Being a straight guy, I can’t really say much about this topic, however the internet has been buzzing about the new photos of Barack Obama shirtless. Obama spent a few days in Hawaii with his family last week, and has spent time on the Island vacationing in the past. Here are a few shirtless Obama photos we were able to pull up.
Note that Obama is not the first President to be photographed without a shirt on. Others were Ford, Clinton, and Reagan. Obama thought seems to be in the best shape of the 3, but also is the youngest at the time.
Now only if Mr. Obama could get the rest of America to stay in as good shape as he is at 46 years old. Maybe we should all pick up a basketball, like Barack does in his spare time.
Barack Obama Made history on November 5th. Here is how the various major US newspapers saw the historic moment. Below are the newspaper front pages of various US editions.:
Not sure if anyone of you saw the Barack The Magic Negro Youtube video, but it was s slightly funny I guess. It’s getting a ton of buzz throughout the internet this morning, but personally I don’t really “get it”. I get the video and its message, I just don’t get whats so spreadable about it. The video is supposed to be an Al Sharpton campaign video called Barack Obama the “Magic Negro” because he’s not an “authentic” negro. I don’t know, I just seem to think that too many people are making this election a racial one when race should not play an issue in this election at all. Having said this, that is clearly impossible.
Below if the Barack the Magic Negro video. Feel free to comment:
Well it looks like a whole bunch of Hillary Clinton supports are now for John Mccain. There is even a website for this group of people at: hcsfjm.com. Basically these people believe that Hillary Clinton was a far superior candidate then Barack Obama was, and they feel that Obama’s experience is not on par with either other candidate (Clinton nor Mccain). This is definitely true in my opinion, but I feel that America for the most part is looking more for change then for experience.
Here is the video that basically shows Hillary and others endorsing John Mccain over Barack Obama:
Some of these points are really good ones. Obama’s experience in the Senate is almost non-existant, while Mccain has plenty of experience. We will see how many of Clinton’s supporters will change sides and support Mccain when some of the early polls come out.
Here is a poll done by Gallup.com:
More of these graphs and details can be found at gallup.com.
When it appear that Barack Obama won the nomination for the democratic party on Tuesday, I really believe he would be the one to beat come November. However after reading some of these studies, I think John Mccain might just have an upper hand. What do you think?
Ok I know this is a bit extreme, but to me it seems as though Hillary Clinton has sided more with John McCain then with Barack Obama. Both Clintons (Hillary and Bill) have stated their support for John McCain whether intentionally or not.
Hillary stated the following on Tuesday:
“Senator McCain will bring a lifetime of experience to the campaign, I will bring a lifetime of experience and Senator Obama will bring a speech that he gave in 2002,”
Not exactly something to say to support your Democratic Opponent, Hillary. Is it?
Also back on March 8, Hillary Clinton stated the following:
“I think that is a significant difference. I think that since we now know Senator McCain will be the nominee for the Republican Party, national security will be front and center in this election. We all know that….. And I think it is imperative that each of us be able to demonstrate we can cross the commander-in-chief threshold. And I believe I have done that. Certainly, Senator McCain has done that. And you will have to ask Senator Obama with respect to his candidacy.”
Again it seems as though she is saying that both her and John McCain have the ability to cross the commander-in-chief threshold, but questions Barack Obama’s ability to do so.
Both these comments can be seen and heard in the following video:
On top of this. Back in January of this year, Bill Clinton stated the following:
“She (Hillary) and John McCain are very close. They always laugh that if they wound up being the nominees of their party, it would be the most civilized election in American history, and they’re afraid they’d put the voters to sleep because they like and respect each other.”
So, as the election draws closer and John McCain looks for a running mate, maybe the search has ended! Clinton for McCain! McCain / Clinton in ’08!
