of the two who are ahead i would have to say obama, and not because of race because to me he is better than clinton. if edwards was running higher my vote would be with him.

Anyone who does not stand for the Pledge or the National Anthem does not deserve to be in this country. Countless lives have been lost preserving the freedoms that we have today, and if you can not show a little bit of respect for them, you do not deserve to be here

Do you even realize he is already a United States Senator?



Wow! And you stand for America? What a shame! There is no issue with a persons name. This country was built on immigrants of various names. For which he's an American by the way. He has a distinguished career and has helped so many people in the U.S. to fight discrimination. What have you done for people?

Again, ridiculous. Pick up a paper and read it. Watch the debates. Read about the biographies of the candidates. Read their books and articles. Read who they helped and what they stand for.

Are you just a follower? Our system was made for you to decide of your own mind. Not to vote based on who is winning a poll one day. Especially this early.

I agree with this because I have 10 relatives in Iraq, 20 that have died from other wars and my father is a veteran. i look toward his other qualities. i mean come on do you really want another Clinton as president. Since Bill did what he did wiht Monica is it possible Hillary could do the same perhaps to get revenge? and possibly impeached and removed from office and then what are we presidentless for a time being where it be important we have one?

You support someone who does not honor our flag and the people who fought for this country? What a shame. How about the reverse-discrimination in today's society? Do you see any all white college foundations? Do you see any white entertainment televion shows? Do you see any black comedians getting fired for making racial jokes against whites? No, you don't. THAT is reverse-discrimination and our society is so used to it that most people don't even notice it

I have read and watched and it's not ridiculous. He*l no im not a follower, no one has convinced me yet to go to one side or the other, in fact all my relative will be pissed b/c who im voting for. if i vote for edwards or anyone else, my vote isn't going to matter see and if i feel it doesn't matter i could very well not want to vote.

Obama admitted that he was a cocaine addict in college and used the drug to stay awake in classes and exams. It was on an interview on 60 minutes tv news show. I saw it so I know it was real.

Im sorry I usualy stay out of politics but I feel compeled to post on this one. Clinton may have her flaws, but I would rather vote for her than someone who claims to be a patriot, and wants to be our presedent but wont say the pledge of aliegence or sing the national anthem. The not using a bible thing I could care less about becouse I dont care what religion he is. As far as reading into someones background goes or listening to there debates, especialy listening to the debates, you are only seeing what there PR staff wants you to see. Everything that you see involving his run for president is pure PR. If you dont belive me think of it this way how many presedients have ever delivered all that was promised when he was campaigning.

perhaps this was meant to happen because as God says the world will eventually be filled of he*l. we all make mistakes, and as long as he doesn't do the cocaine now who cares? i also do not want a manipulative b*tch like clinton, who says the peoples children are the governments, well yeah only the ones in social services.

I'm a Catholic. I say the pledge of allegence.

However, I also realize that while our country was built on a foundation of Christianity it also conflicts with those individual freedom choices that are included in the constitution. If you "expect" one to place their hand over their heart "under God" you are denying them the freedom to choose. This does not mean that they do not pledge allegence to the country. I do not have a problem with anyone separating church and state (including country).

My brother in law is an atheist and doesn't say our pledge. But he supports our country, the troops, and has always been a very good citizen.

If you think this country will go down the drain due Allegence to the flag you are wrong. It's allegence to what the flag stands for and that's unity and freedom; both of which he stands for as Senator. Did you read his book? Thought so.

Jokes have nothing to do with reverse-discrimination. I won't respond to the last half of your diatribe. But I will say this.

Lisa lampanelli.... Enough said dude! I proved you wrong with her name alone.

Actulay you just tried to make yourself look smart and failed miserably. Lisa Lampanelli has taken so much flack for her comedy its not even funny. The difference is she just dosent care.

Wrong. The only reason Lisa gets away with it is because she openly DATES black guys. Somehow, this makes it okay to the black community. Everything I said was true. Lets see... Didn't some guy get just fired for saying a joke about black people over the radio? Yeah... it was HUGE news. It was blown completely out of proportion. This man joked about everyone, not just the black girls this one time. You obviously do not see it. Go on youtube and you will find a video clip of a black professor at NC State University. He openly stated, in front of reporters, that the "whole white race should be exterminated." WORD FOR WORD. Now... you tell me... if a white professor has said this about the black community, all hell would break loose. Open your eyes.
Oh and as to what I said about the pledge... There is NO reason someone can not say the pledge but just leave out "Under God." Period. There is NO excuse for him to not sing the National Anthem.

exactly rayne5, "However, I also realize that while our country was built on a foundation of Christianity it also conflicts with those individual freedom choices that are included in the constitution.

I agree with this as well tis why i have no problem with obama, and i wasn't trying to crack a funny for i know i am no comedian.

And last time i looked the pledge said "under god" not "under my christian god". Christian, muslim, jewish, pegan, polythiest, or monothiest. All believe in a god.

The point I am making is that White comedians still make fun of other cultures and so do other cultures.

He acts as though Black Comedians are getting away with murder for pointing out a White cultures social extremes.

Jeff Foxworthy makes fun of Rednecks.
Eddie Murphy made fun of whites in his movie.
Chris Rock made fun of black people in his movie.

Has nothing to do with reverse discrimination is the point.

Lisa remains very popular to those that want foul mouthed humor.
Lenny Bruce60's? Red Skeleton 70's? Sam Kineson 80's.... Andrew Dice 90's, I can go on if anyone wishes... They all pushed social and cultural boundries. I don't even like their comedy but they made money cause people listened.

well said!!!

was made for rayne as well as you! i love these rooms i definitly get another perspective.

Its not so much the pledg thing, I agree with seperation of church and state, its the part about the natinoal anthem. I mean comon hes running for presedent and he wont stand in respect for the national anthem. PLEASE

First of all, rednecks arn't a race.
Second... VERY few, if any, white comedians make fun of the black community for the exact reason that I stated before. They would get negative publicity and he/she would be labeled racist. You also seemed to have ignored the whole thing about the video of the NC State professor. Go look at it, maybe you will then see what I mean
