they're all related. really. they're in a family together this is rediculous. so maybe this is a bit too far. but look at this. women vies against black man to become the next president, both historically the first in this country... man this is like the jerry springer show. except they make our laws, and get fat off my money.. hmm. start global wars for personal financial gain? politcal shadows that are too dark to ever be seen? this is rediculous just think how related this whole twisted family of government is.
you, ashville, virginia
Who knows...maybe this might placate some of those [impossibly simple minded] people not voting for Obama because he's black.
Look! Obama is related to [white] Dick Cheney!
- not to mention his [white] mother was a Kansas girl and if you search 'Obama and grandparents' in Google images there's a lovely picture of him and his [white] family!
I hope he can overcome the [pathetic] divisions in US Society as a truly inspiring AMERICAN.

I think i'ts funny. I'm telling my rebublican friends. They don't believe me. however if barac obana ends up in montana, i will vote for him.

....You would think that there are more important points to bring up in the course of presidential elections---not to mention more important things in the world....
Of course, this could very well be a continuation of the ploy to get Clinton in office. After all, if we have some people saying they wouldn't vote for Obama due to his name sounding like Bin Laden's (which is one of the more insipid comments ever made), we'll have more not voting for him due to this.
