I disagree with Obama's politics, but I will not fault him for seeking the Presidency. I don't think he is uppity. I don't think he has forgotten his place. For that matter, I DO think that America has evolved enough to elect a black man to our highest office.
Obama have a lot of the popular vote in the south, where Hillary is seen with distaste. I will see a surprise in the Democrats rank with Obama unless th denomination is stolen for Hillary.

And so, what if Obama selects Tom Kaine -- Gov. Virginia and x-military as his running mate?
. . what if Obama selects Tom Kaine - Gov. of Virginia and x-military as his running mate? I supported her [Hillary] a mere two weeks ago - I am feeling the pull of the Obama camp. He started talking specifics .... albeit he flubbed his discussion of a $4000 tax credit for college in exchange for public service .... it was a start.
He's got a good motivational presence - and it’s a stark stark difference when you see Obama tall and energetic standing amid throngs of people versus the same old pasty white guys krony-ing around McCain - with the same old rhetoric. McCain seems to have sold out to the RNC. He has none of the appeal in my eyes that he did just 8 years ago.
radicalisation is an effect, not the cause . . people who depend on the occasional burst of violence to keep the mainstream stunned will of course find substitutes for genuine, home-grown anarchist groups.
edit: case in point, there's a leaked police video, which clearly demonstrates that their objective is to enforce compliance, in this case driving the protesters off. may I ask, what are people supposed to do once they're living under military enforced curfew? roll over and hope for the best? that way I fear many people will die without as much as a peep.

You know I’ve warned NO politician can tell the TRUTH and ever be elected. It’s the nature of the game. But some lies are more hurtful than other lies.
