barak obama is the right candidate beause clintons history has too much bone of contention like the monica liousky saka and bosnia visit lies of hillary which MCcain will use to TO WIN HER EASILY

ABRHAM, CALIFORNIA, U.S

Wright Brought Obama and Michelle together as husband and wife and on the other hand Baptized Obama'sDaughter, that was it. Media should stop blaming obama for what Wright say because Obama Wright are Two different people.

Emanuel, NJ, USA

I am not an American, but I follow up the American election campaign very closely. Whether it is Obama or Clinton will win the nomination for the democratic party isnt the issue but: is either candidate capable of winning the White House from the GOP and save us & America from a third Bush Term?

Ramez Kamal, Riyadh, Saudi Arabia

Obama does not need America's cheap sympathy. What America needs is to face up to their decline internationally. America is a country that has no values. And like the British Empire, and all other Empires they crumble, America is about to collapse, it will bring down Britain too, by association.

If Barrack Obama is not nominated as the Democratic Nominee, then the Democratic Party will have condemned the US and much of the world, to a Dark Age of Cronyism and National Stagnation. WAKE UP America, you are the Leaders of the Free World... for God's sake pick a Leader who can inspire and lead.

Bruce R, Plymouth, UK

Barack Obama has done well in caucuses and not in primaries. He seems therefore to lack true popular appeal and instead is mounting a coup using the narrow base of Democratic registered caucuses. He wants to be the "leader" of America. This is not what the Founding Fathers made the Presidency for.

Tim, Leeds, England

If American claim to be a Democracy, Rev Wright has a right to his opinion. That's a Democracy, you don't have to agree with every one. You have a right to your own opinion that is Democracy. That's Obamas first failure, you do not have to agree with every body, because they have their own opinion.

I have made a few spelling errors in what I meant to say , but I'll take back none of my words. When I think of what has gone on I feel sick. I could never dare to put my self in the place of Black Americans who have suffered the racist system that has dogged their lives, I feel psycall pain.

Daphne Kenward, Cambridge, UK

Obama has beaten Hillary fair and square. He played by the rules and with all of Hillary's 35 yrs of experience she is the one who could not close the deal. If America wanted Hillary to be President this nomination process would have been over 3 months ago. I trust the DNC will do the right thing.

Give the man a chance... And yes, can be a member of a group and not know what's going on. I lived next door to a 2-time convicited child rapist in 2 states for 2 plus across the street from a school before we and the community found out! You really don't know people!

Kevin, Chicago, IL

I have been a solid supporter of Obama, now I do not think he can win without Rev Wright, that is what made him stand out above the rest, the truth hurts, but if you do not address the issues facing America, the only people who is being fooled is Americans them selves. The truth has to be told.

Daphne Kenward, Cambridge, United Kingdom

White people tried to cover up the history of black people because it suits their agenda. They invented 1st 2nd & 3rd world. has any one ever asked these evel men of power why one man is treateds differently from anothey because of their colour or race,an inconvienent truth. Obama stood for truth.

Daphne Kenward, Cambridge, United Kingdom

There is another scandal bubbling away which John Armor, Election Law Expert , says Hillary is involved in the "largest election law fraud in US history." A Bill Clinton appointed judge in California has refused to hear the FBI led case until after the primary nomination. Nothing to see here....

Rob M., Mobile, Alabama

Obama does not stand a chance of winning due to his ties with the Radical Reverend Wright. The American People will never vote for him after all the skeltons are out of the closet. The Dems only chance is with Hillary Clinton.

Russell MacDonald, Huelva, Spain

As for Superdelegates and their airs of self importance, let history judge them harshly if they don't make the right decision and simply fold to the puerile media attacks on their best candidate, Barack Obama. Hillary can NEVER beat John McCain, not with all the skeletons in her cupboard!!

Jimmy C, Letchworth Garden City, UK

The Democrats need to address the inconvenient truths that some in America will not vote for a female President whilst others will not vote for a black President. If they want to have a Democrat at the white house they need to choose now and back the one most likely to win.

Mike, Alicante, Spain

American voters seem to be very fickle. They seem not to have any true political convictions if it is so easy for them to condem Obama based on what his ex-Pastor said. It is sad to see such a young and bright politician going through what he is experiencing for such nonsense "issues".

Pat, Desmoines,

The pressure that was applied to Nancy Larson by the Clinton campaign was heavy. I admired her for doing what she did. She has character. I find it hard to believe she could go for Clinton after all the soul searching she went through to choose Obama.

Ron M, Gainesville, USA

I sense the mainstream media are turning on Obama.
That's the end of the line for him.
The Democrat elite have set the dogs on him because they fear the Republicans are going to walk all over them.
Bad luck guys & you've only got Hilary left & she's not too popular either.

Graham Richards, Brisbane, Australia

The big question for Democrats is "Can Obama beat McCain?" This Democrat says NO WAY.

Deb Ripley, New York, USA

I truly believe Nancy Larson and other superdelegates should stay with Senator Obama. As Governor Richardson stated, Senator Obama is a one in a lifetime leader The revron Wright controversy was handled very well under the circumstances. Our country needs to move forward instead of backwards.

Theresa, Las Vegas, NV.

From an external perspective, this whole 'election' campaign is like watching a dentist pull teeth (but it is the USA and anything can happen in the US).
It also appears though the curious American affliction, belief in some bizarre sky fairy, is a factor in elections; the 'need' for a messiah.

Frank Collins, Melbourne, Australia

This was expected. Perhaps america is not ready for a black president or the blacks are not ready to cash on this opportunity. The pastor is nursing his ego and ego let down average people. It is sad but history will not forgive Jerimiah Wright.
However Americans still have sympathy for Obama.

Syed Ahmed, Dallas, TX-USA

I'm 64 years old, a teacher and supported the Clintons. I firmly believe that caucus results and votes cannot be ignored. I don't understand what makes some people think they know what is best for the party (Larry Gates). Votes should count.
