and Republican candidates are the "real" ones running as they actually have a chance to make it to office.

""""""""""""


I like "using" quotations today.

[goldpony]

as Kang said on the Simpsons about voting for a Third party candidate

"go ahead, throw your vote away"

[bright lights, big city]

He hasnt done shit.  All he has is talk.  That's the difference. 

actually he has done shit. as an illinois state senator he did shit, and in his 4 years as us senator he has done shit to try to get out of iraq and get more troops into afghanistan, among many other issues he's tried to deal with.
what he was done in illinois is what he trying to do to the rest of the nation.


i've been wanting to see him as president for about the last 12 months or so, i guess my vote will go to Obama on nov. 4

Reducing oil consumption by 10% in 10 years is a pretty big change and a much MUCH needed one.
