OK, some people are saying I should drop out at this point, but I have no plans to drop out whatsoever. I am taking this all the way to the end of the primaries and to the convention. The media is saying I can't win, but I owe it to the voters that have joined me in this fight to continue my ascension to the white house. Here is how I can still win this thing:

According to the latest totals on CNN, Obama has 1,881 total convention delegates to my 1713, giving him a lead of 168. Michigan and Florida will count, getting his lead down to 46. OK. Then if the DNC rules committee were to also decide to count West Virginia just 6 times instead of only once it would propel me into the lead by 4 full votes. That's all it would take.
You know, I was talking to voters in West Virginia last week and a woman came up to me and said that she wished she could vote for me more than once. That got me thinking: no democratic candidate has won the presidency without West Virginia since 1916. It's people are the core of America: hard working, uneducated, and white. They SHOULD count more than other states. Looking at those West Virginia voters during my glorious victory speech last night, they were happy, yes, but there was an emptiness in knowing that their votes would count just once. We must give these voters their full due respect by giving them each 6 votes. My campaign will make our case to the DNC rules committee on May 31. I'm sure the honorable members will see that to deny our claim would be to deny the hard working, uneducated, white people throughout the entire country!

I can't understand what the Democrats are doing. As important as this election is, why put up two people whose votes will be polarized from the start? As open minded as we all are, there are many who will never vote for a black man, and many who will never vote for a woman, not just in West Virginia, but nationwide. I'm not saying this will never happen, but why try it now?
McCane, to me, seems a bit phoney as he monotonely reads his speech from the teleprompter. We need a change in policy, foreign and domestic, a change I can't see coming from McCane. This makes the third presidential election in which I have no idea whom to vote for.
I will say, putting either Clinton or Obama in office would say to the rest of the world that American's are not about bigotry and hate. We don't believe skin tone dictates who you are. We have looked at our choices and decided, regardless of color or gender, Obama or Clinton has what it takes to make a good leader. The only problem is, many will not vote for him because he is black, and many will not vote for her because she is a woman. I almost feel as if I'm voting for Nader.
I say this, because in the past Ralph Nader has ran on the third party ticket. The problem with voting for the third party is that they never have enough support to actually win and end up only taking votes from the Democrats and Republicans. You end up throwing away your vote on someone who can't win.
I'm not saying Obama can't win, he certainly has a good chance, but many will not vote for him simply because he's black. The same being said for Clinton if she gets the nod. The first black president and the first female president already has a stigmatism attached, regardless of their abilities.
I don't believe or intend this statement to be racist, it's not the way I was raised. I work daily, even on weekends, and like most in West Virginia, live pay check to pay check, gas pump to gas pump. I'm not backwards, fully pronounce vowels and consonance, and have a collage degree. My wife and I are not related.

You are modest not to mention your wins in other states who will cast their Electoral votes in the Democratic column.

That you win in the states needed for a Democrat... while Mr. Obama looses them; and that Obama in only able to win caucuses in states which will vote for McCain in November is chilling.

Your critical task in to appoint great floor managers and whips. After the third ballot, the convention will begin to lean away from Obama. You must capture that vote.

Finally, I feel that caucuses instead of primary elections is discriminatoty:
Caucuses discriminate against mothers, elderly, and hard-working people who cannot spare 6 or 8 hours; and have to get up at 6 or 7 am. Do these groups sound familiar? They are the ones who couldn't participate in the caucus system, and benefitted Mr. Obama by their absence.

TWELVE REASONS NOT TO VOTE FOR THE PHONY FLAKE.( PART 1 )
The semi-black flake shouldn't be elected President because:
(1) The Wright debacle exposed Obama to be a SOCIOPATH and a COMPULSIVE LIAR.
(2) In addition to (1).....a semi-black flake with BAD JUDGMENT.
(3) His friendship with the UNREPENTANT HOMICIDAL TERRORIST MANIAC not only shows where Obama is coming from, it again underlines Obama's LACK OF GOOD JUDGMENT.
(4) We don't want a President who is the first choice of the IslamoFascist Swine.
More importantly from his book: "Audacity of Hope", Obama states: " I will stand with the Muslims should the political winds shift into an ugly direction."
(5) We don't want a SURRENDER MONKEY like Obama to present Iran, and the other Islamofascist Swine the Strategic Mid East on a silver platter based on Obama's DELUSIONAL ASSERTION that he can negotiate away the HOMICIDAL ANIMOSITY OF ISLAMOFASCISTS' HATRED OF AMERICA.....AND THEIR MEGALOMANIACAL DESIRE TO CONTROL THE MID EAST.
(6).HOW WOULD YOU LIKE THESE HOMICIDAL ISLAMOFASCIST MANIACS ARMED WITH NUKES ???????
(7) We don't want a First Lady who is NOT proud to be an American and who thinks we are MEAN We certainly don't want a BLACK RACIST to be our First Lady
(8) Personally I hate racists of any colour. KKK should be outlawed, and it is. However, BLACK RACISM is flourishing. Nation of Islam, etc. And, over 90% of the Blacks are obviously Black Racists voting STRICTLY along racist lines. Do you want a President who is the choice of Black Racists to run our country ?
Obama is a PHONY when he proclaims, or implies, that he the the "Great Unifier" of America. There is NO RECORD AT ALL of bi-patrisanship in his Senatorial record.
More importantly from his book:'Dreams of My Father", Obama states: "I found solace in nursing a pervasive sense of grievance and animosity against my mother's race."
PART 2 follows.
Your wacko ranting exposes a deviant, damaged mind. Your opinions are not arguments, and apply more to Mr. McCain that to Mr. Obama.

I can't wait for more sawdust, just make it short.

Stop wasting time on dysfunctional 2-fer 3rd termer.

Are we selecting a candidate for the US of A or
the US of Israel. Those TV talking heads wail on
about Israel - the jewish voters - won't be voting
for Obama. I clearly undestand their reasoning.
The chaos perpertrated by our Zionist Prez was
exquisitely engineered to suit the ME homeland -
it seves to bury those Palestinians - and to create a greater Israel. Sheep, Wake up!

Obama presidency would help restore the prestige that the US of Israel president lost to us. This exiting Zionist claims 300 million of us for the statelet that we planted sixty years ago. The source of our spiralling demise since. Waterboarding fruit cakes for Zion. Lieberman, McCain's handler, thrilled beyond belief at the Obama smearing that suits the grand plan of our
Masters. How dumb can we be - we'll get what we deserve.

This Racist Anti-American hypocrite is nuts... Hussein will do and say anything to be president...
Sightings of a cross around town...

In Kentucky, he is making a direct appeal to Evangelicals with flyers that mention his conversion experience and they highlight a big old cross. Remember Mike Huckabee’s supposed subliminal cross in his Christmas campaign ad? Well, the Obama campaign ditches the subliminal and goes for the in your face cross. Look at the flyer here.

The Obama campaign has consistently believed that their candidate can compete for the “religious vote”. A lot has been made about how Obama hasn’t done as well with Catholics compared to Clinton. But let’s remember one thing: Obama has a story to tell about how Jesus came into his life. You can bet we will be hearing more details about it on the stump in the fall.(if Obama is the nominee)

He's for Partial Abortions-Voting against the Born-Alive Infant Protection Act..

Obama’s US Senate campaign committee, starting with his successful run in 2004, has collected $128,000 from lobbyists and $1.3 million from PACs, according to the Center for Responsive Politics, a nonprofit organization that tracks money in politics. His $1.3 million from PACs represents 8 percent of what he has raised overall. Clinton’s Senate committee, by comparison, has raised $3 million from PACs, 4 percent of her total amount raised, the group said.

In addition, Obama’s own federal PAC, Hopefund, took in $115,000 from 56 PACs in the 2005-2006 election cycle out of $4.4 million the PAC raised, according to CQ MoneyLine, which collects Federal Election Commission data. Obama then used those PAC contributions — including thousands from defense contractors, law firms, and the securities and insurance industries — to build support for his presidential run by making donations to Democratic Party organizations and candidates around the country.

Obama spokeswoman Jen Psaki said that after seeing the influence of lobbyists firsthand during his two years in Washington, Obama decided before he entered the presidential race that he would take a different approach to fund-raising than he had in the past.

Though Obama has returned thousands of dollars in campaign contributions from registered federal lobbyists since he declared his candidacy in February, his presidential campaign has maintained ties with lobbyists and lobbying firms to help raise some of the $58.9 million he collected through the first six months of 2007. Obama has raised more than $1.4 million from members of law and consultancy firms led by partners who are lobbyists, The Los Angeles Times reported last week. And The Hill, a Washington newspaper, reported earlier this year that Obama’s campaign had reached out to lobbyists’ networks to use their contacts to help build his fund-raising base.

This activity, along with Obama’s past contributions from lobbyists and PACs, has drawn fire from opposing campaigns. Some political analysts say Obama, by casting himself as an uncorrupted good-government crusader, has set himself up for charges of hypocrisy.

no to Hussein Obama...

Democrats voted at 9:50 PM on Thursday May 18, 2006 to block US companies from drilling off the coastal United States. This vote passed even though China, with an awful environmental record, will be drilling for oil within 50-100 miles of America's shores. Cuba announced last week that 36 oil wells are in the works, already.
