That, and it would mean having another man with the right to be addressed as "Mr President" at every White House event. Fuck that. It would turn the White House into a triumvirate, with "black guys named Obama" in the minority on every decision.

I don't think Bill would be a problem. Hillary is as much her own person as Bill, she won't tolerate Bill second guessing her dealings with Obama or stealing her limelight. Hillary will make sure Bill becomes the traditional presidential spouse. If Obama gets Hillary on his ticket, I'm sure he will also remind Hillary to rein in Bill.

The only practical problem I see is that Bill will have access to wide-eye interns, AGAIN.

The polling will often never take into account rural blacks. I'm really hoping people are going to get them registered to vote. It could deff swing the election since America has such terrible voter turn out.

I just don't think the world can handle another 4 years in this direction. Come on America.

Pretty sure its still safe to discount most polls, Obama always outperforms them anyway, and with the number of new voters he's pulling in I think its just one of those wait and see thingos

I think people are getting a bit tired of the "Obama is awesome", "McCain is shit and I cant believe he said *insert crap here*" ALL OVER the fucking internet. I know Obama is using the internet as part of his campaign but tbh I am getting irritated at the amount of crap stories about these subjects.

America does the opposite of what the people "pretend" they want, they go to war and profess they never wanted to, they vote in Bush again when they publicly state he is an idiot. What they say and what they do are very different things. Obama may not win this one, I think America doesn't do change very well and will stick with the white old guy and what they know.

Change is a great slogan but it is an ideal

I think only the deluded would believe he's an absolute change from the status quo. But to be honest, he's about the best anyone could realistically hope for.

Young (compared to the old white mens club that's the presidency), black, anti lobbying, INTELLIGENT and inspiring.

He's still an American presidential candidate, which means he can't be that great. He still has to uphold 'christian values' to have any chance of getting elected.

He had the funniest line in the democratic nominating campaign "Rudy Giuliani, there's only three things he mentions in a sentence — a noun and a verb and 9/11 "

He's gonna make a great attack dog for Obama, hopefully McCain chooses Mitt Romney as his VP, Biden will tear him to shreds.

With Obama and McCain neck and neck in the polls, the election is likely to get personal. Republican activists are already mooting “Obama Bin Biden” bumper stickers.

Interesting article about Biden over at News.com: Joe Biden's pro-RIAA, pro-FBI tech voting record

4 white supremacists with high powered scoped rifles have been arrested after plotting Obamas assasination.
Just because the guy is black, if you try and kill him your a white supremacist, damn reverse racism

Why would I want to? I simply don't care. I just like to make fun of your failed attempt at humour. You're like someone trying to emulate Mike King trying to emulate Chris Rock trying to emulate Eddie Murphy.

Please put more effort into your stinging rebukes so that they may reach the level of... you know... stinging. At the moment, your comebacks are more like a soggy bun.
