For us at anytime to imagine ANY politician is unfettered or not influenced by the system, is to live in ignorance...

I wanted to believe Obama was decent, but I figured that he, and Hillary, and everybody else (save for our boy Ron Paul) were all part of it. If, indeed, Obama was chosen a while ago, what is their intention by putting him on the front lines (so the bottom of the heirarchy of elites)?

I think NWO is pushing and planning for Obama because they think he can unite the Middle East (ME Union) under the guise of Islam.
Their ulitmate goal is to defeat China (check out Obama's lead foreign campaign advisor who authored the book "The Grand Chessboard"). China must not control the ME or Africa to do so.
Either way, these men are very greedy and Obama is the puppet catoring to their whims. He may side with the Muslims should the political winds change.

And I'm still wondering if they're not using Obama to make sure McCain gets in. These guys play both sides all the time.

Mitt Romney: "I go in their primary, just like a lot of other folks, and voted against the person who I thought was the strongest Democrat.
Now, that happens in America today, but let me tell you, in the general election, I don't recall ever once voting for anyone other than a Republican."
"If they are Republicans and independents who are working with me, that makes us stronger." Senator Obama
.. Having a sincere preference for one party’s candidate in the general election, “raiders” may enter the opposing party’s primary to vote for a weaker candidate to face their preferred choice in the fall (Chen and Yang 2002, Cherry and Kroll 2003).
Strategic voting in this sense has two steps: the decision to vote in the primary of the party opposing their preferred general election candidate (here, crossover voting), and the decision to vote for the least electable candidate in this primary.

Obama's quick rise in national politics has been assisted by massive, mostly favorable coverage since the summer of 2004... ...Obama ...his favorable treatment came from influential media.

Well it turns out that this same Frank Pearl of Washington DC took a liking to Illinois Senator Barack Obama back in 2003. Here's is the pdf from the FEC database/ Look at letter B on the form. Frank Pearl, Washington, D.C:
I'm not sure what this all means except for one thing.
Obama is full of $($# when he blathers on about how he's not part of the Washington D.C status quo. It's the Washington D.C. elite that have put him where he's at right now.
I'm just not sure at this point if it's for Obama to win to election, or to make sure McCain will win the election.
uhm... He's a citizen of this country... He's allowed to donate to any campaign he wants... Plus... $2,300 is the maximum donation for a senatorial campaign. He didn't give the maximum.

a private citizen donating less than half of the maximum contribution is not proof that the candidate is being manipulated by that citizen. If you knew anything about how the political system works, (which I should... I've been working on campaigns for 4 years now) you would know that the people who want to buy your sway... Don't pay minimum dollar. They also don't always get what they want.
Contributions don't require a response that favors the contributer. If you have some evidence of this (not 'six degrees of kevin bacon' either please!)
please post it, as some of us would really like to see some proof of all of your slanderous/liable accusations against this candidate.
I don't understand why you haven't provided any substantial evidence... yet you continue to try and down those of us who support Barack Obama for pointing this out for you. Just because you've found a trolling loophole, doesn't give you the right to constantly use it.

Do you believe that? You can't be serious. Why do you think he went back on his word and signature in agreeing to Public Funding?
After huge donations from Liberal Hollywood and Investement/Energy Banking CEOs, I guess the public system is broken afterall.
