This video made me sit up and listen. Just take the time to watch it. Then share it with others.

Yes, Obama/Biden for me.......

Oops I hit the reply button.......

Yes, Obama/Biden

Well I have listened and continue to listen to both sides.  Am married to a Republican.  I choose to listen to the candidate DIRECTLY not other pundits, preachers, journalists.......not snipets, speeches from others on either side as well.  And most especially not commercials.

Here is MY OWN PERSONAL criteria:

Who represents the values I PERSONALLY think are important.

Who will be the best stewards of our country especially dealing with the economy,

health plan for all, choice, supreme court justices, going green, and getting us out of Iraq etc. etc.

Who has the right temperament to get the job done.

Mavericks are unpredictable.

There is much more.....right now I am thinking what REALLY matters to me ....Just my humble opinion.........to each his/her own opinion..

Thanks for reading if you got this far.

You are right Doc. Race has nothing to do with it, and I won't give in to emotional blackmail and vote for someone I don't want in the White House just to prove I'm not racist. I live being fair each day of my life. I don't have to prove anything to anyone.  

That is a fascinating video, Carolyn.  Thank you for sharing it.  Anna

No Obama here... I do listen to him, and I am actually tired of listening to him.   He will not get my vote!  Interesting video.

What motivates someone to spout such hateful rhetoric?

I couldn't watch this entire video. I heard him refer to "the devil named Barack Hussein Obama," but I persevered. I heard him denounce Obama in several other hateful ways. I heard him ask viewers to boycot CNN, ABC, CBS, NBC (others?), knowing the only thing left is Fox. But when he said Obama would be sworn in as a Muslim with his hand on the Koran, I knew I didn't need to witness any other lies.

My only honest impression of the video is that it isn't necessary to be white to be racist. I know that is probably incorrect, because the gentleman is probably motivated otherwise.

The people who find this video worthwhile are those seeking confirmation of the lies they already believe. It's rediculous to think that tearing Obama down will somehow make McCain look better.

What I find most interesting is that people who claim to be sooooo religious could choose McCain, who cheated on his wife, REPEATEDLY and publically, then dumped her for a young rich blonde.  This crooked old man (Keating Five anyone?) has a hair-trigger temper, admittedly knows very little about economics, and picked a woman as a side-kick to get women's votes.  Now people are trying to defend him saying that he was pressured into choosing Palin.  That's even worse!  He couldn't even stand his ground for something as vital as a running mate?  What else can he be "pressured" into doing?

I cast my vote for neither one. Since I will not vote for either I do not have the right to complain when either of them gets in office. I will just voice a brief thought, no mater who gets in office I believe this country is in for a rude awakening. God Bless America!

I'm sure one day this phrase will be gone.

I don't think we should be out there pointing fingers in peoples' faces and calling them racist or ignorant; instead we need to educate them that if they care about holding on to their jobs, their health care, their pensions, and their homes -- if they care about creating good jobs with clean energy, child care, pay equity for women workers -- there's only going to be one candidate on the ballot this fall who's on their side... only one candidate who's going to stand up for their families... only one candidate who's earned their votes... and his name is Barack Obama!

And come November we are going to elect him president.

And after he's elected we are going to hit the ground running so that, years from now, we're going to be able to tell our grandchildren that 2008 was the year this country finally turned its back on men like George Bush and Dick Cheney and John McCain.

We're going to be able to say that 2008 was the year we started ending the war in Iraq so we could use that money to create new jobs building wind generators, solar collectors, clean coal technology and retrofitting millions of buildings all across this country.

We're going to be able to look back and say that 2008 was the year the tide began to turn against the Rush Limbaughs, the Bill O'Reillys, the Ann Coulters and the right wing hate machine.
