People go and see Senator Obama speak because he is a phenominal speaker who speaks honestly and powerfully about the needs for change in this country. He has the plans to back that up. Check his website out. It's also interesting that he is being criticized for having more money than any of the other candidates. Sounds like a case of sour grapes to me. He has more money because thousands of regular people make regular donations to his campaign each month and he is better at organizing grassroots fundraising than any of the other candidates. That's a positive in my book. People throughout America support Obama because they believe he will follow through on his vow to try as hard as possible to bring grassroots change to the political system and engage the American people in social reforms. Most of his supporters are not blindly following him because of his charisma. Instead, they agree with his ideas and admire his intelligence, character and strength.

Go to each of the candidate's sites and ask them questions. Find out where they stand on the issues-i did - if u're lazy, stop reading now... ...it took me 3 days to piece together and compare all the 'issue' and plans and I picked my choice, not based on CNN, MSNBC or even the Colbert Report but based on MY knowledge and research into each of the lives and ASSOCIATIONS of each candidate. YOU should do the same. As an independent, I find it interesting that Mrs McCain is off limits while Mrs Obama is fair game... I think it is time WE American start 'reading up'.

They had no problem with going after Bill Clinton. Its the way the democratic race has been done. The news people want Obama so everything has been against Hillary. Even if she won the press talked her down. Now they act like she dont count and her supporters are going to go to Obama when the Republican and Democratic vote. Well I voted for Hillary and I will never vote for Obama I will vote for John Mccain. When Bill made a comment in South Carolina they made it a race thing. Even though the news people and every one will estimate if a state has more blacks its for Obama . Thats no different than the statement Bill made but you dont see anyone calling you'll racist. When they bring up the incedent that happened with Bill and his affair they act like Hillary did it. When they should look at how she handles herself. She shows great strength to forgive and gone on. I wonder if Obama did it how would his wife handle it. I bet she wouldnt. A president should be strong and be able to handle anything and not let it show. When clearly Obama does not have that tact. He shows that it bothered him that they attacked his wife. When you run a country you cant let anything affect your judgement or let anyone get to you or let people see your vulnerability. Hillary would be a better president and people if they vote for Obama or Mccain this country is in for more problems. Everyone liked Bush and look what he did. I truly believe Obama and his wife believe what his paster preached. I believe he is saying what people want to hear. He is a good speaker but that does not mean he would be a good president. Its like a car dealer, you go on a car lot and know what you want and someone comes out and talks you in to something else. Then you get home and it turns out to be a lemon and you cant return it. You are stuck with it. How can you not count Florida and Mich when in the final election you want to count them then. Both canidates did they same thing for both states the votes should stay as they are and should count as they were done. People voted as they wanted Obama should only get what went for him and Hillary should get what went for her. No official should have the right to change that. It was the officials who messed up not the people. Why shouldn't Obama's wife be a target. They had no problem with going after Bill Clinton. Its the way the democratic race has been done.

I am concerned that disappointment will turn into disillusionment. Please look at the last 8 years. Can you really say that you are better off than you were before. What have the Republicans done for women, the working class family, or those who need a helping hand? What is it that John McCain offers you that would cause you to vote for him? Your political power is in your vote. Please don't use it out of disillusionment. The barrier has been broken.

She and her husband has done alot for this country and blacks. But because you have done alot for me, that don't mean that i owe you does it? Barb.....I feel you were buying into that phrase that she used so much to win West Virginia. Which was that Mr Obama can not win the white vote. He would not be where he is today if he didn't have the white vote. You think about that. Kathie/Canada......Last time I checked, it was an American election. Unless you have anything positive to say about our future leaders, keep your negative comments to yourself or your people in your great country. Jan/Wood Dale,IL....Mr Obama has you convinced that he's arrogant. Then what about your girl Mrs Clinton? How much of your own money do you have to spend before you realize that you can't WIN!!!!!!! But that's what happens when you are use to always getting your way. You don't know how to act when someone(meaning the majority of the Dem Party) tells you NO. Nicole/Michigan.....You said you smell more Bush-ism from Mr. Obama? I say blow your nose and take another smell after you do alittle more homework about Mr. Obama! Now a special thanks goes out to the following for not being biased. Brent / Debbie,NJ / Rachel-LV,NV / Vee(STT) / Phil-Cherterton,IN / Jane-Detroit,MI / Cathy / But to these ladies I Love you dearly for your comments: Jacquelyn George, Linda, Harriet Atkinson. Also thanks for the positive support from Noel-Toronto,Canada and Gary- Vancouver,Canada. And to all the other democrats.....If you are really a democrat than don't be mad when your girl is on the side line wishing she was in the game. As a Democrat we all should support the party no matter who the person is as long as he/she repesent our views. I just pray that you all do alittle more research on Mr. Obama. Because you will find that he is the best person to unite this country. He's the best of 2 worlds...mine(black) and yours(white). He can relate to us all not just me or not just you. But us all!!! It will take someone who is mixed to bring us all together. Someone who was born poor and can really understand the real problems of OUR country....THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA. Please don't forget our last president. And what he stood for and how the country has fallen because of a C student being elected as President.

Dear friends, I wonder why a person who is worth over 100 million dollars and wishes to be the next President of USA is proud of and think that it is morally alright to exploit the poorly paid, hard working Americans, blue collar workers, who she said so eloquently said that she is their champion?

Dear friends, I wonder why a person who is worth over 100 million dollars and wishes to be the next President of USA is proud to ignore the rules jointly agreed upon by ALL candidates under DNC before the primaries?

Dear friends, I wonder why a person who is worth over 100 million dollars and wishes to be the next President of USA is proud of and think that it is morally alright to exploit the "success" in WV to get donations in order to reduce debts, knowing fully well that based on the rules she can not be the nominee?
Dear friends where has our commonsense and logics gone?

Ken, Gary, you and many "pro-Clinton" persons are all the time going on all CNN blogs with negative attacks on Obama. It is pity that all you guys know is hate! By the way what is the colour of you heart? I hope it is white so that you can feel on top of the world, and skip this enormous inferiority complex that is driving you guys to be writing such filth on the blog! You know pretty well who and what you represent, don't hide behind! Hillary.

What a crock! After all of the Wrights preachings and teachings that Obama has attended for 20 yrs. The hatred towards the white community and the United States, now we should believe he is a loving christian? We, all Americans should now follow Obama on his path to the presidency? Don't forget his middle name is Muslin! and he has followers from Hamad! What does Obama think about Abortion? Gay rights? Gun control? Pledge of Allegiance in the schools? In God We Trust on the money we spend? Where are the real concrete economy and health issue solutions in his speeches? Its all a show filled with empty words period! He is not ready for this presidency period! obama now is distributing advertisement picturing a cross in the background and trying to convince the American public of his religious beliefs.
