Will You Vote for Obama?

Will You Vote for Obama


  • Total voters
    83
Did you know that blacks voted for Kerry by over 90 %. Did you know they voted for Gore by similar amounts? Clinton over 80 % both elections. So why is it suddenly race when they do the same thing for Obama? Do you honestly think the percentage would have been different if Clinton had won the nomination? That whole 98 % thing has been thoroughly debunked numerous times.

Good job playing the race card though.

Given the choice between Hitlary's Schlong, John Edward's Hair Doo, or Barack Obama's Black Skin.......Obama didnt get 98% of the black vote......he only got 96%.....and it still wasnt !!!RACISM!!!

Ah okay I see where you're coming from, even if I don't entirely agree.

in the first few years of the ND the supremes struck down several major parts of the ND culminating with the Schechter poultry case. then FDR won a big landslide in 36 and threatened to pack the court the court then started affirming the unconstitutional ND nonsense. the commerce clause became a blank check for congress to act (does anyone really believe the founders intended the CC to allow the feds to prosecute you for growing weed on your own property to smoke or making a machine gun)
 
I probably won't vote for him, again. He essentially has the election locked up, unless he sires an illegitimate child, or kills someone, between now and then, it's his to lose. Also, I live in Massachusetts, so he'll get our electoral votes, anyhow.
 
the difference is not the percentage but the actual turnout

Which is not evidence of racism and not that big a shift in percentages. Badmutha is still factually wrong, and playing the race card.
 
Yes, other than that, and that remains to be fully implemented, doesn't it?

DADT will be gone before the year, EIT's are no more, WOT focused on Afghanistan, 2 liberal justices. I would call all this significant change. The health care reforms are the biggest changes however.
 
I'd agree with you if he hadn't campaigned on a platform for change. What fundamental changes has he really effected?

If he actually delivered on all of the promises he made, what would he have left to promise for next time?
 
I'm actually not too displeased with his presidency. I was worried with all his "ideals" he spouted about changing things, but it seems he is more pragmatic than idealistic which is fine with me. He's going to do certain things that you must do as a Democrat (i.e. promote liberal justices instead of conservative ones) but he doesn't seem bent on upsetting the apple cart for his ideals. His push for this style of healthcare reform is a big negative for me, but overall he's not as bad as I thought he would be.

It really depends on if he screws the pooch coupled with who runs against him. I'm more focused on spending my vote to keep republicans and blue dog dems in Congress to keep a check on his presidency (so long as they aren't complete morons.)

one of the things that was disturbing was black conservatives who said they were voting for sham wow because he was black. and CIncinnati the turnout by blacks was 20% higher than ever before. this cost some good GOP congressman his job as the obamabots basically voted dem down the line. he won this time as the obamabots didn't turn out because Obama was not on the ballot.

I also know that lots of wealthy whites-the country club pampered wife set for example-voted for Obama out of a sense of white guilt including my sister in law. when I asked her why she just gushed about "black president". I asked her what policies of his she liked and it was akin to asking Sarah Palin who the prime minister of Albania is
 
I'm not thrilled about it but in light of the other stellar choices, yeah, I'll vote for him.
 
Considering our Forefathers and The Founders stood against pretty much everything Obama stands for..........

.........anything that stops the DNC agenda........is as patriotic as it gets.

What if thwarting the DNC agenda were to result in the decimation of the human race. Would you still be for it?
 
Obama is not a moron. no matter how you cut it-a moron could not graduate magna cum laude from Harvard law. but Obama was not qualified to be a good president. he was not experienced as an executive and he had no real life experience that could compensate for that deficit. He was elected mainly because he was not scrutinized nearly enough by an adoring press that wanted him instead of hillary and john

Obama had as much legislative experience as Abe Lincoln.

Considering the DNC agenda can be classified as Anti-Human.........the question will never arise.

I'd keep that in mind if he ran against Lincoln

and some supreme court justices never went to law school

and when I was 19 I could run a faster mile than a bunch of guys who had won the olympic gold medal--at the turn of the century


not relevant today

Obama won because he was a cult of personality

not because he was the most qualified man-or woman-running

Let's say that the DNC agenda, through no intention of its own and against all logic and reason, somehow arrived at a policy that guaranteed the survival of the human race (by accident!), and thwarting that policy would guarantee human extinction, would you still oppose it?

I consider both Republicans and Democrats, but I am extremely dissatisfied with Obama. If anything I will be voting against him and not so much for another candidate as no candidates really share my views.

Well, let's be honest here: the only choice you and I get is whether the president is permissive of gay marriage and abortions or not. We don't get to vote on real stuff. So vote for whoever the Republicans drag out because that's going to be the guy who'll oppose gay marriage and abortions, and be done with it.

Many consider Lincoln to be our greatest president despite the fact he had no more legislative expreience than Obama, so your claim of inadequate exprerience doesn't hold water! :sun


"From the start of his political career, Obama seems to have modeled himself on Lincoln. Both were born in other states - Hawaii for Obama, Kentucky for Lincoln - before settling in Illinois. Each became a lawyer then served in the state legislature before serving a single term in Congress. Each rocketed onto the national political stage with powerful speeches and became commander-in-chief without any military experience."

I do think that they have more clout then that, and even with those too issues nothing gets done. I'm pro-life and pro-SSM so I guess I'm out of luck :lol:

Well I thought Lincoln was a terrible President, but if you are talking about his effectiveness in getting what he wanted done, the comparison would be a compliment.

you must be doing more than merely drinking the Obama koolaid to even suggest Obama is half is great as lincoln

That is yet to be seen by his remaining 5 years in office, but it is clear that he has equal or better qualifications to become as great as Lincoln did! :sun

Lincoln wasn't great. If Obama is anything like Lincoln was, he will be one of the most hated Presidents in the history of the United States of America.
 
Lincoln wasn't great.

Given your views, I'm not at all surprised you don't agree with the majority that consider him one of our greatest presidents. :sun
