<Yes, and there were the cases in Ohio where the Obama supporters registered out of State workers at an address and voted. Bet you never saw it.> "Out of state workers"??? WTF is that? Are they US citizens?? They "work" in Ohio?? What does this have to do with US citizens not being able to vote?? DAK

Subject: What if...The Presidential "race" was reversed? Something to think about... Obama/Biden vs McCain/Palin -- What if things were switched around?..... Would the country's collective point of view be different? What if the Obamas had five children, including a three month old infant and an unwed, pregnant teenage daughter? What if John McCain was a former president of the Harvard Law Review? And what if Barack Obama finished fifth from the bottom of his graduating class? What if McCain had only married once, and Obama was a divorcee? What if Obama left his first wife after a severe disfiguring car accident for a woman he met in a bar, who he had a long affair with while he was still married. What if Michelle Obama was the wife who not only became addicted to pain killers but also acquired them illegally through her charitable organization? What if Cindy McCain graduated from Harvard? What if Obama had been a member of the Keating Five? (The Keating Five were five United States Senators accused of corruption in 1989, igniting a major political scandal as part of the larger Savings and Loan crisis of the late 1980s and early 1990s.) What if McCain was a charismatic, eloquent speaker? What if Obama couldn't read from a teleprompter? What if Obama was the one who had military experience that included discipline problems and a record of crashing seven planes? What if Obama was the one who was known to display publicly, on many occasions, a serious anger management problem? What if Michelle Obama's family had made their money from beer distribution? What if the Obamas had adopted a white child? This is what racism does. It covers up, rationalizes and minimizes positive qualities in one candidate and emphasizes negative qualities in another when there is a color difference. Educational Background: Barack Obama: Columbia University - B.A. Political Science with a Specialization in International Relations. Harvard - Juris Doctor (J.D.)
