When it comes to reaching out to the public Obama can achieve the unity he wants, as a candidate Obama was not even known less than a year ago. However, he was able to use the Internet to connect with millions of young people who are also voters who do not have a TV set or who do not watch the candidates in their debates. Obama has been known as saying we have not even scratched the surface of with this new political landscape, meaning the Internet and the computer users who might not hear from the candidates directly. Obama has not only stayed on track with what he said here over a year ago, but has also gone on to develop plans of how he can enact many of his ideas to make changes if he is elected.

Obama has also maintained a strong stance in all areas of his campaign while focusing on the problems of the country and what changes need to be made. Along with bringing these ideas of change to the Internet user so that they hear it in his words and not in the medias method of telling only parts of what a candidate has to say.

There are many voters that have learned what Barack Obama stands for, what his policy changes would mean to the country and what they can expect if he is elected as the next President of the United States. They have learned all this with their Internet connection on the web without all of the added extras or opinions of the media.

While some people are content watching the televised debates and the local news to form their opinion of who they want to run the country as the Commander and Chief for the next four years. There are many people who know with the Internet this is no longer the best way to make the decision of who they should vote for and to many people information is power. The power to be informed, the power understand just what a candidate plans to change, add and omit during their presidency.

It is only by a voter thoroughly educating themselves about the candidates that they will make the correct decision for which candidate they feel can do the best job of running the country.

The Barack Obama campaign has made this much easier by bringing Obama’s stand on what needs to change in the country to the internet and with this many more young voters know what he stands for. Many voters in general for the first time in many years are getting the unbiased information they need minus the media. Who in many cases decides who they feel should be the proper candidate to win the election and push that agenda and the voters either begin to believe it or they feel they must make a choice with out all the information they need if they are going to be a part of the voting process.

To assist in this campaign the supporters who have heard Obama’s message loud and clear are now wearing t-shirts to help support his continued campaign efforts.

Buy yourself a Barack Obama shirts and help support him in every way possible that will help him get elected as president. You can help support Barack Obama by wearing trendy Barack Obama t-shirts or by making a donation to the campaign. All the Barack Obama designs mentioned here are not official but rather are inspired by who might possibly be one of the most influencial politicians in a long time.

Angie Ryan asked:


The 2008 US presidential race has been a wild one. The anti-opposing candidate ads and campaigns have been getting more and more elaborate and as history shows, it’s not a rare occurrence. Presidents and presidential candidates have been called antichrists for as long as my memory goes so it doesn’t surprise me that this label is not attributed to Senator Barack Obama. There are countless websites dedicated to the Barack Obama the Antichrist phenomenon, many of them quoting verses from bibles that often times perfectly fit the profile Mr. Obama. But how far will this go?

I need to make one thing clear before I continue on – I am not an Obama voter. Democrats are not getting my vote. But guess what – neither are Republicans. This is not because I decided not to exercise my civic right to vote, it is because I’m not a US citizen. I do not live in the US either, but as a citizen of Canada, a country that has so many ties with the US, what goes on south of the border is of an interest to me. Just don’t call me biased. I’m not an Obama blind sheep, nor am I a McCain string puppet. I do not like either of them and don’t envy my American friends one bit for having to choose between those two.

But let’s not dwindle away from Barack Obama and websites that claim he’s an antichrist. Because of massive following of what appears to be blind-folded worshippers, for each Obama Antichrist website there is a website debunking the antichrist claims. Both of them are rather ridiculous, both lacking solid arguments, both can be ultimately debunked.

By taking a closer look at what those who believe that Barack Obama is an antichrist base their assertions upon it is easy to see where they’re coming from. Characteristics of Barack Obama simply fit the profile of an antichrist more than characteristics of any other man alive:

Charismatic – Check

Popular throughout many nations - Check

Leader of people - Check

Muslim descent - Check

Capable of making people follow him blindly – Check

And that’s not the end of the list. If you also consider his real motives for becoming the president and an undying desire to be “the first” you’ll get at best a questionable politician, and at the most extreme an antichrist.

Barack Obama is an opportunist who’s favored by Lady Luck. He’s well aware of it and when the opportunity struck, he grabbed at it firmly and didn’t let go. The picture of him in front of a board with buttons that he controls as well as the picture of his bank account growing by millions every month recalled the desires he was not willing to let go off. He’s ready and willing to say and do anything it takes to get that office. Because with that office he’s gonna get the control and the money he desires. What will happen then matters not. All that matters to him is to satisfy his desire of power and money.

As a Canadian who is active in public life style I have met with many fellow Canucks who share the same belief as our American friends – Barack Obama is an antichrist. When I asked around what made them think so, the most common answer was that Mr. Obama was largely funded and supported by the same bankers and shady organizations that control America and are believed to be behind the New World Order. Considering how much money and public brainwash by the media support he received from these cartels, it is to be expected that they will expect something in return. It is also possible that Barack Obama is their extended hand set to high place in order to execute their orders.

If that happens to be the case, if Barack Obama is hand in hand with the New World Order and if he is in fact an antichrist, then it’ll be his task to finalize The North American Union and introduction of Amero as the official currency of Canada, the United States and Mexico. When all this falls in place, this person, this possible antichrist, this Barack Obama will be ruling my home country of Canada too. And that’s what Canadians I have spoken with are afraid of the most.

Antichrist could be real, antichrist could be just across the border and if the antichrist becomes the president and unites our country with his, that antichrist will rule Canada and our own lives as well. And that’s a scary thought. I do not know whether Barack Obama is the antichrist or not, but even a slight chance of having an antichrist as my ruler makes me feel uneasy. I can only hope that good will eventually prevail, cause I’m not willing to join the army of antichrist’s minions.

Marcia Wood asked:


Whoa Senator Obama – You’re Starting to Push America’s Buttons

It doesn’t take a rocket scientist to realize that Senator Obama’s leadership ability is minus 10.  He can’t even take time out to help his Democratic Party or fellow Americans during this economic slump.  His buddies are praising him for his support and gibberish about bipartisanship, but 93 fellow Democrats stood up today and said, “No” to Pelosi and Obama.  Way to go Democrats! 

 

What’s Senator Obama doing as we speak, he’s twisting and turning the economic crisis into another political farce – Americans will soon come to their senses when they see how many Democrats aren’t playing Obama games anymore. 

His plan is to make the “Bad Guys” pay up and to knock our investors to their knees by raising their taxes and than have the terrorists sit down at his table for a little ”din din” and a couple of sodas.  Do we really want our President playing house with the terrorists or abusing our investors at this time?

Besides,  Mr. Obama most of the “Bad Guys” are going to go down in the next few months and won’t have the dinero to line the deep government pockets.  Our investors don’t have to lay around and let you beat on them – there’s other countries that would love their money.  The terrorists know which side of the bread their butter is on and they never turn down a free dinner. 

Where does America think Senator Obama is going to get the money to finance all his dreams and whims?  Lets get real here – there’s only one place to go for the kind of money!  He had his chance in the Senate to make a real difference, but he was too busy dreaming of playing house in the “White House.” 

Mr. Obama voted against strengthening the earmark reform 1/11/07.  Voted “Nay” on improving access to affordable healthcare.   “No” on making permanent certain education-related tax incentives.  Senator Obama didn’t want to increase the minimum for States under the State Homeland Security Grant Program.  Didn’t think Congress should be allowed to take a peek at “wasteful spending.  His voting record, you’ll discover is somewhat like Enron’s accounting!

One more bill that speaks a thousand word is this one.  He voted “Nay” To extend the 35, 33, 28,and 25 percent income tax rate structure and protect nearly 28,000,000 and individuals, including small business owners, from having their taxes increase to 39.6, 36, 31 or 28 percent. 

By checking the senator’s voting record, you will discover that education, the middle class, our security, our troops and keeping the government honest didn’t seem to be any of Mr. Obama’s concerns.  While you’re doing your homework, check on the Democratic Senate’s voting record the past several years.

Listen to him now as he prances around talking to Americans about his heart felt concern for little ole us!  If he couldn’t assume his responsibilities as a Senator, why would we give him a second chance at leading our country?

A world class education for our children sounds awesome, but Mr. Obama doesn’t have a clue how to implement this program, nor does he have any inkling where the money will come from for our children’s world class education.

Health insurance for all is a hazy subject with Senator Obama and he’s having as much problem addressing this problem as Hillary Clinton did when she assured Americans that she had the perfect health plan in the works. 

When Senator Obama was faced with the real issues during his short stay in the Senate, he was repeatedly a no-show when it was time to vote. One must wonder where this boy wonder came from for his ability to lead the Democratic Party is looking pretty bleak. 

The big three, Pelosi, Obama and Dean have totally confused their own party in their “Bail Out” blunders.  Seems to me around 93 Democrats voted no on this bill as they tried a slam dunk again - Democrats against Americans!”  

“Indecision” seems to be a “kissin cousin” with Senator Obama and team; it appears to be raising its ugly head once again - how many more changes will the Democrats try to sweep under the rug for their Presidential Candidate?  “Indecision” seems to be running rampant in the Democratic Camp – could it be the result of weak leadership or no legitimate platform?

 Don’t drill – drill      tax – don’t tax      wire taping no – well maybe yes

  immediate withdrawal from Iraq – well uuh, uhh  maybe, maybe not

 Invite the “bad boys” to his house for chocolate milk without any pre conditions – Henry Kissinger changed his mind on that “Blooper.”

 

Trouble with the trade issue – plenty of time to figure that out later

 

Fund Religious Organization – maybe or maybe not (not sure about this one)

 

Vote in the Senate  – no vote, safer to be a “no show” (Keep Americans in limbo)

 

Proud of his preacher friend  like family, mentor, close friend   – changed his mind decided to ditch preach because the kitchen was getting too hot

 

Don’t use Hillary or Bill – well maybe use Hillary & Bill

 

Use Michelle – better not use Michelle (just keep her busy shopping)

Help with the bail out – maybe campaigning is more important (just stay in touch by phone). 

 

Tread lightly with America on the “bail out” – straddling the fence is the safest

 

Blame John McCain for the Democrats blunders and greediness while “Fannie Mae & Freddie Mac” executives  laughed all the way to the bank and the story goes that they lined Senator Obama’s  pockets with gold – wrong again Senator.

 

Blame the Republicans  for the “recession” – Mr. Obama what if the News Media put the Senates voting record on National TV for the past few years?  There’s no doubt the Republicans helped, but the Democrats massacred us!

 

Why did your dear friend “Bill Clinton” refer to Senator McCain as “great” and he couldn’t spit out the word “great” when talking about you… 

 

Seems that Bill described you as one who “saw and imagined,” don’t think seeing or imagining qualifies you for leading.  I have a little 3 year old grandson, who spends his waking hours seeing and imagining. 

 

Even Bill Clinton isn’t ready to jump on your band wagon with open arms.  He will do whatever is necessary to keep his Senator Clinton in good standing with the Democratic Party, but the “buck stops there!”

America – it’s time to check out voting records, check out background of both President Elects, verify who has been leading and who has been following.  If you’re strictly depending on CNN for the real story, it’s not going to happen! 

 They admit that their polls were biased and they gush with prejudice, bias and re edited news – none of our news media should be our voice or decide who our next President will be in 2008.  CNN isn’t the only media with major problems – we have us an epidemic!  America has the ability to think for themselves and hopefully make a wise choice when it comes to our next President

To all those journalists, columnists and editors that want to campaign for their party – take a leave of absence or do it after hours, but not on America’s time.  We deserve the whole story from start to finish and we deserve the “truth.”

(October 10, 2008) Missouri Gov. Matt Blunt issued the following statement on news reports of Barack Obama’s use of Missouri law enforcement to threaten and intimidate his critics:

“St. Louis County Circuit Attorney Bob McCulloch, St. Louis City Circuit Attorney Jennifer Joyce, Jefferson County Sheriff Glenn Boyer, and Obama and the leader of his Missouri campaign Senator Claire McCaskill have attached the stench of police-state tactics to the Obama-Biden campaign. What Senator Obama and his helpers are doing is scandalous beyond words, the party that claims to be the party of Thomas Jefferson is abusing the justice system and offices of public trust to silence political criticism with threats of prosecution and criminal punishment. This abuse of the law for intimidation insults the most sacred principles and ideals of Jefferson.” (See full article:pumasunleashed.wordpress.com/2008/09/28/doj-may-open-investigation-into-obamas-use-of-law-enforcement-to-quell-critics/)

In addition to the above, there are mounting negative reports on Barack Obama. They include:

It’s mind-boggling enough to think there is anyone in this country who is willing to vote for Obama, it’s even harder to understand how Obama ever reached the 50% mark in polls.

Apparently, Americans are susceptible to celebrity-type images to the point where logic and reason go out the window. If you’re planning to vote for Obama, here’s a quick one-question test to help you sort out whether you’re choice is a logical one.

If you were looking to hire a new employee, would you hire someone with the above list of problems in his background? Even if you questioned one or two items, would you feel comfortable with that person? If your answer is yes, you’re fooling yourself, you’re not a businessman, or your business is going south. No one in his right mind would want to hire someone with the above background.

Yet, for some strange reason, there are people who are willing to vote such an utterly incompetent human being into the highest office of our land.

What people don’t seem to realize is this election is unlike any in our history. This election really isn’t about a liberal Democrat. It’s about an individual who will, in all likelihood, bring this country completely down on its knees.

There is absolutely no indication that Obama is capable of carrying out any of his promises. There is nothing in Obama’s background that gives us any assurance that his word even means anything, even if he were capable of bringing his promises to fruition. Yet some people are willing to stake the future of their country on someone who’s substanceless speeches — speeches that obviously do not come from experience, but from rehearsals — “sound good?”

You know what makes a good con artist? When you can’t tell the person’s conning you! If he wasn’t good at it, he’d never reach the level of “artist” — he’d remain just another hapless flunky.

What’s particularly astonishing is how the worse our economy gets, the higher Obama’s ratings go. Why? Does anyone honestly believe someone with Obama’s background is capable of doing anything to help our economy? Absolutely ridiculous!

If you think things are bad now, one year with a President Obama, I’m convinced, will totally ruin whatever is left of our great country.

John McCain may not be the Messiah we need. But what he says is honest, it comes from the heart, and it comes from experience. He has a record as a decent human being — an extremely important component in any endeavor — which at least allows you to have reasonable confidence that he will make every effort to help this country. You absolutely cannot say this about Obama — you have no idea what Obama will do, you have no idea what Obama’s capable of doing, you’re not even sure he will not simply cater to a small portion of Americans and to hell with the rest. Are you willing to take that risk?

In a different election, McCain might not have been the perfect candidate. But in the current one McCain looks pretty damn good, and every vote for Obama is, in my opinion, another nail in the coffin of America. Don’t take that chance. The country you save may be your own.
