Obama rally was great !
Magi and I went to the Obama rally yesterday. There was over 30,000 people there and the energy was incredible ! We thought we were going to get there early enough to get up close, wrong. The line was unbeliveable. I can't even describe the good feeling it gave me. Black and white people coming together like I've never seen. It was awesome !
This man really has a way of spreading love and compasion, and such a talent for bringing people together.
I also like the way he doesn't let us (the people) off the hook. That it's up to us, to start paying attention and make sure our voices are heard. Many, including myself, have sat back for too long while Washington has run-a-muck. It's time to take our country back from these big business crooks.

I do understand what your saying, but remember it wasn't Obama that said that. It was someone on this forum. This really is something we all need to work on. It's still a sensitive issue for many. Just remember it goes both ways. There definatley are people out there that won't vote for Obama, for no other reason than he is black. Then there are blacks that feel pressure to vote for him. I do get it. It is a problem. It's another hurdle for us all to get over, and I believe we can.
It is unfortunate this thread had to turn into a hate mongering, racist and completely absurb argument. I find several of the above postings offensive to any logical or productive debate, rather shouting insantities that are based on isolation and blantant ignorance.
So very sad. Your intent was good Mary, thank you for sharing a lighter subject and your experience. It is unfortunate it had to turn into a juvinile name calling and profanticy laced brawl of so called adults.

See what I'm talking about???
Time you said anything against Obama, you are automatically labeled as a racist.
This is crazy! I dont want a leader who is beginning to resemble a DICTATOR everyday when you cant even speak out against him. F*@k that S#!t

Remember this needs to stay as a debate and not turn into an agruement.Its fine to have different opinions just respect others as well.
As Democrats and Independents weigh who they want to run against John McCain in the fall, answer this question. Can you support a candidate who is friends with terrorists? Can you support a candidate who takes money from terrorists? Well, if Obama is your man you have some problems. Today’s Bloomberg News drops this bombshell:
Besides Rezko and Giannoulias, Obama could face questions about his relationship with William Ayers, a former member of the radical group the Weather Underground who is now a professor of education at the University of Illinois in Chicago. Ayers donated $200 in 2001 to Obama’s Illinois state Senate campaign and served with him from 1999 to 2002 on the board of the Woods Fund, an anti-poverty group.
A Series of Bombings
The Weather Underground carried out a series of bombings in the early 1970s — including the U.S. Capitol and the Pentagon. While Ayers was never prosecuted for those attacks, he told the New York Times in an interview published Sept. 11, 2001, that “I don’t regret setting bombs.”
Bill Burton, Obama’s spokesman, said Ayers “does not have a role on the campaign.” Ayers said he had no comment on his relationship with Obama.
Does not have a role on the campaign? Well thank God for that. Are you kidding me?
Peter Hitchens was the first to hint at this relationship, but Tim Burger nails it. William Ayers is an American terrorist. What else do you call someone who plants bombs at Federal facilities? William Ayers has not been prosecuted for the bombings, but he was directly involved. He admits this. And do not give me the nonsense that he was fighting for a good cause. Martin Luther King’s message of non-violence had no place in the political ideology of Mr. Ayers. And Ayers is unrepentant.
First, Ayers contributed money to Obama.

Second, this is more than a casual acquaintance. Obama and Ayers served together on the board of the Woods Fund. Did Obama and Ayers do more than simply sit side-by-side? Did they steer money to favored groups? Those are questions that journalists not bowing at the feet of the Obama god need to ask.
hummmmmmmmmm terrorist funding for his weak campaign i could post plenty but this isnt a political forum now IS IT ??????????

Alienshadow,
I'm sorry, but you're really out of touch with reality. Where are you getting your info from, the Enquirer? Or do you just hate black people so much, that you can't see past that? You're one of the few people left that doesn't know whats really going on. Time to wake up and get your head out of the sand.

Your kidding, right ? You honestly think Obama is going to Iraq to give terrorist's information ? Reality check, please .
You will be thanking him for getting our troups out and saving thousands of lives.

I know enough about Obama. My 6 yr old had to do a report about him. I definately wanted Hillary or Edwards. I would have accepted Obama as VP. I have no respect for him going up against who he himself knows was better suited for the job. That in itself shows he doesnt give a hang about the country. I am hoping and praying that he will be able to do the job and fix all the mess. Maybe he can call Hill and ask her some pointers. I know that what's done is done though and this country has had its day and its glory. Im glad I was around to see it and bask in it. "And this too shall pass"
Our options are going to be McCain or Obama. If you need to know more about Obama, you can go to many different web sites or read one of his books. There is plenty of info on him out there. I understand that many people don't know much about Obama. I read his books before he was ever running for president. Liked what I read and have been following him in the news etc. for about 4 years now. I also feel he is doing the best he possibly can to keep race out of this.
All I can say to you is I know where McCain will take this country and I will be voting for something different this time.
I think it's pretty sad that white people are afraid to vote for a black man, even though this man shows more logic and reason than the other canidates. As far as black people feeling pressure, thats sad also. Let's just pay attention to the issues . We really can't do this ... he's not black enough or he's too black thing.

The entire media, administration, and anyone else holding power were behind Bush "winning" his elections in the first place. Who cares what they have to say now???
I still dont believe Obama got this far. He's been hyped up and I agree that he is not the answer to what our country needs. I dont trust him one bit. I believe his color is what will work against the nation. Caucasians government officials and figureheads will be afraid to speak out against mess ups and wrong he does b/c the black population will yell "racist!!!" and the black population have this pride and this we-better-stick-together-thing going that they will hate on and denounce any black figure head that speaks out against him as well. It's already been happening. No telling what this man has up his sleeve. Who is he anyway? All I know is he'll be able to get away with doing a whole bunch of mess b/c people are not going to speak out against him

Lighten up. It was a joke.
Tonight, two major network anchors and every other network except Fox admitted they were duped by Bush about the reason to go to war.
Going back and forth with you about this does not give me pleasure. I understand your son has been in Iraq. I will leave your forum..............Later dude

I was being sarcastic about your reason for not liking Obama..................
As Lee Greenwood would say (Im proud to be an AMERICAN ) He sure would not make a song on supporting terrorist he has to much RED WHITE AND BLUE blood in him
Obama is NOT the answer to fixing this countrys problems if he gets in we are doomed you might as well say here we come UNITED NATIONS oh GOD Im getting sick

I agree with alienshadow. Obama is a Muslim. They are all terrorists. And he will make Jessie Jackson Vice President. The blacks will be out of control.
And Scott McClellan is a liar. I can't believe he said the President lied about the war.
