With a name like Obama - no chance

[one eyed jack]

The way I see it, if the Terminator became the governor of California and O J Simpson got off killing a white chick with a black representative of a legal defence team and former gang bangers of the bloods and crips can rub shoulders with Hollywoods elite then anything is possible..and it usually is in the good ol US of A.

I wonder how those jolly yokels in the deep sounth are taking it.

Looks like america is spoiled for choice between the first black man or (white) woman as president.

I agree with you that it may not happen here

If one of the news programmes I saw last night is anything to go by, most of them won't be bothering voting at all if there's no white male candidate.

If thats the case Pete then either of these two will win by default.

It does make me laugh how those who complain the hardest were the ones sitting their fat arses in the bar downing a Miller watching the game then act all stupefied if Obama or Hilary becomes President.

Besides hj4u what is the problem with america having a black or female president? I dont see the problem. Well no more so than the Bush administration anyway.

Unless they waste their time chasing the adult industry when there are more pressing concerns facing their country.

Mind you it makes snse with a huge recession coming that everyone can duck for cover and hide and blame it on the black man for getting us into this mess. LOL or saying if Hilary gets in, you cant send a woman to do a mans job.

All that aside why shouldnt Obama or Hilary do as good if not a better job than their predecessors? At least let them come in and screw up first. The americans at least afforded the previous presidents that.

I've not followed the circus enough to know, but are Hilary and Obama the best people for the job who just happen to be black/female, or have they been pushed to the front by some PC meddling?

If the latter then I can understand some not voting at all.

Yes but why ask that question at all. thats to suggest the whole nation of America doesnt take its voting procedure that seriously.

Did anyone question the previous presidents being good for the job? Do you think white americans are giving in to having a black man in the white house to appease overseas terrorists and cement flawed relations on its foreign policies?

I'm sure so much can be read into this but if people want to make a difference then maybe they should get off their fat, lazy, racist? sexist? arses and do something about it.

If you beleive the spin in the media, those in favour seem to think they are the right people for the job.
