I do have to say that when I first saw the name Biden, I immediately thought Bin Laden. I'm sure everyone is familiar with the brain's ability to read anything as long as the first and last letters are correct. I feel this could work against Obama in the voting, due to peoples subconscious

Ya know, I was rereading a few of the posts here about what was said by Obama about Biden being the next president. I then went back and watched the video. He actualy does say that. This triggered a thought about wheather or not the law suit over his true citizenship is going to change the actual candidate in the near future. Obama might know that the suit is not frivolous and has merit. But then again, wouldn't the Klinton Machine have put her in the position to be the stand in? Makes me, and I hope you, question if this wasn't planned and not a slip of the tounge!!

This kinda derailing tactic is old and it is becoming a serious nuisance.

ahh....what an interesting perspective. and one that would be quite a large task to determine. this might be an actual conspiracy.

it is a good thing that people on a conspiracy website choose to talk about such things, instead of ignoring them. better to deal with what is in front of you I say.

It's not a conspiracy, it's a tactic that employs what ad companies do in relation to how they use psychology to make the most effective ads. The ad doesn't have to be professional, it just has to be there. If people see it, you've done your job.

Thew fact that most now hate the government tells me that they will subconsciously vote for the enemy. My guess is all.

No it's not. To prove my point:

I did an experiment 3 days ago, and wrote "OBAMA BIDEN" of a piece of paper and showed it to seven people. They all said the same thing, Osama Bin Laden.

And that was here in Australia...

I believe most people are intelligent enough to understand the difference and should not have any issues equating similar sounding names to people we don't like. That does not mean that they will distingish the difference - there are many examples of the media messing with Obama's name. I find it sad and pathetic in terms of real dialogue and it only serves the premise that most people are simply not willing to think hard enough about what REALLY affects them.

my two cents
