if you could manage to discuss politics without making it a PERSONAL ATTACK on anyone and any view, then you sir, are WELCOMED on this here forum
This is just one state. Stop FOOLING yourselves people. America will NOT elect a black president in our time.When the white race becomes a minority in America in about 50 years, THEN maybe you'll see it.Obama winning one primary means nothing in the larger scheme of things. I just can't WAIT to seewhat happens in the so-called 'red' states.
its actually an insult to think that he could possibly win the actual electionthis is the same country that elected then RE ELECTED george w bushTHOSE kinds of people, would never vote for obamalets not forget what happened in miami when the black people were trying to vote for a WHITE candidate...they started arresting and beating them up like hot cakes to stop there votewhat yu think going an happen on election day??it goin an have mysterious mass arrests in LA ,ny, miami, chicago,atlanta..lol i meanyu could see arkansas ,texas, ALABAMA voting obama in??ahhahaah neverrrrr
thats not true about 911 being fresh in their mindsthe week before bush was re electedamerica made the announcement that indeed there were no WMDs in iraqso , the ENTIRE reason for starting a war with iraq was completely thrown out the windowand they STILL re elected himthats hard core stupidityand even though they wont like putting a woman in poweratleast shes a WHITE womanif it was a black woman... THENNN wow
The democrats have the best chance to win this rounds, everyone ready for a change. What has America gotten with this Bush Regime? Attacked, War, Higher Oil Prices, More War, and now it looks like we heading into a recession, and it will be BAD. IF Obama does win, I can't see him lasting very long, there is racial tension in this country regardless of what people may think, a black president will not be favored amongst the red necks as Arcman meant by his "red America" comment. Look at what happened in 24, that man from the Allstate commercials didn't last two terms, he end up getting killed. There is a far way to go in America for that to ever happen, sad to say...
I'm afraid you're VERY wrong there mate. A black US president will NEVER happen unless the racial balance of America is changed.After what has taken place for the last 400 years, it is foolhardy to think ANY black man in this day and age will actually get elected.Sadly, there are too many white Americans that cling to that 'old' way of thought, and by 'old' I mean racially biased...and IF by somemiracle he DOES get elected, he wont last a full term without some Aryan a$$hole with a high-powered rifle, or a van full of fertiliserhaving a go at him.America aint ready mate.Keep on wishing. I'll be right here when its all over to scream 'I TOLD YOU SO!!!'America getting a black president is like trinis suddenly hating chicken...tomorrow.
True racism is still a force to be reckoned with in america , but most racists are republican ANYWAY and stick to the far right . We'll see what happens as results for the other primaries come in within the following months , this victory for obama is a huge boost . As Lloyd Best said ' Nothing succeeds like success ' , Obama looks like a winner and has won the first primary , he'll begin to suck up support from other candidates who now look less viable .
Agreed , this could be a nice opportunity to promote dialogue between different cultures...Nowhere in the GATT rules says forum members have to be Trini.. Though i'd prefer someone with an ounce of knowledge about us , our culture and beliefs .
Judging by their writing style both Grim and Neocon are fairly young and biased..
Obama voted against the war in iraq because there was little evidence that Iraq posed a threat to US security .Bush disregarded evidence that Iraq stopped WMD production , invaded Iraq with an insufficient number of troops to hold it properly ( 500 000 was recommended) because : He was following his 'gut' So tell me , who is more illogical in this case , the democrat or the republican?
Take this message back to the WAB board : Many citizens of other nations want a democrat , most of us want Obama .
Obama willing to invade Pakistan in al-Qaeda huntBarack Obama, a leading Democrat candidate in the US presidential race, provoked anger yesterday by threatening to send troops into Pakistan to hunt down terrorists — even without permission from that country’s Government.
“There are terrorists holed up in those mountains who murdered 3,000 Americans. They are plotting to strike again . . . If we have actionable intelligence about high-value terrorist targets and President Musharraf won’t act, we will.”
WASHINGTON - Pentagon officials acknowledged Monday that Paul Bremer, the senior U.S. official in Iraq during the first year of the war, told Defense Secretary Donald H. Rumsfeld in May 2004 that a far larger number of U.S. troops were needed to effectively fight the insurgency but his advice was rejected.............. Bremer served as head of the Coalition Provisional Authority from May 2003, shortly after the fall of Baghdad, until June 2004,
I guess that was the most you could have done for such humiliation after consistently losing to him.
AAAAAHHHHHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!F@CK YO COUCH N1GG@!!!
The main reason for the collapse of the US dollar is PresidentGeorge W. Bush's attempt to fight expensive foreign wars while cuttingtaxes at home. This involved deficit financing on a very large scale, andinevitably the value of the dollar began to fall -- slowly at first, butwith increasing speed as it became clear that the White House did not care. "Ronald Reagan proved that deficits don't matter," as Vice-President DickCheney told then-Treasury Secretary Paul O'Neill.
AMERICA’s elder statesman of finance, Alan Greenspan, has shaken the White House by declaring that the prime motive for the war in Iraq was oil.In his long-awaited memoir, to be published tomorrow, Greenspan, a Republican whose 18-year tenure as head of the US Federal Reserve was widely admired, will also deliver a stinging critique of President George W Bush’s economic policies.However, it is his view on the motive for the 2003 Iraq invasion that is likely to provoke the most controversy. “I am saddened that it is politically inconvenient to acknowledge what everyone knows: the Iraq war is largely about oil,” he says.
PROOF - WAR ON IRAQ IS FOR OILBush decided to invade Iraq in April 2001, six months before September 11th, and the official reason was to improve Western access to Iraqi oil."President Bush's Cabinet agreed in April 2001 that 'Iraq remains a destabilising influence to the flow of oil to international markets from the Middle East' and because this is an unacceptable risk to the US 'military intervention' is necessary."[1] The decision for military action had nothing to do with 9/11, the war on terrorism, the UN weapons inspections, weapons of mass destruction, Iraqi human rights, or any of the factors that the US government would like you to believe are the true motives for war.The only people who will benefit from the war on Iraq are the elite wealthy oil men who finance Bush's election campaigns, and people like Bush who have huge personal investments in the oil industry. Oil company profits have already increased by fifty percent this year because of the war, and the invasion hasn't even started yet!"Profits in the fourth quarter soared 50% to $4.09bn (£2.5bn), beating analyst expectations."[2] War-time propaganda tells you what you want to hear; that your politicians have noble motives for the war on Iraq.Before you choose what to believe, have you considered the facts[3] for yourself?SOURCES:[1] Sunday Herald newspaper (UK), "Official: US oil at the heart of Iraq crisis", 6 October 2002.
