There is only one person who's teh best, mayne. That's Eli Porter. We all know he did it.
Shouldn't we hold off on Barack's sainthood nomination until he's in office for at least a year.
I'm not a Bush or a McCain supporter either. Just a little skeptical of the choice of a jr. senator as our next president, which is why I'm holding all criticism/praise until at least 2010.
that man is god. I never saw color and I never felt that I was nething less than great. I always knew that if u wanted something u can get it. I say that to say, it is sad that it took this long for blacks or ne1 to realize that "YES WE CAN." We should have never allowed ourselves to be brought down by anyones fear. believing starts with self, faith comes with believing and change comes from faith in God. dis event needs to change lives, not the economy, hearts, not the destruction we r destined
Obama is not the closest thing to God, and I understand that may be used as an analogy, but please refrain from putting him newhere close to God. he is a politician and like all politicians they say what it takes to win. I do not believe ne1 goes in2 office to screw it up, they all have great intentions. Obamas intentions r great but they fall in line with all of the rest. This world is meant to be destroyed I just hope that him winning fill our heart with faith that there is a God to follow not
hey bro it is just a saying, realy! he cannot be God just because he is real, first of all. then check the date I posted my comment I was real excited. I dont think this could be related to Hitler at all: I'M Mexican and he is black; however both of us are part of the human race just like you and anyone else no mater color, gender, or age. Sorry if my comment bodered you, it was not meant for it. Best of all, it happenned in America.
To skullcandy4u : You're using your flag as a blindfold. As a non-American it's quite clear to most of us outside of your country (note: we do exist! Check a 'map') that Obama is the only hope your country has. And even he's going to have major difficulties.
union huh? id say you're english. once you get a democracy in your country tell us who will be best for ours. backwards ass monarchs gonna tell us how to do it? we left england, stay out of our politics, and go to a dentist.
I'm not english but the parliamentary system IS a democratic system. Last I looked the decision in 2000 regarding the American election would suggest that your country is the one having difficulty with democracy (not to mention that electing a father and a son as presidents means that the US is more of a monarchy). But hey, why are we letting FACTS get in the way of your rant?
Obama puts more policy in one speech than the republicans managed to string together during their entire convention. Also, if his eloquence is whipping over your head read his plans outlined on his website or look up his past voting record. I did. I'm not 100% in agreement with all that he supports but he's still a good match for me. When people say they don't know what he's about or that they don't understand his message that just highlights their own inability to follow simple discourse.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Obamas simple motto.
I will tax the successful,to help the stupid and the lazy.............
America has always been and always will be about self responsibility..........
McCain will win the south ,and one more Ohio size state and its over................270 the magic number.........................Oh I'm a former Clinton supporter,Independents for McCain..
He wants to move troops from Iraq TO Afghanistan and Pakistan.
The only CHANGE coming from ObombYa is his so called "anti-war" policies.
The only REAL candidates NOT in the CFR were the ones that were censored from FOX NOIZE and CNN... Ron Paul and Dennis Kucinich. Cynthia McKinney is who you should be looking into NOW!
You Obama 'tards are blindly helping to destroy this country. Wake up, he's just a charismatic politician you fools! He will CHANGE the country in unspeakable ways!
The part where you interjected nas' song with the little kids literary moved me.
60/5 stars man.
Sure, race shouldn't come into play on a political stage, but the fact that there's a good chance that this line will FINALLY be crossed is just the icing on the cake.
"also because of how host and how cool calm and collected he is, he seems like he wont crack under pressure
and its pretty awesome that he moked pot"
This is why democrats are tards. Nevermind the issues and his policies. Who has to time to look into those? I just want to know if he's cool with weed, and if he can look cool on camera.
edards clinton or obama were all great candidates and they were all refreshingly honest as opposed to all the uptight and uncofortable looking rebublican candidates
i liked obama but i as always more for hilary
and when she lost i was disapointed but then i saw a youtube video of his
"i inhaled that was the point"
so now im in full suport of this guy
mostly because i know he would make a great leader but
Dope Video! Yes!! "A change" is officially in FULL effect. CLEARLY EVERYBODY recognizes that or else there wouldnt be any controverted haters commenting on the platitude of this historical moment.
Obama="Sleazball"??? Come on now...poke ya lip back in and get over it!
Obama is bangin on the white house door like it or not. Get wit it or step aside.
Yes. Exactly my point. Precisely why I entrust government with as little responsibility over my well being as absolutely possible. Obama can't fix anything Bush could not fix. Stop entrusting politicians and entrust yourself. Democrats. The only thing worse than a republican(and I am one!)
(i think i messed up the sequence by deleting/reposting my last reply)
i agree that Obama is a politician, and he is far from my dream candidate (as alluded to in my "plumbing" video), but I don't think every politician is exactly the same, and it does make *some* difference which ones are in charge.. for most people it is not possible to live a life in which the government has no impact on our well-being, so these choices do matter, even if difference is in small increments of mediocrity
I will remain consistent. I don't want hollow promises. I don't want any promises. I want less intrusion. Less "helping" by large bureaucracies and while my "team" has sold me out since the republican revolution of 1994, I remain quite sure that most democrats are only in favor of more stupid methodologies that only enslave the very people they purport to help. It's a flawed thought process and your boy Obama is just another salesman selling crapola. Less is more. More for me, more for you
Oh, let's see. Tony Rezco. The reason he joined Wright's cjhirch was to further his political career. He's a standard political sleazball. Ultra standard liar.
Is that all you've got?? The Rezko connection is flimsy, and your assumption about his church is groundless conjecture you could make just as easily make about any politician's life choices.. if this is the best material haters can come up with, the race might be easier than I thought..
And whether or not you like Barack Obama... the door he knocked down is a HUGE step for African Americans, and every other minority group. Even if he loses in November, he's opened the door for other minorities to run, and maybe actually win the presidency in the future. Maybe my generation, maybe my baby niece's, but maybe we will get out of this "Old, White, and Male" standard that we've subconsiously created. That's huge, if nothing else.
Mixed and Black are not mutually exclusive. Neither Barack Obama nor I are ignoring our mothers when we refer to ourselves as Black. My white mother is quite proud of of her Black son. :)
No reason not to give your opinion! The thing about all the words we use to discuss race, including "mixed" and "black" (and "race"!) is that none of them have any fixed scientific basis, they are all fluid, subjective concepts. Social constructs. Which means there is no one correct answer to what any of those words mean. We can't talk effectively about race without understanding & respecting that many people find many different shades of meaning in these words, and each is equally "real".
Exactly. But a big chunk of me says that the mixed race experience is not the same as straight on black/asian/white/hispanic experience. I'm coming at it from the angle of an interracial relationship, rather than of a parent (yet) or a child.
This is why you have the podium, and why I'm just still working it out ;)
Every experience is unique. It's your experiences that define you. ..But your experiences don't define something greater than that. You can't base a view on the 'whole' solely by your personal experiences. Straight/mixed races certainly don't have defined "experiences" - it matters not who they are physically but what they admire emotionally; how they were raised and in what culture/society--- the demographics very much define who a person is and what they believe.
Absolutely, anyone who is mixed has a different experience in many ways.. but this only precludes self-identifying as Black if you assume that blackness is a singular experience..
(I don't mean that I think everyone who is mixed should always ID as black, either, it all depends what feels natural for you..)
I agree with you on the social construction aspect of it though.
To me it seems if it's a social construction I'm wondering if you can transcend "race" to just be human. Is it possible, or even ethical for me, as a so-called white person, to say to someone else they should transcend race when it defines who they are, especially when a part of their racial identity comes from a history of oppression?
yeah, in theory that should be possible, but in our american reality we can only transcend race after we remove all the concrete effects of its existence as a social construct, particularly in the form of historical and ongoing institutional racism.. attempting to transcend race without recognizing that as the first step generally requires entering a state of denial and willful obliviousness that can only achieved through the magic of white privilege :)
The difficult part of that is whites are both helped but ultimately oppressed by White Privilege. To paraphrase Tim Wise Whites are helped by inherited privilege in the short run but by not recognizing that the power structure uses race to maintain the status quo for it's own economic interests it prevents those poor whites from forming a class, with it's own shared inherent interests, with other oppressed minorities. For me it's getting past race to see the common interests to form a class.
