Obviouslly, Obama can''''t do no wrong, but what is wrong is the people who follow him like sheep. When he falls off the cliff, so will you, in case you don''''t know.

Again with the FEAR!? I don''t know that I''ve ever met a more cowardly person than you. Were you asleep when he was in Iraq, Afganistan, Isreal, Europe? Compared to what we have and the response McCain has gotten, I''d say Obama is MUCH more likely to find Allies and right now THAT is what the American Tax Payer NEED''S. In case you haven''t noticed our economy is in the tank, we have $4.00 Gas and the Lending Crisis isn''t even close to being over!! Maybe you are one of the Cultist, I don''t know, but anyone with a mind should be able to see we need to change our directions here!!

Why, because he so poor and struggles so??? What a bunch of crud. Let''''s just be honest here. Blacks are voting for him because he is black. They would be the first to admit it. Quite frankly, he is still a man and if a true change was needed, it would be to elect a woman and we had the best choice and we blew it.

I don''t suppose McCain want to continue the "Trickle Down" Economics has anything to do with it!? You people talk trash and it''s bigoted as it can get!! Blacks are intelligent people who vote for the Person who best represents what THEY find important. THEY happen to think all the jobs shipped to the Third World is a very BAD thing and McCain wants to continue to ship those jobs out. What Working Man, Black or otherwise, want''s that? NOTHING, in THREE decades has "Trickled Down" to them or anyone else. THAT''s why were dead last in the G-7 when it comes to the standard of LIVING!!

This guy may be young but he is Good, VERY good. Slowly he has done to McCain what he did to Hilary. He''s going to make a good President. Next to what we NOW, GREAT!

Obama has advantage amongst the working poor?" What kind of statement is that?? "Working poor?" How can you be "poor" if you are working?? How do you think Obama is going to help you? Take from the rich and give to you? Wake up, the rich aren''''t going to do it no matter what that chump says.

ubrew12 - interesting observation.

However, I don''t know that based on one stat (total income accruing to the wealthiest 1% of Americans) you can really make that strong of a correlation to the statements that followed...

Usually there are many factors involved in why a Depression happens or an economy is running strong.

However, if I were making minimum wage, and a politician claimed he/she would give me more benefits, I''d probably be more likely to vote for that politician.
