when asked in Washington where Barack was born she answered without hesitation "Kenya". That makes him inelligible to be President of the United States

HE MUST BE GOD CHOSEN. YES HE WILL MAKE IT; I THINK OBAMA IS THE ONE AMERICANS HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR ALL ALONG; LISTEN TO HIS VOICE WHEN HE SPEAKS, WATCH HIM WALK TALL; GOD BLESS AMERICA; GOD BLESS OBAMA N FAMILY.

I was sitting in front of the TV all day 11-4-08. I surfed from channel to channel keeping an eye on the elections. Martin Luther King had a dream. We all have waithed on the day that that dream would come true. Not just black people, but everyone that believed in the America dream as a whole. God knew when he was ready to make that great change for the people of America. As time passed and time came to a close of who was going to be our new elect President, my heart starting racing. I can't remember the last time I was so excited about anything. We need to give Barack a chance to show the world just what he can do. Black people have voted from the first time we were allowed to vote. We never looked at color, but of who could make changes for us all as Americans. I don't think it's fair that anyone who is against Obama, should have so much hatred toward him. I prayed for this day to come and I think we all will see great changes for everyone, not just Americans. Ignorance should be kept in the home and not be allowed to be public. We continue to pray for Obama and his family as they make their transitions into the White House.

I'll cut you some slack when picking on politicians; but come on. Picking on a 84 year old women, confused over where her step-grandson was born? And then cooking up a conspiracy theory to back it up? This has been the most sadly abusive election this 56 year old man has seen. 1. Refuse to watch anything featuring Apple Computer's "tear Windows down to a size I feel comfortable with" ads. 2. Stop pushing little old ladies in front of busses. 3. Come to grips with the facts that the media is selling you to advertisers and using (cooking) bad news to offset the goodnews of advertising. 4. Try kindness.

It does not matter who wins this election. Because any president has to follow the set up rules and apart from tht the people around him in the administration influence him too much.
But we we as voters must utilize our vote in this election to choose the best among the two pull the country out from the big mess which it is in. Thanks

Where is the picture of the school named after him or for that matter any philantropic edifices he may have ercted in his ancestral home (village?)
Much has been made of not reporting on him enough, is this all you can do? A gallery is just four pictures biased towards slur?
From you own reporting- did you note how pretty savy the old woman was?Just like his aunt in Boston.
The world sees something special, you and some Americans engage in racial profilling and hate.
So much for "In God we trust" if some are Gods's children and others are not!
