"Worse than that, Obama still remain his Muslim name. This leads me conclusion he was sympathetic to Muslim. Why did not he change American name?

Just what would you say is a American name.
Since everyone except Native Americans are descendants of immigrants, making your statement shear nonsense.

no matter who you choose for president the problem we face is needing to vote out every single incumbent in congress.these people are the ones who have miserably failed the citizens of this country and to vote them back again would be the absolute worse thing we could do.Forget voting the straight party ticket or NOTHING will change about how we are represented, NOTHING.They need to understand , you failed and it was your last chance.

Contrary to popular belief they do not speak for the entire black population.

Few black Americans know that it was Republicans who founded the Historically Black Colleges and Universities. Unknown also is the fact that Republican Senator Everett Dirksen from Illinois was key to the passage of civil rights legislation in 1957, 1960, 1964 and 1965. Not mentioned in recent media stories about extension of the 1965 Voting Rights Act is the fact that Dirksen wrote the language for the bill. Dirksen also crafted the language for the Civil Rights Act of 1968 which prohibited discrimination in housing. President Lyndon Johnson could not have achieved passage of civil rights legislation without the support of Republicans.

I know black Dems who are voting for Mccain. So what. Although 96 % of blacks are voting for Obama because he is black. Its like this those who are poor or on welfare really think Obama will give them a hand out so they can get more income and have no motivation to move up in society. Guess what you are what you are whoever gets in it will be no different for you.

I''m not racist against having a black, bi-racial prez. I thought it was awesome we had a bi-racial man running for president. I saw this as a way to bring the black and white communities closer and unified as americans. I would feel so much better if I had more answers as to Obamas past and the connections to individuals that others continue to bring up. It pisses me off that the color of a man would keep individuals from possibly voting for the right man to sit behind the desk in the oval office. I''m sick of racist mentality. However, I must ask this question. Am I being racist becuse I HATE radical Islamics? Amrica has many, many enimies in this world. I want black and whites to come together as one, as americans and then go after the nasty *** politicians for putting OUR country in the mess we''re in now. Think how strong our nation would be if we truly stood as one. We voters have trusted too many politicians that DO NOT have the american citizen best interest at heart. What ARE we americans going to do to get our country back where she belong?

Worse than that, Obama still remain his Muslim name. This leads me conclusion he was sympathetic to Muslim. Why did not he change American name?
