i think there are some citizens of south chicago, and the rest of illinois who will tell you that obama HAS done much worthwhile work.

do you really think obama came from nowhere? he is running for president because his grass roots constituents begged him to, and he has the talent, intelligence and courage to pull it off.
you will be talking out of your own dumb azz come november 5th.-

For those who believe Obama was asked to run on his own merits, think again. Why would ANYONE experienced in politics want or believe a basic nobody can actually lead a country when he hasn't even led a boy scout troop? Obama is a puppet plain and simple. Those "grass roots constituents" who "begged him" to run recognized not talen or intelligence but rather ignorance (because he truly doesn't know any better) and inexperience. They know he's young - impressing the young voters, he's of a minority race - winning votes of minorities, and he's ignorant and inexperienced enough to be pushed around and dangled like a puppet by the more intelligent, power hungry, experienced individuals who would otherwise stay in the shadows but want the power of the positioin. Obama needs seasoning before coming into play.

It's simply like this: if your car's motor was broken, would you want an ASE certified, experienced technician fixing it or would you hire someone who was still in high school shop class who's only experience was fixing a flat tire? Give your man time to grow up and he may be president-worthy one day. Right now, nothing personal against him, but he's not qualified by simple virtue of inexperience and ignorance.-

There has never been a bigger puppet than George W Bush, and now McCain has sold out because he will do anything for the fame and to go down in history no matter what damage he does to the country.
McCain is a total sell-out who has been running for the presidency for decades, and only now got the nod from the Republicans because he sold-out any integrity he had left in his soul after selling out his first wife and family for the $.
Obama has more life experience that applies to contemporary America than all Republican politicians put together. Obama is the American Dream. A guy who had zero advantages, unlike Bush and McCain. A guy who got zero handouts or passes, unlike Bush and McCain.
Obama is a real American, unlike Bush and McCain. Obama is an American we can all be proud of, unlike Bush and McCain.
McCain is well beyond his prime, and is nothing more than a reckless temperamental shell of his former `maverick` self.
We can afford a McCain presidency like we can afford another 9/11, Katrina, or Iraq.-

He is owned by the unions:

Unions begin big election effort, By John Wojcik, People's Weekly World
With the primary season over, labor is wasting no time jumping into the fall campaign. The 10-million-member AFL-CIO is expected to endorse Barack Obama, the presumptive Democratic presidential nominee, shortly. The Change to Win federation has already endorsed him.
Once the AFL-CIO officially endorses Obama, it is expected to deploy large numbers of ground troops for the election. It has already budgeted $54.3 million for its own get-out-the vote drive and may, according to its political committee chairman, AFSCME President Gerald McEntee, spend as much as $60 million on the effort.
The Steelworkers have already begun what they say will be 30,000 or more worksite visits by union activists, talking directly to workers about Obama’s positions. They’re emphasizing his proposals for fair trade policies and for creation of millions of good paying “green” manufacturing jobs. The jobs they are talking about include production of solar cells, industrial-sized windmills to power electric turbines, and hybrid automobile engines.
The Service Employees (SEIU), the largest union in the Change to Win federation, voted at their June 2–4 convention in San Juan, Puerto Rico, to spend $85 million for the fall campaign to elect Obama and a bigger Democratic majority in Congress.
An additional $55 million will be spent for a legislative campaign to push for creation of a “universal, comprehensive and affordable national health care plan,” according to a union statement issued after the convention.
In a unique move, SEIU voted to spend $10 million to mount campaigns against legislators on any level who go back on promises they have made to the labor movement.

Organizing in Oregon
The Civil and Human Rights Committee of SEIU Local 503, Oregon Public Employees Union sponsored and hosted a talk by Communist Party Vice Chair Jarvis Tyner, Local 503 retiree activist Ann Montague and union organizer Bob Novick on Friday, August 8 in Portland, Oregon.
The forum was held to reflect on past civil rights struggles and to tie these to the present political moment. The panel featured three slightly different perspectives on the past and on the Obama candidacy. Communist literature was briskly distributed. One woman who attended took a number of items with her for her non-union paper mill.
Plans are in the works to follow up on the weekend with mailings, personal contact and e-mails. Three people have expressed an interest in joining the Party and several more heard about socialism for the first time at these events.-

Union leaders are sometimes corrupt. So are business leaders.
Reply
While Obama is NOT owned by unions, I still like a candidate who the unions support a whole lot more than I like one that Big Oil, Big Pharma and the military-industrial complex supports.
Unions do more for the average American than big business does. If you don't like unions, then you must be anti-free market--a free market uses the law of supply and demand to regulate itself, right? Labor is a commodity, just like oil.
And isn't it really time to drop your Communist smears? Have you EVER heard Obama say he wanted to nationalize industry, abolish profit equalize everyone's pay regardless of their job function? -

And fascist lies are spread at every pro-McCain rally.

Glad to hear the unions and working men and women are finally really going to give it back to the people who have been screwing them for the past three decades. It is time to take this country back from the special interests and trust-fund class to the people who have built and carried it on our backs all these generations.

If Obama needs seasoning, what the hell does Palin need? A seasoning factory??
McCain chose somebody with ZERO experience to be a heartbeat away from the leader of the free world.
McCain`s judgment is horrible, dangerous, reckless, and downright crazy!

Being civilize as an Americans during this elections is important. We should not let any different of opinions in terms of candidates for president let us embarrass our own country, the world is watching us, there are issues with the Americans need to take care off. We must choose a good charactor and hard working person to run this country, it does not matter whether is Republicans or Demoractes, he must be a good charactor understand what stake America is in. Otherwise, this country will fall behind many growing nations and countries with smart citizen choosing smart leaders.
