Barack Obama [+ favourites]

Opinions?

From what I see, he's trying to narrowly not upset stupid people by being sufficiently vague, but still has an aura of righteous devotion to some sort of logical morailty.

I get the impression that he's too pure and is gonna get assasinated.

Anyone else have an opinion?

I would also like to say that I get a boner watching his speeches.

Yes, well you see this is part of his seductive power...and in being able to be all things to all people.
Mr family man,
Mr Joe Public who uses ordinary transport,
Mr dutiful husband (his wife is a scary one-tough-cookie type).

Man, he is SO versatile I wouldn't be surprised to find him cooking with Nigella or Jamie Oliver next.
(Thinks...hmmm, could he be the antichrist that Armageddon has promised that all will love, and who will to lead the world forward into one global power?)

I must admit he is very likable...

Obama, well I have to admit after the sudden about face when show down with Bush. I have little faith in the democrats as I have faith in the unfaithfulness of the Republican party. Oh, well democracy is a grand illusion (theory) but it isn't practiced so it must be impracticable.

Obama doing some grass roots work on Yahoo Answers,
squeaky clean and following in the mode of Mandela.

Here is the original question he posted:

And I must add, he really does have a beautiful sounding voice for making speeches with!

He has garnered the support of those who have not a clue who he is, I am even incapable of making much comment on him due to his anonymity in most substantial terms.

However as of late, he has begun to show his true colors and has fallen from all graces in my eyes, primarily because Barack Obama is a person who supports aggression towards Iran and kneels to the Israeli lobbies.

Barack Obama calls Iran a 'threat'

Press TV
Friday, June 27, 2008

US Presidential hopeful Barack Obama calls the Islamic Republic of Iran a 'threat' during a word association game in a TV interview.

In an interview on Fox Business channel Thursday, Obama played a word association game, responding in rapid-fire to words thrown at him by the program anchor.

When given the word 'Iran' Obama responded by saying 'threat'. The Illinois Senator also described Republican Presidential hopeful John McCain as 'honorable'.

Earlier this month, Obama called Iran a threat when addressing the American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC).

(Article continues below)


quote:
"The danger from Iran is grave, it is real, and my goal will be to eliminate this threat," he told his audience at the gathering.

Obama also stressed that he would always keep the military option against Iran on the table to defend US security and its ally, Israel.



And if we end up with an Obama Clinton ticket than nothing else will need to be said for me, though I will still seek more. Cheney as vice president ruling in darkness has ended in the worst chapter of American history to date, Clinton would be just as bad.

Bilderburg ties and other secretive elite associations are indeed surfacing for those who are familiar with this side of politics and care.

Again it basically comes down to there not being an election worth having as it is rigged in terms of a no win candidate situation as usual.

And at this desperate stage of American and even world history, we indeed need real change, change Obama is not offering.

Obama is considered by most the united states the most libral senater at least those in politics. Surving in such a conseritve counrty and maintaining political power is impressive so my guess is that he learned to be so crimatic out of survial and learning to deal with conseritives in the senate. I do know what you mean though he speaks like a one would want there president to. As for the almost talking down to stupid people i think to be honest with you it is what a polition must due in order to have a chance at winning a election

Well I'm not all up to date on mainstream media at the moment, but it seems to me his gun control policies are being tucked under a rug at the moment. He pretty much wants to ban all handguns, particularly semi-automatic weapons... which to me says he understands nothing about guns.
