Listen,where do you people come from? this country wants love, which is not just love for your family,friends neighbors, co-workers but love is also love for our country and we need love for our country as well as love for our enemenies. if mc cain can straighten out this country with our enemies than we will have that love . this counrty will have less hatred, and crime and more love as we want more love in our lives for our families. I believe that when this happens then we will know what our counrty stands for and will have and that is freedom, and love. yes our country needs a better ecomony, more jobs, better health plan that will profit us more in the long run than , not just something that will be a short term thing. we have our children to look out for as well as our grandchildren and our parents well being. we don't want to lose our homes and have higher taxes than we can afford to pay. I believe that when mc cain straightenes out this mess with our other counteries, and we will have peace in the usa . I hope each one of you will think alot about who you choose for our next president. LOVE IS THE SAME AS FREEDMON<

It is very interesting that most of the comments about race have been and I quote "granchildren has a chance of becoming a "POTUS". If he looses, then it is back to "WHITE IS RIGHT", BLACK STAND BACK " ideology. What a shame" (Yes I copied it as was written). If people want equal rights then vote for the man and not the color. White or black!

100% OBAMA. A CHANCE NEEDS TO BE MADE "PRONTO" .. AND THE SAME CHANGE IN THE BIG SHOULD APPLY TO THE LOCAL GOVERNMENT HOUSE & COMPANIES.. WERE THE PERSON THAT WORKS THE MOST MAKES LESS AND THE ONE THAT DOES THE LEAST EFFORT GETS REWARDED AND PROMOTED .. ENOUGH IS ENOUGH!

I PRAY THE UNITED STATES PEOPLE PAY CLOSER ATTENTION TO OBAMA

and HIS RECORD OF COMPANY HE KEEPS. YOU RUN WITH DOGS THEN MORE THAN LIKELY YOU HAVE SOMETHING IN COMMON WITH THEM. HE ONLY SEPERATED HIMSELF FROM PEOPLE, CHURCHES AND "FRIENDS" BECAUSE HE GOT CAUGHT. WHY CAN'T ANYONE SEE THIS???

J. JONES of TX 6:42PM October 04, 2008

I don't understand why people are all for Obama. He sounds so great but, has no respect at all for this country. I dont see where you get all this stuff down. His friends were a terrorist, and a mob leader. He denies all contact with them but is some how connected by them. Facts are there to prove what is correct. Some Martin Luther King Jr quotes. "A lie cannot live." "A man who won't die for something is not fit to live." "A nation or civilization that continues to produce soft-minded men purchases its own spiritual death on the installment plan." "All labor that uplifts humanity has dignity and importance and should be undertaken with painstaking excellence."" He who passively accepts evil is as much involved in it as he who helps to perpetrate it. He who accepts evil without protesting against it is really cooperating with it."

Those are some quotes by Martin Luther King jr. a great man of morals and justice. Of all of obamas fake justice and rights, he lied about his family, no respect for the flag, once to talk to terrorist and more people to depend on the goverment and no freedom. I want to be independent. Look Bush spent most of the money he was from Republican side, yes we all know that, but is he McCain? Does he have the same ideas of making america in more debt? That man will die for this country 100x more than this so called "Obama" will ever do. Another Martin Luther King jr's quote, "Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere." I don't want a liar as a president, someone who is inexperienced to be a president, someone who looks serious but is behind a mask. I want someone who shows the truth and can joke about to calm the situation down. Its funny how people say its "White racism" because McCain victory of over 10% in a popular vote. It just shows how racist you are to be bringing up the topic, another quote from my hero Martin Luther King Jr. is "I look to a day when people will not be judged by the color of their skin, but by the content of their character." But what do we have here, people talking about the past that doesn't connect to this part of the present or future. We are voting for McCain for his character not for his skin. History will always repeat, we know that, but people "change" to overcome it. People are people, you are you, yourself, if you dont understand your foe, you don't understand yourself. Racism isn't the distraction for voting for McCain, its his justice.

I think Obama should win cuz he is going to help give us middle class people money to pay for the house bills so our houses don't get forclosed. And he has many other ideas that are better than Mcain's ideas. So Obama should win the presidentsy.

Heather Whiting of AZ 1:36PM September 29, 2008

NEVER in my lifetime will I vote for a baby killing Muslim. His middle name is enough to scare the pants off most reasonable people. McCain has more experience in his little pinky than Obama has in his whole body. For crying out loud Obama does not even know how many states there are in the USA......he is not fit to be a senator much less a President.

ProudSoutherner of NC 6:55PM September 25, 2008

just a warning : I'm french - the socialism's years had let our country totally devastated... don't believe what obama or the democratics wants to show or to tell you about the benefits of a social politic... try to read french newspapers, try to watch french tv news... TAKE FOREIGN INFORMATIONS REGARDING COUNTRY WITH A "SOCIAL POLITIC" BY YOURSELF, because your leader is liying to all of you : in reality, in france, health system is defeated, retiring plan is low, more of 7 % of inemployment, lot of money spent for people NOT FRENCH CITIZEN (but french citizen pay for !), an employee cost a lot for a boss (44 % of charges), too much syndicalism result too much strike, and economy very low - OPEN YOUR EYES BY YOURSELF AND BE BRAVE TO SEE OVER THE OCEAN WHAT IT IS HAPPENING IN EUROPE ... AND YOU'LL UNDERSTAND - cordialy,

veronique of 4:02AM September 23, 2008

What we find unbelievable, and the unwashed masses will agree with us by election day, is that the democrat party could so far have lost its way as to nominate abby hoffman in blackface for the presidency. Though his supporters only care about his race, his detractors care not a whit: Our opposition is due to the fact that your nominee is a radical left-wing ideologue. Strangely, his only hope is that since he has attempted little and accomplished less, many don't yet know what he is. Our team will make sure they are educated real well. Stay tuned to your TV this October.
