Not Happy with DNC Decision

Exercise your right at the ballot box to vote for the Candidate of your choice:

Write in Hillary Clinton for President

Send a clear message that the democratic process must be followed and not curtailed into a sham vote the way that it went down at the National Convention. The National Committee must never be allowed to get away with dictating the voting or who the winner will be in a close race.

QBAMA/BIDEN. THE WINNING TEAM

I do not want anybody to be fooled by McCains choice of a woman for a running mate. We know why, Clintons female suporters know beter, they wont be fooled by this bait.

All democrats and indeed all Americans should follow their concience come November.

With Obama/Biden vs McCain/Palin

There is no question in my mind that the ONLY reason McCain pulled the goverenor of Alaska for his "running mate" is to show Obama that a woman can be on the ticket. Well guess what? He gave himself the best birthday present of all and that was to put himself on the back burner for President as Obama and Biden cannot be overrun. Yes, I was a supporter of Hillary but had to overcome her decision and up until McCain introduced his running mate, I was not sure who to vote for but now my mind is made up.

GO OBAMA and good luck. We, the american people, need a change, need to get change from the grocery store, and need to be able to afford gas to take our family for a ride as my dad and mom did with us each and every Sunday after church.

I send blessings to Obama and Biden and pray that they stay on the right track and overcome the problems we have had for 8 years building, and knock down the wall of impoverty and hungry families. We need insurance, to be able to afford our medications, and to be able to once again become a happy family.

Barack-Change for the whole world

Come November when Barack Obama is elected the president of America, Other countries will follow suit. Many countries desparately need change for the better

go Obama Go!!

USA PRESIDENT- OBAMA, Barack

I beleive now that USA will be well respected, honoured and taken seriouly as a country of peace not a WAR hungry power nation under Democrat administration. In the last eigth years, Americans are dying in Iraq,Afganistan and other places.Americans young children,the future leaders of the world are dying. Democrats will put a full stop to it.

O B A M A THE RIGTH CHOICE FOR AMERICA AND INDEED THE WORLD AS WHOLE.GOD BLESS AMERICA GOD BLESS OBAMA.

Obama, the next presidente of The USA.

As a citizen of the third world. iam happy because we hope that Obama wil be a pressident not only for United States, but also for the whole world. He is the man for the peace.

That god bless you, OBAMA.

CONVENTION

AMAZING SPEECH BY BILL CLINTON BUT IT HAS TO BE SAID THAT OBAMA MUST TAKE EXTREME CARE FROM NOW ON AS I CAN SEE THE DIRTY SIDE OF AMERICA I.E. SOME DISSAFFECTED POWERFUL INTEREST HAVING HIM ASSINATED. BEST OF LUCK BARACK AND JOE, THE WORLD IS HOLDING ITS BREATH!!!!!!

Passing of Torch

It seems to me that Bill Clinton has been trying to pass the ball ever since he left office. He tried to pass it on to Al Gore, then John Kerry. Both failed. Now it's Obama's turn. Don't drop the pass. Obama has the backing of the media and now the entire Democratic Party and the back drop of a bad economy. If he drops the pass, he'll look like the biggest fumbler in history.

La La La La I can't hear you.....

Alas, if only Brother Bill had given his speech wearing a tutu to complete the image of the fairy tale we are now all about to enter. Did I say fairy tale? Try nightmare. Oh Boo Hoo, we made an Oh Boo Boo
