Hispanics4Obama July 14th, 2008 5:14 pm ET

Hispanic for McCAIN, LISTEN HISPANIC4OBAMA, you know that Latinos are going for McCain you need to wake up and smell the coffee, and learn a little more about your culture, We latinos have pride in this country and we Latinos will not be for sell just because you have this fantacy about OBAMA. He is not for the Latinos I happen to believe that McCain is for the Latinos!!! Why is that OBAMA Never visit Mexico, Colombia, and yes he did when to my Island in Puerto Rico and guess what the Puertorican people told him to leave this is CLINTON Country that is right and a fact!!!! that is why he lost BIG TIME in Puerto Rico!!! Puertorican are smart people and we know a true winner in McCain!!!! Not Obama

Hispanics for McCain,
What Latinos?I look to the left, and I look to the right, I look all around and see only Latinos for Obama.

Listen you moron where are you getting this crap, cause here in NY, PA, OH, MI, FLA, NM, TX, NV, CA, CO the Hispanic people are saying that McCain is their man not OBAMA. Also let me tell you one thing I happen to be a DEM and all my friends and family are DEM but this BOZO Obama is not for the Latinos people. Just go and ask Hillary Clinton about the Latino Connection, she said Hispanic go vote for McCain cause OBAMA is a big clown (BOZO) that is the facts

Ask Bill Clinton!!!!!

Hispanic for McCain!!!!!

Ricky: Don't you get tired of the same old rhetoric over and over. Do you think if you say it enough people will believe it. Yes McCain is a war hero….but that doesn't mean he'll make a great or even a good president. He didn't show good judgement on Iraq now did he?

McCain is the biggest flip flopper…the Hispanics are not going to fall for this one..

latino4Obama July 14th, 2008 5:28 pm ET

I am donating to Obama. He will bring my brother home from Iraq!

Shame on you I happen to have Two brothers in Iraq, and guess what they believe in the United States of America, they believe in principal, so don't get mad about that OBAMA will bring the troops home. Remember what it said that he will end the War once he elected, nows he says 16 months next time he will say 2 years and then 4 years and so on. That is why he Flip Flops on everything.Latinos open your eyes wide open McCain is the one for Hispanic people not OBAMA.

Hispanic for McCain

Yes, indeed. Mr. McCain has displayed political courage — in the past.

In the present, it is sorely lacking, and he does not get my vote.

Stop pandering mcbush

McCain cannot talk and think at the same time–McCain is a loose canon period–how is McCain going to deal with Soveriegn Countries period? Every day McCain says something that makes no sense period. McCain does not talk about issues only runs down Obama that is all he does! McCain has a huge anger management problem, his fits of rage are uncontrollable period. How is McCain going to handle the real stress day to day in Government when he cannot handle his own campaign that is now being run by Bush men? His fits of rage, his temper shows he has an emotional instability and is not normal! The news media is covering McCain's huge mistakes made in statments but will SOVERIEGN COUNTRIES accept it? Very scary! How will mcCain even understand the depth or comprehend the issues on Foreign Policys? Obama was on Fareed Zakaria and the whole world watch it–obama knows knows his Foreign Policy that is for sure, better even this Bush government!! Vote Obama

nstead of pandering to Illegals by both candidate, I would like both say–ENFORCE THE LAWS THAT ARE ON OUR BOOKS NOW. Such a simple solution.

Hillary's 18 million votes were "not all pure Dem. Voters– many crossed over from Rep. and voted for her! Because they did not want to run against Obama and because of Rush L.! Think about that! Obama was only a 200, 000 short and that is not counting all cacuses! So I believe Hillary did not really win only because of Republicans crossing over to vote for her then back to Republicans. Not pure Dem. Voters

John McCain don't start picking out the curtains for the white house just yet and figuring where youre going to put your "napalm" trophies.
You will not win the presidency. You are a war monging old goat.

McCain was for the fence now what he isn't? Oh yah he needs the Latino votes yah right!!

McCain voted for this unjust war, McCain voted YES! Now after thousands and thousands of lives KILLED AND MAMED McCain wants to take credit for the surge to glorify himself? I do not think so. Obama voted NO on the war period. If there was no unjust war that killed thousands there would be no no no need for a surge period! Our troops would not be in Iraq in the first place period! The terrorist would not have regrouped and made stronger.

McCain this is disgusting do not even brag that you suggested a surge to late thousands were killed and thousands mamed for life. You want Americans to give you credit –I DO NOT THINK SO!!

This is just one more reason why McCain has a courageous voting record. For independents like myself that want true bi-partisanship in Washington we are voting for McCain. I'm not critcizing Obama for being a liberal and voting that way, but unless you also lean solidly to the left you don't want a President who only supports one side or the other. We need a centrist as a President and McCain is that.

As an hispanic male I am sick of obama's cool-aid. McCain all the way don't care what it cost.

I agree with you, RB TX this is true trust is something latinos and latinas understand and to say things which cvan not become reality should not even be said !!

McCain was not even born in the US!!

He'll also need diapers in his 1st term!!!

Time for grampa to take a nap!

No McLies!!

McCain was not even born in the US!!

He'll also need diapers in his 1st term!!!

Time for grampa to take a nap! No McLies

Mr. McCain, if you speak for La Raza, you do not speak for me.

Nor will you get my vote.

There are many Latinos in anti-illegal immigration groups in your state, Senator, such as the one (American Citizens United) working right now to have the mayor of Phoenix recalled over his failure to deal with by accomadating illegal immigration.

Though I am not Hispanic, I am proud to support and stand with them.

One day, they may turn their eye on your office, Senator Lettuce.

McCain is selling the USA just like his wife help sells the "King of Beers" soon to be owned by Belgians!

So Obama is accusing McCain of backing down from supporting a bill that Obama (in true democratic fashion) actually helped kill?

Theres double talk if I ever saw it

And Another Flip Flop
If this was Obama the media would be going Crazy
BARACK THE VOTE AMERICA !!!

Bayou Joe who is so proud of McCain's "100 years of accomplishments", I knew he was old, but not that old. Thanks for the update.

In recent polls, Obama leads 2 to1 over McCain with Latino voters.Welcome aboard the Obama train!

ERRR…UHHH..UMMMM ERR AWWWWWW!!!! WHAT WAS THE QUESTION AGAIN?- JOHN MCCAIN.

Dont make the wall a political bandara Cortez. its neither party to own.
talk about the issues. anyone can talk anyone else down.
i have lived in DC and i am of Hispanice descent . i wont vote for someone who sold his family out after they stood behind him in hard times. Family is core.
i wont vote for Mcsame we cant have another 8 yrs of the same no less.
Hispanos para Obama

Why, it is so obvious that even el Commandante could understand, amigos.
Senor McCain is for each and every Latin immigrant voter who will vote for Senor McCain.
No confusion por favor, senors y senoritas.

Vig—-DUMP OBAMA and BRING BACK HILLARY……Dump WHO??

Obama is in it to win it !!!!

Obama is in it to win it !!!!

toObama is in it to win it !!!!

McCain is a hero. Don't ever forget it.
He is a patriot and loves our country.
This man has over 30 years of fighting for what's right.
Obama is a three year senator, never even served in the military and now thinks he should be president?
What's wrong with this picture?

Oh yeah, his best friends and mentors are anti American?
Reverend Wright, Willaim Ayers and Father Plaeger are just a few of his racist, anti American, anti Semitic friends.

Everyone should read about these people and run from Obama.

"After you vote for me, get your bags packed and get out."

All of you that say Obama has no record on anything are idiots. I'm not a senator, but I think it was a mistake to go into Iraq (even though I went into Iraq as a Marine). Is my opinion somehow wrong or invalid just because I couldn't vote on it in the Senate???? That's your argument and it's ridiculous. I think that Earth is round too, do I have to vote on record in order for my opinion to be valid and factual??

Big Mac (elitists)
Filet-“OLD”-Fish (fishy politics)
Quarter Pounder (not even a whole pound)
French Fries (flip flop)
Icy "COLD" (ice cold heart)
"Mc"Shake (very shaky)
Sunday's "OLD" Apple Pie (yesterday's message for America)
You deserve a "better" today (America lets get better than this)
Than MCCAIN (vote Obama 08)

Brian, you are a racist. learn your Arizona history and the History of the Southwest. This land was settled by my ancestors and will continue to be occupied by them, whether you like it or not. We the Hispanic voters are not from Mexico or Central America and have no intention of taking over as you Gringos Racists suggest.
Arizonan's that care about Americans of Mexican descent (that is what we really are.) and have seen the sacrifices we have made in every war this country has been engaged. Will vote for McCain.
Take a vacation, go to DC look at the Wall and you will see. Garcia, Torres, Gonzales, Martinez,,,,, and every other Spanish name on that wall. My own grandfather served in WWI and my father in WWII.

Hispanos will not surrender our country to Socialists whether by force or by election.

Conservatives blasted the McCain-Kennedy bill. McCain later decided he would not support the legislation, which failed to become law, until the country's southern border is secured.

McCain didn’t even support his own bill? …..but when he talk to Hispanics he changes his mind again?

You call that straight talk? John McCain needs a major realignment as his straight talk has derailed way too often!

To: Brandon Hillary PUMA for Mc Cain-Pa, Mike from Syracuse NY, and Marie in California,

If you love Hillary so much why don't you help retire her debt? No one is begging for your votes. Vote for McCain. As for the enlightened ones we are voting for Obama.

More straight talk from "The Straight Talk Express"

bitter Hillary supporters I don't care who you votre for……just quit ruining others debates on here…….you guys have lost ….the subbject should be Obama or McCain not pantsuit or boy haircuts

HILLARY CLINTON IS THE DECIDING FACTOR.
IT WOULD BE WELL FOR BILL CLINTON TO EITHER STAY HOME OR GO TO EUROPE FROM NOW TILL THE NEXT PRESIDENT IS ELECTED.. BILL CLINTON CAN BE A FUND RAISER BUT HIS EGO GETS IN THE WAY TOO MUCH.. HILLARY DID JUST FINE ON HER OWN AND WILL DO JUST FINE WITHOUT BILL CLINTON ON THE SCENE. HOWEVER, AFTER OBAMA MAKES HIS CHOIC FOR VP AND IT IS NOT HILLARY C;INTON ON OBAMA'S TICKET. THEN BILL CLINTON CAN GO ABOUT HIS BUSINESS RAISING FUNDS FOR HILLARY AND HIS LIBRARY. BECAUSE OBAMA WILL NOT GET ELECTED WITHOUT HILLARY'S 18 MILLION SUPPORTERS AND THEIR $$$$$$CONTRIBUTIONS.

Regarding the last article regarding the use of the word oreo to describe Obama. Unfortunately there will always be some people, both black and white who choose to use words they know will illicit a negative response. The mistake would be react to those coimments other than to condemn them and those that use them. Considering the back lash this person is likely to receive- from both blacks and whites-I wouldn't want to be him.

Oreo – question mark on your forehead – whatever you want to call it, people are comfortable when they can place you in a box or label you so that they "understand” or in most cases place certain prejudices on your behavior, positions, actions etc. or even give themselves permission to act or behave in a certain way. We as a public just haven't evolved to getting outside of boxes – apparently we are like cats and children, we find them more exciting then the gift – or in this case the person.

I am donating to Obama. He will bring my brother home from Iraq!

In Obama's under 200 day spend in Washington, what has he tried to do for Latinos???

NOTHING! That is what.

Obama is all talk and no substance.

All americans know what you are about McSame. You will not get my vote.

Obama '08

Instead of pandering to Illegals by both candidate, I would like both say–ENFORCE THE LAWS THAT ARE ON OUR BOOKS NOW. Such a simple solutuion.

If you talk of war should be 3500ft from me!

If you talk of Hope and my aspirations you definately have my vote!

The media is hiding the world Republican becuase they know they have no place.

CNN, it is Democrats Vs. Republicans! Stop being in Republicans pocket by hiding the party name which is damaged and can not even be eaten by dogs even if it is their food!

Go Dems!

Vote democrat or you die!

McSame what about that viagra question??????

Latinos for Obama!

Hispanics for McCain,
What Latinos?I look to the left, and I look to the right, I look all around and see only Latinos for Obama.

Not this time. Not this year. This time we want to talk about our schools, your troops and our world peace.

Anybody who smells war and fear can not have my vote!

I am educated Latino to Know the difference between Mccain and Obama.

Obama all the way!

08,12,16………………!

The Republicans don't want John McCain and neither does
the rest of America! Continue to smear Barack and see
where it gets you. Not this time Karl!

I am for Obama. Older hispanics I think are rooting for Mcbush because they worship white british People!

McCain used to be self made independent – now he’s just a another puppet in the hands of neo-cons. Same as Bush he will do whatever it takes to please his bosses – even vote against his own bill…even take our country into new wars and bring just to the bankruptcy just to continue neo-cons hold on our nation by wars, hate and fear…

WORSE than a flip flopper: saying one thing to one set (I'm all for immigration reform!), and another thing to the other set (no reform until we secure our borders!). Please. This is easier to see than a pig in a poke.

Wow, all the libs think McCain voted against his own Bill, Hmmmmm. Funny no one has voted on the Bill because it has never made it to the floor. McCain even say's in the interview "it won't be voted upon" because like everything else the Democratic congress is more interested in steroids in baseball and fixing their 9% (that's right 9%) approval rating. And you Libs though GW's 29% was bad.

If you want to know if you can trust this man, on immigration or anything else for that matter, just go back and look at his involvement on the Keating 5 deal. This is a dishonest, unethical man who spins his hair trigger temper as "straight talking". I feel sorry for this country if we have 4 more years of the last 8 which has put the US in most vulnerable position.

After voting against a piece of legislation he worked on himself he lost all credibility on this subject.

McCain is just not to be trusted. He just wants to be president before he retires or dies of old age andwill say anything to achieve that goal.

I seriously doubt the legal immigrants will trust him to be on their side and the illegal immigrants are not voters. The whole debate should be about punishing the businesses that hire illegals and keep legal immigrants out of a job, thus condemning them to fulfill the image that is falsely being created about them: people that don't want to work.

The ones that are benefitting from illegal labour are more likely to vote republican then democrat. Wo is McCain trying to fool here?

stop pandering mcbush.

Obama, you have My vote.

I am a proud hispanic for Obama…….I want a non white example to my son. If you are born In U.S.A you should have equal Opportunity like anybody else!

Obama looked very comfortable addressing that group. McCain looked as nervous as a long tailed cat in a room full of rocking chairs. That tells me all I need to know.

I am all the way to the Oval Office with Obama.

Obama for the people.

Mcbush for Elitist like himself and his wife!

Please, you angry/bitter/idiot HRC supporters, please go ahead and vote for McCain. There is nothing I like better than to see Darwinian evolution weed out your type from the population and 4 more years of high taxes, high gas prices, cuts in Medicare and Social Security will do exactly that. Please do us this favor so we don't have to listen to your whining anymore.

It was an Amnesty bill pure and simple and you angered a lot of voters in Arizona with it, John.

Obama needs to keep the record straight and only talk to organizations he really supports like the NAACP. The NCLR was built on principle and supports candidates that have values and have the best interest of the Hispanic people in mind.

Obama has no principle and repeatedly tries and points out faults of everybody else when he needs to work on sticking to an issue instead of going back and forth.

My fellow Hispanics do not be fooled by rhetoric, look at the facts and support McCain who has our best interests in mind, inspite of what Obama might say today, tomorrow and then change his mind again.
Just look at Obamas voting record.

Hispanics for McCain
Real Values

I'm confused about all of this pandering to racial groups. Are the Latinos he is addressing not Americans that went through the normal channels to gain citizenship? I would think they wouldn't want their communities overrun with illegals any less than anyone else. A nation without borders and laws is not a nation at all. We have the law so why not enforce it? We have borders so why not protect them? I have no racial bias towards illegal immagrants and I believe that the rights of every individual to pursue happiness should be garunteed but this is not up for debate. There is law, these people broke it, they are not citizens of this country and should be deported.

That is right Latinos are going for McCain!!!

LATINOS ARE NOT STUPID THEY CAN SEE PAST THE HORSE HOCKEY THAT JOHN MCCAIN IS SPEWING (SI OBAMA PUEDE)

Hispanics are democrats. There is nothing to vote for Republicans. Their time of lying is gone and their time to use fear and smear is gone. Demonizing mexicans should not be rewarded.
I am organizing for Obama in my campus!

So it was ok for the term ZEBRA to be used on the TV show The Jeffersons? People need to quit whinning about every stupid little thing

Here we go again people here a such big WHINERS all you liberals Morons I said before and I said it again the Hispanic the Latinos don't trust OBAMA look at the NCLR they don't trust OBAMA. At least McCain won't turn his back on the Latinos People. OBAMA is against the Cuban Embargo, he Against the Mexican People and he Against ALL Latinos. Hispanic and Latinos open your eyes and see that between both men McCain has the better solution!!!! NOT Obama.

Listen Hispanic for Obama, and Latinos for Obama open your eyes wide open he is not for the Hispanic Community!!! all he is is BLA BLA BLA. The Puertorican people don't trust obama, the Mexican, The Cuban, the Colombian, Dominican and the rest of the Hispanic community don't trust obama. Come next week you will See the Polls going to McCain for the Hispanic votes!!!! LOS HISPANOS PARA MCCAIN!!! LOS LATINOS PARA MCCAIN!!!

Hispanic for McCain

I like action better than inaction (i.e., Obama is all talk and just says what people want to hear.) Go McCain!!! You have my vote. Oslama should get real and just promise what can be delivered. He is overcommitted and is not going to make everyone happy. At least McCain is on the record going against his party with the attempt to fix the immigration problem. Now that Obama needs our vote he is being very nice. Viva McCain!!!!!!!!

Hispanics are Americans! Period!

The things that matter – most on this blog and others do not want to focus on. They would rather focus on sound-bites. Listen guys – Sound-bites are not what gets things done or stops things from getting done – VOTES DO.

McCain has proven himself to be focused on supporting legislation that he feels is right for this great country. He is a true leader in this manner. His opponent doesn't even vote if it's not a win for him politically. His record in the IL State Senate confirms this as does his record in the US Senate.

Arizona4Obama – how about you tell me what 5 reasons you have to vote for Obama and 5 not to vote for McCain. Don't make anything up and don't give me promises – give me votes and legislative results. You will have a difficult time coming up with 5 things that Obama has done in this regard.

And CNN please post my words for a change.

Peter E…clever arguments

Interesting to hear them (Obama and McCain) say anything in order to get the Latino vote, my vote went to Hillary and it will stay there!!!! She is the only one that is smart!!!

Who cares about Hispanics and Latinos?

The Obama has spoken… Black is the color… or African Americans will start to threaten everyone again.

Imagine the tail (12 % of the population) wagging the dog (the other 88%).

And it worked to get Obama installed as the democratic party nominee.

Cindy was asked about the lie her husband told regarding their dating….her response, RUN FROM THE QUESTION. go figure, the McCain's only know how to run from the truth. Immigration, Off shore drilling his voting record, USS Forrestal, his military record…you name it and John will run from it.

What "reforming" is needed is ENFORCEMENT of the current immigration laws. Not immigration itself. Obama's plan to crack down on EMPLOYERS who hire illegals at below-minimum wage is a GREAT way to stop illegals flooding across borders that are impossible to totally secure. If you have to pay an illegal the same as a citizen — why not hire the citizen…especially if they speak English?

When the jobs dry up so to the illegal immigrants.

McCain is just desperate.

Talk of flip flopping. CNN I want a better Headline. Stop hiding behind that script that you were given before hand. I want news, not what Mccain want. Tell me why he is changing his position and he is not being called for it!

Go, go Obama. we love you and America and the world loves you and michelle, malia, sasha!

At least McCain HAS a record on immigration. Obama's entire stance on issues can be summed up by 'I'm a victim of racism' and 'Hillary is the cause of all evil.'

Once again notice people talking about McCain's stance and record on issues, but not Obama's… but then again Obama doesn't really have either…

'Ooo, I'm such a genius! I can put Mc in front of insulting words and think I'm making an argument! Man, I'm so clever! And my name-calling in no way undermines Obama's message of positive change and hope.'

More then I can say he has done for Arizona's immagration issue.

mccain is a lying flip flopper says one thing to win the republican primary now flips he is a flipping flopper liar dont worry latinos are smarter than that they will see right through mccain

@Marc PDX….gosh if you wanna see Obama's position go look at his freaking website. Its page after page of his positions. Don't try to discount the fact that mccain made a big flip on this one.

They will debate goodness grief, it's only July they have all the way until Nov. 4 to do that. You keep calling for a debate as if McCain is the greatest debater of all time. The only thing he is going to do it add to his list of gaffes and pretend (forget) he didn't say them the next day.

I'm liking McCain more… and liking Obama less every day.

Do-nothing Obama is all image and pomp and show… he AND his loudmouth wife.

Establishe track record McCain is humble and simple… he AND his philanthropist wife.

Mccain should go and enjoy his wife's wealth.
They should retire and do race cars chasing!

Shame on you Mcbush, the flip flopper!

Go Obama!

Better make it Clear to ALL, McCain: Americans will NOT tolerate Amnesty OR a Path to Citizenship. We will not stand for any favors or gifts to Illegal Immigrants, whether it is YOU or a Democrat in the White House. Comprehensive Immigration can mean many things and it does NOT mean Path to Citizenship and allowing Illegal Aliens to reside in this country. Period

I agree however no matter how much we fight it plans are in place to insure that the North American Union takes off. They are already taking away land from people here in Texas to build the NAFTA super highway. Face wether it be juan mcamnesty or barrack hussein obama America has lost all forms of soverienty.

Obama panders for votes…
McCain is more honest and hence gives a poorer perception.

Don't fall for Obama's ever-changing ( clarified and refined) words, hype and perception.

Go with the person you know and can trust.

Why is Mccain flip flopping and the media is not calling him on it.
They try say how Obama has shifted.
Say, fear of left wing media to right wing media!

mcbush, mcsame, mcflip-flop, mcliar. voted for a border fence to keep them out, and all of a sudden he loves immigrants. mcflip-flop.

Here is another example of someone that walks the walk like John McCain who is up against a person that has never walked across the aisle, who insteads just talks, talks, talks and whines and whines some more about how bad his Nancy Pelosi and Washington are running this country, and his solutions appears to be tax, tax, tax and tax some more till none of us are working anymore (unless we are in the government).

Obama is on the wrong side of Immigration, the wrong side on FISA, the wrong side on the environment and the wrong side on diplomacy.

For the record, on the McCain-Kennedy Immigration bill of 2007, S 1639, McCain voted for cloture on June 28, 2007. But a majority of senators voted against cloture. That means that McCain voted to close debate on the McCain-Kennedy Immigration bill of 2007 and send it to the Senate floor for a final vote, but the majority of senators voted against him. In other words, he voted FOR his bill, not against it. The fact is, he fought FOR his bill, alongside Ted Kennedy and did NOT "back off."

What he later said was that he recognized that the majority of Americans wanted to secure the border, first. But, McCain then said that he still backs his approach, only after addressing the great majority of Americans. So, he did not "back off" his position on immigration, but recognizes that the large majority of Americans, and their congresspersons in the House and Senate (including the majority of Democrats) will not support his fair position on immigration until we have a secure southern border.

In fact, in the Republican primary debates, he said that undocumented immigrants are "God's children," just like the rest of us, and deserving of fair and decent treatment, not including deportation of families, or splitting up families. This is a key example of how basic, decent values underlie McCain's positions.

Those are the facts – check them out before you believe the ignorant, misinformed or simply dishonest rants, above.

I live in a border state and I can not tell you how much I want Obama to win. I don't care about Immigration, it is a way of America anyway. Give me 5 reasons why to vote for Mcbush and 5 reasons why not to vote for Obama!
Obamas all the way!

Do whatever it takes to teach Obama the lesson: NO forcing your way into the nomination by trashing fellow democrats and stealing the nomination.

McCain is an older version of Bush, and that is scary!!

Vote Obama '08!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

Obama panders to whatever group he needs:

first label the Clintons racists and embrace Wright- to secure the Black vote.

Then go left and hateful of poor whites to secure the left wing vote.

Then stage a public scenario with first Wright and then Jackson… to later denounce and distance himself from extreme Black leaders and try to win back the white folk he called trailor trash.

Then forget separation of church and state and pander to the evangelicals.

And it goes on and on

Is there any difference between the candidates on this issue? Follow the Election center link above. Both candidates are IDENTICAL.

Its time for real change in America. I must confess I was caught up with the Obama campaign when he first started, thinking that he really was a new type of politician, that would stand on principle rather than polling and pandering. Clearly, despite his high rhetoric, that is just not the case. McCain and Obama are both more of the same, pandering and telling you what you want to hear with no principled rationale for any of their positions (unless you count the current poll numbers).

The only candidate promoting REAL change on this issue or any other is Bob Barr, the Libertarian candidate.

Anyone but the Bro and his HO- to paraphrase the Obama camp.

Isn't this divided democratic party just great?

MY CHALLENGE FROM EARLIER IN THE BLOG STILL STANDS…

(so far, no takers)…

exactly.

McCain = Bush, don't fall for his rhetoric my Latino brothers and sisters.

Stay Strong

Hard to compare records when Obama has no record and McCain has 100 years of accomplishments.

This Bayou crab fisherman will take the old man and his experience over the young man with no experience any day of the week.

Go John we are behind you all the way. Don't let the B's get you down.

Did they check to see if he had his fingers crossed behind his back? When the Republicans put the heat on him he will be a flip flopping.

Adios McCane….

Spanish people

don't like war.

McCAin = Bush, don't fall for his rhetoric my Lation brothers and Sisters.

McCain is NOT like Bush. McCain is going to build a fence TWICE as big!!! And possibly spankings.

pandering? yes, I think so!

Yada yada yada – I don't trust anything that McCain and his camp has to say. They say it one day and completely change it the next. I don't know if he can't remember what he said, how he voted, or what his position is, but he's too schizophrenic for me.

What ever happened to Article 2 of the consitution–the qualifications clause for president: A candidate must be born in the US in order to be president.

This was an issue when someone was throwing Arnold Schwarzenegger's name as a posslbe presidential candidate. If true, what exempts John McCain?

The Western world is often the many third world's first example, and with due invitation for installation from a third world and as the west provides the resource centers to train the personnel, the craftsmen, and the engineers while also collecting the best teachers for those new global enterprise.

With billions of people on the earth secondary systems of tracking and exploitation prevention can be arranged, once unions are globally stable and unified with the senates of the many nations the unions can establish a natural world value by creating paychecks which are eliminated as Global, National, and Dirty cash use recorded stock and service certificate.

McCain and Obama spoke at the convention center in San Diego CA.

That city was Spanish, then Mexican, and finally became US when we took it from Mexico through war.

The Minutemen stand outside protesting illegal immigration when they themselves are the illegal occupiers of terrain stolen from Mexico.

The city name is Spanish for Saint Didacus of of Alcalá, a Catholic saint from Spain.

No irony there.

how many times do I have to say it Im Latino and we do not want Obama ! plain and simply ask my friends , my mom sisters and brothers they will all say the same thing ! Latinos for McCain or if Hillary was in it would be her!

McSame is a joke. He doesn't care for Latinos. He is pandering like always.

Latinos for Obama!

Didn't Carly Fiorini run Hewlett Packard to the ground and Lucent to the ground before that? Yet McCain has her running his campaign!

yep and it played havoc here in Oregon for some time. Oh, please forgive me for "Whining"

Obama / 08

Congratulations Mccain, you just lost my vote and millions of others. Why are these candidates brown-nosing for the latino vote so much? Are they planning to find a way for illegal immigrants to vote or something? The fact is that illegal immigration is draining our economy in a big way and is an absolute scourge. Use the front door please, when intruders sneak in through the back door they aren't welcome and should be repelled by force.

Both sides will push for an 'amnesty' path to 'combat' the level of illegal immigration!! Up here in Canada, the government has followed this lunacy for years!! It is amazing how the numbers of 'illegals' change when the goalposts are being continuously moved!!!

McSame flip-flops once again. That man is pitiful.

The bottom line is this: No matter who wins the presidency, there will be an immigration reform bill before congress. The real issue is then what kind of immigration bill gets through the congress and is signed by the president.
Those who ignore the fact that we need to reform the process and also allow for documenting those who are here illegally are just playing politics with the issue.

Immigration is being ignored by Congress (Democrats) because it will cause them to lose Congressional seats. No one wants to touch this hot potato.

Those of us in Arizona who know Senator McCain and his support of the Hispanic (Mexican) community will vote for McCain no matter what position he takes on this issue. We will never vote for Obama even if he promised to allow all of Mexico to move North.

So go for it McCain and bring the bill up before the election. Let's see what the Democrats are really supporting.

Old fool. I voted for you because you were anti-immigration. Tell me whats going on, I will surely stay home.

To: Brandon Hillary PUMA for Mc Cain-Pa, Mike from Syracuse NY, and Marie in California

You idiots could not possibly be defending McCain on this topic, or are you all that stupid? What kind of candidate votes against his own legislation? Actually, knowing each of your posting histories, this is yet another opportunity for you morons to bash Obama. Get over Hillary and yourselves will ya. The rest of the country is moving on and you are stuck in the past still hoping for something that's not going to happen.

BTW, where were you guys and the other staunch Hillary supporters when the topic came up when about Hillary asking for money to pay down the debt she incurred from the primaries? As usual, crickets chirping……..

Can someone explain to me what is White or Black for that matter. Is it that i'm white when my pigmentation is very light and i have blonde hair and blue eyes even when i was born in Columbia or what about my bother who is dark tan with curly hair and brown eyes also from Columbia. we both share the same mother and father. The reason i ask is there seems to be a conversation (issue) Here in the USA. about the color of your skin or is it more of an European thing of who is white.

What a Flip Flopper Mccain has turn out to be on every important issue including immigration. He drafted the immigration and because it wasn't politically convient he voted against HIS OWN BILL. Yet the media spends a whole talking about Obama NON FLIP FLOP ON IRAQ. Wow great journalism or just lazy sorry guys but step it up!

But flip-flopping is only bad when it can be pinned on the Democratic candidate, right?

McCain has dropped himself into the pit with the right-wing whack jobs by taking his stands and tossing them into the wind in order to get the backing of Rush, Sean Hannity, and Ann Coulter.

Wow, what a prize!

McBush is a girly man according to Arnold.

What's Obama's position? He doesn't have one. He'll wait to hear McCain's then come out opposed to it. Then take heat for the gaffes. Then "refine" his position. Same as he did with HRC. He doesn't have the experience to know what his position is yet.

DEBATE!

GO MCCAIN…BEAT OBAMA! 08

GO HILLARY…BEAT MCCAIN 12

Mike, Syracuse NY—

Please address the fact that Senator McCain DRAFTED THE IMMIGRATION BILL…………..

THEN

VOTED AGAINST HIS OWN BILL.

Please, no spinning about what Obama said or did….. Just please address ONE OF THE BIGGEST FLIP-FLOP's in history…. by YOUR guy.

This old guy is going to say anything to win…Tomorrow he will argue he never did…
Please excuse him if he forget what he said today…Age problem

The thing that bugs me is that the mainstream media just WON'T call a spade a spade when it comes to an obviously pander. McCain ran SCREAMING away from his OWN legislation when it was hurting him in the Repub primaries, but now that the general election campaign is underway, he suddenly wants to go back??

Plus, he is trying to have it both ways: "security first" when his audience is a bunch of old, white folks, and some nuanced mish-mash of immigration reform and a dash of small-businessman appeal when talking to Latinos. It is one thing to change positions and/or have it evolve, but you can't keep going back and forth within a few days, with the only determinant being the ethnicity in the room.

Mainstream media: You DO have a responsibility to help us non-professional news analysts (i.e., the general public) see through spin and obfuscation. And you also have the responsibility to give full play to stories like Phil Gramm's comment last week without giving in to the fear that the Right will paint you as liberally biased!

As an American citizen I am offended by he and Obama on this whole immigration issue. Stop trying too stop to appease these non-citizens and focus on the actual American citizens.

Many, Many, MANY sick immature weirdos posting their anti-Barack Obama comments. Hmm, make fun of his name or put his middle name in all caps. Very mature. People STILL talking today about Hillary Clinton. Come on, get over it already. She lost and any democrat that believes that PUMA crude is am immature sore loser.

What I'd like to know is where the heck is the vetting of John McCain?
Why isn't anyone reporting smear rumors about his religion, his patriotism, his record, and other rumors I have heard?

CNN – WHY ARE YOU NOT VETTING JOHN MCCAIN??????????
FOX SURE AS HECK AIN"T GONNA DO IT, THEIR TO FAIR AND BALANCED YA KNOW………………

The United States doesn't need any more legal or illegal aliens. We are up to our eye balls in people who don't belong in this country.
If anything, the U.S. Congress should be writing and legislating NEW COMPREHENSIVE DEPORTATION LAWS that wil provide Reform for this country….NOT Comprehensive Immigration Reform.

Hey McSame. Didn't your campaign just call them whiners and say that they are in a mental recession? Don't try to pander to us now!!! Won't work. Obama has our support!!!

Obama 08/12

What does senator Phil Gramm think about immigration? Oh yeah maybe he thinks that those people are not whiners like americans are?

Attention alll repubs: last month ya'all were saying the polls dont matter, now your %issing yourselves over Obama up by only 3-4 points….polls dont mateer uh! Well look at the Electoral College and look at the polls in each the states and add the totals….its not the poular vote that counts in the EC votes that add up…add em up and you will see a map that points to a Obama victory in November!

Article didn't note McCain voted to kill the legislation too…

Hmm John is good on immigration, on the other hand Obama used Hillary's health care plan that he trashed during the primaries to woo the latinos when he spoke to them. Obama get more original he likes a kid copying off everyone elses papers.

How can you go on the defensive about something that you said. YOU said you would not even support the bill that was headlined with your name. But then again that was one of the 61 flip flops that the MSM didn't report on!

Better make it Clear to ALL, McCain: Americans will NOT tolerate Amnesty OR a Path to Citizenship. We will not stand for any favors or gifts to Illegal Immigrants, whether it is YOU or a Democrat in the White House. Comprehensive Immigration can mean many things and it does NOT mean Path to Citizenship and allowing Illegal Aliens to reside in this country. Period.

Republicans only remember Latinos around election time. They bring out their Latinos nephews and nieces and show them off so as to get us to think that they are hip with the Latino communitty. McCain wants us to trust him, but yet votes against his own bill. How are we to know he wont change his mind if he were to get into office?

McCain is the only candidate that is not a girlie man. I just can't understand how Obama and Barr got the nomination. McCain is well qualified and Barr may be, but Obama is pure green.

I am sorry if I offended a few bloggers in a previous blog. I know the truth hurts and I am sorry that it appears that the truth got to you and got you upset.

But you must wake up. No one wants this war any more but we just can't up and get out like Obama wishes. Wishes just don't make things go away.

Doesn't Obama know that if we pull out our ground troops, then the Iranians will go in and help out the Iraquis? I'd be careful. We can't let that happen, no matter who is president. Americans are victory oriented and Americans hate losing. So suck it up for a little while longer and reap the benefits of a good harvest of peace in the Mid East.

Obama, who has the gall to criticize McCain's record on mmigration needs to be asked: "And how about you, sir. What have you done?" Of course, in the real world of Obama politics, it would be racist to ask hard questions of Obama. His motives cannot be questioned, and when he changes positions, he should not be seen as flip-flopping, but only as "refining" his position. This whole thing is indeed a fairy tale!

McCain today talked about Czech., a country which no longer exists.

With all the gaffes he makes, voters need to be concerned about his mental facilities and the MSM needs to do a better job of reporting them.

Comparing McCain's record against Obama's is a good idea and way overdue. Obama has no record to fall back on. Just some hazy speech he made about not supporting the Iraq war (allegedly… I didn't actually hear whatever he really said or under what context). McCain has decades of experience and a record to go with it. Obama has 144 days in the senate, half of which have been used for campaigning for president. There is no record to show.

DEBATE!!

I think we should have a web site where it compare the candidates on the issues that matters. Economy, Energy, Immigration, and such. I'm confused and i don't know who to believe any more. Both candidates say their approach is the best and effective, and for me its hard to know who has the right solution. Please, build a web site and compare this two politician, I'm dem. but i'm open for Rep. too. It depends on how it goes from here to november.

At least he proposing something, and Arizona is among the most affected by immigration problem's.
Funny thing, and this came out in uncertain terms during the Dem campaigns, is that Obama's immigration policies are nothing but a contiuation of the failed Bush immigration policies!!!
Change? Hah!
Just say Nobama!

Let me see, someone that rarely gets called on anything that his campaign states that is out of line vs someone who is called on and raked over the coals on everything……. which is the real underdog? I have voted for Republicans as well as Democrats, I am a voter for a person and NOT a party, I have lived all over this country and know people from various countries. I (with much shame now) voted for GW in 2000, I voted for Kerry in 2004. Heck, to be honest I voted for Perot twice. It does appear that people are applauding him now when they wouldn't even consider him then. The real underdog is the AMERICAN PEOPLE. I would rather vote for someone that really knows and cares about the constitution than someone that can't "remember" who's names he gave when a POW. Let's get real America, we need a strong leader but noone would elect me because I don't have enough "time" in Washington. Isn't that what is wrong with this country, the average person here has no voice. I would hope that this election will change this. Having said all of this, I will be voting for Senator Obama in November and feel comforted that he will fill his cabinet with members that will have the people of this country at heart and not Corporate business where it's the bottom line and not the individual that really matter.

Caucasian 40ish women with Native American Blood running through my veins…..

McSame just says whatever he can remember to say. It's pitiful to watch! McSame is being bought right now by big business, big oil and all the rest of the hacks that have ruined this country. He can stand there and say anything. Look at who a person owes favors to and you'll know how they will vote on issues. He doesn't give a rats behind about anyone but rich white guys. I'm white, so I can say that.

Wow. A political ticker actually mentioning relevant political issues. That's new!

when you are old, you are just old, all of this old men, mccain, mcclaughin, black, phill ????? and the rest of them, need to come into the 21st century. I hope the hispanics in america, do not believe mccain and vote for Obama.

but sad hillary supporters should vote for mccain and then he can have their children and grand children building the wall.

Guess old Dr Phill was right those who vote for mccain have 'mental recession' which causes them to whine!

I was for immigration

oops

I'm against immigration

Flip Flop McCain just be quiet and let Liebrman ttell you what to do

old crazy man

Didn't Carly Fiorini run Hewlett Packard to the ground and Lucent to the ground before that? Yet McCain has her running his campaign!

well come to real world Hillary supporters stop dreaming it is a while now since it has been over ask Hillary herself she will tell you, that is a fact on the ground unless you are living in dreamland. I will ask Obama or Mc Cain to work you up when one of them is in office.

John McCain is a big supporter of the H1-B visa. That visa, which is used by Amercian hi-tech companies to lay off older Amercian engineers, computer programmers, and scientistis, and replace them with cheap foreign guest workers from India and China, is a security nightmare. Every single Chinese worker is vetted by the Chinese government. Most are spies in the most literal sense of the word. The Indian workers, if anything, are worse. They will, and have, stolen eveything that isn't tied down. Indian workers stole the plans for the B1 and B2 bombers, our stealth fighter and steal technology, plans for guidance systems for cruise missiles, nuclear secrets, and much much more. John McCain's support for this isn't just anti-worker and anti-American, it amounts to treason. If he is allowed to follow Bush into the White House, this country has no chance whatsoever. The maverick John McCain is a fiction. John McCain is nothing mroe than a stalking horse for Bush-Cheney and all of the evil they and their corporate and Wall Street cronies have brought down upon this country.

I wish I could somehow make Senator Obama follow Senator McCain's approach towards Immigration reforms and follow his strategy…..

Or, I wish I could somehow make Senator McCain acquire all the traits and charisma of Senator Obama that collectively gives us a glimmer of hope about his damage-control abilities in both National and International state of affairs.

I really wish I could do one or another.

Our problem with immigration issues is not the individuals who come here and work hard for low wages. It is the business model that exploits workers, in the US or by taking the jobs out of the US, so CEO can be paid millions. All the major aircraft companies currently in Wichita are setting up plants in the same region in Mexico so they can move production to Mexicd. Mc Bush was more sane in his views on immigration 1 year ago than he is doday. Who moderates these, I stay on topic and use no offensive languale, yet I get moderated out about 1/2 the time.

dont worry about it Mac, the hot air vendor lies about everything and the truly intelligent people know this is just another attempt to prevent people from noticing " the man behind the curtain" is just a figment of their imagination.

Let's do what we do best…..pander to get the Hispanic vote. We will show them what we really think of them once we're elected….but for now, lets just pander pander pander.

DEMOCRATS UNITE!!!!

We are not fooled by you Mr McFlip Flop.

We are not voting for you!

Obama all the way!

Is this guy too obvious, or what?

For those who accuse McCain of being a liar, may I remind you that Barack Obama's presidential run was built on falsehood? In 2005, when asked whether he would make a run for the presidency in 2008, the newly elected US senator stated that he unequivocally would not seek the presidency. He went on to add that he did not possess the requisite experience.

Regarding Sen. Obama's opposition to the Iraq War upon which much of his candidacy is built, it turns out that the state senator gave a speech to an anti-war rally in Chicago in 2002. Sen. Obama is on record as admiting that, had he been in the US Senate at the time, he is uncertain as to how he would have cast his vote. Once he entered the US Senate, he voted to continue to support the war effort. He is on record, however, on repeatedly stating that the surge would fail.

I hope you defend your fli flopness when you go before them Mccain.

It is funny that Republican don't label their nominee flip flop even when it is obvious that Mccain doesn't have a stance on many issues.

He was for it , he was against it and now he was for it again.
Which side shall we believe Mccain?

Mccain said he is not economic guru when it was convenience for him to use his military record. Now Mccain his the champion of Economy, Which side of Mccain shall we believe?

Who is flip flop, Mccain voted against civil right, Mccain voted against Martin Luther King's day, Now Mccain is sorry he voted that way and Now he is the champion of civil right and Mccain will support King's day, Who is flip flop?

Guys I will go on and on about Mccain flip flop. Mccain voted 2 times against Bush tax cut and now Mccain champion Bush tax cut.

Who is flip flop?
Mccain is the winner of flip flop championship.

ALL THE GOOD NAZI'S WERE TOLD BY THEIR MEDIA THAT THEY WERE WINNING THE WAR BUT THEY LOOKED OUT THEIR WINDOWS AND SAW A BOMB OUT CITY ALL WOUNDED AND ALL THE DESTRUCKTION AROUND THEM, YET THEY STILL BELIVED THEIR LYING MEDIA, SAME HERE OUR LYING MEDIA TELLS US EVERYTHING IS GREAT YES GAS PRICES ARE GOING UP AND UP BUT THATS OK WERE STILL NUMBER ONE FOOD PRICES GOING UP AND UP WERE STILL NUMBER ONE HOUSEING MARKET CRASHED BUT WERE STILL OK SEEMS LIKE THEY TOOK A PAGE RIGHT OUT OF THE OLD NAZI PLAY BOOK HOW IT WORKING FOR ALL OF YOU TRUE BELIVERS?

Brandon Hillary PUMA for Mc Cain-Pa July 14th, 2008 2:53 pm ET

Latinos will be back to support HRC in 2012….
————————————————————————————————————-
-you hear that? I'm playing the tiniest of violins.

Neither of these two clowns want anything to do with real immigration and border control.

Dems get cheap votes, Repubs get cheap labor, Americans citizens get the bill.

Right now we have a liberal acting as a conservative, and a socialist acting as a liberal.

The only way to get our message out is melt down the switchboards again if the bring up amnesty, vote out those that vote for the bill and then start a third party.

The only problem we as Americans have against Obama is his race. Everyone knows he is a devout Christian and a Family man…. Other factors that are brought up are just Hypocracy.
Most Americans as of today who speak out about Democracy in Iraq and Iran..can't swallow the fact that a Black man is becoming the President of United States of America for the first time, where they (blacks) really belonged for about 15 decades and equally as proud as rest of Americans.
It's Shameful and Sad….
OBAMA (2008 -16)

Don't worry Mr Borack Obama… You will get the right to apply again…

Mcsenile is at it again. when will people wake up from their intolerance and prejudice to vote for the most intelligent and honest candidate, Sen Obama. mccain lies constantly!

We would not have an illegal immigrant problem if the people in the US will do the jobs that the immigrants are doing. Are we above doing these jobs?

McCain's stance on illegal immigration (and let's call it what it is….NOT comprehensive immigration reform….what part of "illegal" don't they understand?)……well, his stance is much better than Obama's. Obama would eventually open the flood-gates to everyone from anywhere in the world. Hillary had the best solution, however.

Rasmussen polls show Obama and McCain tied for the last two days. Obama is sinking.

It not Hillary, then McCain 2008!

McCain would love to hire all immigrants (at a discount rate) to help build that wall, and as soon as it's done? He'll toss you back over it.

Let us all give back this country to the Indians and go back to our respected places of heritage. That way we can stop the in house fighting and we will not have anything to complaint about. I bet the american indians are laughing all the way to the bank.

ALL OF US HAVE PLENTY TO WHINE ABOUT.

WE CERTAINLY DON'T NEED ANY MORE OF IT.

MCBUSH IS A GERIATRIC VERSION OF BUSH.

BOTH CANDIDATES ARE EVEN ON THE IMMIGRATION ISSUE.
ONLY HILLARY CAN TIP THE BALANCE.
I JUST WANT TO COMMENT ON JESSE VENTURA'S REAPPEARANCE ON THE POLITICAL SCENE. HE IS LIKE A RALPH NADER IN HIS PLAY FOR SENATOR. HE HAD SAID HE WANTED NORM COLEMAN DEFEATED, BUT JESSE IS DOING THE VERY THING TO GET COLEMAN ELECTED !!!! HE WILL TAKE VOTES FROM THE DEMOCRATS , FROM AL FRANKEN MOSTLY.
BESIDES THAT JESSE HAS OUTLIVED HIS POLITICAL CHANCES OF EVER BEING ELECTED IN MINNESOTA.

I guess Sen. Obama would know all about backing away when things become political liabilities.

VotePact

** Nader/Gonzalez 2008 **

That open border is getting more and more dangerous for the American officials every day. They need to decide on something, right now!

Obama voted for the fence, and now he opposes it. He will go after employers of illegal immigrants that pay 'below minimum wage'. what about the other employers of illegals? If anyone is pandering it's Obama. He'll open the boarders. Stop the invasion!

Enough is enough – Immigration is overdue in getting under control!
McCain is doing too much pandering – and that is not too smart!
NO AMNESTY FOR ILLEGAL ALIENS. CLOSE THE BORDERS!

THERE IS NOTHING , MCSENILE CAN DO TO GET THE

MAJORITY OF THE LATINO VOTE. WE GOT HIS BIGOT #

I AM SURE HIS NAZI FRIEND DAVID REMNICK, PUT TOGETHER

THE NAZI FRONT PAGE OF THE NEW YORKER MAGAZINE, TOO.

ALL MCCAIN HAS ARE LIES LIES AND MORE LIES

Vig, give it up! Hillary is DONE. You have to wake up. This election is serious and we can't afford another 4 years of McBush…

McCain- Bush,
Can you trust a man that leave his sick wife ,married his mistress Cindy
the old fool need to go home and let young take care of USA

Would this be the same immigration policy that he is now against that he voted for and "authored" with Senator Kennedy? Nice try, McFlip-Flop, McStickin', McRottin', McFish.

FLIP FLOP FLIP FLOP FLOP-FLOP FLOP FLOP FLOP THE REPUBLICANS HAVE ONE BIG FLOP ON THEIR HANDS JOHN MCCAIN FLIP FLOPS MORE THE ANYONE I HAVE EVER SEEN THATS ALL HE DOES FLIP FLOP FLIP FLOP AND LIE LIELIE!!!!! (YES OBAMA WILL BEAT MCCAIN IN NOV.)!!!!!

Exactly what is there to clear up? He drafted legislation and then said that if it came to a vote, he would vote against his own legislation. How has he been mischaracterized?

Right Senator McCain!

Obama prevaricates and obfuscates with ease. The slippery senator is not credible. He is running out of cash and has no moral center or core principles. So, he is grasping at straws!

where are the new Newsweek poll numbers? Obama is down.

I want to hear more from him and CNN about Keating 5.

McCain, please retire!

good, BECAUSE BARACK HUSSEIN OBAMA doesnt have a RECORD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

McCain is a liar.

McCain's bill? Based on McCain's reaction in the debate prior to Super Tuesday of 2008, it clearly wasn't his bill.

Watch the debate just prior to Super Tuesday. This is just a small clip, it's even worse when you watch it.

Q: So I just want to confirm that you would not vote for your bill as it originally was?
McCain: My bill will not be voted on; it will not be voted on.

No wonder the Reagan's called McCain the most insincere man they have ever met. McCain repeatedly lied to the Reagans in the 70's and that was before he became a politician.

McCain has voted with Bush. He is only trying to woo Latino voters. Republicans do not want immigrants, they are anti-immigration. People please let's not have another 4 years of Bush / Republican policies for our country. We need some new in office. Vote for OBAMA…

“I feel I must, as they say, correct the record,” McCain will say.

But he can't do much about his voting record on the piece of immigrationi legislation he worked on but voted against when the conservatives screamed. He also needs to refresh hinself on other portions of his voting record such as viagra/birth control and portions of his 'joking' record such as 'bomb, bomb, bomb Iran,' and we must be exporting cigarettes to Iran to kill them comments. Why isn't this stuff repeated for weeks on end like the Rev. Wright comments? Why are we still talking about Jesse Jackson but not Phil Gramm?

What is wrong with the media? Why are we not talking about more important issues? The McCain comments about Iran really scare me. We all know what happened when Bush Jr. was obsessed with killing Sadam Hussein – he found a way to go to war even though it was not justified. I feel the same thing will happen under McCain with regard to Iran.

I know it seems the general public seems disinterested in the news and more interested in those idiodic reality shows, but please do not 'dumb down' the news and flood the internet with tabloid headlines to attract readers. I look at the top ten most read stories on cnn.com every day and am apalled at how many tabloid stories rank in the top ten. The only way to get unfiltered news seems to be the new blogs such as Huffington, Talking Points Memo, Politico. At least they are not owned by major corps who insist on huge revenues at any cost, to include editing the news to 'sound' more interesting.

I am truly worried about the country's ability to pick good leaders when they are voting based on tabloid journalis and 527 political ads.

YES TELL ME ABOUT YOUR IMMIGRATION RECORD I WANT TO KNOW. AND BE FIRM ON YOUR STANCE……….

There's only so much that you can dismiss as senility. After that it's just stupidity and pandering…

McCain vs. Obama: The hero vs. the zero.

McCain is an old fool. He flip-flops on everything and panders to everyone. I don't think we can consider him an American because he wasn't even born in this country.

John McCain is a great American hero and, God willing, will be the next President of the United States instead of the Con. law instructor. But he's dead wrong about this.

Latinos will be back to support HRC in 2012….

As an immigrant and first time voter, I have experience all kinds of shenanigans from Republicans, and CNN (Lou Dobbs) when it comes to immigration issue. I am voting Obama no matter what McCain says. No immigrant in his/her right mind can vote for Republican party. If in doubt on anti-immigrant sentiments, watch Lou Dobbs tonight, and listen trash from from republicans such as Tancredo. Go Obama

Stop Lying McCain !!!YOU backed away from support for immigration reform when it became a political liability in the Republican primaries.

There's no difference between the candidates on immigration or building a wall. Quit trying to spin it McCain.

Mc Cain has a record not just pander talk….Latino's voted for Hillary because they knew where sge stood and had a record to back up "talk" Obama does not realize that an image is being created by the republicans even as we speak…its gradual but its building….
New Mexico and Nevada will be in Mc Cain winning column this fall–

remember folks john mccain senator 25 years the last 7 years supporting bush 95 percent of the time you know what they say YOU CANT TEACH AN OLD DOG NEW TRICKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Let me get this straight. He helped draft a bill and then voted against his own bill? Can you say flip flop? He doesn't even support his own legislation. He failed to mention that little detail in his own speech.

I wish these candidate would stop pandering. We have a serious problem in this country will illegal immigrants – it needs to be dealt with one way or the other. Hillary Clinton has the most measured approach and she did not have to pander to have Latino loyalty. DUMP OBAMA and BRING BACK HILLARY.

Comprehensive immigration reform…double talk for open the gates to ILLEGAL immigration.
