Today, I'm calling upon every American to support and vote for Senator Barack Obama in this presidential election. As a young American, I want to see a America that everyone that wants a job, can have one. As Americans, we can make history and turn this country back on the right direction!
Senator John McCain and Governor Sarah Palin is not the change that Americans are looking for. Senator Obama's speeches come from his heart and from what he has learned. Governor Palin's 2008 Republican National Convention speech was written by President George W. Bush's speechwriter. If Senator McCain and Governor Palin wants to define ‘change’ as voting with George Bush 90% of the time, that’s their choice.
Each and every time, a new generation has risen up and done what's needed to be done. Today we are called once more - and it is time for our generation to answer that call. Let us be that generation that elect Barack Obama and put America back on track and made it truely great once again.
I've said this from day one of this presidential campaign. I thank Senator McCain for his service for this country but he is not the person that I believe is ready to lead America or even ready to understand the problems that Americans have.
Do we want a President that supports George W. Bush's policies and goals? Do we want a President that opposed creating a federal holiday in honor of Martin Luther King, Jr.? Do we want a President that is against funding of sex education?
Do we want a Vice President that hates community organizers? Do we want a Vice President that abuses her powers? Do we want a Vice President that strongly supports development of oil drilling in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge?
Senator Obama is not in this race for President just to hold an office, but to gather with you to transform America. Senator Obama wants us to win that next battle - for justice and opportunity. Senator Obama wants to win that next battle - for better schools, and better jobs, and health care for all.
I want a President that favors the concept of equal pay for everyone. I want a President that supports a tax plan which includes an $80 billion tax cut for American poor and middle-class families. I want a President that has strong record of support for clean air. I want a President that understands Americans problems and issues. I want a President that wants healthcare for every American.
I want a Vice President that supports teachers and schools. I want a Vice President that wants funding to find new energy sources other then drilling for oil in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge. I want a Vice President that favors adding sexual orientation to the criteria for a hate crime. I want a Vice President that is against giving tax cuts for big corporations.
Democrats, Republicans, and Independents, please join me in supporting Barack Obama for President and Joe Biden for Vice President of the United States of America. I may not be able to vote in this election but tose can vote in America can show the world that we want REAL change!

Dear Obama/Biden friends and supporters:
We've just gotten word that Sen. Biden's event in Des Moines on Monday afternoon will be at the Iowa State Fairgrounds in the Paul Knapp Animal Learning Center, beginning at 3:15 p.m. Doors will open at 1:30 p.m.
There is no charge for the event, which is open to the public.
An email will be sent by the campaign tomorrow morning which will have a link to a special Web site for people to RSVP.
We may have more information Saturday morning about any special seating arrangements.
Pass the word among your Iowa Obama/Biden friends who may be able to attend. Hope to see you Monday.
I've been asked by the Obama/Biden campaign to send to them a list of Biden supporters who should receive a special invitation to Sen. Biden's appearance in Des Moines on Monday.
I have a pretty good list, but don't have contact information for many of those who caucused for Joe in local precincts.and who would love to see him again. That's where we need your help.
Would you search your memory (or call lists, or personal email contact list) and pass along to me the names and email addresses of Biden loyalists who might like to have a ringside seat for his appearance next Monday, and perhaps the chance to personally welcome him back to Iowa as the next Vice President of the United States?
Just send them to me and I'll get them to the campaign staff ASAP.
Hope you'll be able to be part of the "welcome home event" on Monday!

Over half of U.S. voters (51%) think reporters are trying to hurt Sarah Palin with their news coverage, and 24% say those stories make them more likely to vote for Republican presidential candidate John McCain in November. Thirty-nine percent (39%) also believe the GOP vice presidential nominee has better experience to be president of the United States than Democratic presidential nominee Barack Obama. But 49% give Obama the edge on experience, according to a new Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey taken before Palin's historic speech Wednesday night to the Republican National Convention. While Republicans and Democrats predictably favor their party's candidate by overwhelming margins, the experience gap among voters unaffiliated with either party is even narrower than the national totals. Forty-two percent (42%) say Obama has better experience to be president, but 37% say Palin does. The potential problem for Democrats is that Obama, the junior U.S. senator from Illinois and a former state legislator, is the party's standard-bearer, while Palin, an ex-mayor and now governor of Alaska, is number two on her party's ticket.

The Next President and Wife, Vice President and wife Of The United States Of America.....who cares what the media say

Texas. Rep. Ron Paul kicked off his political action group Campaign for Liberty at Tuesday's rally.
"Freedom brings people together," Paul said before a sold-out crowd at Tuesday's Rally for the Republic. var CNN_ArticleChanger = new CNN_imageChanger('cnnImgChngr','/2008/POLITICS/09/02/paul.convention/imgChng/p1-0.init.exclude.html',1,1); //CNN.imageChanger.load('cnnImgChngr','imgChng/p1-0.exclude.html');Paul, who said he entered the presidential race reluctantly, told the roaring audience, "I lost my skepticism. I hope you lost your apathy."
As the congressman stepped on stage, red, white and blue confetti fell from the ceiling during a two-minute standing ovation.
Paul said he entered the presidential race not because of what he wanted to do but because of what he did not want to do.
"I did not want to run people's lives. I did not want to run the economy and I did not want to run the world. I didn't have the authority to do it, and I didn't have the Constitution behind me to do it," said Paul, who has served in the House of Representatives for more than 30 year
TALK ABOUT UNITY>>>>>
While Sen. Barack Obama’s stop in Milwaukee was supposed to be a rally to cap off Laborfest, the presidential nominee instead focused his speech on Hurricane Gustav, asking the audience to pray for the victims of the storm and to donate to the American Red Cross.
“Tonight is not a night for political speeches,” he told the crowd of union workers and supporters Monday evening, “but for Americans to come together as brothers and sisters” to pray for and support residents of the Gulf Coast.“What makes us great is that we rise and fall as one nation,” he said. “The spirit that we extend today and in the days to come . . . that’s a spirit we’ve got to carry with us every day.”
He spoke before an estimated 15,000 people at the Marcus Amphitheater.
This visit is Obama’s second to the state in nine days and falls on the first day of the Republican National Convention in neighboring Minnesota, which was scaled back in deference to the situation in the Gulf Coast.

"Oppo" is a slang term for opposition research. We must all be watching the national convention of that other party this week to be better prepared for the 4-Nov-08 election.
The excerpt below is from The Art of War (Chinese: 孫子兵法; pinyin: Sūn Zǐ Bīng Fǎ), a Chinese military treatise that was written during the 6th century BC by Sun Tzu.
Sun Tzu on the Art of War:
Hence the saying: If you know the enemy and know yourself, you need not fear the result of a hundred battles.
If you know yourself but not the enemy, for every victory gained you will also suffer a defeat.
If you know neither the enemy nor yourself, you will succumb in every battle.

Because he wants to be president?
He was tortured for 6 years at the Hanoi Hilton yet he advocates war and torture. Where was he when Caesar needed a successor. He could have spared us from Caligula and Nero ... or would he have been worse than Caligula and Nero.
The Roman Empire is dead and so are we if we continue to follow Bush doctrine.
A vote for Lassie would be better than a vote for mean McCain. Defense is one thing but bringing our anger to the rest of the world has resulted in Israeli, Russian, and Pakistani aggression. Because we are the only superpower everyone else thinks they can get away with their own "war on terrorism". Even if they are responsible for the hostilities.
Our troops in WWII helped bring peace to the world and we have forgotten our place and responsibilities. McCain will bring more hostility not less. And Bush doctrine has worked to destabilize the world in the pursuit of wealth. Democracy and capitalism are not the same.
Vote Obama.
PALIN IS NO HILLARY
With McCain's advanced age, never has a VP choice been so important. Let’s see if the Republican voters will wage their persistent question at their own VP nominee. Is Sarah Palin, the self-proclaimed “hockey mom” ready to lead after being Alaska’s governor for two years? What do you think his decision says about his judgment? Will voters risk more pocket breaking policies, in a Republican attempt to create their own groundbreaking candidate to pander to Hillary‘s stanch supports?
We understand that change is contagious and that the Republican choice for VP was in response to the inspirational narratives of several of the candidates our party produced. We are pleased that we have motivated inclusiveness; something that doesn’t come naturally to the party of the status quo. While the Republicans are artful at painting a scene, it doesn’t make the picture of value or substantive.
THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES !
I'll write more later when I get to work , but he nailed it.

This means, it is our duty as American Citizens to be unified and not seperate from our core values. John McCain doesn't realize what's best for the American people but Democrats do, and respond by backing Senator Barrack Obama and Joe Biden, foward to the White House on Nov.4
So,Please support Barrack and Joe, so that we as democrats can defeat John McCain. It is time for us as democrats to defeat John McCain in Nov, and take back Congress, so that it helps the Posterity of Americans. The future depends on regaining America's rightful place for our families for generations.
