Hopetrumps,

I guess you would prefer to have the same illegal aliens driving without licenses or driver''s training further endangering the public.

Enough illegals have left the country since the government started cracking down that you should have no trouble getting one of those avacado picking jobs you''ve been dreaming about!

If you can''t find one in California I can tell you right where to apply in North Carolina because we now have worker shortages for vegatable harvesters, meat packers, housekeepers and scores of other low paying jobs that native citizens are too good to do.

akona2,

Obama wants to attack Al Quaeda in Pakastan and has called Afghanistan the real battlrfield in the war on terror. I guess he can go against his "Muslim brother" if the attack America, something Sadaam never did.

That''s why he opposed the diversion in Iraq; your statements are just ignorant drivel totally divorced from the facts.

Robert F. Kennedy once remarked:

"All of us, from the wealthiest and most powerful of men to the weakest and hungriest of children, share one precious possession: the name %u2018American.%u2019 It is not easy to know what that means. But in part to be an American means to have been an outcast and a stranger, to have come to the exiles'' country, and to know that he who denies the outcast and stranger among us at that moment also denies America."

During the debate Thursday night, Barack Obama echoed RFK when he said, to applause, that arguments about how the inner-city unemployment of blacks is related to the influx of immigration is a case of "scapegoating" immigrants.

Hillary, fresh from her campaign of racial coding in South Carolina, countered by claiming that voters needed to realize that immigrants do take the jobs of low-income Americans.

America is tired of the arrogance, corruption, doublespeak, and lack of that elusive thing called grace that characterized Bill Clinton''s "co-presidency" with Hillary.

Clean slate !!!
Barack Obama,
''08 !!!

Why would latinos vote for osama?
Mccain wants to give amnesty to ILLEGALs, of which there are over 20 million latino ILLEGALs in the U.S. and more coming every day.
Obama just wants to give ILLEGALs licenses, for now.
Huckaby is the only major candidate that will enfoce the law, and try to secure our boders.
NO AMNESTY
NO McCain
No Obama
NO AMNESTY

Obama now supports giving driver''s license to illegal aliens. In an earlier debate when Hillary supported similar purposal by New York governor Elliot Spitzer''s similar purposal, both Obama and Edwards jumped on her and critised her.
Flip flop and pandering to special interests is what Obama all about.

Hmmm - How does Obama represent all of the old-school divisions that have paralized Washington? I would argue that the Clintons, McCains, Bushs, etc. who have all been there dividing us for the past 20 years would be more representative of business as usual politics. Senator Obama brings a new approach that is focused on what we have in common, rather than what divides us whether it be red/blue, liberal/conservative, etc.
