But what about alienating all the others who voted- or did not get a chance to at caucus- or were denied by bogus rules the vote in Fl and Mi. Those people we can AFFORD to alienate? That is the MAJORITY, people- so lets get real. DO NOT MONKEY with our right to vote. This was 3rd world election fixing. The good news is that it did not work in America and Obama is not getting installed as easily as was anticipated. Everyone is afraid to alienate the youth and the African American vote.

But they sought to install Obama and were willing to bloody Clinton to achieve their ends. The radical liberal elites went along with the plan. The biased media played their part REAL well. So now we trashed the best candidate and are still trying to prop up the weaker one. And risk inflaming racial dissent. Not to mention the backlash from the remaining 88% of the people if the decision is made on race and not on merit.

In fact, I am appalled by some of the comments which I presume are attempts to exonerate Rev Wright and consequently, Obama. Timmdogg, did Wright in fact expose America's dirty secret and the media distorted this so called "truth" claimed by Wright? I refer to Wright's claim that America invented AIDS virus to kill off blacks. Are you also actually claiming that high gas prices, job loss and all the other problems are solely because we "did not mind our own business"? You do not consider for example that the gas price had soared because of the demand pressure from China? Are job losses due to our occupation of Iraq? Really? Let me also remind you Obamanation that this REVEREND blasphemed in a Church sermon! Who in their good minds would attend a Church where the REVEREND himself is crying out "God ****" in a sermon? It's deplorable! Americans SHOULD question this presidential candidate named Obama's judgment to NOT leave such church and reverend. He attended this church for 20 yrs, made Wright his spritual adviser, etc etc and claims he did not "really" know about Wright's views? Does Obama really think all of America are that ignorant or adulating of him that much? It appears that Obama supporters are willing to turn a blind eye to the Rev Wright issue.

Tue, 29 Apr 2008 02:00:44 +0000 http://cnnpoliticalticker.wordpress.com/?p=6759#comment-976660 ADVICE FOR THE OBAMA CAMPAIGN: If I were a speech writer for the Obama Campaign, this is what I would tell Obama to say in a speech on the beach in NC: I have known Rev. Wright for the last 20 yrs. He was an influencial person in directing me to begin my journey to seek a a personal relationship with God. My journey began there, but it didn't end there. On this jounrey I have grown to a new spiritual awareness and awakening. I have come to understand that God is not just in the one church on Sunday, but in all churches, every Sunday. No one way is the correct way to walk the spiritual path. Our religious affiliation is predicated on each individuals experiences, demographic and most importantly our own personal journies. The constitution, designed by our forefathers, allowed all Americans to exercise their own way of worshipping God. Therefore the style or mechanisms of worship, faith and religon should never be forced on any anyone, nor should it be used as a gage to judge or denounce them. Rev. Wright has the right to express his beliefs and his convictions in whatever forum he so chooses. Many have fought, including Rev. Wright, and died for that inalienable right of free speech. His views are provocative and may challenge or offend some peoples conventional thinking of religon and faith. But his words are not my words. I have a different view (behind him should stand a religious representative of every faith and religon. He should turn to show those members of all faiths).The people who stand behind me represent the thread that weaves the fabric of our country. All of these individuals represent the unity that I desire to have in our country and how I plan to run my administration. Seperate threads, woven into a symmetrical fabric...called the United States of America. I want a country where all of these faiths can not only co-exist, and be respected, but work together to continue the dream of a "more perfect union". A union that embraces our differences and revels in all of our individualities. Therefore, hear me when I say, the only words that represent my beliefs and my views on faith, have and will be spoken from my mouth. I need no other to express my thoughts and beliefs about this great country. I am more than willing and able to speak my own thoughts and truths. The America I see, is an America that is diverse, proud, beautiful, courageous, inspirational, and resilient. The future I envision for the country includes inclusion, redemption, honor and most of all HOPE. Together, all of us, can achieve the dreams of our forefathers, to acknowledge the pains of the past but then to move foward towards a "more perfect union". Thank you and God Bless America.

Barack needs to ignore Hillary. Barack is not comfortable going negative and I think that is good quality. But in this divisive strategy by the Clintons, he will only lose if he goes there. Face it, Hillary is no longer going after him on the issues. The Clinton campaign is going after his chararacter. Her politics are now in the gutter and she only wants to take him down their with her. Take this woman's advice, Barack. Ignore Clintons attacks and return to the higher ground we all should occupy. Keep talking issues. Talk directly to the people. Win Indiana (or come real close) and win North Carolina and this will be over. 1/2 of Hillary's supporters wont vote for Barack. just because Hillary loses. Not because of issues, not because of anything else. Thats fine, they can try and expalin that to their kids someday as we get a Bush 3rd term. And they can also explain to little Jimmy or Susie why its fair to overturn the will of the people by threatening to vote for McCaini in larger numbers than Obama supporters. Wise woman and very very tuned in to what needs to happen.
Barack needs to ignore Hillary. Barack is not comfortable going negative and I think that is good quality.
But in this divisive strategy by the Clintons, he will only lose if he goes there.
Face it, Hillary is no longer going after him on the issues. The Clinton campaign is going after his chararacter. Her politics are now in the gutter and she only wants to take him down their with her.

Take this woman's advice, Barack. Ignore Clintons attacks and return to the higher ground we all should occupy.
Keep talking issues. Talk directly to the people. Win Indiana (or come real close) and win North Carolina and this will be over.

1/2 of Hillary's supporters wont vote for Barack. just because Hillary loses. Not because of issues, not because of anything else.
Thats fine, they can try and expalin that to their kids someday as we get a Bush 3rd term. And they can also explain to little Jimmy or Susie why its fair to overturn the will of the people by threatening to vote for McCaini in larger numbers than Obama supporters.

The number of Obama supporters who showed up to caucus was very large, so Sen. Obama won the caucus election, even though He clearly was the less popular candidate in the state. Where is the democracy of that result? The Texas result shows that Caucus elections are totally undemocratic. The candidate’s campaign that can haul more of its supporters to the caucus meeting will win the caucus election, even though that candidate might be the least popular in that state. That is how Sen. Obama has taken the lead of pledged delegates over Sen. Clinton, by winning caucus states. Obama’s claim that nationally He is the more popular candidate is bogus, as Sen. Clinton has won most primary elections. Furthermore, the process to determine the candidate for president for the Democratic Party requires the winner to get 2025 delegates to obtain a majority and thus be the democratic presidential candidate next fall. Currently, neither Sen. Obama nor Sen. Clinton has obtained the required majority. It appears that neither of the two Senators will be able to obtain the required 2025 delegates from pledged delegates at the end of the primary election process to get the nomination, so they will be tied, neither Senator will be ahead nor behind, THEY WILL BE TIED, it will be a draw. That is, no citizen who cast a vote in primary elections will be disenfranchised ( except maybe those from Michigan and Florida ) if his or her candidate isn’t picked in Denver, because NOBODY WON during the primary process. A runoff election will then take place at the democratic party’s national convention in Denver where only delegates will vote. There, the superdelegates will end up picking the winner. This is the process, this is how it should be if neither candidate obtains the required 2025 delegate majority during the primary period. Sen.
