First of all the laws of power can be applied to every politician in history it is required political reading and that is also where you would find the book in the book store so congratulations on stating the oblivious what gets me most about you Obama bashers is that you never offer anything constructive to the table when discussing these issues it is all about Obama this and that which really sounds as if you are being racist you don’t like that a black man is running the United States of America and your sick to your stomach and need a outlet without sounding like you are un hip or a racist which seems to be taboo now with his election. and anyone who would post something like this doesn’t really understand the laws of power nor does anyone who agrees with this post you are a enthusiast and need to find a more positive outlet for that energy as a matter a fact is I don’t care for the President myself and that is for other reasons most people wouldn’t agree with and I don’t care to discuss Its like my own little personal in my head thing but that’s another story bottom line if you want to help the situation then why don’t you do something constructive in your community be active and help out where you see fit to start change you want to see don’t just sit around writing BS which looks like you spent a lot of time on which I think I am spending too much on this response anyhow change starts with you not the president people who write these articles are the worse because all they do is focus on problems and offer no solutions that’s a number 10 character type all day. Well I offer this solution start with yourself and then your community until you can run for office and talk about some issues and no one person cannot be a issue and if you are already doing that your platform so far sucks

I.D.I.O.T. There should be a law against people like YOU. Ramblings on of a bigot. Get over it, YOUR President is B.L.A.C.K. – PERIOD.

Dude, you are stating in one of the laws that his weakness that he must transform is that he is Black? Come on! Blacks with Blacks and Whites with Whites? I can’t believe what you’re saying.

I’m with you in the fact that Obama seems to have gone Law by Law to win this Presidency, but, the fact is that this is what people want.

The prophet Samuel told us that we don’t need a king or a leader because we have the WORD of GOD! But how many of us think like that. So what did he do??? He gave us Saul!

To be honest, aren’t you trying to employ the same tactics that Obama has enacted and Robert Greene wrote!

Are you one of those who are scared that a Black man will do to you what you’ve done to them? Just a question. Frannk G.

Saying Obama never played the race card in this election is like saying Republicans never lie.

LIGHTACANDLE experience is as one lined as it is a one word. Quick questions. When George Bush Jnr was coming in what experience did he have? His being a son of a past President or him living at the Whitehouse for 8 years and seeing his father working late into the night consulting on Saddam and Osama with Collin?

What experience to the Presidency is McCain bringing to Whitehouse that is necessary and is needed? Being a veteran and having stared death in the eye and survived in the war? Aint America got other Veterans? Is America promising the world they will constantly be at war?

Hillary was more experienced than Obama. Was it because she and her President husband lived at Whithouse while he was on the job? If that is all she needed as a cutting edge is Hillary the only woman to have lived with her husband at the Whitehouse while he is on the job and so gained the invaluable knowledge by repetition?

Trivialities amaze me on how irrational they can make strong points appear. America’s President is Commander In Chief and war is all he is in for because America must find enemies, invest in fighting them, threaten the world, digress world development at intervals inorder to maintain its Superpowerdom.

And you think that is what the World should wake up to.

I suppose you got the spelling right. In which case I stop here. But if you were wrong and instead meant Odinga, the Kenya PM, then I think you are one of the few who are ever past by every American election. You do not make a difference at all. The reason is, you do not even know what you are looking for because you do not know what you want.

America is an oil endless pit and the same reason you do not mind spending USD10bln a month in running a country that hates you as a plague. The reason you went to the international human court where you were judge and both benches and accused Iraq of WOMD and sentenced it to hang by overunning the innocents and their livelihoods for no cause.

You handed over Saddam to his tribal haters and you witnessed his blood spew. Yet you talk of oil, innocents and your immoderated ethos linking bystanders to an event you are losing for your natural weakness.

For the records I implore you to look at the Nigerian, Sudanese or Libyan interests that America has not done in the immediate previous past that it would take Obama to make right. You need to be more precious in your research on events beyond your borders like I do if you are interested to use your findings to support certain important decisions you’d pray for others to make. The world has more democrats (I mean democrats) outside America than what America by its nature has given the world in the past and five of them come to mind – Kibaki, Mandela, Gadafi, Odinga and Chairman Mao.

And in telling you that maybe I should let you know that the world might eventually be geared towards a more sane error with the ascendancy of Barack Obama, whom, as you point out, is more Africa’s son. And how do you tell Americans these days?

That is the squalid mentality that has knocked out every noble sense from the thinking and orientations of McCain and Palin that each time they speak they paint America’s future with the same sticky statements that court rebellion by every coma, the very one that the world has resented.

Leave Africa out of the mess that you see in front of you. Our noble sons and daughters know how to live with our neighbors – we fight and make up. Our people are not in the business of dividing the world into axis of evil, our enemies, our allies and other centric selfish balderdash. Use your vote for McCain instead of abusing Africa.

What do you know of India and Indians in Africa? You would not understand if I told you that everyone in Africa is African. Leave Indian Africans alone to enjoy the fresh scenarios in their homeland (and which you dream) that is Africa. You can do whatever you want with Black Americans!

So True Jim, I’m sure some Obama supporters could apply the same 48 laws to Hillary.
Only I guess she doesn’t employ them very well because she lost the nomination.
How can you say Obama plays the underdog when Hillary is consistently CRYING about how she is treated in the press or about an SNL SKIT. Give me a break lets focus on more pressing issues Hillary Fans.
So what if Obama’s name is arabic does that make him any less American the author of this sounds like a racist bigot.
“Playing the race card” Obama has never played the race card in this election.

GET OVER IT HILLARY LOST!!!!
You pyscho conspiracy theorists.

Not only haven’t you read the book, but you just seem to forget that every good politician in the world follow these rules, because the fact is you can’t access to power if you do contradict the majority of them.

So did you actually read the book, friend, or just quickly glance at the laws, browse over some conservative blogs, and spit this out in ten minutes?

For example:

Law 10 is about avoiding dangerous, self-destructive people who may pull you into their wake and end up destroying you, and aligning yourself with happy and fortunate people who will influence you for the good.

This law has jack to do with Florida and Michigan not getting their votes counted. However, it does have a lot to do with why he distanced himself from Rev. Wright.

Law 16 has nothing to do with Rev. Wright. Using “absence to increase honor and respect” means removing yourself from a group temporarily to increase your respect within that group. Obama pulled himself away from Wright because it was hurting his campaign, not so Wright would honor and respect him more.

The rest of your arguments are just too weak to warrant comment.

It’s a shame. I was looking forward to a good read.

Hmmm, but other than the house he purchased what other ties does he have with this man. funny how our government is trying to coerce Rezko into embellishing the truth to implicate Obama. Please tell me what has gone wrong with our society.

let’s be real, I’m sure he meant city which is why no one made a big deal of it. furthermore, you dont graduate with a J.D. magna cum laude from Harvard and not know the difference. I’m quite sure he’s much smarter than most of the people in this country, even our backwards ass president.

What do you call President Bush? He is the biggest chameleon, excuse me liar on the earth. I guess you think it’s a coincidence that the gas prices are this high? especially considering how he made his millions…
