**For Obama to come out tops in South Carolina, after it seemed like Hillary had it locked for a long time attests to the fact that we, as Americans, have set foot on the path toward recognizing quality as being distinct from quantity, and not being blinded by race or ethnic origin. And regarding the endorsement by the Kennedys, that's huge. Obama - the change agent - often talked about as being inexperienced now has experienced people around him to give him the completeness he deserves, while Hillary - the experienced one - still lacks the change ingredients to complete her candidacy, count ONE for Obama!

Righteousness is knocking on your door.. heed the call there is still time.
Our grandparents lay claim and bragging rights to the American Revolution and the Civil Rights Movement, our parents claim Woodstock. Our generation is still yet to stake out our claim. Every once in a life time an opportunity makes itself available for us to make history, and as young people our time is now.
We need to stake our claim as the generation that change the trajectory of American politics. We need to ascertain this as our bragging rights to our children and grandchildren. Some of you may be thinking that this is about Obama, but truly this is bigger than the man himself and we can only hope that he will put together a cadre of leaders who will share our vision and aid us in executing this bloodless revolution. "Without vision a people perish"
Throughout history there has never being a bloodless revolution. This is our opportunity to move America back to the forefront of the line. Let the entire world see that we as a people are truly a pace and trend setter, accomplishing what no other nation has ever done before. Removing the power from the elite group and putting it back in the hands of "we the people" without spilling a single drop of blood.
If you want to make your exit from mother earth without making an impact then discard this message, however, if you choose to let your memories live on, then forward this to all the people in your circle, so that they too can become a member of the bloodless revolution and claim their legacy.
Let the bloodless revolution be your American Legacy.

There's going to be big trouble if Obama gets in as President. You may think want you want, but I'll tell you he is not capable of running this country. We will have more problems than we do right now. This man is trouble, just look at him he looks like a sneak, and all his promises, I'm tired of promises. I'm voting for Hillary because I know she will definitely get us back to where we should be. NO MORE BUSHES!!!!!

Stepdance you can never step into the same stream of water twice. For all those people who want to ga back to the time when Bill was president, is a backward thinking on their part. There is no going back and you are right... NO MORE BUSH.
However, ignore the signs and you miss your opportunity.

Ouch stepdance, thats really harsh comparing Obama to Bush its a ridiculous and low attempt to garner support for hillary. I think maybe just maybe you should do some more research on Obama then make that statement. Obama is clearly not stupid.

Obama has kept his promises in the senate and he will keep them as president. Unlike Hilliary who once fought for health care only to be bought off by the lobbyist machine. With Hilliary as president very little will change.

Who cares what a druck pathetic Kennedy thinks, or who Oprah Winfrey is endorsing, or chuck Norris for that matter. Hillary clinton is the most experienced candidate there is. Madonna hasn't endorsed anyone yet. If she Barack Obama, well good for her, doesn't change my mind about Hillary and wanting her to be our next president. Grow up people. Learn about politics, get a mind of your own and don't just vote for someone because someone you like endorses them or because they are a woman or black or mormon or hispanic. Vote for them because it is the right thing and right fit for our country.

You need to grow up b/c Bill-ary doesn't have any experience. Being the wife of a President does not qualify anyone to be President. There are a lot of wives of important people that cannot replace their husbands. Do your homework next time and you'd know that Barack was correct when he said he was in politics when Hillary server on the Walmart board. She didn't agree with all of Walmart's tactics and eventually resign. Maybe that same experience will help her resign again if she differs with a world leader on whatever policy in the event she becomes President. I am the son of a CEO. I wonder if that qualifies me to be CEO. You seem to think so. You should erase your post, its embarrassing to pretend to know something.

Politics is very emotional and so many of you are expressing your emotions towards Obama and Clinton instead of facts. When emotions triumph over facts, the imminent result is grief. I do have a question for Clinton supporters, once and for all, please, please either direct me to a website or list some facts as to Hillary's experience. Someone said, the fact that you have done something for a long time is not a credible issue, you could have done something wrong for a long time. I ask this question with sincerety, what is her experience? I would rather receive facts than emotions. Thanks.

I am an African American and am appalled that any American, black, white, Asian, or Latino would cast a vote or base a decision as serious as the presidential nomination on the musings of "the media". What a cop out! I am supporting Barack Obama because of his character, leadership, and his incredible ability to inspire and affect change at a historical moment where we desperately need it. I am not voting for him because he is half-black, I am not voting for him because he is young. I am voting for him because I think he is the best candidate and that as president he will make this country better and because he charges me not to believe in him, but to believe in myself and my fellow country men. He brings out the best in all of us and clearly Sen. Clinton, much to my disappointment, emphatically does not.

The truth is I don't think that Obama is the right man for the job as a President. that belongs to John Edwards. but as a middle class black business man, I would go with Obama as opposed to Hillary because she is just as inexperienced and secondly, I think the woman's ulterior motives would be the ruin of this nation if she ever gets into power. She's a power hungry feminist. beware!!

I can only hope that John Edwards will throw his support behind Barack Obama. John was my preferred candidate due to his support for traditional middle class issues that have long been abandoned by the mainstream media, and corporate candidates like Hillary Clinton. I have been a liberal Democrat my entire life and I have never voted for a Republican presidential candidate, but I think Hillary as our nominee will guarantee Republican victory in 2008

Who cares who Ted Kennedy endorses given his liberal agenda, less than inspiring past and personnel behavior problems. Give the voters some credit for having intellegence, most get it and can decide who they want to vote for without the over hyped media analizing each spoken word from politicians mouths which is usually lots of rethoric without substance.

McCain vs. Hillary, or maybe Obama... McCain wins from Virginia to Texas because of his military background...and with his Republicans + Independents drawing power, he can compete in CA and maybe even New York
He's not a boring white boy...he's got that twinkel in his eye...track record of bipartisanship...he's not the guy Obama wants to run agaisnt
He just might be in the White House
And John Edwards goes on back home

I was supporting Barrack Obama until I watched his reaction toward Hillary Clinton at the State of the Union address. I think that if she was man enough to extend her hand to him and Senator Ted Kennedy in an effort to bring unity in the party and he snubbed her as he did, then I think that she's the one that can bring the country together and move forward as a nation. We don't need another selfish brat in the office as we have in there now. He had the same look on his face that we've seen too often on George W. Bush's face, you all know the smug tight lipped looked that I'm talking about. As I examine more the endorsers that Obama's gathered I don't see any possible way for there to be a change in the thinking of the next administration. He's gathering the support of all of the "Old School democrats" such as the Kerry and the Kennedy's. They know that he's the candidate that they can control and he will dance to their music. At the same time they know that Hillary is here own person and she will do things as she see's to be correct and not listen to the old gaurd. Hillary is really the only candidate in the field of both parties that represents true change. She did garner the largest amount of votes of all candidates including the Republicans in Florida and by a substantial margrin and didn't even campaign there. Hopefully she will win the nomination and choose Barrack Obama as her running mate. They would compliment each other and he would be able to learn a lot from her and Bill Clinton in the process.
