Why you should vote Obama

Sorry Zippo, you obviously didn't get the memo from Al Quaeda's CEO! Here's the gist of it: Our purpose being to destabilize the U.S. electoral process, this year, like every year, we're supporting Ralph Nader.

Who's Ralph Nader

You're waaaay behind the curve, good buddy - I'll see if I can get you a copy of the full memo.

Victory! You owe me big time, Zippo

Victory to High Seas!

That was hilarious !!

Bismi-Allahi al-Rahmani, al-Raheem
(in the Name of God, the Compassionate, the Merciful)

My people and I thank you
For your wish of victory on the high seas.
May it be as you say, now and forever.
To you and yours we wish no harm,
we only want Ghawar and Ras Tanura.


P.S. if that was poetry, count me as a Japanese haiku expert - but I think the number of syllables was all wrong, and so was the spirit.

Maybe - very optimistically - this could make it as iambic pentameter? It has five lines, and pretty much encapsulates the Spirit of the West.

I tend to avoid politics these days, but I've listened to Obama speak and I like what the man has to say.

Although, saying and doing are two different things and I've lost a lot of trust in all political leaders, for various reasons over the past years, so on that note, he seems like one of the lesser of the evils I see out there.

Go Obama :-D

Hi Montana! No offense, but would you like some of these T-shirts? Friends of mine in Boston have crates full of them since the 2004 election:

No offense taken.

Obama would make a decent President, I believe; however, John McCain in these times would make a better President. Having been watching the PBS 10 hour documentary, Carrier, I want our Navy to be comfortable and motivated by their Commander In Chief (McCain was a Navy pilot; his parents were in the Navy).

Personally, similar to the need for a President to be born in the U.S.A., I would like another prerequisite that a President should have served in some branch of the U.S. military. Only makes sense, I think; what business/organization hires someone with no experience for the top position?

Mc Cain it too old. If elected, he'd end up serving as the first ever U.S president in a wheelchair with half a dead brain.

"If McCain, 70, runs and wins, he would be the oldest person ever inaugurated as president. As is evident from the scar on the left side of his face, he has had malignant melanoma, the most invasive and dangerous form of skin cancer. (One in every 60 Americans is at risk for developing invasive melanoma in their lifetimes."

Why should we vote for Obama?

The only reason:

He's not McCain.

We already have half that scenario covered.

The argument of age is specious. So, everyone will vote for who they choose. Obama won't win, if he is in the general election against McCain. Why? Because a majority of this country doesn't identify with the people that will vote for Obama. It's really that simple.
