They were definitely some rowdy guys. Thomas Jefferson's Vice President shot George Washington's Secretary of the Treasury in a duel. Burr-Hamilton Duel en.wikipedia.org I haven't seen the Adam's series, but I plan to make a point of it in the future. :) * * *

Two questions for you: 1) What's a BFF? 2) Why didn't you know the relationship between Washington, Adams, and Jefferson?

Dude or dudette, thanks for posting this on Chinu's thread: To: johnflipflopper who wrote (120709) 4/16/2008 1:13:38 PM From: BRUMAR89 6 Recommendations Read Replies (1) of 120877 Obama's book, The Audacity of Hope, was taken from one of Jeremiah Wright's sermons. I think Obama's next book, written after his upcoming electoral loss, will also take its title from a Wright sermon: "God Damn America" Message 24508006 I wouldn't have posted that on Chinu's thread myself out of politeness - knowing they are OBama supporters, why bother just insulting them. But, not being encumbered by any such notions, you posted it on my behalf. Pretty cool.

Mr. Obama is seeking to absorb the lessons of his defeat in Pennsylvania. The changes reflect concern that he is being portrayed by Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton as distant and culturally out of touch with many working-class Democrats, a worry underlined by her lopsided victory among many of those voters in that state on Tuesday and last month in Ohio. Mr. Obama, in an appearance with Chris Wallace broadcast over the weekend on “Fox News Sunday,” played down his problems among blue-collar voters, saying that Mrs. Clinton had done better in part because “they are less familiar with me than they are with her, and so we probably have to work harder.” “I’ve got to be more present,” he said. “I’ve got to be knocking on more doors. I’ve got to be hitting more events. We’ve got to work harder because although it’s flipped a little bit, we’ve always been the underdog in this race.” In interviews with several associates and aides, Mr. Obama was described as bored with the campaign against Mrs. Clinton and eager to move into the general election against Senator John McCain of Arizona, the presumptive Republican nominee. So the Obama campaign is undertaking modifications in his approach intended to inject an air of freshness into his style. In strategy sessions last week, advisers concluded that Mr. Obama, of Illinois, needed to do a better job reminding voters of his biography, including his modest upbringing by a single mother and one of his first jobs as a community organizer helping displaced steel mill workers. He also has to sharpen his economic message, they said, to improve his appeal and connection with voters in hope of capitalizing on the sensibilities that served him well in Midwestern states.
