Its all a big wish.. Times are changin my man. Its gonna take a younger crowd, who have been able to see past what their parents try to brainwash them with.. to see that this guy could be for real. and not some slack friggin nigra. My wifes folks wont vote for him for that reason. their kids are a different story I have seen the impact he has had on some of our residents though.. so its too early for me to speculate who these people will be voting for...

That's how Jimmy Carter got elected. After Nixon's resignation the attitude was 'throw all the bums out' and elect someone untainted by the Washington corruption.

Carter's years were the biggest disaster for this country since the depression. We had 'stagflation' (inflation and recession simultaneously, something economic theorists said would be impossible), the OPEC-created energy crisis, the Iran hostage crisis. Carter was surrounded by the most corrupt aides in the history of the US-- including his brother Billy who was a secret lobbyist for Libya.

Being an 'outsider' merely guarantees that you'll be unable to get anyone to do anything.

who the h*ll are calling smear campaign. George W. Bush made a SMEAR CAMPAIGN. in 2001/2 he said "we will not go into another country and impose our beliefs on them" WHAT ARE WE DOING NOW?WE ARE FORCING/IMPOSE OUR FORM OF GOVERNMENT (GOVERNMENT IS AN IDEOLOGY THEREFORE IT IS A BELIEF) ON THE IRAQUIS Second of all on what pot head knowledge did we go it Iraq for, THERE WAS NO CONCRETE EVIDENCE THAT IRAQ HAD WEAPONS OF MASS DESTRUCTION ON THE OTHER HAND IRAN HAS WEAPONS OF MASS DESTRUSTION AND WE DONT DO ANYTHING ABOUT THAT. TALK ABOUT BEING BLIND. WAIT I FORGOT, BUSH CANT SPEAK NOR CAN HE SEE.

Whether he is Muslim, Christian, or athiest, why does that really matter? You don't need any of that crap to run a country effectively, especially a country where anyone could be any religion they want to be. And if he is a Muslim, so effin what? Is that supposed to make him an evil person? I know many Muslims here at UCLA, they are not evil or extremists. One thing that really pissed me off during the last two elections was the religous right voting for our evil President because he was supposedly a Christian. Didn't matter what else he believed in or what he did during his first term, ho got the vote from the blinded stupid masses, because he was supported by pastors preaching to the bleating lambs. A person's religion has nothing to do with how well he can run an office, as long as he is a good person, fights for what is right and best for his country, and is competent doing it, he could be an athiest for all I am concerned. This country is not just Christian you know.
