He's not racist! Did he say "I will not vote for a black man who happens to be Muslim or was Muslim"? No. He didn't. He just stated his opinion that there is deep-seated racism in America and that they, as a collective, will not vote for Obama because he is black and because his surname rhymes with "Osama".

Firstly, are you for real? :blink: :blink: :blink:

 

Secondly, the comment was not racist. Anyone with half a brain could see that he was not being racist. Oh and by the way, you can't spell "racist". If you're going to throw words like that at people - a deeply insulting label when it's not true - then you should at least know how to spell it.

 

Old? Not likely.

 

And you do need to improve your English skills. What school do you go to? Do they not teach you that it's very poor grammar to Use a Capital Letter At The Start Of Every Word? And also you can't spell. Wow... standards in schools have really gone down, haven't they?

 

In my country they have taught me a lot, seeing as I'm probably one of the smartest Celine Dion fans in the worrrrrld. :laugh:

 

And it's not funny that I take such a great interest in US politics at all seeing as I study international politics for my degree and I'm in a relationship with an American. Would you like me to talk about British politics? French? German? Australian? Cuban? Would you like me to talk about the politics of African nations? How about China? Because I can assure you I have solid knowledge of all I just listed.

 

Also, it's very ignorant of you if you can't understand why people outside of the US take an interest in America's political landscape. The US is the most powerful nation on Earth... it's constantly butting its nose into the affairs of other nations. If the US suffers then the world suffers. If the US goes into economic decline (a hair's-breadth away from recession right now!) then the world is well and truly ####ed.

Wow, Hillary actually won in California. In her mind, she must be thinking, "Try me, biatches (i.e. Oprah, Maria Shriver, Caroline Kennedy)." :laugh:

 

As for Incognito's claim of America's compulsion to meddle in the affairs of other countries, well, the Marcos dictatorship in the Philippines persisted for two decades due to American support and just recently, US senators came to our country to ventilate the issue of leftists allegedly being liquidated by the military in a *suspected* attempt to worsen public perception of Pres. Gloria Arroyo. There's a fair amount of suspicion that the US is looking for a way to punish her for energizing Philippine ties with China particularly on the trade front.

I'm glad Americans were not completely brainwashed in thinking this election was an episode of Oprah's 'favor things'. :laugh: And let's not forget Massachusetts being a big slap in the face to Ted Kennedy and John Kerry. :sofunny:

:bye1:

Listen I don't want to fight about this. You seem smart, since I'm so stupid and ignorant in the grammar sense (But I am truly in Advanced English and Literacy in High School) But I really don't want to clash in words. But I assure you that There is one thing that we have in common, and that is we both are big fan's of Celine our else we would not have put so much time in at this forum. You seem like a very smart women so when I say I that being a Muslim isn't the easiest thing right about now. I agree with you 100% Completely that the United States putt's input were it does not belong...The reason I say this is that I'm Muslim and if a Muslim person wanted to run for president, I want to believe so deeply he or she has an equal chance in elections, but I fear that the government and other sources are brain washing American's and possibly other people that all Muslims are bad and this simply not true. Not to say that all Muslim's are Good People because by all means that's not true. Just like not all Christans are good nor bad...in religon there is good and bad so....I don't know. But the important fact is that not all Muslim's are bad either so kind of see what I'm stressing about lately.....Oh by the way I tried not to use capital letters where they don't belong....And I know that you and I have clashed over words, but my school is truly a great school and the fact of the matter is that I don't write here in the forum the way I would write a Analsys or essay paper...Anyway I hope you understand what I'm saying and where I'm coming from and by the way I find it truly impressive that you are so much into all those countries politics hope you understand my view on things and I would like to apologize if I said anything to hurt you,

It's all good. :flowers2:

 

 

I have changed my mind and have decided that the best choice to win against McCain is Obama. Clinton is too much of a polarizing figure. So many people seem to loathe her. Who loathes Obama? Not many. He commands deep respect and interest from many, many people... Republican and Democrat. He could win and win in a big way against McCain. With Hillary it would be a struggle.

Posted

I Cant Stand McCain, But I Behind Hillary Right Now, but if Obama were to win the nomination I'm 100% For Him....because Voting for McCain is like voting for George W. Bush for 2 More terms....and this country can't have another GWB

-Nmj

Posted

So then it's Hillary or Obama, any democrat....And McCain is horrible

-Nmj

Posted
McCain is a moderate. He's nothing like Bush. McCain is one of the good guys... He's as good as a Republican can be. However, it is time for a CHANGE and the world needs the Republicans to be kicked out.
Posted

McCain has now unofficially won the GOP nomination so Barack is the Democrats only chance. Hillary has way too much dirt and it will hurt her if she's to win the Democratic nomination. She's failed her Health Care reform, she's got that Whitewater scandal, which will never die. People will say that she has something to do with Vince Foster's death. She's just not clean. She voted for the war... so much negative stuff hovering over her big head :fofolle:

 

She's just bad news all around.

Posted
People trying to get dirt on her didn't stop her from winning two terms in Senate. Obama's not that clean either with ties to Rezko. Also NY Times revealed that Obama had been tested by Republcians and failed. He supported nuclear energy. http://www.nytimes.com/2008/02/03/us/polit...amp;oref=slogin As far as the war vote goes, I don't understand how in Obama's mind John Kerry's war vote was irrelevent and he thought people should vote for Kerry anyway but somehow Hillary's vote is very relevent and people shouldn't vote for her because of it. After all he makes such a point of how is was SOOO against the war you'd think he wouldn't dare endorse someone who voted for it. As far as negativity goes the media plays a big part in that. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jz7sGyG3ErYThe media is bias and the Republicans have always been out to get her.

I think Hillary's interview with David Letterman recently was very good. Who was Vince Foster, by the way? Was he the White House official who was once romantically linked to her? :shrug:

Inspiration vs. Substance

By Joe Klein

 

"We are the ones we've been waiting for," Barack Obama said in yet another memorable election-night speech on Super-Confusing Tuesday. "We are the change that we seek." Waiting to hear what Obama has to say — win, lose or tie — has become the most anticipated event of any given primary night. The man's use of pronouns (never I), of inspirational language and of poetic meter — "WE are the CHANGE that we SEEK" — is unprecedented in recent memory. Yes, Ronald Reagan could give great set-piece speeches on grand occasions, and so could John F. Kennedy, but Obama's ability to toss one off, different each week, is simply breathtaking. His New Hampshire concession speech, with the refrain "Yes, We Can," was turned into a brilliant music video featuring an array of young, hip, talented and beautiful celebrities. The video, stark in black-and-white, raised an existential question for Democrats: How can you not be moved by this? How can you vote against the future?

 

And yet there was something just a wee bit creepy about the mass messianism — "We are the ones we've been waiting for" — of the Super Tuesday speech and the recent turn of the Obama campaign. "This time can be different because this campaign for the presidency of the United States of America is different. It's different not because of me. It's different because of you." That is not just maddeningly vague but also disingenuous: the campaign is entirely about Obama and his ability to inspire. Rather than focusing on any specific issue or cause — other than an amorphous desire for change — the message is becoming dangerously self-referential. The Obama campaign all too often is about how wonderful the Obama campaign is.

 

That is not unprecedented. It has echoes of Howard Dean's 2004 primary effort, although in Dean's case the propellant was substance, not rhetoric — the candidate's early courageous voice against the war. But Dean soon found that wasn't enough. In June 2003 he told me he needed to broaden his movement, reach out past the young and the academic and find a greater array of issues that could inspire working people. He never quite found that second act, and his campaign became about process, not substance: the hundreds of thousands of supporters signing up on the Internet, the millions of dollars raised. He lost track of the rest of the world; his campaign was about ... his campaign.

 

Obama would never be so tone-deaf, but he is facing a similar ceiling, a similar inability to speak to the working people of the Democratic Party (at least, those who are not African American) or find an issue, a specific issue, that distinguishes him from his opponent. And his opponent, Hillary Clinton, has proved herself tough, specific and reliable — qualities that become increasingly important as the economy teeters and as worries about the future gather in the land.

 

This has become an odd campaign for Democrats. There is good news ... and fear. The good news is that this time the people seem far more interested in their party than in the Republicans. On Super Tuesday, at least 15,417,521 voted Democratic, and 9,181,297 voted Republican. And more good news: both Obama and Clinton are very good candidates who hold similar positions on most issues, moderates who intend to reach out to Republicans after they are elected — although, given Clinton's undeserved reputation as a partisan operative, that may be a tougher sell for her than for Obama. But this is not a struggle for the ideological soul of the party. It may, however, be a struggle for the party's demographic soul — older voters vs. younger, information-age workers vs. industrial and service workers, wine vs. beer. There is also — and I will try to tread lightly here — the classic high school girl/boy differential: the note-taking, front-row girl grind vs. the charismatic, last-minute-cramming, preening male finesse artist. Both Clinton and Obama have difficulties reaching across those divides, and that is where the fear resides: neither candidate may prove strong or broad enough. As this campaign progresses, their weaknesses — the reasons for their inability to put away this nomination — are going to become more apparent than their strengths.

 

Clinton's strengths are most apparent in debates, which is why she is pressing to have one each week. She simply knows more than Obama does. In recent weeks, she has been far more likely to take questions from the press and public than Obama is. That appeals to voters more interested in results than in inspiration; it especially appeals to the middle-class women, juggling job and family, who are the demographic heart of the Democratic Party. Clinton's weaknesses are intractable. They are wrapped up in her husband, who nearly ruined her campaign in the two weeks after Iowa but seems to have been relegated to the back of the bus in recent days. And they are wrapped up in her age. She is a baby boomer, of a generation that has been notably obnoxious and unsuccessful in the public arena. Perhaps the most dreadful baby-boom political legacy has been the overconsulted, fanatically tactical, poll-driven campaign — and Clinton has suffered whenever she has emphasized tactics over substance. Her lame attempts to "go negative" on Obama have been almost entirely counterproductive. Her husband's attempts to paint Obama as a "race" candidate — his resort to the most toxic sort of old-fashioned politics — only reinforced the strangely desperate nature of their campaign. It was the very opposite of "Yes, We Can" politics.

 

Obama's strength is inspiration, and it's also his weakness. In the recent past, Democrats have favored candidates who offer meaty, detailed policy prescriptions — usually to the party's detriment — and that is not Obama's game. After his Iowa victory, his stump speech had become a soufflé untroubled by much substance of any sort. He has rectified that, to some extent. He now spends some time talking about the laments of average Americans he has met along the way; then he dives into a litany of solutions he has proposed to address the laments. But those are not nearly so convincing as Clinton's versions of the same; of course, Clinton has a tragic deficit when it comes to inspiration.

 

There is an odd, anachronistic formality to Obama's stump speech: it is always the same. It sets his audiences afire, but it does not reach very far beyond them. It is no accident that Obama is nearly invincible in caucus states, where the ability to mobilize a hard core of activists is key — but not so strong in primaries, where more diverse masses of people are involved. He should be very worried that this nomination is likely to be decided in the big working-class primary states of Ohio, Texas and Pennsylvania.

 

Then again, one of Obama's most effective lines is about the "craziness" of trying the same old thing in Washington "over and over and over again, and somehow expecting a different result." The first politician I ever heard use that line — weirdly attributed to everyone from Benjamin Franklin to Albert Einstein — was Bill Clinton. It is a sad but inescapable fact of this election that Bill and Hillary Clinton have now become "the same old thing" they once railed against. In a country where freshness is fetishized — and where a staggering 70% of the public is upset with the way things are today — the "same old thing" is not the place to be. Unless, of course, the next new thing turns out to be a mirage.

Fact Check: Sen. Obama Follows Hillary's Lead On Gulf Coast Recovery Plan

2/7/2008 1:03:02 PM

 

In May, Hillary introduced a comprehensive Gulf Coast Recovery Agenda.

 

Three months later, in August, Sen. Obama released a very similar proposal. Today, Sen. Obama "introduced" the same plan he released in August.

 

A comparison of the core elements of Hillary's plan and Sen. Obama's plan is below.

 

Cutting red tape

 

May 2007: Senator Clinton will cut red tape by streamlining the FEMA "project worksheet" project, by amending the Stafford Act, and by giving FEMA maximum flexibility in implementation. She will also elevate the federal rebuilding coordinator so that he or she reports directly to the President.

 

August 2007: Senator Obama will cut red tape by streamlining the FEMA application process and by altering/eliminating unnecessary regulations to give FEMA more flexibility. He will also elevate the federal rebuilding coordinator so that he or she reports directly to the President.

 

Health care

 

May 2007: Senator Clinton would provide financial incentives to skilled medical professionals to return to New Orleans and serve high need areas. She would deploy the Gulf Coast Corps to rebuild hospitals and clinics, especially those that serve the under- and uninsured. [she announced publicly during her May visit that she would rebuild Charity Hospital in downtown New Orleans, which serves the entire community.]

 

August 2007: Senator Obama would provide incentives to lure medical professionals back to the region. He would fight to establish a major medical complex in downtown New Orleans that would serve the entire community.

 

K-12 Education

 

May 2007: Senator Clinton would fill the large teacher shortage by recruiting skilled teachers though her Gulf Coast Corps. Senator Clinton would renovate and modernize school facilities so that they are modern, energy efficient, and free of lead, mold, and other pollutants.

 

August 2007: Senator Obama would work to recruit and retain top teaching talent for New Orleans schools and would help communities make necessary school infrastructure investments so all kids would have safe and supportive learning environments.

 

Public safety

 

May 2007: Senator Clinton would provide sufficient COPS and Byrne Grant funding to put 200 new police officers back on the beat and would work in partnership with local community leaders to deploy new crime-fighting technologies and methods. She would provide funding and technical assistance to help federal, state, and local leaders confront the challenge of interoperability across police departments and other law enforcement agencies.

 

August 2007: Senator Obama will establish a "COPS for Katrina" program to put new police officers on the street and to develop community-based crime fighting strategies. He would help federal, state, and local law enforcement agencies establish an integrated regional crime control partnership.

 

Housing

 

May 2007: Senator Clinton would convene a state-local-federal summit to resolve challenges confronting the Road Home program. She would work to expand the stock of affordable rental housing through a number of specific initiatives.

 

August 2007: Senator Obama would work with the state to approve all Road Home applications within two months and would work to increase the supply of rental property.

 

Jobs and economy

 

May 2007: Senator Clinton would create a Gulf Coast Corps that would directly hire thousands of workers and apprentices – especially locals and those who left but want to return – to complete priority public works projects.

 

August 2007: Senator Obama will fight to ensure more Katrina-related recovery or reconstruction activities can be done by local residents. These measures would ensure that Gulf Coast residents, and not big corporations, will rebuild their communities.

 

May 2007: Senator Clinton would support and extend federal incentives to stimulate a thriving Gulf Opportunity Zone and to support small businesses.

 

August 2007: Senator Obama would target tax incentives to lure businesses to the hardest hit areas of the Gulf Coast.

 

Hurricane protection

 

May 2007: Senator Clinton would order a stem-to-stern review of the Army Corps plans and progress and expedite construction of the levees and pumps. She would order the Corps to move to Category 5 protection over time. She would require the Corps and other agencies to integrate a wetlands restoration plan as a vital component of hurricane protection efforts.

 

August 2007: Senator Obama will have the levees and pumps to 100-year storm protection by 2011 and would ultimately move to Category 5 protection. He would help the Gulf Coast restore wetlands, marshes and barrier islands that are critical to tamping down the force of hurricanes. [The Corps released a study in July identifying 2011 as a target date. See NYT, 7/11.]

 

FEMA

 

May 2007: Senator Clinton would elevate FEMA to cabinet-level status (with the director reporting directly to her). She also proposed in late 2005 that Congress pass a law requiring the director to have professional emergency management experience. That proposal became law in 2006.

 

August 2007: Senator Obama would have the FEMA director report directly to President Obama, serve a six-year term, and have professional emergency management experience.

 

May 2007: Senator Clinton would add a Catastrophic Annex to the Stafford Act and direct FEMA to work with folks on the ground to develop preparedness and response plans and lines of authority.

 

August 2007: Senator Obama would work with emergency management officials, emergency responders and other experts to create a real National Response Plan. Transportation

 

May 2007: Senator Clinton would promote smart development by helping communities build environmentally friendly public transit systems.

 

August 2007: Senator Obama would help the New Orleans area develop regional transit partnerships.

 

National Insurance Reserve

 

May 2007: Senator Clinton announced at a campaign stop in Florida that she would work on legislation to create a national catastrophe fund. She introduced that legislation in the fall.

 

August 2007: Senator Obama would work with the insurance industry to set up an efficient catastrophe insurance "backstop."
