puerto rico

i am a native Puerto Rican and its a big possibility obama could win Puerto Rico.

obama is endorsed by almost all majors politicians including the gov.

REMEMBER people stop assuming that Hillary won in big the united states especially with Mexicans will translate with us puerto ricons here on our island. ALSO you guys should also know that Latinos come in different ethnicities. puerto ricans are a melting pot of cultures and people of taino which is indian, black and white and were a lot less unbias here then the united states.

but for right now hillary might have the advantage soley cause of her last name and that is about it.

Repartions Check

Repartions Check???????? Is that why some 90% blacks have been voting for Obama...they think if he is elected they will get a "Repartions Check"???? If that is what Obama has led you to believe you are in for a great big surprise. If Obama were elected there would still not be any "Repartions Check" at all..........although that would explain why some 90% of blacks have been voting for him ......but he has out and out lied to you if he made such a claim or even if he said it was a maybe. Now concern yourself with why would Hillary help any black community after you all have allowed Obama to play the race card against people like Bill Clinton and Ms. Ferraro for simply stating facts......Obama will never win and if he loses NC (he may) then he will not even get to be Hillary's VP..........so after the way balcks have behaved in this primary again I ask Why would Hillary do anything for black communities again??? Start voting with your heads instead of looking for another welfare check.

Hillary Clinton

My husband, daughter, son and I all voted for Hillary, we want good times for all Americans to come back after these horrible inflated times. My family and I want the oil and food surplus's back, we want gas back to $1.29, we want 50 pounds of flour that costs over $30 dollars back down to $12.50 per 50 pounds etc. etc. Obama is an unknown with witty words and they are just well written speech's. My family and I survived 8 good years with the Clintons and definately welcome 4 more years of the same. John McCain everyone forgets was in that Keating 5 scandal tied in with 4 other Senator's and Neal Bush. Everyone have amnesia? McSame McCain is a fitting words for him and good lord, we cannot take much more of inflated costs.

It's Time

IT'S TIME AMERICA:

It’s time for everyone to face the truth. Barack Obama has no real chance of winning the national election in November at this time. His crushing defeat in Pennsylvania makes that fact crystal clear. His best, and only real chance of winning in November is on a ticket with Hillary Clinton as her VP.

Hillary Clinton seemed almost somber at her victory speech. As if part of her was hoping Obama could have defeated her. And proved he had some chance of winning against the republican attack machine, and their unlimited money, and resources. In all honesty. I felt some of that too.

But it is absolutely essential that the democrats take back the Whitehouse in November. America, and the American people are in a very desperate condition now. And the whole World has been doing all that they can to help keep us propped up.

Hillary Clinton say’s that the heat, and decisions in the Whitehouse are much tougher than the ones on the campaign trail. But I think Mr. Obama faces a test of whether he has what it takes to be a commander and chief by facing the difficult facts, and the truth before him. And by doing what is best for the American people by dropping out of the race, and offering his whole hearted assistance to Hillary Clinton to help her take back the Whitehouse for the American people, and the World.

Mr. Obama is a great speaker. And I am confident he can explain to the American people the need, and wisdom of such a personal sacrifice for them. It should be clear to everyone by now that Hillary Clinton is fighting her heart out for the American people. She has known for a long time that Mr. Obama can not win this November. You have to remember that the Clinton’s have won the Whitehouse twice before. They know what it takes.

If Mr. Obama fails his test of commander and chief we can only hope that Hillary Clinton can continue her heroic fight for the American people. And that she prevails. She will need all the continual support and help we can give her. She may fight like a superhuman. But she is only human.

Huh?

It is highly unlikely Hillary Clinton will win. She does not have enough delegates and when she does win states the margins are too close. Barak set out to do one thing in PA and that is cut into Hillary's lead. He did that. She only one by a 10% margin and that was her strongest state with the most delegates. She can't win. Sorry. The only way she can win is to get the super delegates to vote her in.

When Obama wins a state he usually wins it by a huge margin. He will probably win all the rest of the primaries with the exception of Puerto Rico. The only one that will be close will be Indiana. He will probably clobber her in the other states.

She's out of money. Even though she raised money right after her win in PA, her campaign is in debt. She can't manage her campaign money and we want her for President? Hmm....

Hillasry war on Iran

Bad statement ,Or she has to say it to get money from war mongers.She needs money will sell her soul now. Irag war immoral and those that support it are sick. This people our sons of the grim reaper. Hillary now belong to them along with mcCain.

Count on Hillary

Finally the corner has been turned and Hillary is on her way to the White House! We always knew you were a fighter and would whatever was necessary to fight for the people.

Even back in Arkansas you stood up to those who tried to ruin the state's reputation by trying to make something of Bill's rumored affairs. You stood by your man and the people of Arkansas, shut down the talk, and showed your opponents what you were made of.

When you got to the White House you didn’t forget where you came from and helped the people of the good state of Arkansas. You did everything you could to be sure that any investors in the Whitewater real estate investment opportunity didn’t lose the investment money they worked so hard for. It took years but you didn’t quit because you are a fighter, and in the end, you won.

You never stopped fighting. Even though you knew your intentions would be misinterpreted by the rabid press, you knew you had to remove those Travel Office beaurocrats who were just wasting taxpayer money. It just made plain sense to put your own people in because you knew you could count on them. Your loyalty to your friends is inspirational!

You and Bill are always thinking ahead in your commitment to the American people. For decades the Congress had been dominated by the same old ‘business as usual’ politicians. You knew it was time for change and everything you did in your administration encouraged it. And when the 1994 elections were over we had a whole new Congress! Even though they were all Republicans, you and Bill were in the White House and in charge. You could reach across the aisle and lead the way forward with your vision of the future.

With greatness comes adversity and you rose to the challenge. Many people were afraid of your ‘yes we will!’ vision of the country and tried to put roadblocks in your way. It was amazing how low people would go to try to destroy you and Bill. They tried to manufacture that story about Johnny Chung, and how the head of the Chinese military intelligence gave him $300,000 to help you and Bill get re-elected. But you persevered and in the end you were vindicated when the FBI found it was only $20,000 in non-legal contributions that he made.

You have proved yourself over and over to the American people. When Bill was duped by Monica Lewinsky, you knew he was only trying to help out what he thought was a young, bright intern by showing her how great national service could be. He couldn’t know that she didn’t possess the most important character trait needed for political life – that you must always protect national secrets. She didn’t remember that old saying that loose lips sink ships.

As always, though, you came to the aid of your country. After all the guilt he had that he could have been so naïve when he was only trying to help someone get ahead, I’m sure it was you who contacted Reverend Wright and had him counsel Bill (I don’t blame you for calling on him, because back then, he was known as a great religious person and a respected theologian and all those videos of him weren’t around yet).

You were always very tuned into God, and you have always followed your faith, like the example you set when you joined The Fellowship back in 1993. You had the foresight to see that the message of faith could only be spread through power. You reached with other members like Rick Santorum to follow in the footsteps of past Fellowship members like Duvalier of Haiti, Park of South Korea, Martinez of Honduras, and Barre of Somalia. Some called them dictators but you in the Fellowship knew they were leaders of strength.

And when it was time for you and Bill to finally leave the White House you knew you were not done. There was so much more opportunity in this great nation, and the fight had to continue. You chose to run for the Senate and work with those you brought to power those many years ago. Together you sought out tyranny in Iraq and put our country on a path that will be remembered throughout history.

Now it’s your turn to do for America as much as your great husband Bill did. The circle will be complete and the days of the past will again forever change the future. How fantastic it will be to have both you and Bill in control again. It’s something that can hardly be imagined!

Continue your fight. Do whatever it takes. We all know that you are up to it, and as you always tell us – Count on Hillary!

Not only can she do it, but we know she most certainly will!

Obama

Obama is our Savior. Obama, Ayers, and Reverend Wright are Right! God D*** america! The stupid, bitter, racist "typical white people" of pennsylvannia voted for clinton. How disgusting. They ignored their opportunnity to redeem themselves for their racist past - slavery - and finally make Michelle proud. How sad. Please no hater responses, but do please stop buying guns you biiter small town hicks, and save it for my reparations check! Obama '08, Repartions Check, '09!
