BlackBerry Endorsing Barack?

Wiil.i.amBarack gets the Black vote -- BlackBerry that is!

Research in Motion -- the maker of BlackBerry -- has teamed up with Black Eyed Peas frontman Will.i.am's website, Dipdive.com, to run a series of pro-Obama videos.

While the folks at RIM haven't officially endorsed Barack, Will.i.am is a fierce supporter of Obama. The Dipdive website has so much Obama content, it might as well be run by his camp!

Hillary's people better call Apple and get on the iPhone train!

47. braap, then why does his middle name bother him?

we say edward scott fitzgerald.
we say john f. kennedy.
we say franklin delano roosevelt.
we say john sidney mcCain
we say hillary Rhodam Clinton

WHO THE FREAK IS HE TO TAKE OFFENSE TO HIS NAME.
DONT YOU SEE THAT YOUR VERY DEFENSE IS REASON FOR YOU TO GET DOWN WHERE THE RUBBER MEETS THE ROAD AND ASK YOURSELF SOME QUESITONS?

IF YOU DONT HAVE BAD INTENTIONS, YOU HAVE NOTHING TO HIDE.
WHY WOULD A PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE REFUSE TO "EVER" WEAR AN AMERICAN FLAG PIN.
SPIN THOSE NOODLES. DONT GET TAKEN FOR A RIDE.
THIS MAN MAKES SPEECHES AND CHARMS THE PANTS OF GUYS 'N DOLLS, BUT IN THE PAST THOSE WHO MADE THOSE GRAND SPEECHES WERE ALL PEOPLE WHO ROLLED UP THEIR SLEEVES AND DID SOMETHING.

WHAT HAS HE DONE?
LOOK GOOD. OKAY, I GET IT.
DONT BE SUCKERED. THE ONE WHO DID THE SUCKERING WILL BE THE ONLY WINNER!

48. babygirl, 52

'cant wait 'till the comedians run with that one!
although one of the writer on Saturday Night Live, said he would much rather have Hillary to work with simply because it would be a challenge to poke fun an someone so brilliant on every issue. Even though he says he favors obama, he recognizes Hillary as the more intelligent and more versed on issues than Obama.

49. everyone jumping on the Obama train to prove what?
i mean could they honestly say they are voting for this man because he is better when they have nothing
to point to that showes he is better than Clinton?

i recall how Stevie Wonder, Oprah Winfrey, Maria Schriver(arnold's wife), Caroline Kennedy, all took to that stage in CA.
supporting Obama, and i felt so bad for HIllary, and thought she couldnt possibly win in CA with the First Lady of CA, and the Kennedys not only supporting her, but all appearing on stage at the same time along with Stevie Wonder.

Then God Stepped in, and guess what? HILLARY RHODAM CLINTON TOOK CA.
That day, i said to myself, "if she doesnt win a single other state, this was a message to tell people that there is a higher power here, and He wanted to remind us all. I remember saying, Thank you God." I was truly moved. Likewise, in Massachussettes.
Ed Kennedy, the senior senatory of Mass.
Kerry, the Junior Senator of Mass.
Caroline Kennedy, and the Other Kennedy - they all backed Obama, - seemed hopeless - and again, HRC WON!!!!

I say i dont know what the outcome of this will be, but Hillary has God on her side to teach some lessons out here.

Now as it turns out if Obama insists that superdelegates of states that voted for him, must give him their vote, then guess what?
the big state of CA and the big state of MA M-U-S-T GIVE Clinton THEIR VOTES!!!! then, fight's really on!

50. Barack looks a lot like his mother, if you look at pictures of his parents he does not look like his father at all. What i don't understand about him and everyone else, why does he call himself a black man? He was raised by a white woman ( his mother) and white grandparents. Is it because it's easier to say you are black so you get the black votes? I do not want him as president for one reason and that reson is, i just don't think he has what it takes to be president at this time.

51. actually you forgot that the governor also supported obama.
and yo u-r-right, he had all that support and she won MA.

hillary is a fighter. I too was absolutely stunned. this woman
deserves to be where she is. dont ever count her out. i remember
how obama sulked the night he lost tx primary, ohio, etc. and came
out with that sulking attitude. and i remember how hillary always
came out after she lost and you could never tell that she just lost
anything. that's leadership.

52. Here is a great video that shows the personality cult of Obama. Great song too.

53. BEAN, he is MLK IN THE SOUTH, AND HE IS JFK WHEN HE IS IN THE NORTH.
HIS MANAGE WAS RIGHT ON::::: DONT EXPECT HIM TO DO IN THE OVAL OFFICE WHAT HE PROMISED ON CAMPAIGN.
THIS MAN HAS SO MANY FACES ITS HARD TO KEEP TRACK!

AND YES, DONT MATTER IF HE IS PINK, RED OR BLUE. HE JUST DONT HAVE THE GOODS.
IF AND WHENEVERTHERE IS A BLACK PRESIDENT, IT ISNT OBAMA SIMPLY BECAUSE OBAMA IS OBAMA.

HE KNOWS MANY HAVE ASKED JUST WHAT HAS HE DONE. SO IF YOU KNWOW THIS IS THE QUESTION YOU ARE GETTING CONSTANTLY, WOULDNT YOU SAY HE WOULD HAVE AN ANSWER BY NOW? HE STILL HAS NO ANSWER, AND THAT IS ONE OF THE MANY REASONS, I VIEW HIM AS NOT READY.

ANOTHER EXAMPLE OF BAD DECISION MAKER IS THAT HE REMOVED HIS NAME FROM MICHIGAN BALLOT. NO ONE TOLD HIM TO MOVE IT. HILLARY HAD THE FORSIGHT TO LEAVE HER NAME ON BARCING FOR ANY SLUDGE THAT MIGHT FOLLOW. THAT'S CALLED DECISION-MAKING. EVEN THOUGH MI WAS VERY FAIR TO HIM. HIS NAME WASNT ON THERE BUT IT WAS ALSO A STATEMENT OF EACH VOTING TICKET THAT IF SOMEONE YOU WANTED TO VOTE FOR WAS NOT THERE YOU HAD THE OPTION TO VOTE AS UNCOMMITTED, BUT NOW HE'S WHINING LIKE IT WAS HILLARY'S FAULT. SHE DID NOTIHNG WRONG.

MCCAIN AND HILLARY ARE BOTH DESERVING CANDIDATES. HONESTLY, YOU JUST CANNOT SAY THE SAME ABOUT OBAMA, AND SKIN COLOR DOESNT QUALIFY ONE TO BRING PEOPLE TOGETHER - HIS ONLY CRY.

54. All women and men (young and older) need to wake-up as they cast their ballots in these final State Primaries. If you want "constructive" change, Hillary Clinton has the tools and wisdom to bring the important changes required in the Oval Office and The Houses of Congress....she has the courage to fight on behalf of EVERY American. In the year 2008, sexism continues to rule in our government and this could be the only opportunity for a very long time to turn the tide and make change happen.

55. It's amazing how many people buy the Election year Propaganda. Each time i laugh at the promises they make and rarely do they keep any of them. What in the world would make any of us expect Obama to be any different? As a Senator his record was weak, simply from lack of attendance, can you imagine a President not bothering to show up for the job if he didn't feel like it?
But unfortunatly for me what sealed my decision once and for all is hiw Wifes attitude and speeches. She is a grade A - Self entitled, overindulged, pampered, spoiled, arrogant and unpatriotic woman. Poor little Michelle Obama, with her Princeton and Harvard educations. At least now that her husband the SENATOR is a Presidential candidate she finally has the decency to feel proud for her country, we all finally lived up to her expectations.... Not.

56. I just wonder, what exactly Oprah Winfrey and Harpo Industries will expect back from Obama, should he win the White House. Considering the amount of time and $$$$$ that she has contributed It will be interesting to see what she expects in return. Don't be naive, at this level of the Game that she plays She and her company are a huge Special Interest. And you can bet that she will have full run of the House.

57. I WISH PEOPLE WOULD DO SOME RESEARCH:

THE FACTS ARE: BEFORE EVEN GETTING TO THE U.S SENATE, OBAMA WORKED FOR 8 YEARS IN THE ILLNOIS SENATE. HE HAS ALSO SERVED 4 YEARS IN THE U.S SENATE. THEREFORE OBMAM HAS BEEN IN GOVRENMENT FOR A TOTAL OF 12 YEARS

HILLARY, HAS ONLY BEEN IN GOVERNMENT FOR 7 YEARS, (5 YEARS "LESS" THAN OBAMA),

ANYONE SAYING THAT OBAMA HAS LESS EXPERIENCE THAN HILLARY, JUST HAVE NOT DONE THEIR RESEARCH!!

HERE ARE SOME MORE FACTS:

**In TOTAL in the 7 years that Hillary has been in the Senate, she has
ONLY written: 354, AND co-sponsored another 1728 biils.

OBAMA ON THE OTHER HAND, IN HIS FIRST (1st) YEAR alone, IN THE U.S SENATE, OBAMA WROTE: 152 BILLS. AND ALSO CO-SPONSORED ANOTHER 427 BILLS.
AND IN HIS FIRST YEAR ALONE THESE WERE THE BILLS OBAMA’S WROTE WHICH WERE WERE PASSED IN INTO LAW:

1. The Coburn-Obama Government Transparency Act of 2006 - became law,
2. The Lugar-Obama Nuclear Non-proliferation and Conventional Weapons Threat Reduction Act, - became law,
3.The Comprehensive Immigration Reform Act, passed the Senate,
4.The 2007 Government Ethics Bill, - became law,
5.The Protection Against Excessive Executive Compensation Bill, In committee, and many more.

** In TOTAL, SINCE ENTERING THE US SENATE 4 YEARS AGO, OBAMA HAS WRITTEN A TOTAL OF 890 bills, and co-sponsored another 1096 bills.

IN OTHER WORDS, OBAMA WORKED HIS ASS OFF, AND GOT SOME AMAZING, WORTHWHILE BILLS PASSED INTO LAW.

———————————————————————–

AND LET’S NOT EVEN START ON THE WORK OBAMA DID IN HIS 8 YEARS IN THE ILLINOIS SENATE, BEFORE HE EVEN GOT TO THE U.S SENATE

IN THE ILLINOIS SENATE, OBAMA WROTE OVER 820 BILLS
- 233 regarding healthcare reform,
- 125 on poverty and public assistance,
- 112 crime fighting bills,
- 97 economic bills,
- 60 human rights and anti-discrimination bills,
- 21 ethics reform bills,
- 15 gun control,
- 6 veterans affairs, and many others.

*IF YOU WANT TO FIND OUT INFORMATION ON OBAMA AND THE VERY EXTENSIVE AMOUNT OF WORK, VERY IMPORTANT WORK HE HAS DONE WHILE A SENATOR, ALL YOU HAD TO DO IS GOOGLE IT.
- GOOGLE: NUMBER OF BILLS OBAMA HAS WRITTEN IN THE SENATE.

—WE THE PEOPLE HAVE TO EDUCATE OURSELVES, SEEK OUT THE TRUTH, AND NOT LET SLY PEOPLE LIKE HILLARY CLINTON GET AWAY WITH LIES.

58. God Help America!

Is this an example of a voter, much less and Obama supporter? No wonder we get the leadership we deserver. 4 more years of disaster!

["41. I love Obama .........He is sooooooooooooooooo sexy and intelligent.
Yes, I wish,, I could get many Obama kisses
He makes politics interesting........He is so captivating......]

59. 62 -- Maybe you should be more concerned about the ACTIVE lobbyists who are currently working on BOTH Hillary's and McCain's campaigns. These lobbyists are the ones who are going to be expecting favors form Hillary, and McCain.

Oprah is almost a billionaire, who for the past few years has been GIVING AWAY her money to charities. Oprah doesn't need anything from anyone, she is actually someone who is NOT interested in hoarding her money, Oprah is more interested in giving her money to charities which help other people.

Oprah actually has alot more integrity than alot of billionaires in this country.
