Socialist-Marxist-Communist, Say Hello to Michelle Obama

Obama Video Files

General Colin Powell endorsed Senator Barack Obama for the presidency. In his endorsement, Powell not only talked about Obama's qualifications to be an 'extraordinary' president, he also talked about McCain's negative campaign, particularly the Bill Ayers 'connection'. Someone needs to question McCain, Palin, and their surrogates on the implications of their constant references to Bill Ayres. That someone is me.

 

"We are One" is the essence of Bhagavad-Gita in one line, which reveals the spiritual secrets to achieving worldly peace and prosperity. We are reminded every year of the gruesome human tragedy that faced this planet earth on September 11, 2001.

Every one of us, every rational thinking person living on this planet, has some unanswered questions that jolt our consciousness regarding the scale of hatred for fellow human beings.

If there is one thing Sarah Palin is not it is that she is not a work at home Mom. In this day and age where more and more women are trying to find ways to work from home so that they can spend more time with the kids, Sarah Palin is one step away from uprooting her whole family and moving to Washington.

One of the silliest arguments against her that I have heard is that she has no family values.

The likelihood of John McCain`s administration being isolationist leads to a dangerous overweighting in favour of the military industrial complex at the expense of trade with the rest of the world and the inability of the US electorate to recognize this danger in time to promote either Clinton, the social and sociologically aware, or Obama, the statesman, to the White House.

Is John McCaina true conservative Republican or just a wolf in sheeps clothing?

As Election Day approaches, one of the most publicized presidential races of the past several decades has captivated the minds of people around the world and set records for participation in the US democratic primary system. As the first woman to run as a mainstream candidate for president, New York Senator Hillary Clinton has quite a race in front of her by anyone's standards.

Let's continue with more Democratic "hopefuls" for the 2008 Presidential election. None have announced that they will seek election, but don't be surprised if they do.

U.S. Senator Evan Bayh of Indiana: He is the Son of former U.S. Senator Birch Bayh. Evan Bayh was a possible running mate for Al Gore in the 2000 election. Senator Bayh is from the right part of the country and is a moderate.

For two of the past two Presidential elections, the Democrats have miserably failed to produce a viable candidate who could sway the entire United States. Instead of complaining about how bad the next three years will be, Democrats now have the opportunity to produce a viable "front runner." It really shouldn't be that hard to find a candidate who can identify with the American people.

Horserace Journalism: It's been a rough month for some of the presidential front-runners in Iowa, according to new polls of the caucus contests.

Democrats Hillary Clinton and John Edwards saw their support drop. So did Republicans Rudy Giuliani and John McCain. Among the leading contenders, only Democrat Barack Obama made gains.

Republican Mitt Romney, who has been running a good campaign in Iowa, has inched into the top tier of his party's candidates by finishing third. Potential candidate Fred Thompson is close behind.

April 26, 2007 — If you were looking for big fireworks or a knockout punch in the first Democratic presidential debate of the 2008 election cycle, you will no doubt be somewhat disappointed tonight. No one candidate seemed to dominate the field.

Though much of the coverage of the race thus far has been through a "Clinton vs. Obama" frame, the front runners were just two of eight candidates on the stage, and each got their chance to make their case. In fact, it was the two most unknown candidates representing the far left wing of the Democratic Party — Rep. Dennis Kucinich, D-Ohio, and former Sen. Mike Gravel, R-Alaska — who created the relatively little heat on the stage.

"And I got to tell you, after standing up with them, some of these people frighten me — they frighten me," said Gravel about his opponents.

Iraq dominated more time than any other single issue, as the presidential hopefuls continued to differentiate themselves on the subject in what have now become familiar ways to the Democratic activists who have been closely following the campaign.

"I am proud that I opposed this war from the start," said Sen. Barack Obama, D-Ill., before pivoting to his support for a phased withdrawal plan.

"If I knew then what I now know, I would not have voted that way," said Sen. Hillary Clinton, D-N.Y., in her usual refrain..........

The responses are starting to come in from the Democratic side to Rudy Giuliani's suggestion that the nation will be safer from attack if a Republican is elected to the White House in 2008:

"Rudy Giuliani today has taken the politics of fear to a new low and I believe Americans are ready to reject those kind of politics," Sen. Barack Obama, D-Ill., says in statement e-mailed to reporters this morning.

The Democratic presidential candidate continues: .............

NASHUA, N.H. — Republican presidential contender Rudy Giuliani said Tuesday he couldn't evaluate whether President Bush's 10-week-old troop increase in Iraq was working.

"I don't know the answer to that," the former New York City mayor told reporters after speaking with a group of business leaders in the first-in-the-nation primary state.

Giuliani did, however, have an opinion on what he said is necessary for victory in Iraq _ an emphasis on helping Iraqis rebuild their country.

"By build I mean, re-establish the infrastructure, both physical and political, and the emphasis on that is going to be key to whether it does work or not," he said in response to a question about whether Bush's troop boost that was aimed at pacifying violence-plagued Baghdad was achieving results.....

WASHINGTON, April 22 — The last time Jonathan Prince checked, there were nearly 40 requests for John Edwards, the Democratic presidential candidate for whom he works, to appear at a candidate debate or forum.

They came from state Democratic parties and county Democratic committees. From newspapers and television stations. From unions, advocates for the homeless, church groups, black Democrats, Hispanic Democrats, Jewish Democrats and an association of big-city mayors.

“It’s a mess,” said an exasperated-sounding Mr. Prince, Mr. Edwards’s deputy campaign manager. “Debates are important, but in these big multicandidate races they end up not being an exchange of ideas, but just an exchange of sound bites. They have become a distraction.”......

Here's news guaranteed to tickle anyone who, like me, is both a geek and a presidential-campaign junkie: Yahoo, Slate, and the Huffington Post have announced that they're going to cohost the first-ever online presidential debates during the 2008 campaign. There will be one for Democratic candidates and one for the Republicans, and both will be hosted by Mr. Charlie Rose.

The press release doesn't have a lot of detail, other than that the debates will be held after Labor Day of this year, and that the Democratic one will have opening remarks by DNC Chairman Howard Dean. So I have a few questions. Such as....

Who will participate? ....
