Voters, look at content of character

Makes sense to me Jerry Colvin...Hopefully the message will sink in sooner rather than later for if one took Obama's character into the equation he would most definitely not be in the election...Strange this is the first election I have ever seen that has allowed a man with such a shady background to even be considered in the running...Most of the ones who have as many criminal and terroristic radical racist relationships would be on a list of the one's to be watched by the Feds as potential threats to our government...

Excellent points, Mr. Colvin.

Jerry, not likely. If character were to play a part in the election, neither man would get a vote.

Obama's sperm donor father was Muslim. Obama's step-father was Muslim. Obama's mother was a footloose hippy who desereted him. Think about it Christians, and if for a second you do not believe that Obama was not influenced by the Muslim teachings, then please don't vote PERIOD!

Give back to his fellow man? This shady character has abandoned his own family, many of whom live in less than desirable conditions while Barry lives in luxury, deals with and associates with shady characters, misrepresents his true intentions, and blatantly lies about his past and the associates/friends that have shaped who he is today. Who he is and who he has portrayed himself as are two different people. His advisors are already looking to lower expectations of those voters who support him. Lower expectations mean he has made statements that he cannot support, or in plain speak, his mouth has wrote checks that his a%% can't cash. The Lemmings that have followed him to the abyss will be sorely disappointed when the promised change does not happen, his advisors are already seeking ways to "lower expectations of his euphoric supporters".

Don't Blame Me ...I voted for McCain....!!!!!!!!!

justus buy a calendar man. I know no one who has ever owned a slave. You know no one who has ever been one. If slaves are owed reparitions where do we start. All races have been enslaved at one time or another. When we get ours we will just pass it on to you. Don't let the white man hold you back. Write your own check, find your own reward. Be a proud black man. Stop being a sniveling lazy coward looking for a hand out. Stand up, my friend. Get a job. Support yourself. Get off welfare. Stand up, my friend. Learn to wiggle your ears. Stop blaming others for your pitiful lack of manhood. Stand up.

Don't blame me, I didn't vote for GW and won't vote for McSame.

Justus4, your voting for Obama because he's black. You waiting on reparations because you want that check from the government and you think the white man owes you. You walk around mad because you think blacks are discriminated against all the time. You don't care for white people becasue YOU perceive all to be racist. And last but not least, you don't like white law enforcement because of arresting blacks even when (get this) they break the law.

Justus does not want to take responsibility for his own lack of success, but wnats to blame his shortcomings on the white population. There are many successful black businessmen, politicians, religious leaders, teachers, lawyers, doctors, military leaders, etc. who succeeded based on their own initiative and aspiration. They did not hold a grudge against what happened over 140 years ago, a tragedy and black eye (no pun intended) for our country, but certainly took advantage of the opportunities that our great country provides to those who seize the opportunity and prosper based upon their desires. Cast off the chains Justus, as long as you harbor this ill will you will always be a prisoner of your own prejiduces.

Barack Obama's senior advisers have drawn up plans to lower expectations for his presidency if he wins next week's election, amid concerns that many of his euphoric supporters are harboring unrealistic hopes of what he can achieve. The sudden financial crisis and the prospect of a deep and painful recession have increased the urgency inside the Obama team to bring people down to earth, after a campaign in which his soaring rhetoric and promises of "hope" and "change" are now confronted with the reality of a stricken economy. One senior adviser told The Times that the first few weeks of the transition, immediately after the election, were critical, "so there's not a vast mood swing from exhilaration and euphoria to despair." The aide said that Obama himself was the first to realize that expectations risked being inflated.

where is the closeted j. edgar hoover when we need him the most?

LOL factchecker.....now thats what I have been a sayin....folks need to worry about the rioting weeks and months after the election...toot..toot..it's gonna be a hoot !!!!! Don't Blame Me..I voted for McCain !!!!!!!

justsu4, as i've reiterated to willistontown, as inadequate as bush field is, i'm sure i could pull some strings here in atlanta and have you on a oneway flight to berlin, anywhere in africa or any socialist country you desire! if you don't love america, for gods' sake, leave!

Voters look for a candidate with a vision. The choice is clear. OBAMA 08. Check the polls buddy boy.

AHHHHHH! Let me get this straight it is the governments responsibility to make sure my son doesnt get a girl pregnant at 16, hope he doesnt divorce because I didnt enstill family into him and hope his girlfriend who's parents havent taught her how to keep her legs closed is the governments resposibility. Give me a break AMERICA. Bush's last election was all about no gay marriage and that stopped no one from still trying to make unions possible. So no matter what the government supports it is still up to the adult the parent of a child and the person themselves to make this decision. Wow, you guys always need a fall guy dont you.

God Bless America and Mr. President OBAMA. TOOT,TOOT

Personally, I don't care who marries who. Everyone has but one life to life. I don't want that much influence on anyone else. Too busy living my life, just don;t have the time. OBAMA 08. TOOT.TOOT.

pofwe: Such hate. Where do you get it from? I wouldn't let that kind of hate consume me the way it does you.

ANOTHER THING I WANT TO BRING UP! PLEASE PLEASE THINK ABOUT THIS. What if Obama graduated at the bottom of his class and his running mate is a mother of five with a daughter that is a BABY'S MAMA, then would we be even talking about OBAMA as president. Hell no, McCain graduated bottom of his class and his white running mate gets a pass becuase oh its ok for her but hell is OBAMA had a black women with the same credentials we would be all over him. Its funny how its a double standard when its white people but not when its a black person. I CANT WAIT TIL NOV 5...OBAMA

Justus assumes he is white, because the man isn't a blatant racist. How revealing.

jack234, that's not hate. It's BS. Just like your's, justus', and most everybody else's. You take these posts way way too serious. I'm a lover not a hater!! Seperate the real, from the ficticious, and think! Please!

Justus, Yes white men like Abraham Lincoln, Wilberforce, and Gerrit Smith and other Whites who gave instructions to Blacks for their freedom should have just shut up because "their advice has been inaccurate". Is it possible for you to grow up? By the way, check the calendar - it's 2008!

Do y'all really think MLK said "has wrote"?

" .........please don't tell minorities what's important because history teaches us that You Don't Know."
Posted by justus4 on Fri Oct 31, 2008 7:31 AM ..............................................................As long as black folk hold on to grudges from the past they will never be free and will never have much of a future.

What's really revealing is that the letter is it is addressed to black American's as if all black people vote with only regards to race. If he the writer is black I would hope you think more about your race. Not to mention GWB was anti-abortion, anti-gay marriage, and for school vouchers. There has definitely been no real improvements in the black community or for any community really.

What is Obama's vision Jack234? It sounds as if his vision is very murky (250K, 200K, 150K, which is it). Will speak with leaders of other countries unconditionally who hate us and want us to rot in hell. Does not have the backbone to vote for or against a specific bill, but just votes present. Associates with radicals that hate our country, have proved it by their words and actions with no remorse. Lies about his associations, dealings, and friendships. Been to church 500+ times over 20 years but never knew his pastor was anti-American. You call that vision?

Jack234, we could write until we have hand cramps and we'd never sway those with their prejudices and stereotypes to think differently. I think we just have to pray that the next generation doesn't harbor the same prejudices and someday we will all look at our fellow Americans equally. Of course, we all may dislike a person based on how they act, but we must get past the thinking that because a small group may be trash that the entire group is to be condemned. I would be ashamed if one of my children had the attitudes of some of these posters. I raised my children to treat others as they wish to be treated. Apparently some on this site didn't get that lesson from their parents.
