    • Cutest darned President since JFK.
    • Smart enough to actually inhale.
    • A president named Barack Hussein Obama might convince the Muslims to stop killing us.
    • Has no policy positions, so he can't be wrong on any issues.
    • Promises to be most effective at the job, as soon as he figures out what the job is.

    hes intelligent, energetic, hes insipirational and very charasmatic.. i also agree with him on alot of issues, its gonna be sad tho when some people (hicks) over look him because of his name or his color.

    I'm hoping for Ron Paul but it doesnt seem likely since the media keeps promoting Hillary or Obama

    I dont agree with Obama's outlook on issues at all. Source: http://www.ontheissues.org

    He wants to give all illegal immigrants amnesty, and increase welfare and social services for these people. I dont agree with that, the last amnesty didnt work...all it does it encourage more illegal immigration into the country. He also supports affirmative action, which I view as reverse discrimination. He seems pretty shady, and more of a "media creation"

    affirmative action is the worst form of discrimination...if I was not white, why should I go to school and get a college education when I can get the same job without it???

    The problem with osamabama is that no one really knows where he stands on anything...this is going to be the reason that shrillary asks him to be her vp...

    I much prefer Edwards. I think its -awesome- that he is using his wife's breast cancer to raise campaign cash. That's a real politician.

    what was your first clue? Don't get me wrong, i'm not a racist...I just prefer equality for all....which means that I shouldn't be discriminated against if I have a higher education...education is an easy thing to get if you work hard, but thats the problem, most of these people that get jobs they don't deserve are just lazy.

    This isn't likely to happen. All politicians receive their money from the special interest groups. They're all bought and paid for.

    This actually brings up a good argument for term limits. Most of these politicians view congress as a "career" and not public service, as was intended by the founding fathers. Limiting the amount of time served in congress to a single 6 year term would do alot to fix the problems in our political system. People like Byrd and Thurmon have been on the hill since Noah was building the Ark.

    Yeah, but isn't affirmative action already dead?

    Racial quotas have been gone for a long long time.

    Penn & Teller's Bullshit did a great episode on WalMart. If you don't get ShowTime, P&T's BS really makes it worth subscribing.

    Okay, first of all, I'm all for making it illegal to give jobs to those that are here illegally. If companies stop hiring them, they'll stop coming. Pretty simple, mm?

    Oh, and the guy from that link companies does have a good point. Companies hire illegal immigrants because they're willing to work for less. I.e. Under minimum wage. For those illegals to then sue Walmart because they were 'cheated' out of the wage is just asinine.

    Rudy Giuliani ftw!

    This guy is awesome, and not even idiot liberals can deny his leadership during 9/11, or have all you morons forgotten about that?
