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!

93. HUm - I just threw out my Blackberry and got an Apple phone. Im not anti Obama I just wont support on company that gets political. Do they really know everything about this man they are standing behind? The company should stick to producing pones (what they know) and stay out of what they dont know (politics).

94. If he lands the top office, he will turn on the caucasians who got him into office just as most of the blacks are turning on The Clintons. There was no doubt in my mind regarding Colin Powell but this man doesn't begin to have the stature of Colin Powell no matter the Ivy League credentials. He only takes the caucasian half of his lineage out of the closet as is convenient to manipulate others for their votes.

96. To the McCain supporters...Been hearing that even some from his own party as well as generals have expressed great concern about the volitity of this man...that he has a violent temper. THEY are asking the question...do we went want someone in the white house with his finger on the button who could be mentally unstable. I am greatful to McCain for his service to our country. I even considered voting for him and want to know more about this. Kind of scary.

98.

more evidence of poor leadership:
OBAMA JUST MADE A BIG FUSS AND WANT AN APOLOGY FROM GERALDINE FERRARO BECAUSE SHE SAID HE WOULD NOT BE GETTING THE ATTENTION HE IS GETTING IF HE WASNT THE FIRST SERIOUS BLACK MAN RUNING FOR THE PRESIDENCY.

this man will prance on ANYTHING to avoid anyone asking him something of importance.
JUST WHERE IS THE LIE IN WHAT FERRARO SAID~~~~ IT'S ONE THING WE DONT EVEN HAVE TO RESEARCH.
MANY CITE THAT SINGLE FACT AS THE SINGLE REASON THEY ARE VOTING FOR THE FIRST TIME.
EVERYTIME YOU TURN ON THE TUBE, THEY ARE DISUCSSING THE POSSIBLE "FIRST BLACK AMERICAN PRESIDENT."
REPORTERS PHRASE THEIR QUESTIONS BY SAYING "AS THE FIRST BLACK MAN TO BE THIS FAR IN THE CAMPAIGN....."

so where the hell has this obama man been?
how would ALL of this escape him?
IS HE NUTS in a serious way?

HE'S NUTS!

100. I am sick of hearing that the young people are for Obama. They have no clue what reality is. Most don't know what a hard days work is, most have been hand fed all their lives. Almost fifty percent of the children being born now days come from out of wedlock. These girls/women don't just stop at one either they continue to reproduce. They do not take on the full responsilbility of providing for these children, they want the government to help out. The young men and women of today are lazy and very immature. They have never stood in line with hundreds waiting for a job application they never saw unemployment at 12%. All they know who is winning on American Idol. Not saying all the younger generation are lazy and free loaders, but i can say a hell of a whole lot of then are. With 1 in 4 having STD'S it means they are too lazy too even use protection. The older American knows what life, taxes, work and resonsilbility is about and they know who is the right choice. That is why we all must vote, whoever here whos state has not voted yet.

103. i have no problem with Oprah's African school, but yes, she could have done something like that here too, especially in poor places where she was born - Mississippi? How did she miss THAT? Just goes to show no matter how big you are, you are subject to flaws.

Oprah needs to tread carefully from here on in.
First she got duped by that Fake book writer who she had back on and she let him have it.
Second, she had that plastic surgeon on letting him sing his practices - Kenyan West's mother died at the surgeon's hands.
Third, she backed Obama, when clearly Hillary was a better choice. AND THIS WAS A WAKE UP CALL about Oprah for me.
HOW COULD AN INTELLIGENT WOMAN SAY THAT SHE IS BEING FAIR WHEN SHE CHOOSES BARACK OVER HILLARY?
LETS DO THE LINE DOWN THE MIDDLE OF THE PAGE AND SEE HOW SHE INTENTIONALLY WENT FOR COLOR INSTEAD OF SUBSTANCE.
((I KNOW THIS WILL ANGER SOME, BUT I CALL 'UM LIKE I SEE UM. AND I DO LUV OPRAH, BUT I KNOW IN MY HEART THAT OPRAH KNEW OBAMA DIDNT HOLD A CANDLE TO HILLARY, SO SHE KNEW EXACTLY WHAT SHE WAS DOING))

but have you noticed recently she hasnt said beep about him?
could it be she is coming to the realization that his is the fourth person she didnt do her homework on?
did obama dupe her too?

and how do the poorest people in the land in Mississippi go for someone like Obama when they need a proven go-getter to pull them out of poverty?

i'd like to get beyond race. i await the day when we refer to people just as a "man" or a "woman" instead of a woman and a black man. but we are not there yet and both sides are to blame. But Oprah is in a high profile Leadership role, and she erred big time, because millions act according to her preferences and they really rely on her judgement.

I'm praying that God steps in and pulls it out for Hillary as he did with CA and MA when hope seemed gone.
And i must say here that there are some staunch Black Leaders who have stuck to their guns and said, Listen, I was backing her from the beginning, and i have no intentions of changing because obama is the more popular, so i shout for joy for those who are that brave.

John Lewis who was so close to MLK obviously didnt learn the lesson of not judging by skin color and standing up for the right person regardles of whether it is comforting or chalenging. Shame on John Lewis who made up his mind that Clinton was the better candidate but changed his vote to please what is "popular."

Hillary and some others who dropped out earlier deserve to be in this fight.
John McCain deserves to be in this fight.
Obama deserves to learn the ropes the same way everybody else had to. why should he get a free pass?
When did skincolor become a qualification to lead a nation?
and SHAME ON THE MEDIA FOR NOT DOING THEIR JOB AND EXPOSING THIS FLAKE FOR WHAT HE IS.
AND SHAME ON MICHELLE OBAMA FOR HER ATTITUDE AND TELLING YOUNG COLLEGE PEOPLE NOT TO GO INTO CORPORATE AMERICA. OUR NATION WILL FAIL IF OUR YOUNG EDUCATED PEOPLE DO NOT BECOME A PART OF THE FABRIC THAT IS THIS NATION'S BACKBONE. AND SHAME ON MICHELLE NOT TO FORGE HER OWN IDENTITY INSTEAD OF TRYING TO WEAR THE SAME STYLE CLOTHING AS JACKIE-O, AND TRYING TO WEAR HER HAIR THE SAME WHILE HER HUSBAND TRIES TO BE JFK ON SOME DAYS AND MLK ON OTHER DAYS. THEY ARE BOTH PHONIES BRINGING UP THEIR CHILDREN IN A CHURCH WITH UN-AMERICAN VALUES. SHAME ON THEM FOR NOT LEAVING THAT CHURCH AND DAMAGING THE MINDS OF THOSE CHILDREN TO BECOME JUST LIKE THEM.

104. young people for obama>
not all.

the same way there are some young people on crystal meth and others not.

the obama following has more to do with a writer's strike being on and a lot of pepole using U-tube, text messaging and looking for something to do and a place they could leave the house and hook up with others, and less to do with Obama.

Posted at 11:03PM on Mar 11th 2008 by obama missed over 100 VOTES IN SENATE!!! over ONE-HUNDRED!!

105.

as for me, i went to obama's rally only for a signature i could sell on ebay!
I VOTED FOR HILLARY!
