Right now in the elections Clinton has also won the non-primary votes as well but still Obama has got three more votes.

If a black president is elected to office, do you think there are going to be racial fights and people are going to be pissed off?

I dislike racial people but there are a lot out there (both black AND white)

Who knows whats going to happen with the first black president? This is a fact that we may have a racial issue on our hands.

So far it looks like he is going to be elected and may God be with him. Who knows, like Martin Luther King got assassinated (and a very great loss to this country and the world) there might be attempts on his life.

Does any one care to comment?

Obama is the man but I hope he is bullet proof.
He is the best choice we have had in decades but Im sure someone will soon kill him if he gets in.
as for running a Government, color makes no difference because congress and the house still have to aprove anything he does.

no matter who gets in, I just wish they would run honestly,, tell us how they plan on paying for all that they say they are going to do.
we are going to be taxed to death!

Canadians help us out here.... how much of yur paycheck goes twords you universal healthcare? just so we know what to expect.

anywho.. Obama has my vote

I find it interesting that most think a Democrat president is a foregone conclusion.

Sorry, the fact is - they are all politicians and I have not heard a single real stand yet as to why any of them should be president. I could care less about color or religion if they were really willing to say what they believe and take the hits for it. I may not have agreed with everything he said or did, but Jesse Ventura did exactly what he said he would do in Minnesota and then left office.

This is my opinion and my opinion only, but IF Obama became president then I do believe he would be assassinated because of his Muslim ties. There are those out there who believe he could be an Al-Qada plant and would kill him for that belief, to be honest I don't think he is, but I also do not think he is right for president. Another theory is that if Hilary Clinton ran as his vice president she'd probably get someone to assassinate him so she could assume presidency, but this is what I'm hearing and reading, which who knows what is true anymore with any of the candidates, you just have to pick the right one that has your issues at heart and for many of you who this opinion may offend or disagree with I hope Mitt Romney wins. Why? He can get us out of debt, he can control the border to keep the illegals out, and he will not make healthcare universal, I'm sorry I can't agree on universal healthcare, just ask Canada and other countries, it's not working what would make it any different here? Some people in those countries probably like it, but a lot of them don't. I know that universal healthcare would help people, but in fact it would only be hurting us and putting us into more debt. Again, this is my opinion, so please don't bash me because I don't agree with you, since I don't bash you. I respect that we all have different choices and we should or else life would be boring, besides I have the right to use my first amendment as do you, so if you disagree or agree that's fine, I live my life the way I think I should not as a "yes" woman.

I think all the front runners are a joke! I don't like Mitt Romney...just another businessman in the office (can't relate to the little guy, just the big boys) although I like his position on no amnesty. Mc Caine, Obama and Clinton cater to illegals so I think they stink too!.. This country is doomed!!!



As far as assination attempts by a Vice president...I find it peculiar that Reagan was targeted for an assasination after 69 days in office and John Hinckleys family were intimate friends with some of the Bush family....lmao





Bush Son Had Dinner Plans With Hinckley Brother Before Shooting
The Associated Press Domestic News
March 31, 1981, Tuesday, PM cycle



John Hinckley
HOUSTON
The family of the man charged with trying to assassinate President Reagan is acquainted with the family of Vice President George Bush and had made large contributions to his political campaign, the Houston Post reported today.



Scott Hinckley, brother of John W. Hinckley Jr., who allegedly shot Reagan, was to have dined tonight in Denver at the home of Neil Bush, one of the vice president's sons.



Neil Bush

The newspaper said in a copyright story, Scott Hinckley, brother of John W. Hinckley Jr., who allegedly shot Reagan, was to have dined tonight in Denver at the home of Neil Bush, one of the vice president's sons.
The newspaper said it was unable to reach Scott Hinckley, vice president of his father's Denver-based firm, Vanderbilt Energy Corp., for comment. Neil Bush lives in Denver, where he works for Standard Oil Co. of Indiana.

In 1978, Neil served as campaign manager for his brother, George W. Bush, the vice president's oldest son, who made an unsuccessful bid for Congress. Neil lived in Lubbock throughout much of 1978, where John Hinckley lived from 1974 through 1980.

On Monday, Neil Bush said he did not know if he had ever met 25-year-old John Hinckley.



From what I know and I've heard, they (the Hinckleys) are a very nice family and have given a lot of money to the Bush campaign."
SHARON BUSH


"I have no idea," he said. "I don't recognize any pictures of him. I just wish I could see a better picture of him.

Sharon Bush, Neil's wife, said Scott Hinckley was coming to their house as a date of a girl friend of hers. "I don't even know the brother. From what I know and I've heard, they (the Hinckleys) are a very nice family and have given a lot of money to the Bush campaign. I understand he was just the renegade brother in the family. They must feel awful," she said.

The dinner was canceled, she added.

George W. Bush said he was unsure whether he had met John W. Hinckley.

Well.. I live with a Canadian and I'll have him post in this thread. I do know that when he sees what some in the US go through, losing their homes because of ridiculously high hospital bills, not getting care they need because they cannot afford or because insurance companies refuse to pay he feels a whole lot better about his situation.
