It's absolutely ludicrous to suggest that Senator Obama is an elitist when his upbringing is so much more modest than those of Senators Clinton or McCain.

AMAZING!

For the "No child left behind" bill you can search for an interview here on youtube (Barack Obama: No Child Left Behind). If I got that right he would modify the bill because standardized testing is bad, while tracking individual student progress and providing ressources for schools would be more likely to bring something good.

This guys is saying the things me and my family have been saying for years. I'm wholeheartedly behind Obama, and i've never before seen a canidate for president i've believed in like this.

Either he has amazing charisma, or he really is the best thing for this country.

Thank You Mr. Obama for your story.

It is the same hope that I held since I came to the US when I was 10 years old w/o any family. Its the same HOPE I give to all all American. Mr. Obama is the Beacon of HOPE for the WORLD!!!!

After the initial storm of this Clinton attack, when the dust settles and everybody has a chance to look at things more objetively, people will realize that while Obama's comment may have been worded clumsily, it's nowhere near as bad as the ruthlessness and political dishonesty with which Clinton exploited it to commit character assasination and to undermine her own Party for her self-interest.

Clinton, you represent everything we're tired of. Go away.

If Obama has the nomination stolen from him via superdelegates, there will be rioting in the streets. But more severe & profound than 68 because of the connected world we live in. People are fed up & emotionally invested in this election like never before. Something is going to give this election. Don't be supprised when Martial Law is called in by Bush if the cities burn. With the new & vast executive powers he has, the elections could be suspended indefenately. I hope I'm wrong. We shall see.

i know the guy that sang the national anthem there

[bronxmini]

He has written two books and both Time magazine and The New York Times have written articles about his mother who passed away in 1995 from cancer. There is lots of information out there about his American grandparents from Kansas - I believe his grandmother also passed - and his Kenyan father and grandmother (there's a youtube video with his grandma). His most influential family members would be his maternal family - his mother and grandparents - since his father left when he was 2 years old.
