But Bush is such a divider. Plus, his party stole the election. That would turn off at least half of the country right there, to answering his call. I don't know how in depth Bush's call to service was.

I know he acted like he was serious in solving a lot of problems with his Faith-based Initiatives, but if you read about the inside workings of that part of the administration, it's pretty well known that the administration just used those well-intentioned pastors and supports and left them out to dry.

Why am I even comparing Bush to Obama?

Moral authority and ethical character are the essential elements in credibility for leadership to attract the trust of a nation. Many politicians lack these two qualities. Barack certainly carries these qualities, not just according to those who support him but even those who say are going to vote for others. They might still change their mind.

People are coming to see Oprah, just like a train wreck, you stop, look, and keep going, doesn’t mean they will vote for obama? The saddest part of this is that Oprah is using her TV viewers that supported her show because she has praised herself as being opposed race bias and especially gender discrimination, NOW LOOK AT HER, completely the opposite. We are witnessing the true Oprah Winphrey. I can tell you as a faithful oprah viewer, I will no longer be interested in anything that is connected to oprah... She just put women back 50 years and black women back 100 years! PLEASE Wise up IOWA /NH ladies! This is about the safety and security for ALL our children, their education and most importantly their health care. Shame on you Oprah for selling out your supporters...We adored who we thought you were…

Who or what group of people has he managed? What has he ever done? Why would you put your trust and vote into his hands during this difficult time in our country? What solutions does he have for immigration, economy and war ? My questions are asked honestly, I hope I get honest answers by his supporters.

what is up with the crowd!? they look dead. speech should have been given to those beyond their college years, who know the real world realities for finding meaning in their lives.

NPR's distorted summary of BO's position | Report to Admin

By Peter from Switzerland Dec 5th 2007 at 9:43 pm EST

This comes from NPR in the aftermath of the Democrat's recent debate at NPR. (Audio only: Link )

"Debate Check: Behind Democrats' Responses" ( Link )

In the summery of Barack Obama's statement about Chinese toys NPR writes:

(quote)
Another key issue in the debate was over China's export of unsafe goods.

Sen. Obama had the strongest proposal, arguing that the U.S. should ban all imports of toys from China. Others said they would never buy Chinese-made goods for their own children or grandchildren. (end of quote)

NPR then continues to claim these facts (not exclusively targeted at BO):

(quote)
So far, in 2007, far fewer than 1/100th of 1 percent of China's toys exports to the U.S. have been recalled. A majority of the recalled toys had U.S.-made design problems, not Chinese-made manufacturing problems. The few children who are known to have been made sick swallowed magnets that separated from the toy (clothes for a doll in one instance). After press reports blaming China circulated for weeks, Mattel finally apologized to its Chinese contractors and acknowledged that Chinese factories were not at fault in this particular recall.

In short, it's hard to see exactly why this issue has risen to the level of such intense presidential-candidate scrutiny. China does make about 80 percent of U.S. toys.

A total ban on Chinese-made toy exports would probably mean severe shortages of toys in the U.S. for some time, as capacity is built elsewhere. In times of severe shortage, markets generally become so distorted that black markets appear and safety standards disappear. Banning Chinese-made toys would almost certainly lead to a huge rise in unsafe toys. (end of quote)

I resent this presentation very much for nowhere have I heard Obama say anything in such an absolute tone like in the above summary.

I have re-listened to that part of the debate, starting at 34:10 and ending at the end of the first hour of the debate.

Obama starts speaking his mind at 36:20 about differences in leverage. He continues at 42:45 about how to level the playing field. At 43:25 he says:

(quote)
I would say: toys cannot come in. Food: we will have our own safety inspectors on the ground. Japan does that right now. ... Unless you meet our inspection standards you cannot ship into. (end of quote)

How do we set the record straight?

Re: NPR's distorted summary of BO's position | Report to Admin

By Yang Dec 6th 2007 at 12:28 am EST

Hi, I posted this somewhere else, too, but this is how I feel about it.

I'm concerned about the framing of China policy. While Barack has remained the most level-headed, I'm concerned that voters are going to be egged on to favor whoever is the most aggressive towards China.

As NPR people said, less than .01% of the recalls of toys were from China, and 80% of all the toys are from China. Furthermore, the vast majority of problems has been design errors by American companies, not Chinese manufacturers. I don't know if Obama really meant that we need to halt the imports of all toy's from China, but I hope not.

I am very alarmed by things that Clinton and Biden said about confronting China about human rights. The fact is that the Chinese people are distrustful of American intentions because America supports many dictators, has Guantanamo, and invaded Iraq. The fact is that while China is still a one-party system, that party is not unified enough to truly be an "authoritarian government" and it is not even close to being a dictatorship.

This is not to say that there should not be reforms. There are many problems - growing income inequality, environmental degredation, underdeveloped judicial system, representation, tax system, health care costs, education costs. The truth is that many Chinese leaders would love for the US to work cooperatively with them to solve environmental problems, establish health standards, improve working conditions, and even make democratic reforms. However, the leadership in China is fluid and if the US gets confrontational, the hardliners will gain credibility and power in China. The next president's attitude towards China is extremely important. Yes, there are problems with China's policy towards Tibet and towards Taiwan, but there are problems with US policy, too. Biden says that being confrontational with Iran causes distrust with the Iranian people. Well, then why would it work with China?

The American public is very uninformed about the true nature of modern China. Actually, Mike Gravel always sounds very outlandish, but he's right about China. They are not a military threat, and they are not even really an economic threat. Obama has a balanced view, but it sounds like he needs to do some more homework. He has the best foreign policy advisors, though.

Re: NPR's distorted summary of BO's position | Report to Admin

By Yang Dec 6th 2007 at 12:31 am EST

I think the US and China can work cooperatively, but the public needs to be informed. I am hoping Barack Obama will help inform the public about the real issues with China. The truth is that after many years of isolation and distrust of other nations, Chinese leaders and the people have finally embraced bipartisan agreements and is embracing international standards. They feel that this policy has largely paid off in the past 20 years. The US should be encouraging that sentiment, and leading by example, by investing in clean energy, higher emissions standards, better health care system in America, and making democracy strong in America. Not by being confrontational and declaring China a human rights violator, etc.

The Chinese people are very disappointed in America's decision to invade Iraq. Also, the US itself has many civil rights issues. Something like 50% of all AA males are in prison. What moral high ground does the US have to declare China a human rights abuser? In contrast, they were supportive of the first Gulf War because in that case, Saddam invaded Kuwait.

Right now, the sentiment in China is that the Chinese people are playing catchup with the US. If the US is not motivated to fix its own human rights problems and environmental problems and financial problems, it is very hard to convince China that they need to do it. That is something Barack has spoken about as well.

Obama would agree with the above blogs. He has said we don't have a leg to stand on where human rights are concerned when we don't observe them ourselves.

When the Abu Grabbe situation came out I felt physically and spiritually ill for weeks. Some of our best military did too. It should NEVER have happened. Only could it have happened under the auspices of the current administration. [I hope.] It was as Pogo said, [cartoon character years ago] "We met the enemy; and he was us!"

It's funny, it's easier for me to go canvassing than it is to talk to all of my friends about it...

I started with canvassing, and then graduated to phone banking, and now I'm getting a little more ballsy with my friends. We all have our learning curves...

Also, I've been pleasantly surprised by the people I've talked to while phone banking. Even people who can't give any time to volunteer themselves often thank you profusely for everything you're doing for the campaign. It startled me the first time it happened... I had called a stranger, and they spoke to me so genuinely and thankfully!

I would like to tell a positive story to get our minds off the relentless trolling on our wonderful blog. I have been trying to involve a young AA man in the Obama campaign. He has been livng with us for the past six years ( a former student, he was pretty much homeless, so he is part of our family now) He has been reluctant, but he went to the Countdown to Change in Boston last week, somehow got picked to stand with a group behind Barack on stage, got to meet him and shake his hand. He called me right after and thanked me for giving him this "transformational experience." He signed up to canvass the AA communities in Boston, and has already convinced 3 of his friends to vote for Obama. He says, "He is legit (slang) He HAS to win." He is so impressed with him, his "crew," his whole organizaton. He has never voted before and now he wants to become a community organizer, "because Barack was." I am very happy and it is just another testament to the power of Barack Obama to inspire and lead!!

I know here in Florida a lot of AA people in the commnunity I live in are very excited about Barack Obama.

The support is there -- to be honest, I think folks are so busy working, and tending to their day to day lives -- that the election is not a priority at the momnent.

As we get closer to the primaries you will see more and more enthusiasm.

The support is there Cilla -- maybe just not as visible as you may expect. As you know I am AA and I know there are thousands more that support Barack Obama too.
