This is NOT TRUE. It was debunked in THIS post on page 2 of this thread. Do you understand? He DIDN'T SAY it.
My job is to be so persuasive that if there’s anybody left out there who is still not sure whether they will vote, or is still not clear who they will vote for, that a light will shine through that window, a beam of light will come down upon you, you will experience an epiphany … and you will suddenly realize that you must go to the polls and vote for Obama, the Democrat said in Hanover.
After those 2 I stopped reading. You have LOST ALL credibility with me. You actually lost it a long time ago, but I try to give people a second and third chance. But you have totally blown your credibility with me.

By the way, if your so smart, did you know that a majority of our presidents since the establishment of the united states have all been related by BLOOD?

i hate how people come in this thread and just spout off a bunch of biased bull crap thinking obama is even a hair diffrent than the rest of the corperate clowns we have as president.
he is the same damn thing, to every last detail. there is no change. there is no hope.
and for the 5,345,436,363 time I HATE GEORGE BUSH!!! and i agree with you every election nothing happens any diffrent. and yes i do think our constitution means something, and if you dont think it does get the %$#% out of my country! the sad thing is neither barak or mccain is eligible by the constitution to be president, but it just shows how the corporate elite show utter contempt for the people of this nation.
the purpose of this thread was never to build up the republicans or mccain or bush. the republicans are sell outs. the purpose of this thread is to show people barak is no new messiah. he is the same old damn same old. he is a corporate canidate clown who hates our country (just like mccain) if you follow him blindly you will take this whole country to hell.
i ask people to use logic and reason in this thread and all i get is emotion driven bull crap thrown at me....do some research!
your savior is just as crappy as the rest of them!

Uh, he actually did. There are at least 7 credible sources that heard him say it. Do you want me to post all of them?

In fact, the CNN article notes it was REMOVED from the transcript of his speech. Thats a lot of sources for something he didn't say.

To be perfectly honest, I could care less. My mom always told me, "consider the source".

He is doing a great job.
Now, in the last day here, Dave only has one thing on his mind. He wakes up with this thought, he goes to sleep with this thought, he eats and lives and breathes and dreams about getting you to the polls tomorrow. That's all he is thinking about.
More specifically, getting you to the polls to vote for me. That's what he's thinking about.
(APPLAUSE)
That's his job, get you to the polls, vote for Obama. My job is to help him do his job. So I am going to try to be so persuasive in the 20 minutes or so that I speak that by the time this is over, a light will shine down from somewhere.
It will light upon you. You will experience an epiphany. And you will say to yourself, I have to vote for Barack. I have to do it.
And if you make that decision, if that moment happens, then it would be great -- even though it's just one day to go -- for you to fill out one of these supporter cards before you leave, because that way we'll know, you know, who, in fact, is going to be voting. Make sure that you are getting to the right precinct. It will be very heful to Dave in doing his job.
Many of them mis-quoted the original text, and now it's been twisted around.
Sorry, I don't buy it. Looks more like some in the media trying to cover for Obama. I seriously doubt so many sources would quote him saying it, if it never happened.
Barack Obama, 7 January 2008

For the record, i'm not a obama supporter, I just hate seeing so much false accusations thrown at someone thats not here to speak for himself. Get your facts straight or stop spreading false propaganda.

If it were just that one quote , you might have a point. However there are dozens and dozens of media and supporter quotes that imply they think hes not human. I mean, what other presidential candidate has the media calling for his speeches to be added to the bible?
EDIT: Also, that CNN article is the edited version (I posted the original too). The original had the correct quote. Like I said, its just the media attempting to cover for him. Its called, "Plausible Deniability".

But he keeps getting criticized for being 'too liberal' yet he's the same damn thing? More hypocrisy, you clearly have another agenda since you provide very little substance to your ranting.
Both Barack and McCain are fully eligible.
