You make me laugh. Bob Hope also made me laugh, but he got paid for it. I bet you are broke and just trying to fool people. Do you get a stack of one dollar bills and put a one hundred dollar bill on the outside to impress people. You sound like the type.

it''s typically defined by an extended period of time of study in a particular discipline?

did you really need that clarification ... or is this some type of baiting technique?

rohink, bobnjersey *** sure is not an expert. I know a man that didn''t finish the 4th grade that is lot smarter than him. He was worth over 5 million when he died and that was several years ago. He did not inherit it either, he was just a very sharp person that understood people and how to make money. Don''t pay any attention to jersey. Blow Off

[You try to make people think you are smart. You sound like you are on the slow side and maybe need mental help. Anyway you are just a big blow hard and no one respects you.]

actually ... i''m trying to make you look like a fool ... but you''re doing a great job of that all by yourself ... posting the same thing five times ... believing that it carries any more weight by doing so.

is it working on your end?

Note #1: You Clinton Spin Doctors are Bitter, Hatefilled & Heteful and Need to Stay Home or Vote for a Pro-life, Anti-Gay, War Monger and More of the same, 71-72 Yr. old Republican Moderate, that Can''''t Move his Bowels, moreover Move an Audience, like last night, of 1000 to Vote for him, moreover Millions....

McCain`s speed reading skills are the Worse and did you SEE his Geriatric, Depend Wearing, D@mn Near Comatose Audience !!

Oh Yeah Obama will have Problems with that Senior Citizen...

I can''t wait to See, McCain Fumble All over his Words, or Worse, McCain Falling Asleep, during a Debate !!!



Note#2: (PA) Gov. Ed Rendell, one of Clinton''''s most vocal surrogates, shot down this very idea in an interview Wednesday with NY1 News.

Rendell reminded Clinton and her supporters that the choice for Vice President belongs solely to Obama. "He has to make the choice, and it''''s his choice to make," said Rendell. "You don''''t bargain with the Presidential nominee. Even if you''''re Hillary Clinton and you have 18 million votes, you don''''t bargain."

Last week, Rendell seemed optimistic that Clinton would get the V.P. nod. By Wednesday, the Governor had changed his tune, fearing that Clinton could overshadow Obama.

"The rule for the vice president is make sure you never upstage the president," said Rendell. "It''''s rule one. You know, Hillary Clinton in some ways couldn''''t help but upstage, even if she was trying not to."

On the surface it does not seem like a bad idea for Barrack Obama to set up a VP search team to help him make a selection. What sort of baffles me is some of his selections to carry out the mission. I have no doubt Caroline Kennedy is quite intelligent, but why she was picked seems like payback for the Kennedy endorsements After all until now she has not been directly involved in any political campaign that I''m aware of.

The other two choices being long time Washington insiders may seem at odds with his promise to change Washington. Perhaps one insider but two out of the three, with the third due to her family name being an indirect insider. I can''t help but wonder what would be different in an Obama Administration when he starts off by turning to at least a few indivduals that probably from past experiences play in the very Washington that Obama wants to change.

I''m a democrat and want to see that his words are not just rehtoric. I guess time will tell.
