Could Biden name Bush v Gore? Off the top of his head, who knows. Most likely not. He'd be more likely to name a case that never happened.

When asked a similar question about what news sources she reads, her answer was something like 'lots', but she could not name one specific source.

You mean she didn't offer one specific source. If she'd said Anchorage Daily News, you'd be saying that wasn't a nationwide paper ... If she said the WSJ (do you think the Governors office doesn't get that?), you'd say their editorials are too conservative ... If she named a news source, you'd say she is dependent on only one news source ..... Whatever she said or didn't say, it would be criticized.

I don't have one specific news source either - though I do take the local paper, listen to the radio news, see news stuff on the web, have access to an energy news service online at work, ....

We have a right to know if the VP candidate is another George Bush.

We know the other VP candidate is Joe Biden - thats worse. Bush didn't send Iran $200M right after 911 like Joe called for.

Since she does not have a history in the national spotlight, there are many holes in her background.

What about the holes in Obama's background? Why did Bill Ayers pick him to chair the Chicago Annenberg Challenge which administered the grant Ayers wrote?

Is it just one of those weird coincidences that Obama and Ayers lived near one another when Obama was going to Columbia (and then they are nearby years later in Chicago's Hyde Park too)?

Like its a coincidence Obama ends up in Chicago where his teenage mentor, Frank Marshall Davis came from?

How is it that the teenage Obama had a relationship with Frank Marshall Davis, a black communist from Chicago who moved to HA and ran a paper business and wrote?

How did that relationship come about and why did a teenager and an older man hang out and talk? Obama mentions Frank in his autobiography and says when he himself moved to Chicago he looked up places Marshall had visited and "I imagined Frank in a baggy suit and wide lapels, standing in front of the old Regal Theatre, waiting to see Duke or Ella emerge from a gig."

What was the deal there - why did they ever even meet and why did he make enough of an impression on Obama that Obama ends up in his home city looking up his old haunts?

How about this question - what is a guy raised by white people in HA, who has no slave ancestors (actually he has white slave owning ancestors) doing spending 20 years in a racist church like TUCC? Does Obama really share his 20 year friend and mentor, Jeremiah Wright's viewpoint of America but is covering it up?
