What unseen foe? What facts are missing? Are you talking about the NWO? If so, you should realize that there are a lot of facts on the subject.

I'm an Obama supporter but I'm not going to go all "OMG OMG Obama won America is great again" like all the other people in the thread here yet. I'm going to keep an eye on him and see what he does and see if there is any connection to what he does and what the NWO wants.

But, I'm remaining optimistic.

Ok, after coming back inside after screaming at the top of my lungs I've read through every thing. Amazing some people can be such party poopers. As pointed when McCain mentioned Obama's name people booed, when Obama mentions McCain people clapped and cheered a little. Classy if you ask me. Just like John McCain. He ignores the months of negative ads attacking Obama and speaks from the heart. He wants what is best for this nation and is ready to follow Obama and make sure he sticks to his word to change and help America. Does no one else realize how amazing this is? In Africa they have military coups for less than this. In South East Asia the military is ordered to slaughter the people who support the other guy. In our own past Obama would have been killed for being uppity and McCain would have been dead due to illness and old age. But today, tonight, we had a historic moment. A black man looked at the ballot and saw his name under President. AMericans across the country looked at a ballot and saw an black man's name. And on the other side people looked down and saw a man who nearly died for his country. Dwight D. Eisenhower fought for America. McCain fought for America. But Ike never had to deal with being tortured by the enemy. McCain was in a cage maybe even begging for death. But earlier today he came within a few electoral votes from being President. He looked down at a ballot and saw John McCain under the choice for President. Would any of us, locked in a cage with brutal injuries and being tortured believe one day we could look down at a ballot and see our name for President? I wrote Ron Paul in but damn it McCain and Obama have been part of a historical election and one achieved a dream and one came close. And the loser did not call for recounts, election fraud, or like some countries revenge. No he tried to rally his followers behind the winner so we migh be able to help America, unite it. He went out, conceded the race, congratulated the man who was his bitter enemy for months, and declared he would serve under this new President as best he could to make sure America was helped and not harmed by this new President.

You would be surprised at how many racist people are still left here in the country.

I would keep my eye out on which states Obama visits during his Presidency. I bet he'll try to avoid the more racist states. If times haven't really changed there will be racist people out there, or, people like those John McCain supporters who disagree with his policies (a heck of a lot), that will want to kill him.

The government hasn't been uprooted.

The real government, the Bureaucrats who have been working in various agencies and departments for the last 20-30 years, especially the military are not going anywhere. Some of those guys at the Pentagon and the military industries they deal with have watched presidents come and go for the last 40 years.

They'll all still be there when Obama leaves and another takes office.

A lot of people in the DOD are conservatives.

There are plenty of people in the government saying that this is just the beginning of socialism in the USA and the death of the nation.

I'm sure there are going to be SOME people that want to shut him down for spreading the truth about the middle class of America and how the rich are just getting an easy ride.

I agree with what you just said to a degree. But if Americans truly had attention deficit disorder then Obama wouldn't have gotten elected in the first place. People are so desparate for a restoration of hope in American politics (not to mention hope for ourselves and our kids given the economic situation). And that restoration of hope requires sweeping change from what has become the norm under the Bush administration. The entire issue of change as a slogan is behind us.. Now is the time for that change to start becoming reality..

My only concern is that so much has been promised and the promises of change from Obama are a little more complicated than flipping a switch in the oval office and making things from bad to good. There will inevitably be change.. the only question is how much and how many people are against it because of what it implies. Every legislation involving change is fought by one party or another... That's just how it works. Obama will inevitably be criticized and blamed.. That's part of what a President does.

What I want to see is how Obama can do everything he wants to do without making the situation worse for the average American. We need to be willing to give him a chance to make things better for ourselves and our kids.

Pathetic.

Not a one liner.

Again, kudos to America for picking Obama over another war monger and a lady who can see Russia from her house.
