Obama

Yes Obama is staying of the limelight. I believe he is working out how to promote some of his undeclared agenda's. He wants to promote them as "reasonable" so must have the spin in place before they are made public.

Destiny

Destiny has bestowed leadership on the Mr President-elect l think it is high time he's given a lease of time to put his administration together for a better America

He Ok

You know, coming from a humble background he knows that he has to work twice as hard, to get the job done. His main strength is that he is a competent middle class manager.

Clearly he has a lot of material to go over. Let him be.

Hillary vs. Kerry for Secretary of State

There is a reason Kerry does not do well in general elections. He comes across as a real sour puss, lacking either humor or social graces. Massachusetts people are used to all that so they keep electing him. To put him in a diplomacy position as our face to the world would hardly be the best image for the US.

Of course I don't like Hillary either. Much too much baggage. Judicial Watch is still going after her with pending criminal charges for a variety of unsavory involvements. Innocent until proven guilty...sure, but is this the best America can do for this very high profile job and a member of the world community?

I would hope that President-Elect Obama might put aside his political debts for this particular job and choose someone that is both qualified and that represents the best and brightest of our great nation...instead of those already tagged as

"Losers".

Images

What is with these plastic images of the man Americans have just overwhelmingly elected their new President, US New & World Report? You're going the openly, blatantly racist circuit? Proudly racist?

How dare you.

You Guys Are Such Shills

LOL...

You media types can't even tell when you're being played. If he's quiet you say "it is good". If he was in public, I guarantee you would say "it is good". No matter what he does ... you are going to say "it is good". Now...be a good dog and go lay down. If you're quiet he might throw you a bone. LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLO

GM BAIL OUT

I think that GM Should be allowed to do Chapter 11 and receive DIP funds to reorganize.

GM'S advertising and Marketing Dept. should convience people to buy their cars.

It is unfortunate that the so called experts are dooming GM's future by saying that people will not buy GM cars. GM got it self in this mess by spending money it did not have. Top executives hurting everyone with their greed.

Solutions:

1. Gather together the best minds the company has

2. As for suggestions from all levels of employment

3 Figure out how to sell the company to the employes

4. Ask the millionare executives to donate 10% of their total income over the last three years to the reorganization.

5. Audit their tax records[ the top executives].

6. They can bail themselves out if they want it bad enough.

This is the greatest county in the world. We can achieve anything, but we must think before we act.

Thank you

It is only right for him to remain quiet. The media will blitz us so much that, it will make him as if he is already the president. And he insists to make sure we all and the world know, he is not in charge until noon on January 20th 2009.
