I don't give a packing sheet about US politics since I am not an American in the first place. At this moment when the US election is fast approaching, the intensity of political campaigns have been raised by these two US presidential candidates. Statistics count that Obama is in lead and most probably will win in the US president's chair.
Who is Barack Hussein Obama?
Barack Hussein Obama II (pronounced /bəˈrɑːk hʊˈseɪn oʊˈbɑːmə/; born August 4, 1961) born in Honolulu Hawaii, USA, is the junior United States Senator from Illinois and presidential nominee of the Democratic Party in the 2008 United States presidential election.
Obama is the first African American to be nominated by a major political party for president.[1] A graduate of Columbia University and Harvard Law School, where he served as president of the Harvard Law Review, Obama worked as a community organizer and practiced as a civil rights attorney before serving three terms in the Illinois Senate from 1997 to 2004. He taught constitutional law at the University of Chicago Law School from 1992 to 2004. Following an unsuccessful bid for a seat in the U.S. House of Representatives in 2000, he announced his campaign for the U.S. Senate in January 2003. After a primary victory in March 2004, Obama delivered the keynote address at the Democratic National Convention in July 2004. He was elected to the Senate in November 2004 with 70 percent of the vote.
As a member of the Democratic minority in the 109th Congress, he helped create legislation to control conventional weapons and to promote greater public accountability in the use of federal funds. He also made official trips to Eastern Europe, the Middle East, and Africa. During the 110th Congress, he helped create legislation regarding lobbying and electoral fraud, climate change, nuclear terrorism, and care for returned U.S. military personnel. Obama announced his presidential campaign in February 2007, and was formally nominated at the 2008 Democratic National Convention with Delaware senator Joe Biden as his running mate.
He is a member of Illinois State from the 13th district and running under Democratic party VS his opponent McCain as Republican. His wife Michelle with their two daughters Malia Ann and Natasha. They live in Kenwood, Chicago, Illinois. Obama is a lawyer by profession and a politician at the same time. His religion is United Church of Christ.
Why I posted this? I really don't have political inclination and I am not even knowledgeable in our local politics counting that I also am not involving myself in school's student government ie. not giving votes or any participation to student government. I just want to tell others that I am disappointed to many politicians who are totally.......... never mind... I am not promoting him neither his counter part John McCain coz both are...never mind... Thanks to all....

Hahahaha! Got your point. Both have loopholes. But, Obama said so many promises and the economy in the US is in turmoil yet He blame it on Bush. The financial In-charge in US Economy were OBAMA's ally and under his party. If Obama wins, those people who made the economy in the US down will still be there in the position. Now, people here believe his words. And he is winning. Let us talk about politics once He is in power and observe.
If Philippine politics is dirty, how about US? 911 is absolutely an inside job and point their fingers to the terrorists... and everything.......totally madness. pweh! the world is getting worst but we cannot see it. We are moving toward a communist world. Republicans and Democratics, they are just titles and if you sum them up will lead to a communist government..
d baya pud....US is a good country and uplift Humanitywhich is really our goal right? 911 happend because the government is so lax ra kaayo about what they intercept, abi nila dili lagi maka harm...tapos, ang involved pa jud are those immigrants from kabalo naka asa sila gikan nga country but been living here in the US, naa naman gani family ang uban...
ang suma total, buotan ra kaayo ang US sa mga tawo nga ila gadawaton to enter the US.... research william ayers...he bomb the capitol building and pentagon...acquited due to technicalities and bu the way, a friend of Obama...
Yes, there will always be good intentions... and also there is something that you did not know in 911.. ( i dont know if you know, maybe) there is an inside job and so the plan of destroying that building was totally successful because of that insider. its not only the government was so lax (or just lax)
hmmm...i respect your opinion but, i have my share of point of view
