No one can say that something isn't afoot in the country when you think about the reaction to Obama and his message and the amount of people who focused on that speech with positivity. Most of us as Americans are tired of the same old, same old and are looking for something new and far greater than what we have right now. What's amazing to me that the media has not been doing it's job by informing us what Bush and his camp has been doing behind our backs behind closed doors. He is at this time, in secret making plans to keep us in perpetual war. Bush who Mccain supports hate Americans and America and he only wishes to fill his pockets as much as he can. Go to Currents online and see what's going on!

I went onto the sites Currents and this is what they posted; As the nation focuses on Sen. John McCain's choice of running mate, President Bush has quietly moved to expand the reach of presidential power by ensuring that America remains in a state of permanent war. Buried in a recent proposal by the Administration is a sentence that has received scant attention -- and was buried itself in the very newspaper that exposed it Saturday. It is an affirmation that the United States remains at war with al Qaeda, the Taliban and "associated organizations." Part of a proposal for Guantanamo Bay legal detainees, the provision before Congress seeks to “acknowledge again and explicitly that this nation remains engaged in an armed conflict with Al Qaeda, the Taliban, and associated organizations, who have already proclaimed themselves at war with us and who are dedicated to the slaughter of Americans.” The New York Times page 8 placement of the article in its Saturday edition seems to downplay its importance. Such a re-affirmation of war carries broad legal implications that could imperil Americans' civil liberties and the rights of foreign nationals for decades to come.

Look at both Obama and McCain's history of voting and experience. They would not qualify for the CEO of a major company, much less for president of the US. Obama is an untested, inexperienced figurehead put into position because he's black, let's be blunt. McCain is a liberal in disguise, his voting record is anything but conservative. We're at the beginning of the end of this great nation, a failed experiment that almost succeeded. We now elect our leaders based on style, not substance.

Obama may be a man of words but not may be a man of deeds (of being inexperience ). Is he really capable to be the next president? You maybe decieved with speeches and stories.
