I voted against Obama because...

That is certainly true.
Romney does nothing for me.
Unfortunately you get weaker opponents when a sitting President is seeking election. I mean...look at the idiots the Dems put up against Bush Jr.
Same here. A serious candidate will usually wait until a sitting President reaches the term limit before running.

That's partially true.

More to the point, though, is that sometimes those weak candidates can do well, if they strike a chord.

Remember, in 1992, everyone thought Bush-41 was a shoe in after having a 87% approval rating after the Gulf War. So Mario Cuomo and Al Gore stood down and let nobodies and has beens run. And the race was Paul Tsongas, Jerry Brown and an southern governor named Bill Clinton.

The rest, as they say, is history.

Say it ain't so! Say it ain't so!

No Timmy, it didn't happen that way, The Boogy Man took the Election away from George.
Careful, don't get so close or he might grab you too. :eek:

It's laughable to claim Perot caused Bush to lose. If Perot hadn't been in it, most of those folks would have went to Clinton.
 
I rarely if ever voted for a President based on campaign promises.

sorry, I'm really into elective politics and am more of a realist when it comes to governing styles.

I am not of the left, or a populist nitwit, so any promises Obama may have made, I have zero interest in.

lesson over

Well thanks but no thanks for the lesson in lying.

You've been a leftist since you got to this board and everyone here knows it. You are an obama love child.

There isn't ONE SINGLE GOOD THING ABOUT obama that's reason to reelect him, let alone electing him in the first place. Anyone that isn't a socialist, commie, racist or retarded can see that.

Anybody that believes that Obama is a socialist, commie, or racist is retarded.

It is quite obvious that you know nothing about the Chicago New Party. There is enough information on the WEB that shows the connections between the Democratic Socialists of America, the Chicago New Party and Obama.

Obviously, you don't and that is why you made such an idiotic statement.

You should sue your High School and your College ( that is if you ever attended one) for failing to teach you to think, do research and how to analyze information.

You a shining example of how bad our education system has become.

Wonder who's platform this might be?? :eusa_whistle:

Freedom & Equality

Democratic socialism is a political and economic system with freedom and equality for all, so that people may develop to their fullest potential in harmony with others. The Socialist Party is committed to full freedom of speech, assembly, press, and religion, and to a
multi-party system. We are dedicated to the abolition of male supremacy and class society, and to the elimination of all forms of oppression, including those based on race, national origin, age, sexual preferences, and disabling conditions.

Production For Use, Not For Profit

In a socialist system the people own and control the means of production and distribution through democratically controlled public agencies, cooperatives, or other collective groups. The primary goal of economic activity is to provide the necessities of life, including food, shelter, health care, education, child care, cultural opportunities, and social services.
These social services include care for the chronically ill, persons with mental disabilities, the infirm and the aging. Planning takes place at the community, regional, and national levels, and is determined democratically with the input of workers, consumers, and the public to be served.


Full Employment

Under welfare capitalism, a reserve pool of people is kept undereducated, under-skilled and unemployed, largely along racial and gender lines, to exert pressure on those who are employed and on organized labor. The employed pay for this knife that capitalism holds to their throats by being taxed to fund welfare programs to maintain the unemployed and their children. In this way the working class is divided against itself; those with jobs and those without are separated by resentment and fear. In socialism, full employment is realized for everyone who wants to work.

Worker & Community Control

Democracy in daily life is the core of our socialism. Public ownership becomes a fraud if decisions are made by distant bureaucrats or authoritarian managers. In socialist society power resides in worker-managed and cooperative enterprises. Community-based cooperatives help provide the flexibility and innovation required in a dynamic socialist economy. Workers have the right to form unions freely, and to strike and engage in other forms of job actions. Worker and community control make it possible to combine life at work, home and in the community into a meaningful whole for adults and children. Girls and boys are encouraged to grow up able to choose freely the shape of their lives and work without gender and racial stereotyping. Children are provided with the care, goods and services, and support that they need, and are protected from abuse.

Ecological Harmony

A socialist society carefully plans its way of life and technology to be a harmonious part of our natural environment. This planning takes place on regional, national, and international levels and covers the production of energy, the use of scarce resources, land-use planning, the prevention of pollution and the preservation of wildlife. The cleanup of the contaminated environment and the creation of a nuclear-free world are among the first tasks of a socialist society.

Denying reality -- as you just did, auditor.0007 -- is not a hallmark of an honest or sound mind.

It is in fact quite clear that President Obama comes from Marxist roots.

The very things about the Constitution that conservatives most value -- the limitation on the authority and power of government to interfere with personal liberty via the establishment of checks and balances and enumerated powers and federalism, etc -- are the same things for which President Obama has been critical about the Constitution.

Add the factors (and his behavior in Office) all together and you see a pattern, if you have a mind to be honest about such things, that is. He may not BE a full-blown Marxist. But he certainly has Marxist inclinations.

You may continue to deny it, but the evidence is entirely against your contention.
 
I voted against Obama because...

Because I thought he would be a good president.

Turns out I was right. In fact, considering the damage Republicans have done to the country, Obama has been much better than I could have hoped for.

You obviously need some health care.

Extracting your head from your ass is going to be a long expensive process.

It is wedged up in there tight.

Republicans are the only reason we still have a country.

If it were up to Obama, we'd be slaves to the middle east and China.

Are you really that stupid ?
 
I voted against Obama because of Rev Wright. The actions of he, his family, and his administration since have convinced me that I was right and hence he won't be getting my vote this time either.
 
I voted against obama because I actually researched what I could about his political past and the way his supporters acted towards him and the mainstream medias support of him.

What was there to research really? That's why I based my opinion off of his choice of Minister, because I had no idea where he was politically. Turns out Rev Wright and Obama think alike. They BOTH hate the USA of today.

HOrseshit... but honestly, kind of what I expect.

I don't think Obama's been a good president, which is why I voted for McCain. But no one the GOP is really offering is any better.

Let's start at his beginning political career. Like how did he beat Alice Palmer for state senator? A well like a respected elected official for her district. And how about the Chicago New Party he was supported by?
 
I didn't vote for Obama because I suspected the far left Obama we saw in the Democratic primary was closer to the real Obama than the centrist Obama we saw in the general election in my opinion that has been the case. I'm not overly thrilled with Romney as a candidate but I'm even less thrilled with Obama in most cases with Presidential elections it's a case of voting for the person you dislike or distrust the least.

That is how it used to be with me, but now I don't trust either party at all. So, I am pretty set on voting third party again just hoping enough people do so to make those SOB's realize that we are all pissed.

Maybe you're just too young to remember, little bigot.
 
I voted against President Obama because he is a member of an elitist (read that as arrogant) club of corrupt men and women who care more about themselves than this country.

And I speak not only about the Democratic Party, but both parties. I didn't vote for McCain for the same reason and I'm not voting for President Obama this time around for two reasons, one he hasn't proven me wrong above and he has shown his disdain for the rights guaranteed to us under the Constitution as his predecessor did.

Cripes do you ever get tired of apologizing and trying to balance every single judgment you make? If you note something negative, you can comment on it without trotting out every other instance since the dawn of time where that occurrence has occured...
