You say that you want an american that thinks of

, that's not Mccannot. All he wants to do is line his pockets with the kick backs from these greedy
oil robber barons. Then, get us into WWIII in the
mid-east through this idiotic colonialistic expans

make an effort to change our failed policies.
In conclusion, is that too much to ask for!?!
Truly, analyze this then get back to me.
Thanks, 10th cav. spectre
P.S. I meant to say be realistic- a correction,tha

I think it is abhorrent and irresponsible to ask the question whether or not we are ready to elect a black president. The question ought not to have to do with color at all. The question should be, are we ready to elect the most QUALIFIED candidate to be our president?

My bad on the percentage thingy. that is Ironic as math was one of my favorite subjects. I stand corrected if nicole is right then "Barak will be our next 43.75% Arab 6.25% African Negro and 50% Caucasian president" Even with all the corrections it's still sounds funny.

Where are the stories about this candidate's cousin and the Muslim butchery in Africa? Since when did our national press corps become weak, timid, and silent? Why haven't they regaled us with the long list of socialists and communists who have surrounded this 'out of nowhere' Democrat candidate or that his church re-printed the Hamas Manifesto in their bulletin, and that his 'close pastor friend and mentor' met with Middle East terrorist Moammar Gaddafi,(Guide of the First of September Great Revolution of the Socialist People's Libyan Arab Jamahiriya) Why isn't the American press telling us this candidate is supported by every Muslim organization in the world?

Why has the American mainstream media clammed-up on any negative reporting on Barak Hussein Obama? Why will they print Hillary Rodham Clinton's name but never write his middle name? Is it not his name?
Why, suddenly, is ANY information about this candidate not coming from mainstream media, but from the blogosphere by citizens seeking facts and the truth? Why isn't our media connecting the dots with Islam? Why do they focus on 'those bad American soldiers' while Islam slaughters non Muslims daily in 44 countries around the globe? Why does our media refer to Darfur as 'ethnic cleansing' instead of what it really is; Muslims killing non Muslims! There is enough strange, anti-American activity surrounding Barak Hussein Obama to pique the curiosity of any reporter. WHERE IS OUR INVESTIGATIVE MEDIA!?

What's the connection with Islam have to do with 4K americans who have loss their lives in Iraq defending the lives of people committed to ISLAM?

Aside from that, that was an awesome display during his speech today. Every American has to be proud to see the reception Obama received from the Europeans. The Europeans were waving American flags, over 100K strong. How is it that the world over recognizes the historical accomplishments of what Obama's achieved and a lot of Americans don't acknowledge this accomplishment.

He's done more for foreign affairs during the last week than this administration has done in the last seven years. Wouldn't it be something now to come and announce Colin Powell as Vice President.

May i also add to that, the first Queen of England was also "Black", also, Abraham Lincoln, who had "wooly" hair that his constituants clowned him about, had a "Black" mother! Shocking isn't it? Fascinating how some many people tend to hint that just about "all" the crime committed in this country is primarily caused by "Blacks", which is an assinine statement to make. "Black" families have been HISTORICALLY under attack in this country, which can lend credence to the large "Black" male population incarcerated. Remove the male from the family, especially the STRONG ones, stamp out the guidance system for young "Black" males and the rippling effect continues. How could one explain the prison population of states that have few or no "Black" people, i.e, Vermont, New Hampshire, North Dakota, Wyoming? They have prisons too! Enough on that note but, the last president that was, "Red, white and blue" in my humble opinion was JFK, despite his shortcomings, he lived it and breathed, read his book, "Profiles of courage". To say that Obama "isn't" R,W&B is a bit late don't you think? Apparently, he got elected to the Senate, i guess that doesn't count either?

Peace to all who are wise,

1.) Selma Got Me Born - NOT EXACTLY, your parents felt safe enough to have you in 1961 - Selma had no effect on your birth, as Selma was in 1965.(Google 'Obama Selma' for his full March 4, 2007 speech and articles about its various untruths.)

2.) Father was a Goat Herder - NOT EXACTLY, he was a privileged, well educated youth, who went on to work with the Kenyan Government.

3.) Father was a Proud Freedom Fighter - NOT EXACTLY, he was part of one of the most corrupt and violent governments Kenya has ever had.

4.) My Family Has Strong Ties To African Freedom - NOT EXACTLY, your cousin Raila Odinga has created mass violence in attempting to over turn a legitimate election in 2007, in Kenya . It is the first widespread violence in decades. The current government is pro-American but Odinga wants to overthrow it and establish Muslim Sharia law. Your half-brother, Abongo Obama, is Odinga's follower. You interrupted your New Hampshire campaigning to speak to Odinga on the phone. Check out the following link for verification of that....and for more.

Obama's cousin Odinga in Kenya ran for president and tried to get Sharia Muslim law in place there. When Odinga lost the elections, his followers have burned Christians' homes and then burned men, women and children alive in a Christian church where they took shelter.. Obama SUPPORTED his cousin before the election process here started.. Google Obama and Odinga and see what you get. No one wants to know the truth.

5.) My Grandmother Has Always Been A Christian - NOT EXACTLY, she does her daily Salat prayers at 5am according to her own interviews. Not to mention, Christianity wouldn't allow her to have been one of 14 wives to 1 man. 6.) My Name is African Swahili - NOT EXACTLY, your name is Arabic and 'Baraka'(from which Barack came) means 'blessed' in that language. Hussein is also Arabic and so is Obama.

Barack Hussein Obama is not half black. If elected, he would be the first Arab-American President, not the first black President. Barack Hussein Obama is 50% Caucasian from his mother's side and 43.75% Arabic and 6.25% African Negro from his father's side. While Barack Hussein Obama's father was from Kenya , his father's family was mainly Arabs.. Barack Hussein Obama's father was only 12.5% African Negro and 87.5% Arab (his father's birth certificate even states he's Arab, not African Negro!).

I did a google search. So they might be related. What's shoking about it?

Duuhhhhh....
The fact that Muslim terrorist Raila Odinga (Obama's cousin)-------attempted to overthrow the government in Kenya----murdered MANY people who got in his way-----so that he could put in a government of Islam/Sharia Law.
Obama just visited his cousin Raila Odinga in August, 2006 (Google it, if you do not believe me)----and took a recent phone call from cousin Raila during the New Hampshire primaries.
Know wonder some of you are Obama zombies.
I know, I know, what you Obama zombies will say......
There could be many of us who have family members who are Muslim terrorists, try to overthrow governments, and murder anybody/anyone who got in the way.

As far as the original question if America is ready to elect a black president: Obama could not have won the democratic nomination without plenty of white votes. Remember Jesse Jackson ran and while getting 99% of the black vote, he still got crushed in the election. What troubles me is that I can kind of sense that there will be black resentment/paranoia if he doesn't win. Remember Obama has almost zero experience, and seems to talk from both sides of his mouth. And sorry, spending twenty plus years in a racist church and calling the racist speaker his spiritual mentor doesn't exactly help him.

just to go a little further the very name EUROPE belongs to an AFRICAN PRINCESS. Her name was Europa.

She was the only daughter of the Phoenician, King Agenor of ancient Tyre. According to legend King Agenor (twin brother of the illustrious Belus), had originally migrated from Egypt to settle in Canaan which implies strong cultural as well as family ties to ancient Egypt.

The Kena’ani princess Europa, was kidnapped by sailors from Greece (Crete). They raided the Phoenician port of Tyre and carried her off.

Her angry father King Agenor immediately ordered hot pursuit with the instructions that the trackers were not to return to Tyre until she was found.

The pursuers led by Europa’s brother Cadmus (Kadmos) sailed after the ‘Greek’ kidnappers in an unsuccessful search for the princess. Being unable to return home empty handed they ended up establishing permanent colonies in some of the places they touched during the search. This included founding the ancient city of Thebes in central Greece. In myth and legend Thebes became the most renowned of all the ancient Greek cities.

As a consequence of the kidnapping, the region of the Western and Eastern Mediterranean where the Phoenician Canaanite search took place became associated with the princess ‘Europa’: hence the name Europe.
