in the end his color is going to doom him - i talked to an 18 year old female American today, asked her if she was going to vote for Obama - her reply was 'no he's black' as if it was a ridiculous question to even ask.

Too funny. He will not lose the race because of color... he will lose the race because of lack of qualifications. Wait for the debates to make this real clear. That one he did a couple weeks ago in California was horrible.
The problem with Socialists is they can pretty up their plans in a speech but when it comes down to hammering them for their true intentions they can not tell the truth because no one would vote for them.
What I found amazing was the people in the crowd tonight cheering for more war... I sat there in amazement saying to myself, "All these people need to do is listen to his speech and he is telling you what he plans to do... listen closely".
obama said (paraphrasing), "continue to protect Israel and keep Iran from getting nuclear capabilities while fighting off "Russian aggression" and preparing for "all future conflicts"."
Let us not forget the Democrat party has always been the party of war... so he will merely be picking up the baton and running with it.
Before the children on here say, "WTF are you talking about!! Democrats hate war!"
WWI -> Wilson (D)
WWII -> FDR (D)
Korea -> Truman (D)
Vietnam -> JFK (D) LBJ (D) ended by: Nixon
Kosovo -> Clinton(D)
IRAQ -> BUSH 1 & 2 (R)
Democrats love a good war... as long as it is theirs.
