Maybe if "Bill Smith from Idaho" had a Kenyan father, had written two books about the amazing journey of his life and was a highly gifted orator and organizer of political campaigns, yeah.

Abe Lincoln really hadn't done much either. I think Obama hasn't been corrupted by Washington yet, and his heart seems to be truly in the right place.

I don't think we'll get any changes with a lobbyist whore like McSame. Our country will still be yoked to the special interests.

Roll the dice for Barak. Believe that change can be accomplished. He'll make mistakes, but not anywhere NEAR as bad as the one's of our current resident.

I' pretty sure if he were a White guy that had several years as a State Legislator and then a couple as a Senator he WOULDN'T be in the position he is now, no matter HOW well he spoke. If he were Senator "Bill Smith" from Idaho do you think that YOU would be such a big fan if ALL the other variables were the same??

Yes.
