Both are polarizing factors to divert Americans' attention away from the fact that the economy is in the toilet

Increasing scarcity increases the importance of kinship.

Red states? Blue states? It's an Obama nation!

Did you read the speech?

no, I haven't.

I'm certain that it's a very good speech, though.

I am commenting only on racial divisiveness being used as a diversion.

Although BHO is far from my first choice for the presidency, to my knowledge, he doesn't have a 'body-count' website devoted to him.

You gotta read the context.

The first association I made with "Ashley" was "Montagu".

Boy did I laugh.

This is a very good speech.

Indeed. What Obama did is to call on the people to responsibility. From this speech 'we the people' will not be able to vote for chimperor (twice) and not be considered responsible for the consequences of their act.

I agree. I'm waiting to see Fox News (who were laughing about him before the speech started) to begin extracting statements from this morning's speech out of context so they can start more controversy.

The Stalinist lesbian witch was selected a long time ago.

There's no Black Panther Marxist named Hussein with permission to actually change that, no matter how good the game looks.

It is funny though, that people actually pay attention to the 3 remaining pre-selected turds...

I agree. Unfortunately, as we can see here, it won't sway those who have already made up their minds about race and politics.

Both are cultural issues and will never be changed by any government.

It's not easy to change culture through law. But a president can influence it by using his bully pulpit.

To reason, indeed, he was not in the habit of attending. His mode of arguing, if it is to be so called, was one not uncommon among dull and stubborn persons, who are accustomed to be surrounded by their inferiors. He asserted a proposition; and, as often as wiser people ventured respectfully to show that it was erroneous, he asserted it again, in exactly the same words, and conceived that, by doing so, he at once disposed of all objections. - Macaulay, "History of England," Vol. 1, Chapter 6, on James II.

In 2000, I considered Gore another Clinton. But in '04 I voted Constitution Party. I might have voted for Kerry, but CA was clearly going his way.

Bush/Cheney have been the most evil monsters in our nation's history.

A McCain presidency will be another Cheney presidency.

If I hadn't watched all of this unfold with my own eyes (transformation from Ron Paul supporters into Black Panther Marxist CFR supporters) I would have difficulty believing it.

Both are grassroots campaigns, with a lot of support from young people. IMO, Obama is more out of the establishment (I know about CFR), than the other two possibilities.

So who will you be voting for? One of the candidates who has no chance of winning?

I'm a realist, and I see no value in allowing others to elect Hillary or McCain.

They are far worse than Obama, IMO.

It was, and hopefully it will help him win the nomination over Hillary. He will have a tough fight with the corrupt warmonger, McCain.
