saved9201, Let me first say that I believe you are a very entertaining and a little off beat. I still haven't quite figured whee you really stand on the presidential election. Secondly I believe the conclusions you have drawn are a bit extreme. To some extent I do not blame you for drawing such conclusions. Yes, it may sound like concerned voters, largely on the right, are very fearful of this man. We are. But one needs to ask themselves why that may be. This election process, by some estimates, has been going on for nearly two years, but yet we do not feel that we have any real idea who Obama is, and how he thinks. What we do know, or can drawn conclusions on, about him seems to make it clear to us that he, despite all his fancy talk, is not the right man to be in the Oval Office at this time, or any time. What do we really know about Obama. 1. He's multi-racial , multi-cultural, multi-ethnic. multi-religious. 2. He is a product of the Chicago/ Illinois political machine. 3. He is an educated, fancy talker who knows how to say alot but disclose very little. This tends to explain how it is that he seems to have a knack to attract the right kind of help/ support (political, monetary, idealistic/ charismatic) he has been getting from his party, the media, and people. 4. He is for change, hope, and pulling the bulk of our military from Iraq no matter what. However, he rarely is in any way specific about this hope and change that he feels that this country is so badly in need of. 5. His rather short legislative history shows that his votes are either far left, or non commital. They also show that he rarely, if ever reaches across the political aisle on anything. 6. His associations (thus his political thinking, ideals, and such) tend to be/ seem to be solely made of persons on the far left. 7. He seems to have a very arrogant and disturbing way of handling criticism of any kind-the "race card", limiting discussions as to what he will/ will not talk about, creating web-sites to "debunk" comments and conclusions made about him, his family, his friends/ssociates, and what he/ his family/ his associates have accidentally said. I probably could go on, but these are the concerns that immediately come to mind in regard to Obama. In short it would appear that Obama's views and philosophy is rather limited, and that is not what we need. That is not what the world needs at this critical juncture of time in which the main focus seems to be "globalization" of mankind in many ares of life. This election is very important. America (IMO) is slowly waking up to the fact that the future is not as bright as we would like it to be either for us, or the rest of the world. Third world countries, that we have helped grow and develop, are growing a developing faster than we are, thus createing un-imaginable challenges for us as more countries stive to consume and exploit the world's resources. At the same time people are, in some cases, responding to all this change and development in violent ways (terrorism) because they question the moral impact all this growth and development is having on our cultural and religious values.
