constitutional law for a few years. 12 years in
the Illinois legislature and a couple years as
a US senatory. The man has character and
intelligence. Things lacking in his opponent.
Think on this:

His intelligence and education do NOT make him
qualified to be president.

Gosh, do you want another Bush? He and a LOT of
his fellow Republicans take GREAT PRIDE in their
IGNORANCE and poor college grades.

Even with all his deferments, I don't think Dick
Cheney even graduated from college, did he?

And then there is John McCain who somehow BARELY
escaped graduating at the very BOTTOM of his
class at the Navy Academy. He was even worse as
a pilot and did not take flying and learning his
aircraft seriously. I guess that makes him VERY
qualified in your book. Hardy har har har :-)

Oh, I see now. Obama does not have "Executive
Experience" -- like, ah well let me see, one
George W. Bush. Let me see, how many companies
did he run into the ground as CEO - and - he does
have "presidential experience". Gosh, I guess
you must think he is most qualified to continue
in office. Maybe he should push for a
constitutional amendment to give him a third
term. Wait - the next best thing - a McCain
presidency - Hardy har har har.

Electing someone
solely because they look good, sound good, smell
good,

Tell it to Ronald Reagan.

and is one of the intelluctual elite is a
recipe for disastor. Hitler looked good, sounded
good, smelled good, and look what he did?

Yeah but can he see Russia from his house?

Huh? HUH?

June,
Your comments here are not incorrect, but they are irrelevant. It's not
about the man. It is about policy, beliefs and the trust in the honesty he
speaks. History has taught this lesson many times over.

What if things were switched around.....think about it. Would the
country's collective point of view be different?
Could racism be the culprit? Ponder the following:



What if Barack Obama finished fifth from the bottom of his graduating
class as did John McCain?

What if McCain had only married once, and Obama was a divorcee?

What if Obama was the candidate who left his first wife after a severe
disfiguring car accident, which McCain did.?

What if Obama had met his second wife in a bar and had a long affair
while
he was still married, which McCain did.?

What if Michelle Obama was the wife who not only became addicted to
pain
killers but also acquired them illegally through her charitable
organization, instead of Cindy McCain?


What if Obama had been a member of the Keating Five and been chastised
by his peers, as was McCain.?
(The Keating Five were five United States Senators accused of
corruption
in 1989, igniting a major political scandal as part of the larger
Savings
and Loan crisis of the late 1980s and early 1990s.)

What if McCain was a charismatic, eloquent speaker?

What if Obama couldn't read from a teleprompter?

What if Obama was the one who had military experience that included
discipline problems and a record of crashing seven planes?

What if Obama was the one who was known to display publicly, on many
occasions, a serious anger management problem, including calling his
wife a c**t in front of a group of reporters?

What if Michelle Obama's family had made their millions from beer
distribution?

What if the Obamas had adopted a white child?


What if Obama was 72 years old with 4 bouts of cancer behind him,who
is periodically showing signs of confusion because of what some have
said is the onset of dementia, and irresponsibly picked the least
qualified VP choice and without even properly vetting her, as did
McCain.

You could easily add to this list. If these questions reflected
reality,
do you really believe the election numbers would be as close as they
are?

This is what racism does. It covers up, rationalizes and minimizes
positive qualities in one candidate and emphasizes negative qualities
in
another when there is a color difference.

Educational Background:

Barack Obama:
Columbia University - B.A. Political Science with a Specialization in
International Relations.
Harvard - Juris Doctor (J.D.) Magna Cum Laude

Joseph Biden:
University of Delaware - B.A. in History and B.A. in Political
Science.
Syracuse University College of Law - Juris Doctor (J.D.)

vs.

John McCain:
United States Naval Academy - Class rank: 894 of 899

Sarah Palin:
Hawaii Pacific University - 1 semester (left because she didn't like
the weather)
North Idaho College - 2 semesters - general study
University of Idaho - 2 semesters - journalism
Matanuska-Susitna College - 1 semester
University of Idaho - 3 semesters - B.A. in Journalism

Education isn't everything, but this is about the two highest offices
in
the land as well as our standing in the world. You make the call.

He even taught
constitutional law for a few years.

Hmmm., those who can't do... teach.

Being a law school professor is hardly something to be ashamed of, let
alone discounted and ridiculed.

He could've practiced law, but then you'd complain about him being a
lawyer.

No matter what he has accomplished in life, you will never give him
credit for them.

Are you a racist or just unwilling to acknowledge one achievements?

Tom

Ah yes, the specious 'racist' argument. Anyone daring to criticize their
almighty Obama must be a racist.

Hardly. I'm just not interested in seeing someone with so few creditials
suitable for the job be elected to it. That his ass happens to be black has
nothing to do with it. Shame on you for trying to insinuate otherwise.
Who's the closest racist here, you, more likely.

It's racist because you say this about Obama without a comment on
Palin's lack of experience outside of her few months as governor...a few
months marked by abuses of power and questionable claims.

And there are Republicans who agree with me.

I didn't insinuate anything. I asked a question.

Feel free to ask any of the black people I work with if I'm a racist.
I'll be happy to provide contact info via e-mail.

Your refusal to acknowledge his accomplishments make you look like a
doofus. You don't have to agree with him, but you can't logically
dismiss his educational or scholarly achievements.

What do you think the creditials suitable for the job of President
are?

No doubt they will be playing "Hail to the Thief" whenever King Obama
enters a room. Throughout his career, such as it is, Obama's ONLY
skill has been taking money from people who earned it and giving it to
people who did NOT earn it.

That's it.

That is Obama's "qualification" for higher office.

Apart from stealing money, Obama, like all of his political ilk, will,
and take this as a FACT, steal freedoms from the American people.
Already his strongmen are trying to silence the press. Newspapers that
endorsed McCain have been punished by being removed from the Obama
campaign plane. Poor old Joe the Plumber, whose only crime was that he
spoke his mind, IMMEDIATELY became a victim of the Obama attack
machine, which ILLEGALLY used government data bases to try to
discredit poor Joe.

Look to Hugo Chavez in Venezuela for a preview of what the Commander
and Thief will bring to America.

If you vote for this monstrosity, you truly deserve the country that
you are going to get. Mark my words.


And of course, you have proof of this thievery.

I can't wait to see it so I can say because of you, I will vote for
McCain.

Bring it on... change my vote.
