Title: Two possible Obama VP picks coy on their prospects (2 more Bilderberg douche bags)

Wed Jul 16, 5:05 PM ET

WEST LAFAYETTE, Indiana (Reuters) - Two men often mentioned as possible running mates to U.S. presidential candidate Barack Obama joined him on the campaign trail in Indiana on Wednesday, further stoking speculation about the Democrat's closely guarded search for a No. 2.

Former Georgia Sen. Sam Nunn and Indiana Sen. Evan Bayh appeared flattered that their names were being bandied about in the media as vice presidential contenders.

But neither would comment on whether they had been contacted by the Obama campaign about the job.

"It's an honor, but I have no expectations of being offered any office. I am not in any way sitting on the edge of a chair, waiting to go back into government," Nunn told reporters.

"Certainly I would to talk to Sen. Obama if he wanted to talk about it," he added. "But I think the chances of an offer are pretty slim and I would have to do a lot of thinking ... about what was really the best role for me."

Bayh said he was enjoying his current job as a senator and added, "I think any questions about the vice presidential thing are understandable and it's good for my ego but I should probably let Sen. Obama and his campaign address those kinds of questions."

Nunn and Bayh are both respected voices on national security issues. Obama, a 46-year-old first-term Illinois senator, is trying to counter criticism from John McCain, his Republican rival in the November election, that he lacks the foreign policy seasoning to serve as commander-in-chief.

The two Democrats were part of a panel discussion with Obama at Purdue University in West Lafayette, Indiana, on the threats posed by nuclear and biological weapons and potential cyber attacks.

Obama said President George W. Bush's preoccupation with Iraq meant those issues had been neglected for the past eight years.

"It's time to break out of Washington's conventional thinking that has failed to keep pace with unconventional threats," he said.

The Democratic presidential candidate said if elected he would make eliminating nuclear weapons a central part of his security strategy.

"It's time to send a clear message to the world: America seeks a world with no nuclear weapons," he said.

Obama plans visits soon to Iraq and Afghanistan as well as Jordan, Israel, Britain, Germany and France. Dates for the trips have not been disclosed for security reasons.

Many analysts say it would make sense for Obama to pick a running mate steeped in national security experience to add heft to his ticket.

Nunn, 69, former chairman of the Senate Armed Services Committee, and Bayh, 52, and a member of the Senate Armed Services and Intelligence committees, both vouched for Obama's national security credentials.

"He has a history of thinking beyond the horizon, anticipating the kind of challenges we face," said Bayh, who campaigned for Obama's former rival, Democratic Sen. Hillary Clinton, during their race for the party's nomination but has since thrown his support to Obama.

Obama sounds like any run of the mill unilateral disarmament nut, the kind of guy who would melt his pistols and rifles and take a knife to a gun fight. The world is full of idiots and the D's and R's think that it is good policy to run them for president I reckon.

Bayh, 52, would be 60 at the end of an 8 year Obama presidency and primed for a run. Nunn, 69, would be 77 and too old or already dead. Bayh is the guy!

PLUS:

Evan Bayh statement on Israel (http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=364x1731610)

The following news release was issued by the office of Indiana Senator Evan Bayh:

"I stand strongly with the people of Israel in their efforts to eliminate the threats to them from Hezbollah, Hamas and their sponsors in Syria and Iran. No nation can be asked to turn the other cheek day after day, when its people are subject to daily missile strikes against civilian targets and cross-border raids that kill and capture its citizens.

"A cease-fire is not enough. Hezbollah operates a mini-state and military in southern Lebanon. It has an arsenal of thousands of missiles and operates outside the control of the Lebanese government, despite United Nations Security Council Resolution 1559 that calls for disarming Hezbollah, removing all foreign forces from Lebanon - including those from Iran - and deploying the Lebanese army to secure the border with Israel. It is the failure of any of the parties mentioned to comply with this resolution that has broken the peace in southern Lebanon and left Israel with no choice but to protect the innocent. Such willful intransigence and continuous wanton efforts undermine efforts of leaders in Israel and Palestine to achieve a lasting peace is unacceptable, as is Iranian and Syrian adventurism intended to foment violence and unrest. For these reasons, the American people and I resolutely support Israel in this fight."


Note: His statement continues for two more paragraphs at the followling link.

Right. When they tell us that they only offer us "the best of the best" what they actually mean is the two biggest nuts they could find that would go along with their plans. Obama and McCain, Tweedledumb and Tweedledumber. If it weren't for the difference in the shade of their skin they would be hard to tell apart.

Evan Bayh From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

He was selected by Bill Clinton to give the keynote address at the 1996 Democratic National Convention to reinforce his efforts to cast himself and the Democratic Party with a new moderate image. He notably attended the Bilderberg Group conference in Portugal in 1999, and in May 2000, President Bill Clinton stated, "I hope and expect some day I'll be voting for Evan Bayh for President of the United States." [5] He was indeed considered for national office as a possible running mate for Al Gore in the 2000 presidential election and in 2004, when some experts and pundits initially predicted Bayh to be a possible running mate for Democratic nominee John Kerry. His native Indiana was a key state in the important Midwest since Indiana was a Republican stronghold in presidential races, and it would almost certainly not be a swing state unless Bayh were nominated. Kerry instead selected Senator John Edwards of North Carolina.

Too many people stare reality in the eyes and deny it exists.

Which is why the mess coming will be of several magnitudes worse than anything America has ever seen before.

I've seen very prominent posters in Freedom4um, that I greatly respect, call the global elite world governance scheme 'tall grass conspiracy' or something to similar effect. The reality is that the CFR and that ilk are tying up the loose ends from a plan hatched a long time ago. These wars have all been about sovereignty and super states. Serbia was. Sure, there's drug trafficking, people trafficking, oil pipelines and other forms of 'far from Free Trade' (because ultimately, none of it is fair trade - it's the globalist-capitalist-communist trojan horse) run by the globalists that are involved. There are wars coming and they will be about the same things. It's all orchestrated while people down here at ground zero argue about "Oil, Israel, Environment, obama, mcCain, yada, yada, yada" and become no longer Americans but North Americans and then One Worlders. African union, European union, South American union, North American union, Asian-Australian Pacific union, Middle East-Persian Gulf union. Right here right now. World Police State Matrix. No where to run, no where to hide. We have to stand up, point it out and do what we must to at least stall the bastards. ;-)

I'm sure you've read the story about the Rockefellers' plan to depopulate the earth by 90%, and that the Asian criminal syndicates have promised to kill the top 200 of the Rockefellers if any attempt to put the plan in motion is made.

I'm inclined to believe this story.

But, look at the bright side.

Suppose 90% of the worthless eaters and 200 of the Rockefellers and their cronies/henchmen are killed.

Where's the down side?

Maybe then I could get me an island and a boatload of bare breasted natives, and become a despot!

And, the real obsequious ones would know just what to say to me;

"Oh, Master, King Of Rock & Roll, Lord Of The World, could you please play Johnny B. Goode again? Your guitar licks are just so smokin' hawt and my teenage daughters just can't get enough of it!" Photobucket
