Default Politics..enter at your own risk.

Can Obama win? Can Hillary win? Obama is very smart andwell spoken, but what about the race thing, will that help or hurt? Hillary is devil spawn, but women like her.

Is there any chance that when it comes down to it, people will vote for a Black guy or a White woman for President?

I am a Republican and refuse to vote Democrat for a National office so neither will get my vote, but maybe some out there can give me some perspective since I tend to live in my little world and rarely venture out.

Barack Obama? A presidential candidate, unbelievable. Some
Americans will actually vote for him-


Very interesting and something that should be considered in your choice.

If you do not ever forward anything else, please forward this to all your contacts...this is very scary to think of what lies ahead of us here in our own United States...better heed this and pray about it and share it.

We checked this out on " snopes.com". It is factual. Check for yourself. (in the search area put in Barack Obama hit enter and see the result for yourself)

Who is Barack Obama?

Probable U. S. presidential candidate, Barack Hussein Obama was
born in Honolulu , Hawaii , to Barack Hussein Obama, Sr., a black
MUSLIM from Nyangoma-Kogel , Kenya and Ann Dunham, a white ATHIEST from
Wichita , Kansas .

Obama's parents met at the University of Hawaii When Obama was two
years old, his parents divorced. His father returned to Kenya . His mother then married Lolo Soetoro, a RADICAL Muslim from Indonesia.?

When Obama was 6 years old, the family relocate to Indonesia. Obama
attended a MUSLIM school in Jakarta . He also spent two years in a
Catholic school.

Obama takes great care to conceal the fact that he is a Muslim.
He is quick to point out that, "He was once a Muslim, but that he also
attended Catholic school."

Obama's political handlers are attempting to make it appear that that he is not a radical.

Obama's introduction to Islam came via his father, and that this influence was temporary at best. In reality, the senior Obama returned to Kenya soon after the divorce, and never again had any direct influence over his son's education.

Lolo Soetoro, the second husband of Obama's mother, Ann Dunham,
introduced his stepson to Islam. Obama was enrolled in a Wahabi
school in Jakarta .

Wahabism is the RADICAL teaching that is followed by the Muslim
terrorists who are now waging Jihad against the western world.
Since it is politically expedient to be a CHRISTIAN when seeking major
public office in the United States , Barack Hussein Obama has
joined the United Church of Christ in an attempt to downplay his Muslim
background. ALSO, keep in mind that when he was sworn into
office he DID NO T use the Holy Bible, but instead the Koran.

Barack Hussein Obama will NOT recite the Pledge of Allegience nor
will he show any reverence for our flag. While others place
their hands over their hearts, Obama turns his back to the flag and slouches.

Let us all remain alert concerning Obama's expected presidential
candidacy.

The Muslims have said they plan on destroying the US from the
inside out, what better way to start than at the highest level - through
the President of the United States , one of their own!!!!

Please forward to everyone you know. Would you want this man
leading our country?...... ??


NOT ME!!!

But it also could be a false statement, well never know...[/align]

FYI,

The email that Kikepiz posted is false http://www.snopes.com/politics/obama/muslim.asp.
This in fact was written by "a volunteer Iowa county coordinator for Hillary Rodham Clinton's presidential campaign" who later resigned:
http://apnews.myway.com/article/20071205/D8TBIDE00.html

What is a shame in this is that the damage is already done. Nobody will really remember the truth just that this rumor went around that EVERYONE read. Gotta love a good smear campaign.

Yesterday was interesting at the polls for super tuesday. one of the voting locations is on my street and I have lived here for 7 years and to be honest I have never seen a black person at the polls (not that Im sitting and watching all day) but yesterday was a different story.
