" It was just before John McCain's last run at the presidential nomination in 2000 that my husband and I vacationed in Turtle Island in Fiji with John McCain, Cindy, and their children, including Bridget (their adopted Bangladeshi child). It was not our intention, but it was our misfortune to be in close quarters with John McCain for almost a week....."

To all ignorant Trolls,
However, if no words are underlined in red, that does not mean that no words are misspelled, because the spell checker does not check for grammar and context.
For example, you could safely type "Those democrats, there heads are up there asses."
Now it would NOT show up in red that you misspelled "their" as "there" twice.
Let that be a lesson to you all.
Piece be with you.
I was lucky enough to be 30 feet from our next POTUS at the Xcel Energy Center in St. Paul last night to hear his speech. I waited in line for 6 hours and I would do it again in a heartbeat. Both Barack and Michelle had a glow about them that was undeniable. Never having seen them in person before, I cannot say how much of that glow is always there and how much of it had to do with the greatness of the occasion. Having watched many rallies on the web, finally going to one of these (and a special one at that) was incredibly intense. For a 47-yr old man to feel like a kid at Christmas again is amazing, but that is the best way I can describe it. In fact I felt that way all day yesterday and today. A true contact high. I send my love, congratulations, and thanks to all of you out there who have been my electronic Obama companions for the past several months. And I look forward to more.
Simulated Town Hall Question for Hillary
Questioner: “Could you please explain how difficult it is for someone as highly educated and socially enlightened as yourself to rely so heavily on support from voters who generally are much less educated and much more likely to hold racial and other stereotypes as compared to supporters of Barack Obama ?”
Most of the media that you watch or read are owned by large corporations with vested interests.
The media is so concerned with "vetting" the candidates, but who is vetting them ?
It is up to us to question everything.
Even those who seem to be professional and well-respected:
What is their biography?
What do we really know about them ?
Where did they go to school and what did they study?
Who is their pastor, their spouse, their mentor, their financial supporter?
Who gave them the right to tell us what America thinks, or what we should think ?
Don’t believe any more that they are there to protect your interests or to report the straight facts.
Investigate and think for yourself, or you are handing over your rights to them.
Lookin' for a leader To bring our country home Re-unite the red white and blue Before it turns to stone
Lookin' for somebody Young enough to take it on Clean up the corruption And make the country strong
Walkin' among our people There's someone who's straight and strong To lead us from desolation And a broken world gone wrong
Someone walks among us And I hope he hears the call And maybe it's a woman Or a black man after all
Yeah maybe it's Obama But he thinks that he's too young Maybe it's Colin Powell To right what he's done wrong
America has a leader But he's not in the house He's walking here among us And we've got to seek him out
Yeah we've got our election But corruption has a chance We got to have a clean win To regain confidence
America is beautiful But she has an ugly side We're lookin' for a leader In this country far and wide We're lookin' for a leader With the great spirit on his side
-Neil Young, from Living with War
Go here and find some other good things:
Thank you for waking me and millions from our cynicism. Thank you for lighting something inside of us that was out for too long. Thank you for reminding us of our commonalities and what it feels like to unite with others who look or speak differently, and how this brings a strength that cannot be achieved with guns or money. Thank you for showing not only us but the world what we are. Thank you for showing us courage. Thank you Barack and Michelle for making the decision to do this. We will do what we can to change the vote tomorrow and in the coming months. But whatever happens, I believe that you have already changed the course of this country. Let's not stop this train.
