19. No, Bush has demonstrated that he is a threat to the
world by his deeds. Obama hasn't demonstrated he can change anything by his deeds....it's all words.

I saw a post yesterday by an Obama supporter stating how they had been a HUGE supporter of Spitz until this scandal and now they are so angry and disillusioned. That is the danger I see with the Obama supporters. They are putting him on a pedestal and there is only one place for him to go.....down. All of these politicians are just politicians and people. None are endowed with super powers to unite and change anything and those who fall for pretty words without looking for the substance of deeds are doomed to be hugely disappointed.

I for one don't buy that Muslims are encouraged because Obama's father was a Muslim. Obama is, after all, an infidel in their eyes. I'm curious as to why you think his Muslim father is an asset in the Muslim world.....do you have evidence or is it just your opinion?

And if Africans are encouraged because he is Black is it because of his deeds or because he is Black? If people were saying they support Obama because he has done this, and this, and this, then I would have no problem with their support of him but I'm not hearing or seeing that.

I support Hillary IN PART because she is a woman, but she is a woman who fights for the rights of women. Hillary has fought for equal pay for women, for women's health care, for the morning after pill, etc.

What has Obama really done to help Blacks and Muslims?
