Would you vote for someone whose first name rhymed with the mideast country we're at war with? Whose last name rhymes with a world renowned terrorist? And whose middle name rhymes with...no isthe same as...a well-known mideast tyrant?

Barack Hussein Obama

He didn't choose his names, his parents, his place of birth or his ethnicity.

Vote for his ability, not his body.

I've heard him interviewed a few times. He's lucid, rational, and smart. In other words, he hasn't a chance being elected POTUS. If he ran, I'd vote for him.

[Correct stupid mistake.]

I think Kallah was speaking tongue-in-cheek on this one, gents.

(Who says Americans don't do irony? )

I was. I realized later that I should have posted it in "Jokes."

Actually, I did vote for him and will continue to. He is bright, fair, a listener, and he wants to bring divergent groups together. I think he will be a great leader someday.

I agree, Kalleh. I'm more impressed with Mr. Obama than I have been by any politician in a very long time.
