BARACK OBAMA = A GOOD ROLE MODEL FOR BLACK PEOPLE!!! Because… he doesn't fit stereotypes…

HE NEVER BEEN TO JAIL
HE DON'T SELL OUT ON HIS RACE (DATING WHITE WOMEN EXCLUSIVELY) even when he is mixed race, he could have easy ignored his black side, like Lenny Kravitz,
he still loves his minority heritage.. even after his black father left him
HE ISN'T IGNORANT
HE BELIEVES IN EQUALITY FOR ALL RACES NOT JUST BLACKS..
HE'S STILL WITH HIS FAMILY, HE HASN'T LEFT HIS WIFE TO BE A SINGLE MOTHER..

shit, fool, anyONE can LOOK presidential, it's is ther actions that make them a president.
and why does he pick ebony magazine as the election gets closer? he is going to be worse than bush. as bad as hitler, most likely.
oh and obama, trying to be jfk. guess what! jfk was assissinated and was a crappy lying president in truth!
and michelle is far from jackie o. please.

He looks very handsome and professional but I think the story he's featured in is wrong. Barack Obama, a presidential candidate shouldn't be on a cool list, well not on Ebony magazine at least. The magazine is geared toward an older generation and I don't think that they would want to see Obama as cool. Just my opinion.

Gary says – reply to this

It'sad to say, but I would vote for John Mccain befor I would ever vote for this NO NOTHING NO BODY. The ONLY reason he is where is because of Oprah and her big mouth. I wonder if she'll clean up the mess he makes after his term is over. If people think GW Bush was a disaster, just wait until this idiot gets elected.

Re: Jason –
his mothers side of the family was where he got his education from, and without tthem he would be nothing but he shunned them for the most part. why? because he is racist.
Monke says – reply to this

20

He's all talk and no action. He's shifty and steals his speeches from other people. He can't even come up with anything original. Hillary would have been much better. at least she has balls!!! He's just another Tony Blair, all charisma and personality but no real idea of how to run a country.

As usual these people win votes on celebrity-type adoration rather than on real policies that affect real people. More fool you idiot Americans!!!

Re: cinno –

Get a bloody grip you moron. The troubles in NI were caused by partisan fools and quite frankly the rest of the UK are fed up of hearing how bad things were for you. You caused it and continue it with your own forms of segregation now! Just try walking through somewhere like Andersonstown if you're protestant. Sod off back under your rock because no-one cares about what you think or who you want as president!!!!

People need to remember the "CHURCH" he attended for over 15 years with his family and how fanatical and racist that groupis. The church he says he attended frequently and was marrried in and had his children baptized in and yet "never knew" about the fanatical views of his minister, Rev Wright… Any way you look at it he is a HUGE LIAR and more than likely just as racist and fanatical as his "former" minister. It's weird though since he's half white. People are just being PC and voting for him because he is black (half black actually). They think if they vote against him people will accuse them of being racist. There are many other black Americans FAR more qulalfied to be president.

Re: jasim – The National polls for the last month ALL show obama leading/ beating mcsame by 5% to up to 15% with most shoing a 12-15% lead for Obama. Individual polls in places like Virgina and Montana (former repub strongholds) show Obama beating mccain by 5%-7%. Mcsame has already lost. Mcsame knows this due to the fact that he has now switched his campaign manager for the 3rd tme. Obama still has Axelord. Hillary herself switched her campaign manager 2 times. mcsame has switched 3 times and probably will switch again at a later date. Mcsame has already lost

35

Pray to God he doesn't get in, he's a big fake that only parrots other people, going with the flow, the classic bag of wind politician that talks of "change" with no experience- a terrific flip flopper, adjusting his opinions as he goes along according to what he thinks will sound good. If he didn't have a teleprompter and a crowd of cheerleaders he would flounder. He's afraid to debate McCain as he knows he would look foolish, so that will never happen.
Jimmy says – reply to this

36

Re: Gary – stop the bs and just admit you won't for him because he is 1/2 black. Does't matter anyway. All the polls have been showing Obama beating mcsame for quite a while. mcsame has switched his campaignhead for the 3rd time now. A BAD!!!! sign

Re: Lelia – LOL mcsame is the manchurian candidate if there ever was one. The majority of vets from that time period have always believed mcshame was brainwashed by the enemy. Heck he made a few vids for them denouncing america while a prisoner. Many vets believe that if mcshame become president , he will recieve a 3:00 am phone call that will just say on word = his trigger and the manchurian brainwashed mcshame will activate and destroy america.

mccain is just some hick war hero with connections. he also left his first wife because she was in an accident and became disfigured. classy guy. obama is the only hope we have for our country. mccain only contradicts himself everytime he opens his crusty old mouth. and stop blaming obama for his reverend's actions. they are 2 seperate people in case you didnt notice. he is the only logical politician i've heard in years. he's not just a good speaker, THE CONTENT OF WHAT HE SAYS IS INTELLIGENT AND THOUGHTFUL. conservatives step aside, the last time you picked a president he brought our economy down to pieces and led us into a pointless war that the majority of the nation regrets entering into.

There is an upside to "Mr Cool" being elected. We don't have to listen to blacks whine all the time. No more affirmative action. They will have reached equality. Another upside we don't have to listen to all the s–t about Bush, it will be the "black guy" in the black crib.

being canadian, everything america does eventually impacts canada and the world. i hope america votes BARACK OBAMA, for the good of your country.

OPEN YOUR EYES.
vote McCain, you're voting in another George Bush. If McCain does become president, you walked into your own death trap.

OBAMA '08

Anyone notice the type of vehicle he is stepping out of???? He has no energy plan, except that oil is bad. He has never taken Econ101, because he strongly believes that if you have more of a product than the demand the price still cannot drop. He has no experience, well a term in the Senate without introducing a bill…. there's experience. Cannot stand and deliver anything without a prepared speech, he cannot back out of debates for long before the true inexperienced Obama appears. I was not a supporter of McCain, but if Obama gets in I will leave the military after over 10 years, because I have no faith or confidence in the man who "could" be my Commander in Chief. And I'm not alone.

Re: Never –
I agree 100% with you.
I dislike Obama because of his inexperience,the way he never owns up to anything, his flip-flopping, the "cult" blind like following of his, it's reminiscent of hitler. who btw promised "change" to the german people too before he got into power and showed his true colors.
dont vote for anyone for the main reason they're black, asian, female, male, whatever. vote for who would best serve this country.

Re: genev – Experience? He has more national experience than Abraham Lincoln ever had before becoming president. Abraham lincoln was ONLY a state senator. Obama has been both a state (the same state) senator and a national senator. Obama has more experience than th greatest president this country has ever had. Abraham lincoln wothout whom there would be no america. Just our north gobbeled up as southern canada and our south as 1/2 jebus land hicks and the other 1/2 conquered by Mexico. In-experienced lincoln who preserved the union. Obama has more experience than lincoln.

Re: Mocha – EXACTLY mocha. Obama is NOt afraid to debate mcshame. mcsame asked for 10 town hall meetings which aren't even real debates while Obama agrees to 5 and 2 actual debates on national security which mcshame has rejected. The mcainobats wouldn't know truth if it hit them on the heads.

Sparkle it up, gurl!! Let us see that seXXy shine!!

Still thrilled from Beyonce's intimate behind-the-scenes video, we're ready to DANCE after watching this Single Ladies performance!!
