AP tally: Obama clinches Democratic nomination

6 minutes ago

WASHINGTON (AP) - Barack Obama effectively clinched the Democratic presidential nomination Tuesday, based on an Associated Press tally of convention delegates, becoming the first black candidate ever to lead his party into a fall campaign for the White House.

Campaigning on an insistent call for change, Obama outlasted former first lady Hillary Rodham Clinton in a historic race that sparked record turnout in primary after primary, yet exposed deep racial divisions within the party.

The AP tally was based on public commitments from delegates as well as more than a dozen private commitments. It also included a minimum number of delegates Obama was guaranteed even if he lost the final two primaries in South Dakota and Montana later in the day.

The 46-year-old first term senator will face Sen. John McCain of Arizona in the fall campaign to become the 44th president.

THIS IS A BREAKING NEWS UPDATE. Check back soon for further information. AP’s earlier story is below.

Father Pfleger Apologizes, Barack dissapointed

Friday, May 30th, 2008

<img src=”Photobucket” alt=”" />

Well real rap, I’m disapointed in Barack right now. Here is his quote “”That is why I am deeply disappointed in Father Pfleger’s divisive, backward-looking rhetoric, which doesn’t reflect the country I see or the desire of people across America to come together in common cause.”

Like Barack are you serious, do you not see the monkey t-shirts, do you not hear the backwards muslim rhetoric about you my brother. Do you not constantly see the racism and white privilege that exists in America. Just because I support you brother does not mean that I will allow you to lull me to sleep with this beautiful America, that across the country people who are campaigning for you are not being met with blatant racism.

We can never advance as Americans if we lie to ourselves, If you continue to make it look all peachy keen, how can we ever address the issues and provide plausible solutions. I realize that my vote alone will not get you elected my brother. However, neither will this appeasement of white voters and making them and us believe that their is not some truly divine hatred in this country for your presidency because you are black. My brother we both know better than this.

Father Pfleger, as a white man I am shocked that the media even bothered to condemn your comments, it is only because you are outwardly supporting a black candidate. I noticed that you said some, yes some, not all whites are racist and not all blacks are in jail. Stereotypes rip through our society and are given as false truths. However your portrayal of Clinton seems accurate to me, it’s accurate to the cartoonist who posted the picture below. They weren’t bastardized for their comments, so please do not apologize for speaking what is truth, far too long have we allowed ourselves both black and white to be lied too.

We will never progress if all we do is sweep our problems under the rug! Sounds to me like the same old Washington Politics with this one Barack, WE CAN DO BETTER. YES WE CAN SI SE PUEDE!

HILLARY CLINTON: 99 PROBLEMS BUT A B**** AIN’T ONE

Thursday, May 29th, 2008

hillary

Ok this is a clear case of when keeping it real goes wrong. It is very clear who I am a supporter of (Barack Obama, YES WE CAN), but pictures like the one above do our movement more harm than good. Now of course at a first glance we all might chuckle a little, get a good little laugh out of it all. However, the effects can be so damaging, have we not noticed that Hillary and her supporters are die hard extremists. Photoshops like this fuel their anger for the Obama 08 movement and push them even further towards McCain and or any other solution that does not equal CHANGE WE CAN BELIEVE IN!

First we have to stop referring to women as bitches, and understand that in order to win this election we do need to cut into her fan base. We need to woo some of those feminists over here to Team Obama and we are not going to do that by making disturbing pictures of their favorite candidate. Politics is unfortunately more about perception and less about Policy and the issues. Couple this pic with Barack’s “sweetie” comments and we have an all out war on our campaign as if we believe women should be barefoot and pregnant. NOT COOL, and it devalues the type of change we are all seeking! OBAMA 08 YES WE CAN

How about address some real problems like: HEALTH CARE, GAS PRICES, THE FAILING ECONOMY, FORECLOSURES…… PEACE AND LOVE

Warren Buffet Endorses Barack Obama

Monday, May 19th, 2008

WARREN BUFFETT

In Frankfurt Germany today the multi-billionaire Warren Buffet endorsed Barack Obama. This is fresh off the presses. I’m amazed at the type of support that Barack Obama is receiving. It’s overwhelming how he has transcended so many different groups and received accolades and acknowledgments that he should be the next President. YES WE CAN! SI SE PUEDE!

Huckabee jokes about an assassination attempt on Obama

Friday, May 16th, 2008

huck

All I can really say right now is WTF! There are so many things wrong with Huckabee’s statement that I do not know what to say.

While speaking at an event for the National Rifle Association a loud noise was heard off stage. Former Republican Presidential candidate then joked “That was Barack Obama, he just tripped off a chair, he’s getting ready to speak,” said the former Arkansas governor, to audience laughter. “Somebody aimed a gun at him and he dove for the floor.”

This is the man who just a few months ago wanted to be the President of the United States. This is more than just a bad joke, this is a tasteless comment made by the epitome of a political loser. It is apparent that this comment was made because Barack is running for the highest position in the land and Huckabee well knows that some whites are uncomfortable with this. But to joke about the assassination of the man who will become the next President of the United States is irresponsible and utterly ridiculous. This is the latest blunder by the Republican party. This week from George Bush, to the Tennessee G.O.P. to John McCain and now Huckabee have all been involved in a string of divisive comments looking to further alienate the American People. The time for Change is NOW VOTE OBAMA! YES WE CAN!

John Edwards Endorses Barack Obama

Thursday, May 15th, 2008

Yesterday Former Democratic presidential candidate John Edwards joined the Obama Express for CHANGE. I was surprised by this endorsement because Edwards has been out of the race for over 3 months and still had not committed himself to anyone. However as an Obama supporter I am thankful for this endorsement and I hope Edwards will be a fierce campaigning comrade for Barack Obama because we need all the help we can get. YES WE CAN SI SE PUEDE!
