They were the ones interviewed and talked about as the campaign, but in fact were running their part of the campaign like they had always run campaigns in Chicago. The sleek campaign was the CA company in Nancy Pelosi’s district that she hooked Obama up with. This company had raised millions for Pelosi’s 2006 Congressional campaigns as well as was the top fundraiser for John Kerry in 2004. That was the real campaign – that Obama had nothing to do with, plus he was not the hi-tech visionary he has gotten credit for being. They were.

To better understand this, you must read the June 2008 article “The Amazing Money Machine” by Joshua Green. Go to http://www.theatlantic.com and then put The Amazing Money Machine in the search box. It is a pro Obama article, but unwittingly discloses many tidbits that we would not have otherwise known.

The article was written before all the final financial reports were released, like only 24% of Obamas contributors were under $200 and 76% of the contributors gave over $2,000 each. They tried to bamboozle us into thinking they had raised $700 million with $3, $5, $10 contributions in those little campaign offices. Think again.

It is undeniable that the race card was played often (shamefully so) in this last election, it was the only way such a miserable candidate had a chance, and it is certain that race was the deciding factor for many voters, but I firmly believe that there are qualified AA candidates out there that can truly transcend the race issue based on their inherent talents. No matter how dissasterous Obama will be, I don’t believe that should doom subsequent AA candidates. If that were true, then we just might have racist issues that need to be sorted out. It would be horribly wrong to equate a lousy performance of a tragically flawed individual like Obama with his race. There are screw-ups and brilliant stand-outs in all races.

It is a slippery slope for those of us who have never been inclined whatsoever to speak in terms that are considered at least negative by many and even racist by some. In my case, I couldn’t care less because I know without a doubt racism does not enter into it for me. I have always fought tooth and nail for civil rights and AA’s and am sure I will continue to do that.

But, I have to say, the events of the past year have set me back on my heels like nothing has ever done. Call me nieve, but I never dreamed this kind of deviousness was possible among democrats.

It’s ashamed that no one and even Obama never read the stimulus bill before signing it. How dumb is that? What has America done? We will pay for selecting Obama out of hate for the former president. America is the laughing stock of the world.

“Let’s say a person is on welfare, can’t find a job. But they could still do volunteer work….”

But how do they eat and pay the bills?

I’m also disgusted by Holder’s comments — even as is now AG and Obama Prez!

Women have been getting the short end of the stick since Fredrick Douglass decided it was politically expedient to omit them from the 15th Amendment, essentially abandoning woman who fought for the abolition of Slavery and for black suffrage.

“But then there’s the matter of the 15th amendment. There were a number of issue to clear up after the civil war (although most of them weren’t), such as the right to vote. Frederick Douglass was one of the many people who encouraged feminists not to pursue women’s suffrage during this time, as it was Negro’s Hour.”
