I find it really funny that ...I find it really funny that a lot of people in this region want Barack Obama. I can only assume that it's because of his strong stance on Iraq, because it can't be for his other social beliefs. I really don't see this region supporting gay marriage and pro-choice, amongst all those other liberal ways that are so demonized on this site. Funny.

One example of greatness is Jesse Owens. Another is Helen Keller, Lance Armstrong (7 times Tour de France Cyclist/Winner).

Obama is all rhetoric and ...Obama is all rhetoric and hot air. He seems to me to be nothing more than a populist who just says all the nice warm and fuzzy things that the voters want to hear. Like all the clap trap about change, without ever actually providing concrete examples of what it is he wants to change, and what he will change it to.
Obama can barely stand his ground next to another Democratic Presidential apirant (Clinton). I would love to see him in a Diplomatic dispute with a strong leader like Sarkozy or Putin.
One thing I do admire him for is his willingness to have open dialogue with Tehran, Hamas and Hizbollah, instead of the idiotic Bush policy of 'not negotiating with terrorists'. As if bombing them is a far better solution.
At the end of the day, for my money, Clinton is the most compentent, experienced and inclusive of the contenders. In fact I'd rather see McCain win before Obama.
Gypsy said
Agree completely Andrew. ...Agree completely Andrew. I think Obama's has potential and I want to see him run again in 8 years, but not now. He's not what America needs right now.

These people doesnt have to get the best facilities (in their field) to function.
A Great Leader doesnt have to be "The President".
A Great Sportsman doesnt have to be the "Fastest".
A Great Thinker doesnt have to be the best Student in Class.
A Great Architect doesnt have to be a Good Painter.
They achieve greatness irrespective of the environment around them.
Barrack is on his way to Greatness (it is quite visible through his thinking, speaking and actions). He doesnt even have to be the President to achieve whatever he is bound to achieve.

Good point ...Good point Gypsy.
Colin Powell's decision not to run for President was based on his fears of being assasinated too. Maybe Obama wants to complete the hat-trick of assasinated Black leaders, following on from Martin Luther King and Malcolm X.
Teddy Kennedy didn't want to be number three of the assasinated Kennedys, after the deaths of Jack and Bobby.
Americans Presidents don't have terribly good odds when it comes to people trying to kill them. Just ask Lincoln, Garfield, McKinley and JFK, who were all killed while in office. At least 11 others were targetted (Jackson, Theodore Roosevelt, Franklin Roosevelt, Harry Truman, Richard Nixon, Gerald Ford, Jimmy Carter, Ronald Reagan, Bill Clinton and both the George Bushes). Taylor and Harding both died in suspicious circumstances.
America simply isn't ready for a black President, even if Oprah disagrees.
Gypsy said
Not even a black president, ...Not even a black president, they aren't ready for a "far" left leaning liberal either.

Solid84 said
andrew11121 on Collin Powell ...I have to strongly disagree with you on that. A man that volunteers to lead troops in the jungles of Vietnam would probably wouldn't back down from running for president for fear of being assasinated.
Colin Powell didn't run for presidency because of personal family issues at the time. Read his book.
Gypsy said
I think Colin Powell didn't ...I think Colin Powell didn't run because he knew the W ruined his credibility with America. Shame, I think he was a good man and might have made a good president.

Solid84 said
You are ignoring onther factor ...Collin Powell is simply too old to run for president. He is 71, about the same age as McCain. Have you noticed how much crap McCain is getting/will be getting about his age?

Gypsy ...regarding ur comments on Muslims votes to Obama.
yes may be his thoughts doesn't match with Islamic view(i don't know) but i consider all these as an internal issues so doesn't matter
i concern in his thoughts in external policies which directly affects me and my nation
so f he solve the the iraqi situation and give the gays their rights (inside USA) so what? more or less none of them will match with islamic views absolutly.

I checked out his Wikipedia ...I checked out his Wikipedia bio, and although it doesn't get into where he stands on policy issues, I have to say that I do like the idea of a President with ACTUAL war time experience. From my experience, and from the soliders I've met, people who've actually been to war are less likely to throw a nation into a useless war.

solid...will have to wait and see on that one.. ...one thing I find funny about Presidents is that the one who comes into office surely will take full credit for anything good that happens...BUT it usually takes about 4 years for the results to come in, which would mean the former President was the one who implemented the act...Ok..that sounded odd but I know what I'm talking about probably just didn't explain it well...
so, whoever gets the Presidency after Bush isn't going to have anything good to take the credit... :)

Petraeus's policy ...After Hillary's "Suspension of Belief" comment last September, I am pretty sure he is very anti-Hillary. That has to count for something.

Scarlett ...Why others care. Bill acted on Hillary's order right. Monica performed the task required by Hillary. She just obeyed the Orders. (I think Hillary has lost her all teath. That why she delegate her task to Monica)

Being humble! ...dw (darling wife) thinks Obama is the most honest and humble. That is, Hillary is proud & thinks highly of herself. There isn't anything wrong with that as long as the person doesn't loose touch with who they are. Obama definitely is in touch with his roots and is humble guy.
Personally, I really don't care: they're all Democrats! I am focussed on getting the right Republican in the White House.
Unfortunately, I'm not American (I was born on the opposite side of the 49th parallel) so I can't vote...but...if I could...
