Voter Registration
It’s important that we get as many people registered as we can. Did you know that there are 8 Million African-Americans not registered to vote in America.
Pass this link on to friends and family. Let's get Senator Obama elected as President of the United States of America . Do we really want to see McCain/Palin in office?
If you’ve recently moved you have to re-register!!!! If your home has been foreclosed on, please know registrars will be notified, so don’t take a chance with this. Your most current address must be on file.

Thanks Veronica:) I will be passing this information on to those I know who are not registered. I was shocked myself to find out how many people are not registered.

Thank you for taking the time out to read this important message. It saddens me to see any race not taking the advantage to vote but when it come to the black race, it really saddens me. We are so close to make a difference for the good and only 1 out of 8 blacks are registered to vote, this is crazy. Well please spread word and thank you once again!!

OBAMA IN BIG TROUBLE!!! Scandal brewing over many of his staff being party to the financial collapse which began when none other than President William Jefferson Clinton repealed the Glass-Steigel Act. The very act which was put in place to prevent another 1929 market meltdown.
Why hasn't Sen. Obama called for a criminal investigation into this financial crisis? The reason is simple. Many of the players responsible INCLUDING Bill Clinton are on his campaign staff!!!!
Stay tuned and play close attention to the names:
Clinton appointee Franklin Delano Raines, former CEO of Fannie Mae who made off with over $100 million.
Clinton appointee and Janet Reno aide Jamie Gorelick who padded her pockets to the tune of another $75 million.
Senator Christopher Dodd and his relationship with Countrywide
And on a side note, Rep. Charles Rangel, Chairman of the House Ways and Means Committee which writes US tax policy under investigation for......TAX FRAUD!
Oh boy. It just does not get any better than this.
Of course, with Black folk, "the messiah" will not take any heat for this even in the face of us same Black taxpayers forced to fork over BILLIONS (including $85 Billion to AIG) to fix the mess DEMOCRATS CREATED!
Bill Clinton strikes again!

Would have to disagree with you on this one:
If a man builds the fastest race car of all times, and the best driver of all times crashes the car... who's fault is it??? Bush was behind the wheel my friend.

Behind the wheel of what? Be more specific please. Use the metaphors and analogies AFTER you defend a concrete premise you proffer.

You are one sarcastic individual!! Why do you take everything so personal? Chris does not have to be more specific a child could decipher what his point is. You need to really take a chill pill and calm down, no one is trying to change your views just would like you to be open to other people views.

I take none of this personally. I know none of you. This is a serious "hobby" for me and when you run upstream you get smacked a lot by that moving down stream en masse. And you say a child could decipher it? Well I am not a child so I need him to be more specific. I sense his implication but I challenge him to defend it in a coherent, complete, and concise manner. If he cannot do that as most Obama supporters cannot do then my assertions regarding the characteristics of the typical Obama supporter are confirmed.
I am open to others views WHEN THEY GIVE THEM! Geesh.
Question for you: Why are Obama supporters and liberals so angry all the time and why do you all start off with the personal attacks before you settle down and engage in the debate. Everytime I post something people do not agree with, the initial reply is often a juvenile outburst of raw emotion that is neither positive or productive.
