I am proud to support the best man with the right stuff to rise to the occasion of fixing what the Bush Administration has broken.
He will also be the notice served by the American people that the cancerous evil of racism in the United States has reached the tipping point toward extinction.
November forth McCain's campaign nave will encounter an Obama tsunami as Americans stand up to say enough is enough, and elect a man who will be instrimental in keeping the American Republic alive for a long time to come.

I'm just wondering how you rationalize the betrayal by the majority of the Democratic controlled Congress in relation to funding more war, not bringing the troops home. Also what about Pelosi and "no impeachment". Those two issues alone are enough to show everyone they're compromised, as is Obama, I strongly suspect.
We shall see what a larger margin of Democrats in the House and Senate means with an excellent man with high motivation to succeed, energy and talent in the White House.
I expect that this change to be a big part in an end to this expensive endless war and this economic nightmare this 22 percent approval rating president has brought us these past eight years.
I asked "how you rationalize the betrayal by the majority of the Democratic controlled Congress in relation to funding more war, not bringing the troops home. Also what about Pelosi and "no impeachment". "
