Obama Rebuts Clinton’s Argument by Using Historical Speeches

Hillary will make a great Sec of State. She doesnt need all these negative ad and politics of personal destruction that will only make her negatives go higher. Let her settle down and think of what next after the primary. TX that has been named firewall seems to be fireless anyway.ARG polls show Obama leading! The polls maybe be wrong but its an indication Hillary will not have a crushing victory in TX or Ohio they way Obama beat her in potomac primaries.

Barack’s comments were right on re: Martin Luther King, Jr.! Looks like Hillary’s so called “solutions” tactic has failed again! We need to stop the negative crap! This is exactly what the republicans like to see so they can use it against us. We don’t need another four years of hell! I hope Obama stays to this message and not get in the personal attacks, because it’s just tacky!

Hillary found her voice in New Hampshire. The voice was different but she still carries the same message. Show us Hillary that voice you found.

He is using his race,color, his poor departed mother, poor people, minorities,and pumping up voters with false hopes and dreams, to win the sympathy of people to attain votes. With His words.
His words lack the knowledge, the experience, a defined plan on how he will attain these trumped up promises and false hopes. There has been nothing new, unique from him on this.
We need a president who can do more than recite pretty speeches. We need one who can Do the job of commander and chief. Head of a nation, That knows what they are doing.
I fear the UK tabloids might repeat the words they used after bush was re-elected, if Obama gets elected: “How can 59,054,087 people be so DUMB?”

I was a Hillary backer. This negative campaigning and now her campaign says people that voted for Obama are insignifcant? How arrogant!! Its the people she serves. To blow off people that voted democrat, even the independence and crossover republicans, is wrong. We are voting to put this type of person in office??
Now her true colors are coming out. She’s for herself, not for the American people. What an ugly person

Well, I guess this means the Clinton attack machine will have to go after FDR now and try to destroy his reputation.

My friends,
Barrack Obama was not beaten,he didn’t march for civil rights has not championed civil rights for 20 years. Dr king had achievement behind his speeches. FDR, was a well accomplished Governor of New York for eight years despite suffering from polio, as far as I know Obama does not suffer from polio. Mr Obama, what Declaration of independence have YOU written? You are no founding father or no Thomas Jefferson. Yes, those speeches had meaning but so did the PEOPLE Giving them. – Not You!

Here’s the difference. Obama keeps thinking he’s MLK. MLK was an activist who fought in the trenches for civil rights for YEARS. Obama was in Hawaii being educated at private schools. He is such a wanna be. First he wants to be MLK, then he compares himself to God. What’s next?

Words do matter. In El Paso Hillary talked down to the ground. More along the lines of stupid Texas, I’ll promise you a minimum wage of $9.50. She didn’t make that promise in Wisconsin.
Words matter. Walking along MLK and Latinos there was a voice singing out to change things. That voice was Joan Baez.
For the first time she has endorsed a political canidate: OBAMA!

JB,
2 Months ago, Hillary Clinton introduced legislation in the Senate to raise the minimum wage to $9.50. Learn the facts please, before you vote or condemn others, And Joan Biaz never became President, nor should Obama until he accomplishes something on the National stage.

Joe: Introducing legislation means nothing – it needs to get passed. Hillary has accomplished almost NOTHING on a national stage. Oh, yeah, there was that health care thing back in the ’90s, that was a big success. Frankly, she is a failure as a leader.
What’s more, when has she “faced down the Republican Attack machine” in an election? Never. She’s never faced a real opponent, until now. And what do you know, the wheels are coming off.

Wait a minute. Each of those cited by Obama “walked the walk” and had the right and background to “talk the talk”. OBama does not. He can only talk it. He has shown in the past only that he can not cross the aisle and unite as the majority of his programs only pass committee or one side and he can’t bring the other side over to his program.

Hillary Clinton would make a terrible Secretary of State. It was she and Madame Albright who pushed the whipped spouse into a mass bombing of Serbia. This action was another meddling and naive intrusion into a centuries old regional situation having no bearing on US security or interests. We will see in years to come the bad effects of this bold, arrogant and illegal action.

In keeping with this argument, that means the Soviet Union collapsed because a dottering old man, guilty of selling weapons to our enemies who later used them on us, and giving cash to people named Bin Laden, asked them to ‘tear down this wall’ and POOF they just did so, in fright of grandpa.
Clinton may be a phony, but this Obama rubbish just has no end. There is always an answer when he is accused. There is always a twist when he is caught (I pushed the wrong button, I guess the article wasn’t in Life, maybe Ebony. No? Oh, well I don’t remember . . .). He attacks on things his own family has done. He talks about votes and then hides from making them. He takes credit for speeches he doesn’t write, and now we are to believe that without action, words are enough. Yes, the inspire, but just as in the French Revolution, it took action, or the lack of, to create or defeat a movement.
There is a story about this in the famous book by Thomas Carllyle – The French Revolution. There are all these glowing recitations about the poor and about the maltreated, but as yet, few marched. There were tirades against the King, and some marched. And yet, once the movement was strong, because power is in numbers, one young man, not yet in the higher ranks of military wrote a small comment in his diary, right after the Bastille.
“It would have taken but a whiff of grape shot – and the crowd would have been silenced for good.”
Napolean Bonaparte 1793
Now, just one small shot from a cannon, to show there was FIGHT behind the government, and it would have sent the signal. But it is the fight that does the deed. The words might whip you up, but look at Cuba? The little bit they do, they march barely, but all the words of Radio Marti for 45 years, they still have yet to DO SOMETHING.
The Berlin Wall no more fell because Ronald Regan told it to, then getting to the moon was because of JFK’s speech. It was a good start. But without past results, all the good intentions and speeches on earth don’t amount to a hill of beans.
Ever worked for a retail store, and at the end of the night the manager gives the team the rundown on just how much the store made that day? I have. Oooo, it’s just electrifying, hearing all about how the store made hundreds of thousands that day, while we killed ourselves for peanuts. And all that passion that we heard. Wow. But it didn’t effect us in the right way. Passion without purpose is meaningless. But Passion without past results is even worse – it is a vaccum, a void. And the universe depises nothing more than a vaccum

Obama is not Dr. King. King was not running for office on empty promises. He had a dream AND a plan. But his response is brilliant.

JOE–Dr. King gave speeches to inspire people to reach for accomplishment rather to accept things as they are. If you know anything at all about the American Civil Rights Movement, then you should know that it started off very, very small, in disjointed groups. There were few leaders and many people looking, hoping for change. Dr. King was one of those leaders. I don’t know that much bout FDR, but I don’t think that having polio is what made him a great leader. However I do know a little about American history and I do remember the Declaration of Independence was a social turning point in the American Revolutionary War. Up until that point, the American people had accomplished very little overall. The Boston Tea Party, the Boston Massacre, the invasion, and subsequent small battles–mostly losses overall did not inspire the whole of America to revolt. It wasn’t until Thomas Paine’s “Common Sense” was circulated and the Declaration of Independence was signed that the American people began to get behind the war. Words may have been the most powerful weapon of the war. You can’t compare history to the present day like it happened in the past. You have to take history in the context of its time. Today is our time and Obama’s words are only popular because the echo the hearts of the majority of Americans everywhere. Today is our time and change begins with demanding change.

One year in the Senate! Obama is like the slick preacher. Always says the right things to get you fired up believing in change and then later you find out it was all hot air. The real person shows up. Seen to many of those here in the South to fall for it again.

People yammering about Obama’s lack of accomplishment are full of it. His legislative track record is longer than Hillary’s, and he’s been more active in getting significant legislation passed in the Senate. And what experience or accomplishment can Hillary claim, other than pointing, clapping, and destroying any chance at health care reform back in the ’90?
Anyone calling for MI and FL to count are probably on the Clinton payroll. MI in particular, where Hillary was the only one on the ballot? What is this, the Soviet Union?

A STATE senator. Who actually knows the names of their STATE senators? Goodness grief. Call it what it is. The minor leagues- if that. If you want to base your vote on a minor league candidate and what he did in the state senate be my guest. The Presidency is to important. Hence, why he has a minimal voting record to DEFEND.

And regarding Clinton’s claim to be in the “solutions business” – how EXACTLY is she planning to enforce the mandates in her health care plan? She won’t say, although she’s let it slip a few times that she would “go after their wages”. Reeeaally? How, exactly, is this going to work? Do tell, Hillary.
People, this is the plan? She expects everyone to line up for a policy that forces people to pay and garnishes their wages (or what, throws them in jail?). The republicans are already getting set to fillet her with this.

Misleading information on the healthcare issue has gotten Eric confused. See what these misleading ads are doing? Auto Insurance is manditory. Health insurance will be fine, just go get the details instead of following misleading ads.

He did in jest say that Samuel L Jackson played “God” before he (Obama)was “God.” Truth often reveals itself in humor.

Ryaple: I am sure that people in those countries know a lot about American politics — particularly when it is filtered through a media that is blatantly hostile to Clinton. Those polls mean nothing at all. And the UK — the land of Thatcher, Blair and roayalty worship? Yeah — that’s my source for political insight. LOL….

Sure, Obama is just some idealistic, delusional newcomer, who through an illegal-substance-inspired stupor, is spouting a bunch of meaningless stuff about hope.
And this guy is beating the Clinton machine.
Huh. Logic tells me either that characterization of him isn’t right, or there wasn’t really much to the Clintons.

I have spoked to many people outside the US and they LOVE the HILLARY. The UK LOVES HER. I know because they can’t understand why anyone would make her President and “get on with it”.
I get emails all the time. This media love affair has traveled far, but there are some that are still awake and they will surface to show what is real.
Hillary Clinton for President.

Hope: your argument comparing Clinton’s health care mandates and car insurance are COMPLETELY spurious. I have a choice whether or not to drive, which requires a license, and whether or not to own a car, which requires car insurance. Plus, I have my choice of private car insurance – it’s not some government plan shoved down my throat.
Your claim that I’ve made up my mind by virtue of advertising is false and completely insulting. But, that’s Clinton’s way, I guess. My point here is mainly that for someone in the “solutions business”, she hasn’t offered a solution! She just ducks the question. Please, someone, tell me her plan for enforcing these mandates!
And while you’re at it, please tell me exactly when it was that Clinton faced a real republican opponent in an election. And no, Lazio doesn’t count.

Obama is trying to invoke Martin Luther King whenever he can. The problem is, he is hiding behind the words, because he really has very little record which would indicate he is the man to lead us out of the darkness we are in. When people ask his Obamanites what exactly has he accomplished…. they stutter. The reason they stutter is that he really has done nothing distinguishable so far. I am not about to put my vote behind a wing and a prayer. I also find it rather arrogant to put himself in the same category as FDR and Martin Luther King. A little presumptuous, considering so few accomplishements and experience. Pleae people, get your heads out of the clouds and come back to earth. Hillary is the only one with the experience and the abilities to lead. Hillary 08!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Mannewell — please spare me your unlicensed practice of law. The Bush v Gore case was an equal protection case, which focused on how the recounts were being conducted with different methodologies depending upon the county. The court found this impermissible. The Democrats’ political rhetoric surrounding the case, however, focused on the importance of having all votes count. This is the same rhetoric that the Obama camp is contradicting now — for political expediency. They are instead focusing on “rules.” Sounds like Katherine Harris’ callous statement that the votes had to be certified by the statutory date, despite the need for the recounts, because THOSE ARE THE RULES.
Is it so difficult to recognize Obama for the politician he is? I actually think he’s a brilliant politician. He is able to win an election simply by saying he will change Washington and the country. Every election has an anti-establishment candidate. Obama has managed to turn an old message into one that sounds new. I guess if most of your supporters just reached the age of majority, this is not really that hard to do.
Returning to Florida – if Obama were trailing nationally but had won Florida, all of you pious Obamites would be screaming and clawing about “counting the black voters” in Florida. Because I support civil rights and voting rights ALL THE TIME – I sincerely hope the Dems do something to make these votes count. I am consistent on these issues. Apparently, many Dems will pick and choose when to embrace “the people” depending upon how it helps their candidate.
Finally — Obama has come out against the Super Delegates exercising independent choice, regardless of how close the election ends up. But the Super Delegate structure is a part of THE RULES to. So why abandon it just for King Obama? Another thing: although he speaks out against the format, he has given about $1 million to Super Delegates to “buy” their votes. What a hypocrite. Hypocrisy is so ungodly; it is more of the same, and it does not inspire hope.

True Tony. Obama is no Lincoln. Lincoln only would agree to three debates.

Oops. Was just told I’m a dumb… in my own house, by someone who actually knew there were seven debates in 1858.

Also just saw interesting Rasmussen numbers in Pennsylvania head-to-head polls. Obama beats McCain by 10, while McCain beats Clinton by 2.

Tony, sorry, but I have to laugh at that one.
First, if anyone compared Obama to Lincoln, it was just someone here among us internet knuckleheads.
Second, how contrived can we get. Lincoln equals Bush, therefore if Obama equals Lincoln, Obama must equal Bush?
That one falls apart in some many places, beginning with how Abe is now rolling in his grave at his comparison to Dubya.

Have you noticed just how arrogant a lot of the Obamanites are?? I thought you guys were all about kambaya and love and reaching across party lines, etc. It seems to me, that when the going gets tough, the Obamanites get just as nasty as anyone else. You are no different or special than anyone else. To the person above, referring to Obamanites as real voters, honestly, get real. I am a out there in America, just trying to pay my bills, and make a buck. I read the papers,and I listen to the news, and I have based my decision on who I believe will be the stronger candidate, and who will bring real change. Hillary Clinton has been a great Senator for the State of New York, not to mention all her other experience. Just what exactly has Obama done so far in his senatorial career? Check his record, and not the one on his web site-which is totally misleading. Look things up on your own. Then you will see that Hillary is the best choice. But then again, that is probably to time consuming, it’s much easier to listen to his rah rah speeches.

MLK, FDR, Washington/Jefferson’s words inspired people because people knew the words were spoken after years of personal experience/sacrifice for causes they believed in.
If MLK were just a 2 year senator and spoke those exact words NOBODY would care two hoots for those words. That’s how everybody should treat OBAMA’s speechwriter written words.

Michele – I have no doubt that Clinton is up now in Pennsylvania. Obama has time to close that gap, as he has elsewhere, but Pennsylvania is Clinton’s state (commonwealth) to lose.
The head to head polls by Rasmussen are general election match-ups. They don’t just look at likely primary voters, but at likely general election voters.
The difference is that the head to head match-ups include independents. Clearly Pennsylvania independents favor Obama right now, if Rasmussen polled them accurately.
Let’s not forget who decides general elections.

jimmy byte – see… everyone loves Obama, lol.

Any smart pollster will tell you that pre-election polling of November results today mean nothing except as a discussion of which candidate is popular at the moment. Case in point: after each convention, the nominated candidate gets a huge bounce that dwindles. Please stop attmpting to insult our intelligence with polling about what could happen in November. That’s preposterous.

Pat – it must have been a good letter, because Obama got that endorsement.

Michele – are you arguing that Clinton has more support among independents than Obama? That seems like a stretch, based on polls as well as primary and caucus results.
McCain has strength with independents. We all know that. In fact, he’s the GOP’s best candidate, though the GOP seems reluctant to acknowledge that.
The electability argument for Obama comes down to basically this – the Democrats better nominate someone who can compete with McCain among independents.
I can certainly respect the conversations you’ve had with people, but all of the macro indicators we’ve got point to that candidate being Obama.

Hillary will win the nomination, if by some chance there is some slight and Obama gets it, then McCain will be President. Oh well, I’m not worried because it will be Hillary.

Republicans will vote for Obama, I’m the only dem in a group of friends who all voted for Bush in 2004 and gave me crap the whole time. They can’t wait to vote for Obama in the general, so don’t tell me Republicans won’t vote for Obama, they can’t wait to vote for him. And that is exactly why Hillary supports just don’t get it. It’s time to cut out that crap about Republicans are all evil and they always stick together. We never gave them a good reason to come over and talking like that is exactly why. And why Obama will win in the general election.

Well said MICHELE. The people who have done all the comparing have been us. TONY– I’m sorry, you must indeed be a lawyer. I was so bored I stopped reading your post halfway through. I still think you have a shot a political office since you’ve chosen to omit how much money Senator Clinton has given to Super delegates. I’ll be honest though, it’s really stupid when people bring that up, obviously trying to place ugly spin on it. There is nothing wrong with supporting candidates with money who you believe in. Both Senators Clinton and Obama have done this. I have supported Senator Obama with as much money as I can afford and I’ve never given money to anything in my life. Super-delegates are not back-alley men and women who possess votes. They are mayors, congressmen of state and county, and of other positions where races must won or lost. But it’s always Clinton supporter’s bringing up one-sided half-truths. This is why people don’t trust Clinton. This is why when Obama says maintain the rules, he will stick by that, regardless of the political climate. Senator Clinton would only stick by what she said if it benefited her and if their positions were switched right now she would instead be saying what Obama is saying and Obama would still be saying the same thing–the rules are the rules. I see what type of politician Obama is–someone who will stand by their word no matter the political climate and expedience and that is why I will vote for him every time. TONY–I give you due credit for your knowledge of DNC rules and history–excluding the “I knew Abraham Lincoln” remark, but from all of that I can finally see your glasses are too colored by what has been to see what can be. You are the past, the status-quo, you are happy with government today and believe that this is the way it is, the way it should be. I DO NOT.

Who is the best leader? Whose campaign has the funds necessary to campaign this primary season? One candidate accepted lobbyist money and still had to loan her campaign 5 million; one candidate accepted no lobbyist money, instead he inspired Americans to contribute in small amounts record numbers. So while one candidate went broke–one candidate set a budget and has lived within that budget.
Who is the best leader? One candidate has refrained from negative ads to try to lift our miserable politics into something we can stomach–One candidate has not.
The difference in these two candidates leadership styles are obvious to anyone with eyes to see. Who has the best executed campaign plan, the best executed campaign financing, and takes the high ground in advertising, has not had campaign people bailing out? Watching this primary season is a lesson in real leadership. Obama is walking the talk!

Aaron — what state are you from? I am curious about your Dem-voting Republican friends….and whether they will even matter.

Obama has put out misleading ads.
Hillary Clinton Supports don’t waver over, because Obama is just not a smart choice. There is just way to much over the top and not a reasonable choice for President of the UNITED STATES.
I feel a little sad for some of the solid people who want him. I just hope you know, you are complete, you do have souls, and you do have what it takes to make it. It is about you, you are already great people. We just need someone in the White House to get to work.

TONY–I’m not sure what country you’ve been watching primaries in, but in the Democratic Presidential primary of the U.S., there have been record turnouts in nearly every race, with the majority of those voting for Obama. He outnumbers her in the popular vote by over 50,000 people. Those are real democratic people who demand a voice whether they be a part of the base or not. Based on election wins in Maine, Washington State, VA, and IOWA, to say that ONLY black people will support Obama displays not racism, just clear and blind ignorance which is a close cousin of racism. Glad to see that unparalled logic back in action again!

MARTIN LUTHER KING RESPECTED LIFE, ESPECIALLY THE UNBORN, HE, IN ALL REALITY WAS A REPUBLICAN.
HE WAS A MAN OF GOD! HAD GOOD CHRISTIAN VALUES..IF MLK WAS ALIVE TODAY, HE WOULD BE ENDORSING ALAN KEYES.
TO SEE THE UN-CHRISTIAN MORALS THAT BARACK OBAMA ENDORSES IS NOT A BLACK CANDIDATE THAT MLK WOULD BE BEHIND.
OBAMA NEEDS TO CHANGE HIS STANCE ON ABORTION, GAY MARRIAGE, SEX EDUCATION TO KINDEGARTEN UP TO 5TH GRADE(WHICH IN REALITY IS PRONOGRAPHY); HIS COMMITTMENT TO ALLOW THE KILLING OF LATE-TERM ABORTED BABIES THAT ARE BORN ALIVE TO DIE IN HOSPITAL UTILITY ROOMS, AND HIS TAKING VERSES OUT OF THE BIBLE AND SAYING THEY DON’T BELONG THERE; ESPECIALLY THE VERSES IN ROMANS THAT SAYS MARRIAGE OF THE SAME SEX IS AN ABOMNINATION.
OBAMA IS NOT THE NEW MESSIAH, AND HE IS NOT “JESUS” COME BACK.
HOW CAN WE (I’M ADDRESSING TRUE CHRISTIANS HERE ONLY) VOTE FOR SOMEONE WHOM EVEN MLK WOULDN’T VOTE FOR; NOR WOULD JESUS.
I HAVE RESEARCHED AND RESEARCHED ALL DIFFERENT CHRISTIAN DENOMINATIONS, AND IF YOU ARE GOING TO VOTE ACCORDING TO YOUR MORAL STANDINGS AS A TRUE CHILD OF GOD, OUR ONLY CHOICE UNFORTUNATELY IS MCCAIN.
TOO BAD ALAN KEYES IS NOT STILL IN THE EBULICAN RACE. HE WAS THE REPUBLICAN BARACK OBAMA; ONLY HE TRULY WAS A GOOD MAN AND A GOOD CHRISTIAN.

Just media hype that Republicans will vote for Obama and not McCain. This another trick of the Obama camp to make you believe so, because then you’ll throw your vote that way.
In case all of you Obama supporters may not know, the Repulican voters are mainly christians of all denominations that believe in pro-life.
These christians which number about 3/4 of the American vote will vote with their conscience and that is pro-life.
Only candidate…..McCain.

Jan: Just what did the Clinton’s do to black people? I’m confused!

SAINT OBAMA WANTS TO CHANGE THE RULE OF THE SUPERDELEGATES, YET HE WANTS TO KEEP THE FLORIDA AND MICHIGAN DELEGATES AWAY FROM, THE HILLARY CAMP.
OBAMA…YOU CAN’T HAVE IT BOTH WAYS.
AND YOU COMPLAIN ABOUT IT WOULDN’T BE FAIR IF MOST OF THE SUPERDELEGATES GO TO OBAMA AT THE END IF IT COMES TO A CONCENTION;;;;THEN WHY ARE YOU AT THIS TIME BUYING OFF YOUR SUPERDELEGATES.
SO FAR YOU HAVE DISHED OUT 658,000.00 IN CONTRIBUTIONS MADE TO YOUR CAMPAIGN BY SMALL DONATIONS FROM LOW OR MIDDLE CLASS PEOPLE TO YOUR CAMPAIGN FUND…YET YOUR PAYING OFF SUPERDELEGATES TO ENDORSE YOU. NOW I CALL THAT DIRTY POLITICS, MR. OBAMA.

algabon said:2009 Where are you: How can you hate anyone this much? And why? Because he had the audacity to challenge your high and mighty Hillary on the way to what you expected would be a coronation. Please for the sake of all that is good and of good report, don’t do anything crazy. I know what this much hatred can do to people
TAKE A XANAX, DUDE.

It takes a Clinton to clean after a Bush. And the cleaning game continues. They will never finish cleaning their scandals – Clinton more so. But a new broom sweeps clean! Clinton is not that new broom. Obama is, stupid!
Why are the Clintons so desperate to go back into the White House? May be to mop up the Monica mess? Keep your peace!
Latinos, watch out. It is your turn this time. Just as they did with blacks, the Clintons will use you now for their selfish political interest and play the same race card against you when it suits them. Perhaps, when it is Chelsea’s turn to clean after another Bush?
Secretive Clinton, release your tax records for the American people you obligate to coronate you.

Pete: Short-sighted! Jan is not black! You mean either a Clinton or a Bush is qualified to be president? Or Messiah for all of us? Wake up, Pete! Use your head for once.

It’s sad that Hillary has to turn to more and more negative attacks.

Ugh to all of it.!

And here’s where I don’t follow: “their race-baiting became proven beyond all reasonable doubts.” Where was this discussed? If memory serves me correctly, the Obama camp sent out talking points to highlight comments made by the Clinton’s that could be perceived as racist. This was confirmed in the debate. If you actually listened to the context of both statements made by the Clinton’s they were severely mischaracterized. But that might be to much homework for you to engage in so continue to spew what you consider beyond a reasonable doubt. Good grief. Peace Out!

I am a touch bemused by people who seem to think it is possible to lead without communicating well. Maybe its a result of having had such a bad commnunicator as President for 8 years, but the reality is any political leader who is effective has to be able to communicate.
I wonder what the Hillary Clinton of 1992 would think of the arguments the Hillary of 2008 is making? Because they are the same sorts of arguments people made against her husband then.

Hillary has no message and no inspiration. She puts everyone to sleep with her laundry list. Who wants that crap? Even if she has 1000 great policies, it will be a paper tiger since she has no ability to get anything done. She is the most inefficient woman, running on her husband’s name. American men and women detest this particular woman.

All “men” are created equal. Exactly. Woman are the inferior lot. Some “men” are created more than equal. Turns out the “black” man cannot be criticized or even tested. Turns out the “woman” can be demonized and dehumanized by your own followers to the point where those words mean nothing and so very few of your own followers failed to stand up for anything. Words are only meaningful if the people, your own people, believe them. They do not as shown by their own words written here!

I’m an Obama supporter. My reasons for this are well established int the public eye, but more over, Obama strikes a chord with me.
We’ve been so consumed with fighting over the scraps from Washington D.C.’s table that we have forgot our given right to something better.
If we can stand as a country 230 million strong there is no obbstacle we can’t overcome. Words matter. Words are crucial. Words define us as a people. OBAMA ’08!

Barack Obama is quickly becomming my greatest hero.
As a young American, I’m literally brought to tears right now. Please, please, God sent Obama to us to lead us out of this dark patch in our history. We cannot let it slip away!
Obama ’08!

What a laugh! Hey the links are there buddy. Research it yourself and get back to me. It took me 3 minutes to add up the votes. Maybe CNN has thrown away factual report and fallen in love with Obama, you cry? Maybe you just don’t what to learn anything more than you already think you know? In any case, the case is clear. Look it up and get back to me kid.

Man, this is frustrating. Obama rebuts something Clinton said, but we don’t know what Obama said or what Clinton said. Just the rhetoric.
So what are the arguments? Why doesn’t ABC talk about anything but the horse race? I’m being kept in the dark.

Oh, I also forgot: he criticizes the SuperDelegate structure but pays them a million dollars for votes. What a hypocrite.

Hey Joe,
Mr. Obama didn’t have a slave mistress that he slept with either. Open your eyes and maybe you will see his ability to unite a nation that is in real dispair seeking a REAL presidential leader. Mrs. Clinton has a real ability to divide, which is not what this country needs right now. As far as “What has/is he going to do for African-Americans”, A president, he is charged with the duty to do for all, not just specific group. Speaking as an African-American, what did Bill Clinton do for African-Americans that everyone else did benefit from?

You to can be president, all you need to do is memorize some famous quotes from the past and deliver them in an eloquent manner, of course you will need alot of money to go along with it and yes I do expect this post to be deleted, goes along with freedom of speech.

Are you for real, Jenny? Dry up your literal tears and explain how God chose this Obama fellow. Is this the black God of Obama’s church which is Africa centric supported by Louis Farrakhan and his ilk? I belong to a Christian church and we receive no announcement that God chose anyone, including Hillary. Perhaps you aught to calm down and check out Obama’s church and their beliefs yourself and then make an inform statement.

Are people serious God chose Obama, man this is really beginning to sound like 3rd world country rhetoric. These kind of idiotic statements is what comes from countries that fall all over their black leaders and when you check the history of these countries, the same black leader that they idolize are the one that deal in corrouption, their country have poor human relations, their infrastructure is the weakest and black people are the ones that suffer the most, so let kill the Obama is the chosen one talk we really don’t need that kind of belief on in the USA.

TONY–I’m glad you get it, but neither of your explanations cover, Utah, Delaware, Connecticut, or Missouri–all states without caucuses and especially large population of blacks. By the way, who even cares about the Democratic “base”? Rallying the base is a divisive republican tactic that we should be trying to avoid anyway. We should be working towards goals of all American not just the Democratic “base”. Maybe you know what the Democratic base is–I don’t, but I know that over 500,000 more people want change than not. I know that SEIU can endorse whoever they want and their members voted to endorse Obama. Maybe they were in the 500,000. I know the SEIU backing Obama after he criticized them earlier is the greatest sign of change occurring in this campaign. I know that McCain is setting up a great political trap for Obama to destroy the effect of the greater than $130M Obama has raised thus far, to the nearly $50M McCain has raised. It’s a great tactic that can only be played against someone who is vocal about their principles, and Obama hasn’t refused, he just hasn’t responded at all and likely because there is still a race going on if anyone hadn’t noticed. But I will make you a deal TONY–If Obama refuses public funds I will vote for Hillary. Lol That’s how much trust I place in Obama’s words. I don’t know what to tell you–I just think the man has solid morals, a good ear, believes in what he says, and believes in doing the right thing. That’s good enough for me not to vote for the Clintons.

Obama has raised so much money in primary. How much has he spent? How much more can he raise in the general election? A lot of people got tire of his beautiful speeches in this two months. Besides that, what else can he do? Wait for the skeletons in the closet to be exposed? Don’t you see that? Vote for Hillary if you want Democrats to take over the white house.

I believe a lot of the money Obama is raising is coming from the middle east. It scares me with his ties over there that it’s possible he may become president. I know history says all powerful nations fall after about two hundred year and I think he would be the beginning of the United States becoming a third world country. We can say what we want and you and I have no influence on how people will vote. They have made up their minds so why try changing them.
I do think we should be very careful who we vote for by your own judgment and be sure it is good for the country. We want change but what will this change bring. I don’t want another Bush in there but also hope we don’t elect a maniac as US President that we will pay dearly for down the road.

I agree with you Jack. I think our country is going to be destroyed from within by these young liberals that do not know how our freedom was won and stayed free. People from the middle east want to destroy us and will use any tool they can to do it.

Obama has been negatively campaigning against Hillary from the beginning. What is he complaining about? Nothing negative about Hillary, it’s just the facts.

Obama is all slogans and it seems he is not the man for uniting, but spliting the democratic party or America. See how the black voters voted. It worries me as we can not vote along the racial line for a better future for all Americans. Hillary is a much better and trustworthy candedate. Democrats and independents should have a better understanding of the issues.

Yes SJ, that is correct. Especially considering that he can’t even make up his mind about what kind of change he is talking about. Some of the change he espouses is contradictory to what he does himself.

Obama was not pointing out great speaches he was comparing himself to those great Americans.Men who paid enormous prices of sacrific to achieve thier goals.It takes more than words and hope of change to get change we need as a contry.I dont think comparing yourself to great men is going to get us there.

Folks, these aren’t his words.
He used them with no real difference, the order was changed slightly, he PLAGARIZED the man who ran for office, Patrick Devel. Did he give him credit? No.
word for word.
This loser is full of hot air, and the american people are not stupid enough to go for this fraud.
answer this if you can…..yes you can……NOT.
If a woman were running with the same level of experience that this clown has would she have even made it this far?
yeah right.
Sexism. That is the glass that will shatter all over the Obama campaign pretty soon. A female will win the Nomination of the democratic party that doesn’t want the equivilant of a 17 year old teenager with a manual the day a crisis strikes the US again. We want a tested, vetted leader and that is Hillary.

cassidywilly sorry i meant SJ and not you.please,i was annoyed

JFK, MLK, FDR, Lincoln, and Jefferson; their great speaches and writings did not invoke or use the words of others. They were original. Unlike Obama who’s never had an original thought, and must copy the work of everyone including Hillary and even McCain. —- Lets just say goodbye to the phony baloney Obama.

Obama sited many words other people said to make a point that words matter.The thing he didn’t say is that they said it once not over and over and over.

How can you claim to be a great communicator when you steal the speeches of others and depend on a teleprompter to deliver them? Obama should receive an oscar for his performance of a presidential candidate.

Abe Lincoln, Churchill, George Washington, Roossevelt, Gen Ike, Gen Westmoreland, MLK, Malcolm X, JFK, B. Bhutto,Indira Ghandi, and a host of others, have over the years, made electrifying speeches that bare fruit. Powerful speeches by the virtue of their substance, have inspired and institutionalized changes in our society.
Barak(“Lightening”)Obama is a visionary, a reformer and a man who has great plans for our nation. He is a uniter and the only candidate at the moment, that would bring the country back to her glory. It is DONE. He is that candidate for (“Change”)
Hilary Clintons candidacy is nothing but..”all hats and no cattle”

If Hillary thinks that Obama should meet McCain and have an agreement over the public financing, Hillary must first quits to seek the nomination and endorses Obama. At this point, Obama will be the Democratic Nominee and will negotiate with McCain.

And now we know he stole the speech and presented as being his own.
The same way he steals Hillary ideas months afterwards and tries to present them as new and fresh.
What a fraud.
A plagiarist as well as a hypocrite for not being the agent of change he claims to be. Nice choice.
Lets hope Democrats wake up and have more than a little buyers remorse. This man has done little except master how to deliver a speech – and the words aren’t even his own.
He did however manage how Washington truly works by giving a 5 million dollar earmark, basically a taxpayer gift to Michelle Obama’s employer. An employer which made a 100 million dollar profit and hardly in need of 5 million dollars in taxpayer money. Unless of course, that 200k raise that Michelle Obama eventually received was a pay for play more similar to how Obama truly works and his own words again, proof false.
American needs HELP not Hope !
