- jack3213,
Ok, some specifics. How much does John McCain figure a 100 year occupation of Iraq is going to cost us? Please tell us where he''s been specific on this. - Reply to this comment
- "There are three classes of men; lovers of wisdom, lovers of honor, and lovers of gain."
Obama: lover of wisdom
McCain: lover of honor
Clinton: lover of gain
Obama appears to have greater appeal to highly educated Americans. WHY?
Highly educated people are those who have acquired imparting of knowledge, positive judgment and well-developed WISDOM - consisting of ideals and principles that govern all actions and decisions to maximize the LONG-TERM COMMON GOOD, and so are the highly educated Americans.
It is for LONG-TERM COMMON GOOD we EDUCATE our YOUTH, and so be it that the highly educated seek PURPOSE in LONG-TERM COMMON GOOD. This is called COMMON SENSE.
So be it that the highly educated seek WISDOM and its TRUTH in their choice of a president!
If you seek not WISDOM in a leader, what then, do you seek? If you hold not TRUTH, FAITHFULNESS, and SINCERITY as your first principles, what then, do you hold?
If you are a parent, an educator, or a community leader, and if you seek not such LONG-TERM COMMON GOOD WISDOM, you care not about the children, family, community, society, country, or THE COMMON WORLD. How can we let our children follow such self-gratifying Clintons??
"LIVE THE CHANGE YOU WANT TO SEE IN THE WORLD."
This is what the highly educated are going for. - Reply to this comment

- Americans everywhere are falling victim to a very clever crime. The crime is liable, or slander, dependent upon whether it is verbal, or in print, but what is important is that we understand how easy it is to perpetrate on us. It is nothing new; as a matter of fact it was used by the high priests, when their political influence was threatened by the preaching of our Lord Jesus, to have Him arrested! The modern day term for it is "smear campaign." Another name for it is "mud slinging" - quite appropriate, as the cleverness of the scheme lies in the fact that it is easier and faster for one the throw mud than it is for the person it is thrown at to clean it off. While the person hit with the mud is working at cleaning it up, at least someone will see them as "dirty." How this is accomplished in our times of mass communication is simple. Anyone, assuming they lack values or ethics, can make up a statement about another person and send it to us as an email. Isn''t it at least likely that the authentic news services (such as CNN, ABC news, NPR, etc.), would go on (and on, and on,) about any sensational or negative tidbit concerning our public figures, if there was a grain of truth to it? You "Ombama is a Muslim" people are being used by someone evil!

- Barack HUSSEIM Obama might be against the War because he was born a MUSLIM. Don''t be fooled with that, America!!!

- McCain offers more Fear, War and Debt.
The Clintons offer their own special brand of accomplished insincerity and special interest fluffing.
McCain and the Clintons are seamless continuation of the best government special interests money can buy. - Reply to this comment
- McCain WILL beat Obama or Clinton. Obama & Clinton have no experiance, are as phoney as all celebriies and all they do is make grand promises of change and illusions of big dreams that they think will make everyone happy. WRONG. Deal with what the issues are, stop hiding behind rose colored glasses for once. Be adult and be responsible for yourself. Obama or Clinton will not hold your hand, but raise taxes and make enormous mistakes. We don''''t need more mistakes, we need to finish the war correctly, we need not have our taxes raised, and we do not need socialism in this country. WAKE UP.

- In reading a ABC New blog in Texas, I noticed posts not praising HIllary were being deleted.
I posted, "shame on you ABC news. you''re showing your bias by deleting comments you don''t like. you do us all proud. keep up the good work"
My comment stayed on the blog for may one minute and then was deleted. - Reply to this comment
- How to split the "superdelegates" "fairly", and still allow some of them to both endorse AND vote for their selected candidates?
Not complicated math.
All the states are proportional, so even in states Clinton won, unless TOO MANY superdelegates want to support Obama, just let the undecided ones go with Clinton until the ratios are right. That way Kennedy CAN vote for Obama at the Primary, who he has endorsed, AND Clinton "gets her share". That way it is still fair, the public is NOT overruled by the Superdelegates, and there is NO ISSUE! - Reply to this comment
- Hope, my friends, is a powerful thing. I can attest to that better than many, for I have seen men''s hopes tested in hard and cruel ways that few will ever experience,%u201D he said, continuing, however, that %u201Cto encourage a country with only rhetoric rather than sound and proven ideas that trust in the strength and courage of free people is not a promise of hope. It is a platitude.%u201D
After being part of a party whose "sound a proven ideas" have netted us failed wars, International turmoil and devastating debt--THAT is not the type of remarks McCain should even attempt--because when held to the light--all the ugliness of it all shows. - Reply to this comment
- We%u2019re going to sweep across Texas in the next three weeks, bringing our message about what we need in America: The kind of president that will be required on day one to be commander in chief, to turn the economy around,%u201D Clinton told a crowd of thousands in El Paso Thursday night. %u201CI%u2019m tested. I%u2019m ready. Let%u2019s make this happen."
Hilary: "yeah, I''m tested and I''m ready!! so what if I can''t manage my campaign and my core group is splintering...so what if I can''t manage the campaign money and have to lend myself millions to survive one month? I SWEAR I''ll do better, when it''s the entire country and YOUR money, I get to manage--honest"
You have a point Hilary. Bush had ''experience'' and it showed he ran all businesses he owned into the ground and had to be bailed out (then he did it on the macro scale with the country) now you are showing that with your experience--you can''t call a war right, don''t know how to back off of torture, can''t release your finances and can''t even run or direct a Presidential campaign. We gave Bush a shot--why not you?
Why not, indeed. - Reply to this comment
