Who would be telling her what to do, McCain?

So then what happens when he doesn't survive the 4 years in office (due to illness, dementia, senility, retirement, whatever) ?

A Vice President is supposed to know what to do. Not just mimic the top job and attend only the boring peace talks, easy to solve diplomatic problems, etc.

Yeah, the rich white guy will die and SHE will decide to put troops on our southern border to protect it.  Just maybe SHE will decide to go on TV and promote English as the official language.  Maybe SHE, will decide to cut military spending and bring the troops home.

But yeah, a rich white guy whose father was is politics, banking, and the oil industry wouldn't be caught dead wearing a tee shirt that showed he had a since of humor.

I heard Liberman and Romney were his first and his second choice and that his campaign pressured him into picking Palin. Maverick.

What really cracks me up is you think Obama isn't rich, that he is actually one of you and didn't get power and money the same way all the other "evil rich" did.

I haven't had time to form much of an opinion on this matter, but with every year, I can draw more comparisons between media critics and political commentary. Professional or amateur, neither really seem to have the guts (with a few exceptions) to actually try their hands at the jobs they accuse others of doing a piss-poor job of.

Looks to me like they are both appeasing the rich.  I would tax the top much more and start a new tax on corporate interest income to pay down the national debt.

Who ever said that?

Of course you need money to make it in politics. Along with a College\University\Business background.

It's not like your typical unwashed masses persona can become Presidential candidate, lowing.

Our founding fathers did a good job, many were pretty uneducated.  It is amazing what values, common sense, and pride can accomplish when it comes to leading and making good decisions (which last I knew was what the President did )

I don't for a second believe he isn't rich, nor do I think rich people are all evil.

Rich people can vote too. My point is at least he's making some kind of effort towards helping out people on lower income, and whilst still not being stupid enough (like McCain) to believe that he can simply tax everyone less and it will be all fine and dandy. I like your idea, but it's probably a bit of a big step to make and still manage to get elected.

Perhaps that is what McCain said about O'bamas tax proposal.

Obviously it does, all you need is Oprah to endorse you.

How do you think Obama became rich? Is there any chance that he became so through the dealings and "at the expense of the poor" like all the other rich people you so despise?

Like dealings with people like ohhhhhhhhh i dunna Tony Rezko

Before his election as President, Lincoln was a lawyer, an Illinois state legislator, a member of the United States House of Representatives, and an unsuccessful candidate for election to the Senate.

And Washington only got the gig cause he led the continental army.

All presidents since the Civil War have been nominees of one of the two major political parties.

90% and she came into office on the trail of one of the most despised governors in the country.  Its not going to take much for her to get a high approval rating as long as she doesnt fuck it up.

Hey lowing, do you have any idea on what surplus of wealth Oprah is sitting on?

Maybe she is more qualified to tell you who to vote for, since she has more money than you do.

She should get a dark tan and run as a black person like O'bama is.  The she would get a pass by everyone.

I have no idea how much she has, probably just as much if not morethan EVERY OTHER RICH celebrity who lives in fantasyland and tries to tell me who to vote for, who t osave, who to give money to, which animals to protect, what to drive, what to eat, and basicall how to live.

Almost as bad as Al Gore doing all of these things yet does not practice it himself. Let me guess you love Al Gore to dontcha?

Perhaps, but at least she is down to earth enough to know if it ain't broke, don't fix it. Besides, if she lives in Alaska I bet the bitch has snowmobiles. That should count for something.
