My pithy comment is that this survey neglects one important question. It does not ask “Do you care what religion Obama / Clinton /McCain is?

These people have really hurt me. They have agreed to cast off Black people to win. They want all of Barack’s new energy voters, but they won’t come out in November for Billary.

I still think Barack can win. People forget he is up in NC (112 delegates).

While I don’t think they should get a do-over, I think he does better in FL and Michigan that he would’ve in January.

Anonymous, you have lost your mind. The media??? Are you crazy?? The same media that destroyed Kerry will try to destroy Barack Obama or Clinton. It doesn’t matter which democratic candidate runs, the media will join forces with corporate power and their ass sucking rethug friends to destroy the candidate.

If you’re relying on the media to straighten this out, you are delusional. They will only make it worse.

As for Hillary not defending Obama from the Muslim smears on 60 minutes, well that just shows you how unworthy of our vote she is. As some have pointed out, she has been to prayer breakfasts with Obama. She could have used that cackle of hers for good for once, and just said something like “oh, it’s so silly…I’ve been to prayer breakfasts with Barack, and he has a strong Christian faith.”

There is no doubt that Hillary is indeed a destructive and divisive candidate, who is very bad for the party and the nation. Indeed, I fear that we could not tolerate another 4 years of partisan polarization, like we would have under Hillary.

Obama is clearly the way to go, and I do believe we will win. It will take a lot of hard work and faith, but we can do it!

I’m sorry that you lost your Dad.

Your comment highlights the reality of different experience of America depending on what race you are.

Hillary Clinton is a divisive and destructive force, as is her husband. Their presence inspires strife, separation, disgrace and insecurity. I am sure, if she steals this nomination unopposed, and if she becomes President(unlikely) – she will bring that destructive, non-productive, stife-filled spirit with her. And, it will become the tone of the entire country.

No amount of political power that can fix what is wrong with her “soul”.

I feel you. I too have Native American blood running through my veins. Choctaw! In College, took some History classes & I had a very hard time sitting there, listening to the brutality that happened to my ancestors! It was horrific! And now top that with black oppression that we’ve suffered too! And they wonder why blacks are angry!

[For starters]—apologize for this horrific trauma that have been inflicked upon America’s own people! Acknowledge the wrongness!

Christianity has injected itself into the business of the state for over 10 years, against the mission of the Constitution. What did we think Gay marriage or the anti-abortion movemement was really about? These are divisive beliefs that do not belong within the narrative of State.

Churches receive tax exempt status by refraining from Political endorsement. If the media does it’s job, perhaps it will question the involvement of the church in influencing social policy.

It seems our Obama embodies the spirit of Loki. His mere presence inspires change – whether we want it or not. He drags things into the open where we must face up to them. This is a terrifying but necessary thing.

My feelings are raw tonight…

I just went to my dad’s funeral….he was an 85 year old Native American who very much experienced racial bias.

I found it very interesting at my dad’s funeral that he was honored by a caucasian elderly contingent of men who probably fought my dad every step when my dad tried to earn a way to support his family.

To put things in perspective, America voted for George Bush TWICE! Yet, here they are demanding answers from Barack regarding his Pastor…demanding that he assume the position…demanding that he prostrate himself, prove himself. There is no one in America who dares question George Bush in this way as he acts with impunity.

It is said that nations receive the leaders they deserve. As the economy collapses, as Americans burn their foreclosed homes for the insurance, as Americans line up for charity health care, It remains to be seen whether America has “earned” Obama or Hillary, or McCain.

2. Since when did being of the Islamic Faith make you evil or the enemy? OH YEAH, it was the Media and the Bush Administration that sold American those bag FEAR and lies.

3. If being a Christian President is the norm, and Barak Obama is a “messenger” of CHANGE maybe him NOT being Christian or Jewish is a GOOD thing considering the Issues that this country is under.

4. All these statistic show are the percentage of people who do not READ and or lack the comprehension to want to know the TRUTH about Obama, an inherent prejudice that they are willing to live with and most likely would not vote for Obama anyway.

5. GUESS WHAT .. there is something called the separation of CHURCH AND STATE. For me, anyone Champion their FAITH before the ISSUES and we go right back to what we currently have in Office.

Lastly … If Obama says he is Christian when asked .. then CASE CLOSED. Then again, the Church he belongs to (TRINITY) is a bit SUSPECT. Since “Perception is Reality” most Christian Americans will say .. that’s not the type of Christian Church I recognized. Jews will then see that that Church is friendly to Farrakhan and that too will be an issue. That will and is Obama’s problem, no different than how Americans over analyzed the Mormon Church with Romney.

Personally I don’t care what his RELIGION IS, as long as he knows how to seperate CHURCH from STATE in his Presidency.

My fear has been that there is a message to Senator Obama to show white people how deferential he is.

I agree anonymous….

Hillary to Obama:
“shame on you, Barack Obama!”

Ferraro to Diane Sawyer:
“I’m hurt, absolutely hurt by how they’ve taken this thing and spun it to imply..” (distress call to white males)

Ferraro to David Axelrod:
“If Barack Obama is the candidate he shouldn’t really antagonize people like me because he’s going to come to me and ask me to raise money for Barack Obama..”

Clinton Campaign:
He hasn’t passed the commander in chief threshold
He hasn’t passed the national security test
etc etc..
(She subjects him to tests which he consistently fails according to her benchmarks)

Hillary plays “which one of these things is not like the other” by saying she and McCain are qualified and Obama is not…by suggesting she’s a workhorse an he’s a showhorse…by saying he was “missing in action” or in other words, a deserter and absentee father.

A vote for Hillary is the equivalent of uttering this evilness one’s personal self.

@Angela, ooo, that’s gonna be good. Too bad I don’t have cable. Wonder if Keith is gonna bulldog him to make up for his Special Commentary, though? Oh well, whatever happens, I think Obama can handle it.
