John McCain is running on history. Obviously, the part of his life that is most influential to his thinking is that which he spent in a Vietnamese prison camp. There is no denying that his time there was probably so awful that many of us would have said or done almost anything to stop the torture and abuse. It is certainly to his credit that he did not. His stand against the current administration on the torture of detainees of the war on terror is a strong statement and is highly honorable However, noble performance during captivity does not mean that he automatically deserves or has the judgment and breadth of knowledge necessary to run this country. He constantly referred to Ronald Reagan’s time in office and his policies and conveyed a sense of the past being more influential to his thinking than is the future. He seems to not be aware of how we are doing out here, where people work for a living, do their best to educate their children and keep food on the table and gas in the car. His long history of supporting deregulation of the financial and other sectors of the economy, to the advantage of wealthy individuals and corporations, has contributed to an economy that today teeters on the edge of a meltdown.
Barack Obama focused his comments on the plight of the Average American in today’s world. The USA faces a damaged and abused economy, the world’s vision of America is to many people that of an arrogant and selfish nation and at this time diplomacy rather than saber-rattling and warmongering is so obviously what this country needs to reestablish our credibility across the globe. Senator Obama seems focused on the future and conveys a sense of understanding what we as American are going through and a sense of where we fit into the new 21st century global economic and political world. His background is one of hard work and service to his country. He is strong with respect to going after those that would do us harm, but is sensitive to why we have become a nation that is not respected by many others. He is committed to diplomacy, willing to talk and work out our common problems with leaders of other nations and he understands that one of humanity’s most urgent needs is to develop energy sources that are not only renewable, but that do not cause damage to our imperiled planet.
I called my 87 year old mother after the debate to get a sense of her reaction. She has been engaged in this and previous political campaigns and even at her age, she commented that Senator McCain seems so focused on the past that he is not what we, as a nation, need right now to confront our future. She understands the importance of electing someone with a new view and understanding of the world and how it works today.
The past is what it was. The future calls us to better times. Barack Obama is the candidate that understands that and once elected he will lead us through our difficult present into a more positive future.
Over the last seven years we have witnessed the administration of G W Bush exploit the fears of the people of America with deceptions, misrepresentations and outright lies. The manipulation of data used to justify the invasion of Iraq is well documented. Our constitution has been trampled upon by the president and his team. The United States has been disgraced by policies that allowed torture of detainees and virtually destroyed another country that had never posed a specific threat to the USA. Thousands of American sons and daughters have died as a result of poor decisions with little planning and unstated goals and unknown thousands of Iraqi citizens were displaced, killed and suffered through years of unbelievable horror.
Our economy has come dangerously close to a financial meltdown as a result of the Republican pushed policies of deregulation that allowed lenders and powerful financial institutions to make huge profits through unscrupulous lending practices at the expense of unknowing and uninformed borrowers. We have seen long established firms collapse due to mismanagement and greed, only to be buoyed up by the government at costs to the American people that may take decades to repay. Huge profits made by the oil companies are at historic levels. Meanwhile, the working people of America have seen their good jobs disappearing at a rapid pace as companies are given tax breaks while sending their work overseas. We have seen the value of our dollar decline and the buying power of our wages shrink.
Now the Republican Party has asked us to give it another four years by electing John McCain and Sarah Palin. John McCain, having suffered atrocities at the hands of his captors during the Vietnam War is regarded as a war hero. Sarah Palin is a self described “hockey mom” and claims to be a “maverick” that can shake up Washington and put things right. John McCain has the audacity to accept monthly Social Security payments while being paid in excess of 160K as a senator and while his wife’s company made over $6 million in 2007. Sarah Palin, as she is finally “looked at” seems to have a history of giving good state jobs to unqualified long time friends and of firing people with whom she has personal disputes. Her stands on women’s rights are unconscionable. This all sounds likeit would lead to a repeat or even an enhancement of the cronyism and greed demonstrated so well by the Bush Administration. These two are not the mavericks they claim to be. We can't afford four more years of Bush policies.
The greed and lies so clearly at the center of the thinking of many prominent folks in the Republican Party have made us less safe and more vulnerable to outside forces over which we have no control. They try to deny the effects of humanity’s activities on the planet. They pass tax cuts that benefit the huge multinational corporations and a few of the wealthiest of Americans while leaving the working people of America with less to spend on life’s pleasures that at any time in recent history. They now have stooped to outright lies in their advertising by telling us that the tax plan of Senator Obama will end up costing average Americans higher taxes while virtually every financial and tax expert has stated the opposite.
Senator Barack Obama has plans to reduce our dependence on foreign oil, to encourage companies to keep their jobs here in the United States, to reduce taxes for average Americans. He has the strength and will to do what is necessary to keep Americans safe and has demonstrated the wisdom that going to war to prove some point is not a smart decision. He is endorsed by virtually all labor focused and educational organizations as he is recognized by many financial analysts to have the best plans to revive our economy. His vision of the future will motivate us all as citizens and will help revive our nation’s soul. America must move beyond the divisiveness that is so strongly promoted by the Republican Party and focus on the message of unity and shared purpose that is promoted by Senator Obama and the Democratic Party. Somehow, over the years, the Republican Party has been able to convince many working Americans that they have their interests in mind, while in fact the tax plans and financial policies demonstrate exactly the opposite.
I plead with working Americans to look at the results of the past seven years and seriously make an informed decision whether the policies encouraged by this party are those that have helped you in any way!
We need to elect a president that encourages cooperation, diplomacy and unity of purpose rather than one who encourages division, deceit, and makes careless political decisions.
Don’t get fooled again America.
Talk, Live and Vote Obama/Biden.
Come one, come all. Bring your spouse or friend or neighbor!
Our own Obama Office will have an Open House this Thursday, July 24 from 6 - 8 PM. It is just down from the Chase Bank office on Sandusky St. Come on down and share stories and enthusiasm. We are just over 100 days from election day and we still have lots of people to talk to and educate. We really need to make this happen. We NEED Barack to be our next President. I've never felt so strongly about a candidate. The world needs us to make this happen. Please come and help us organize Delaware to win in November.

There are articles all over today about "talks" between rivals and "Terrorist Backed" or "Terrorist Backing" governments and organizations. Seems the rest of the world (besides GWB and his hateful crew) are all about discussing problems with your enemies. Shameful Bush! Shameful McBush!
This is moving amazingly fast.
As Bush/McCain start attacks already at Barack Obama and from foreign soil. Barack responds and we are suddenly immersed in one of the great themes of Obama’s philosophy; That we need to talk to people we are not getting along with, and on a level that means something.
The Bush/McCain direction of confrontation, bullying if I can put it bluntly, their way around the world and demanding people do things their way or “we won’t even talk to you” is so wrong.
Obama seems to be willing to address the leaders of the world as an equal, with big guns, no less, but as an equal rather than as the “King of the World”, an image that GWB has somehow managed to obtain. We are, after all, only 1/20, yes, that is only 5% of the population of the world.
In these days, we need a leader who thinks and understands GLOBALLY!
Only by communicating with and understanding the views of our adversaries are we able to work out our problems without blowing each other to smithereens!
Obama is the only one.
It will be interesting to watch this debate on "World Vision" unfold.
It is appearing more and more like Senator Hillary Clinton is positioning herself to be John McCain’s running mate!
Her hawkish statements on Iran and her promotion of the absurd “gas tax holiday” along with her ceaseless personal attacks on the character and patriotism of Senator Barack Obama amount to “party treason”. Her unwillingness to move aside in this race, which is mathematically impossible for her to win without disenfranchising many if not all of Senator Obama’s supporters is damaging the party's possibilities in November. Her divisiveness is well documented, and it is becoming clearer and clearer that her campaign is more focused of Hillary Clinton’s self promotion than it is on the interest of our sad and struggling country.
It is impossible to deny the fact that another four years of Bushlike policies would be a disaster to our country’s status across the globe as well as our economy here at home. It is imperative that the Democratic candidate for President of the United States wins this upcoming election.
Time and time again, across America, it has been demonstrated that once a body of people hear and see and listen to the message of Barack Obama, the fears, biases and reluctance of the political body to vote for him dissolve. It is an undeniable truth that Governor Ed Rendell of Pennsylvania stated, and was admonished for, that there are people in this country that will not vote for a black candidate. Unfortunately, this is still true. However, the number of people that think this way is shrinking. At the same time, the number of people in this country who are less concerned with the race of a person than with their character and their ideas is increasing. It is clearly, to some extent, a generational phenomena, hence, Senator Clinton’s better showing among older voters in recent primaries.
Senator Obama has presented a view of America that provides hope and excitement for the future. He promotes an agenda that encourages us as individuals to support and promote our country; one that will allow the country to grow, prosper and become again a beacon of hope and promise to people, not only of our own country, but to the rest of the world as well. Senator Clinton also presents an agenda of hope, yet she does it in a mean-spirited and divisive way, which has never worked in the long run and is certainly doomed to fail again.
Never stop talking about Senator Obama! Make sure all your friends, neighbors and acquaintances know that you support his positivity and policies. Encourage them to learn about him. Read his books. With undying support and energy for his program, we can change this country and change the world.
I’ve been reading the NYT this morning about how far Obama can and wants to go in “attacking” Hillary Clinton.
I do believe there has to be some vetting of the overpumped statements of readiness and “meaningful “experience that she has continued to make. People swung to her on the stupid fear factor with this last round of elections. And she has the gall to call Obama’s tactics of opening questions about her (tax forms, transparency, funding of the campaign with foreign money?) out of the “Rove Book” while her campaign uses fear to motivate voters. It is offensive.
Anyway, I think his desire to stay above it all is wonderful. I do believe though that he has to make statements of fact, that are not personal, but are revealing in a way that they contradict and refute the statements she is making about preparedness and “meaningful” experience.
I think he should get it out there, and prominently, that he has more time serving in elected office then she has. Tell people about the good and “meaningful” legislation that he has authored. Remind them that this is a choice between a return to past promises or to an advancement into the new world.
This is subtle, but meaningful. I feel this is the next step of recognition of the fact that “all men (and women of course) are created equal". This past administration has been so dismissive and evasive of following the law. Their decisions and direction are not conducive to peace in the world, nor are they respectful of traditional and important American values. Their choice to “punish” leaders of other great countries by not speaking to them is absurd and is passé. Their choice to allow torture is horrendous and abhorrent.I see Obama as the man who can convince Americans that that statement needs to extend beyond the borders of the United States. It is a statement that has to extend around the world. To Mexico and Canada, our neighbors, but also to the people in the Middle East, Africa and Indonesia, Russia and the European Union, and in doing so can convince the rest of the world that Americans are good people. He speaks of restoring Habeas Corpus, as a point of respect to each individual in the world. He speaks of his willingness to sit with, speak with and discuss problems and conflicts with leaders of other countries in the world, whether friend or foe as a point of respect for other countries of the world.
I have a sense that his presidency would be strong and would finally be the one that would be able to help quell the Palestinian/Israeli situation. Out of his respect for other people and for other Peoples, he would be able to do so much good for the world. This feeling is strong and solid. My gut tells me it would work. I somehow understood from the start, how this attack on and destruction of Iraq by the mighty US Military Machine would be a disaster. I understood how the world would react and that it would be a terrible legacy and an unmanageable and irresponsible expense to the US, both in lives and dollars. I understood it would be a diversion from the real people (the hoodlum Taliban and Al Qaida) that caused us harm and want us gone. Obama understood it too. He was one of a few that had the understanding OF THE WAY THE WORLD WORKS to know how it would turn out. They say it is quieting (Iraq), but I expect it is still simmering close to boil. Iraq, what a sad People that is now.
Obama’s judgment on the Iraq war is central to this all. It is one of the big reasons we find our country entering a recession. It is all linked. Bin Ladens wishes to bankrupt the USA is working to some extent. It’s all related, and If Clinton would have been in the White House she would have done the same thing as Bush did, maybe. At least she voted that way.
I don’t know if these ideas would make any sense to the campaign. I’m sure they have the most wonderful minds in “image” helping. The people still to vote and the rest of us that already have just need to know that she is not all she says she is. This message has to get out. Just because they have heard her name for the last 16 years does not mean she has 16 years of meaningful, real foreign affairs or legislative experience. It’s the vision that matters, the attitude and the strength and the willingness to work with others to solve big problems. That’s what Obama brings.
Three mailers attacking Obama, all paid for by Hillary Clinton for President- "The Barack Obama Health Care Plan Fails to Cover Every American, Just what the HMOs and pharmaceutical companies want." 2 more hit pieces slamming Obama for high gasoline prices and "predatory credit interest rates." The mailers about credit cards and gas prices say the Illinois senator voted for consumer-unfriendly interest rate and energy bills in 2005. The gas mailer says, "Energy company employees donated over $650,000 to Barack Obama and got what they wanted." Both mailers conclude, "American families can't afford Barack Obama."
Barack should hold these 3 mailers up in the rallys/town halls and say, "SHAME ON YOU, HILLARY CLINTON!"...and then refute them, one by one...much cheaper than another ad. Give him the flyers to hold up.
A new poll done by Reuters, C-SPAN and the Houston Chronicle (2/26-2/28) shows that Obama trails Clinton in Ohio by only 2 points and has a substantial 6 point lead in Texas! The time is now for us in Ohio to show what a good organization can accomplish when we are motivated by an inspiring leader. See the report on the new poll below.

http://news.enquirer.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20080227/NEWS01/302270009
Obama continues to stay on the high road, discussing issues and the differences between him and the others while not making vile and negative remarks.
This is just one more reason why I support and am working hard to help Barack Obama become our nominee and our next President. He is a class act all around. It is also the reason, I'm sure, that he is reluctant to make a firm comittment to public finance money for the General Election. He knows how many Republicans abuse the rules that govern 527 groups, which prohibit advocacy for a specific candidate or defaming another specific candidate directly, but THEY DO IT ANYWAY! You can't trust them to play by the rules! Remember the "Swift Boaters" and how they attacked Kerry!! Stay with Obama, Stay on the high road. America will respond and he will be our president and he will enhance the world's view of America and help restore the American Dream!
There's the Beef
By Steven Pearlstein washingtonpost.com
Friday, February 22, 2008
During the course of our endless presidential campaigns, lots of silly things are said by the candidates and the press. But few are more ridiculous than the idea that Barack Obama is just an empty suit. We're talking here about a former president of the Harvard Law Review. Have you ever met the people who get i nto Harvard Law School? You might not choose them as friends or lovers or godparents to your children, but -- trust me on this -- there aren't many lightweights there. And Obama was chosen by all the other overachievers as top dog. Compared with the current leader of the free world, this guy is Albert Einstein. Given his youth and relatively short time in government, it's fair to ask if Obama has the wisdom and experience to be president. But it's quite anot her to suggest that he has no vision, no program, no specifics. Let's begin with the fact that he has written two books (all by himself, unlike a certain other candidate). The first offers a compelling personal narrative that, for some reason, is dismissed as puffery by a presumptive Republican nominee who first ran for office on the strength of his compelling personal narrative. The second book is a thoroughly readable, intelligent and well-reasoned discourse on politics and policy that offers a fresh perspective on a wide range of issues. Obama has participated in 18 televised presidential debates in which he has managed to hold his own not only with Hillary the Wonkette, but also with the Senate's leading light on foreign affairs, a former United Nations ambassador and a former vice presidential candidate who was a skilled trial lawyer. I watched most of the debates, and while I didn't agree with everything he said, I don't recall thinking that Obama was in over his head. Now that Obama is sprinting toward the finish line in the Democratic marathon, hi s opponents are suddenly asking, "Where's the beef?" If it's beef you like, all you have to do is go to http://barackobama.com, where you will find a refrigerator case packed with prime policy meat. That may come as something of a surprise to you, considering how utterly lacking in substance the reporting and analysis has been over the last year. But it's all there -- as much as or more than is offered by other candidates and certainly as much as any voter would require. There is, for example, the 11-page, single-spaced energy plan that features a cap-and-trade system that would require businesses to purchase credits for 100 percent of their carbon emissions, along with a requirement that all ele ctric companies produce a quarter of their juice from renewable resources. Obama would also invest $15 billion annually -- a big chunk of change, even by federal standards -- in biofuels and other forms of clean energy. He wants to change the way electricity rates are set to give utilities more incentives to save power rather than produce it. Those aren't uniquely Obama's ideas -- in one form or another, they've been part of the Democratic congressional agenda for years. And considering how fiercely they are opposed by industry and free-market Republicans, they aren't going to produce the kind of across-the-aisle compromise that Obama promises to deliver. But it's hardly like there's nothing there. Or perhaps you'd like to curl up with a copy of Obama's 15-page, single-spaced health-care plan, includ ing 65 footnotes. You'll find a cogent analysis of what ails the health-care system, along with the best thinking of Democratic health-care reformers on how to fix it: disease management, computerized medical records, radical reforms of the insurance market, tax subsidies for low-income families and federal reinsurance for catastrophic illness. There's even a requirement that businesses either offer health insurance to their workers or pay into a universal health-care fund. The plan would be expensive and involve a major federal intrusion into the marketplace, and there is a legitimate question as to whether the plan would work better if everyone were required by law to buy health insurance. But by any measure it is a serious plan that would win the support not only of labor but also of major parts of the business community, including hospitals and health insurers. Finally, there's the 40-plus-page economic agenda that outlines Obama's proposals for avoiding a recession, helping homeowners avoid foreclosure, restoring the rights of workers to form unions, improving public education, combating poverty and shifting the tax burden from the middle class to the upper class. Once again, Obama has borrowed liberally from the standard Democratic policy playbook, adding a few twists of his own. He's willing to gently challenge the teachers' unions on merit pay, the trial lawyers on medical malpractice and liberals on raising Social Security taxes rather than pretending there's no problem with the retirement program. But this is hardly the kind of challenge to Democratic interest-group politics that Obama's "change" rhetoric suggests. Particularly disappointing is his willingness to parrot the labor movement mantra about labor and environmental standards, which is really nothing more than protectionist code. And there's no way Obama can do all that he proposes and get anywhere close to balancing the federal budget. But such shortcomings are hardly unusual for a political campaign; the Clinton economic program is no better. And as we're all about to find out, it's far better than the thin gruel offered so far by John McCain, who, God help us, plans to bone up on economics by reading Alan Greenspan. McCain's economic program consists of extending the Bush tax cuts, cutting corporate tax rates and banning taxes on the Internet and cellphones. His "comprehensive" health-care reform program consists of two pages of platitudes with no specifics and no way to pay for itself. And while he calls for "tough choices" in reining in entitlement spending, he still hasn't found one he's willing to share with us. Barack Obama isn't a saint. He's not a savior. But in substance as well as style, he's the most impressive presidential candidate to come along in quite a while. Steven Pearlstein can be reached atpearlsteins@washpost.com.
Registered voters who have never voted in a primary before can show up and participate in the Democratic primary simply by showing up at their polling place and "publicly" requesting a Democratic ballot Those who have previously voted in Republican primaries have to "complete a statement" at the polling place that confirms their change in affiliation.These voters NEED TO BE TOLD IN ADVANCE THEY HAVE TO REQUEST A DEMOCRATIC BALLOT or their votes will be wasted as the 94,000 in CA were--http://www.californiaprogressreport.com/2008/02/about_those_940.html
This is a Letter to the Editor of the Delaware Gazette, by an Obama supporter fromn Delaware.
It is NOT my writing. I'd hate to be accused of plagiarism... :-) but I thought it was quite eloquent and meaningful and wanted to share it with you all!
OBAMA IS BEST CHOICE FOR OUR NEXT PRESIDENT
When my family and I moved to Delaware in 1999, I registered Independent. I had worked in the Defense Department during the Clinton Administration, and was a life-long Democrat. Nonetheless, leaving Washington, I felt my idealism for service was lost in a tired, partisan experience. I registered again as Democrat for primaries in 2000 to vote for Bill Bradley – though I was torn as I also liked John McCain. On March 4th, I will again vote for change and the future – for Barack Obama.
On foreign and defense policy, Senator Obama is clearly the best choice for Ohio. In his work as a community organizer in Chicago, in the Senate with Richard Lugar (R-Indiana) on nuclear proliferation, and in terms of how he has run his presidential campaign – Senator Obama inspires diverse coalitions – vital diplomatic skills. Key decisions on national security require calm and fortitude – traits that Senator Obama has demonstrated while overcoming the heat of one the most powerful political machines in American history. On Iraq, Afghanistan, terrorism and homeland defense, nuclear proliferation, trade, energy and global warming – Senator Obama’s depth of knowledge and fresh look at the world uniquely qualify him for the 21st century security environment.
Leadership on national security requires wisdom and judgment. Senator Obama’s primary opponent, Hillary Clinton, voted for and supported the war in Iraq. This judgment distracted the United States from al Qaeda and has spawned a new generation of terrorists. The war in Iraq has cost over 30,000 dead and injured soldiers. Authorizing this war cost $500 billion not spent on homeland defense, health care for seniors and children, schools, and crumbling economic infrastructure in Ohio and the country. Meanwhile, Hillary Clinton fails to acknowledge a mistake and applies the same worldview still, approving a senate resolution ceding power to George Bush to use military force against Iran.
Barack Obama opposed the war in Iraq before it was fought – arguing correctly that it was a diversion from the war on terrorism. He had the wisdom to understand what was coming and the courage to speak against it. But there is something more fundamental - Senator Obama has a detailed plan to end the Iraq war responsibly – but he also wants to change the mindset that got us into the war. And still, there is no question that as President, Barack Obama will use all the tools of American power to secure its national interests.
Democrats and like-minded registered voters should ask: who can win in November? Only Barack Obama offers a clear distinction on Iraq. Only Barack Obama can run as an agent of change for Washington. Only Barack Obama will appeal to Independent and disillusioned Republicans who are weary from tired and destructive politics from both parties. Only Barack Obama represents millions of new voters engaged in the political system for the first time – offering a clear choice between the past, and the future.

Obama Outlines Plan to Keep Ohio Jobs from Being Sent Overseas
Senator Barack Obama visited Niles, Ohio to tour a titanium plant, RTI International Metals Inc., and to meet with workers about job security and the state of the economy in Northeast Ohio. After the tour, Obama outlined his plan to help employers retain and create good jobs in Ohio and across the U.S.
“In the last year alone, 93 plants have closed in this state. And yet, year after year, politicians in Washington sign trade agreements that are riddled with perks for big corporations but have absolutely no protections for American workers,” Senator Obama said. “It’s bad for our economy, it’s bad for our country, and it will not happen when I am President.
Too many American companies are off-shoring good paying U.S. jobs—including many manufacturing jobs—and many are using overseas tax havens to avoid paying taxes here in the U.S. In 2006 alone Ohio lost 32,337 manufacturing jobs and 93 plants, according to the Manufacturers Directory. Rather than providing incentives for employers to outsource and expand their operations overseas, Barack Obama believes we should encourage corporations to be patriot employers that create good jobs with good benefits for American workers.
End Tax Breaks That Reward Companies for Shipping Jobs Overseas: Our current tax system provides incentives for U.S. multinational corporations to invest their profits overseas rather than here in America. The tax code allows these companies to defer paying taxes on the profit they make in foreign countries for as long as they keep the money abroad. Barack Obama will work to change this rule so companies can't avoid paying taxes by keeping their profits overseas indefinitely. Obama has also called for cracking down on abusive tax havens and increasing enforcement powers.
Reward Companies that Create Good Jobs Here at Home: The revenue raised from ending tax breaks that reward companies for shipping jobs overseas will be used to reduce the corporate tax rate for companies that invest in the U.S. and its workers. Obama’s “Patriot Employers” plan puts the tax code on the side of companies that treat American workers best. His proposal will reward companies that:
