Obama should be lucky his arse is still upright and breathing. To me the surprise is that he is still alive. I was sure that some good-ol-boy would have ascended and collected his halo by now. I hope Mr Obama doesn't win. Nothing personal, but rest assured if he wins some knuckle dragging ape will cement his name in history and kill him.
Then all hell breaks loose. Blacks will go ape sh*t "rightfully so." but take it out on all the wrong people. I hope i'm wrong, but if i'm not you better be prepared.

Greetings.....Excellent point....All one has to do is look into the events of our civil war and the level of brutality displayed...Let us not forget for the most part the civil war was brother against brother and the color of the skin of the vast majority was white...There also was a considerable interest in the outcome on the behalf foreigners,however,we did scare the crap out of them when they saw the level of brutality....

It's simply Fear of the 'unknown'.
Throughout history mankind has always feared that which he doesn't know.
Regardless of who is elected in the end, I believe they'll live a life of paranoia and sleepless nights from here forward.

Our best candidates never wanted to rule 'this' term and for good reason.

Good 'luck' to our next President, whomever it is; he's gonna need it!

I believe there's a good 'reason' why Hillary is still so involved. We shall see how this plays out. Meanwhile, put down the popcorn and look for your 'farm' gloves. You're going to need them in the near future.

Greetings Douggie......I can appreciate your passion,however,it is wise man who steps back and abandons all partisin emotions....The simple fact is they are both liars and we are charged with the responsibility to chose which liar will do the least damage.....It is unfortunate for the american people,but ,this situation is of their own making....The people we choose to lead us are a reflection of who we are....Any more money in this education system is a waste of money....The US ranks #48 on a global scale for quality of education....

If ignorance is bliss, then we all live in the land of Bliss. It is overwhelmingly amazing how the many can know so little. I am a human being first and a party affiliate last. Unfortunately, most of the masses will vote on emotion and not on fact because the mass media will no longer give us the facts. This is the result, ignorance, arrogance, stupidity, ennui and hatred. I bet if someone had asked any one of those people where the got their information about the candidate, they would proboably respond with one of the big 5 ABC,NBC,CBS,FOX,MSNBC. When we wonder why the Chinese leaders will not let the people govern themselves, all they have to do is point at videos of Americans in situations like this and go, "That's Why."

Greetings.....To use the chinese as an example is fitting because'they are governed by communist principle and the government has confiscatory privledge as it sees fit....The american people are not interested in thee truth,they are content to listen to the medias truth as long as it is what they want to hear...They are not interested in the character of the candidates just in what they say and what is in it for them....Most americans do not realize that government has no money..it takes the money of productive members of the business community and society and gives it to non productive members in the form of entitlements....The only thing this government owes us is the protection of our rights to life,liberty and my pursuit of happiness....

Wow, this is very...well... What a bunch of #ing rednecks. They don't actually have any legitimate things to say.

I've never seen a Canadian election this spirited before. It's kind of a culture shock for me. Does this happen every presidential election? Or is it only because Obama is the first black presidential candidate?

All parties benefit from ignorant followers, get over your democrats are smarter attitude and you will begin to see the light folks. Does anyone really think that socialism doesn't represent an ignorance of human history? One persons ignorance maybe another ones genius. But for technical matters these are just belief systems and can be thwarted and controlled by despotic types like governments to force people to fit a mold, which of course also makes more ignorance and more support for the structure no matter who wins, it appears all about increasing the distance between the dominators and the dominated.

Crowds always bring forth insane groups, all crowds are irrational even democratic ones too, for all we know those chants could be phony democrats posing as conservatives too, agent provoctuers. If it can be done to measly anarchists then why wouldn't the major parties do it as well? Don't fall for all this fevered race baiting and racism talk, it was probably all orchestrated and planned from the getgo to infiltrate the John McCain candidacy, the same with Obama rallys as well, why are people being fooled by this stuff while the criminals write themselves 700 billion dollar boodogles and martial law economics plans, please people get our priorites straight.

I cannot believe what I just saw! It is unreal that people could actually still be like that in this day and age.

Racists and bigots and hatred. Oh my!
