I am really concerned about having a president that  his name sounds like he is a foreigner, I find it hard to say President Obama ( Read more... )

this is the funniest post I've read all day - I really appreciate it. I needed the laugh.

Just so you know, the salary for every congress person is $169,300 per year. Maybe we should start voting for them based on age too?

On the other hand, if we voted for McCain and he died in office, I'm guessing the cost of a presidential burial and memorial might be quite in excess of the yearly presidential salary of 400k.

And on the subject of foreigner names - I agree! I can't believe we had guys with such crazy foreign sounding names:
Millard Fillmore
Martin Van Buren
Ulysses S. Grant

Bring back Crazy Horse, Pocahontas and Sitting Bull - now those are AMERICAN names.

I am so glad you enjoyed my post and got such a good laugh. I did not post it to be funny tho. Maybe because I am so much older, I look at things
so differently.

if you want to talk about honesty in voting... cam_ray October 9 2008, 14:26:17 UTC
YOU need to use intelligence when voting.

you should be checking out all of McCain's lies. he is very dishonest. http://politicalticker.blogs.cnn.com/category/fact-check/

we've already been paying McCain his whole life. did you know that? he was in the Navy, crashed a plane onto a carrier and killed a lot of people. he broke under torture and gave the enemy information. did you know that? if you disliked Bush so much why on earth would you vote for someone who is worse than he is just because you don't like Barack Obama's name???

I know the real reason you're not going to vote for Obama and I think it's stupid and quite frankly, it really pisses me off. You grew up in a different generation and can't accept someone who doesn't look exactly like you.

Yesterday the news was reporting statements that Obama and McCain gave that
were not correct.
Yes, I knew all those things you stated about McCain.
Yes, I will vote for McCain, mainly because of his maturity.
Ibama is much too young and hasn't been in Washington long enough
to be president.
