what we are afraid of his accomplishments

Obama accomplishmentsBarack Obama
Incumbent
Next Election:2010
Party:Democratic
Birthdate:1961-8-4
Birth place:Waikiki, HI
Editor's Note: Barack Obama gained enough delegates to become the Democratic Party's nominee, June 3, besting Hillary Rodham Clinton.

Barack Obama won a seat in the U.S. Senate in 2004, easily defeating transplanted resident Alan Keyes with 70 percent of the vote.

He was elected to the Illinois Senate in 1996. He faced no Republican opposition.

He challenged U.S. Rep. Bobby Rush for the Democratic nomination for Congress in 2000, but finished with just 31 percent of the vote to Rush's 61 percent.

Black Panther,Rush supported Blair Hull in the 2004 Democratic primary for the U.S. Senate, but quickly closed ranks with Obama after his sweeping primary victory over six opponents.

Obama was almost assured victory in the general election when the Republican candidate was forced from the race by scandal late in the election. Keyes garnered less than 30 percent of the vote.

Obama formally announced his bid for president Feb. 10, 2007.

Is it because he promised not to be like the douchebag Bush and the phony POW hero McWhore?

LMAO@DESPERATION

Ah rolo... you do prove out your fear of Obama. Voted for the douchebag bush and now willing to vote for 4 more years of the same hackneyed, out dated McWhore.

I have always said cons were not to bright. Thank you for making me correct

I don't care for him because he voted funding for the Blunder, voted for FISA, voted for the Patriot Act, voted for the Stimulus Act, and voted for the Dumb Investors Welfare Act. If he showed any signs of standing up to Bush and leading meaningful resistence to Bush I would vote for him. Before the bailout vote I said here that if Obama voted against it and McCain voted for it I would vote for Obama. Like funding and FISA, I gave Obama a chance on important issues to me and he chose to follow Bush. Obama's just not my type of Democrat, bad combination of left fringe and Bushiehead fringe.
