    Wake up people. Obama will stage a fake terror attack like 911 and use it as pretext to wage war on iran/pakistan. U wait and see.

    The secret to political speeches: win over the hearts and minds of the people. Its not WHAT u say. Its HOW u say it.

    As long as one is beautiful and eloquent, one can convince the public the penguin is a giraffe. And sadly, many still for the same trick.

    Obama, instead of making economy ur objective, how about makin human lives ur priorities huh?

    Obama is another tool of American corporate greed.

    Don’t be fooled.

    i love obama he’s awesome

    but as much as i love him he is a dead man walking

    there will always be people that hate him and want to kill him for the colour of his skin

    it’s a colour you shouldn’t judge people by there colour ,it’s just a colour, it’s what inside that matters

    whoa, if you want to be a superpower, accept the fact that other countries have a right to an opinion regarding your politics.

    you twat

    thats a good one sunshine. i never said you didn’t have a right to your opinion, i’m just telling you it sucks. stop putting a negative spin on something positive. you my friend, haven’t lived in the US for the past 8 years. this has been the shitiest times in this countries history. when you are forced to watch your fellow americans jump out of a burning building to there death, the war, the economy and all the other bullshit you would be angry too. let us have our fun while we can.
