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!

106. I believe many would not care if Obama was just a newspaper boy. The color of the skin is what matters.

107. Of course not all young people are for Obama, but he is getting a big chunk of the votes. Just like not all are slackers and looking for a free ride. Just way too many in my opinion.

108. WOW! Did they have that Obama is going to raise EVERYONE'S taxes? Did they have on there that Obama is going to give ILLEGALS AMNESTY? Did they have on ther that Obama is going to make GOVERNMENT BIGGER? Did they have on ther that Obama is going to NEGOTIATE WITH TERRORiSTS? Did they have on there that Obama wants more GOVERNMENT CONTROL OVER OUR LIVES? Did they have on there that Obama wants OPEN BORDERS? Did they have on there Obama & Hillary want UNIVERSAL HEALTH CARE THAT WE TAX PAYERS CAN NOT AFFORD? Goodbye AMERICA, Hello Socialist country. If you are tired of living in the best country in the WORLD and the one with the most FREEDOM for now, you had better vote for anyone besides Obam or Hillary. Rome lasted longer than the USA has been around and it fell from within, just like we are doing already. Cahnge may be is what we will get and we won't be able to change back once we are there. look at the issues and not just the skin and speeches of no real content.

109. Blackberry doesn't give a hoot about the American Presidency, except which one will remove as many trade barriers as possible. So if anything, they'd probably support a Republican. But it's just a partnership to compete with that iPhone/iTunes crap. Get real TMZ.

And anyone throwing out their BB please please throw it my way. I know a dozen people who would love to have the baddest smartphone on the planet. Anybody with a T-Mobile Curve in particular?

110. Dear Jeckyl,

You are a racist.....no.......a dumb ass racist pig. Your overgeneralized stereotypical statements are absolutely assanine and you know it. Let me take the time to refute your backwards ideas about black people. First there are 42 million black people in this country. If we all regulated our lives with guns what do you think we would do with people like you? Do you realize that FBI and the Federal Sentencing project and the Justice department have done criminal studies wich show that blacks DO NOT committ any type of crime at greater rates than whites do. If we had a FAIR justice system which was not polluted by vestiges of Racism and Classism- A HELL OF A LOT MORE WHITES WOULD BE IN JAIL! #2 Have you ever heard of Mitochondrial DNA (I Doubt it) It is a genetic marker in your blood given to you by your mother. It cannot be destroyed in successive generations. In the book THE JOURNEY OF MAN, a blood geneticist traces ALL HUMANS NOW LIVING ON THE EARTH TO TWO PROGENITORS - A MAN AND A WOMAN FROM SOUTHEASTERN AFRICA. That's right Jeckyl......your foreparents and mine WERE BLACK! # 3 Whites a one time lived in ghettos as well, the jews, irish and italians.....they eventually were accepted into the wider white majority and were able to take advantage of housing laws, financing structures, government back loans, Housing covenants, DESIGNED EXCLUSIVELY FOR WHITES. Contributing to the modern GHETTOIZATION OF BLACKS WAS GENERAL SEGREGATION, REDLINING MORTGAGES, DENIAL OF CAPITAL, INCREASED TAX BASED, RACE BASED INTEREST RATES, DEVALUATION OF BLACK PROPERTY....I COULD GO ON AND ON. DO YOU NOT THINK THAT WHITES BENEFITED FROM ALL OF THIS???? FOR 400 years!!! YOU SHOULD READ MORE. GOOGLE: PBS- RACE: THE POWER OF AN ILLUSION.

111. This is what Obama Believes. Check out the Chruch web-site for the truth. I
personally find this Interesting. Read and draw your own conclusions as to
his qualifications to become President of these United States of America and
to draw the parties and people together in a common cause. ************************************************************************* ************************
Obama mentioned his church during his appearance with Oprah. It's the Trinity United Church of Christ. I found this interesting. Please read and
go to this church's website and read what is there. It is very alarming.

Click on the link below. This is the web page for the church Barack Obama
belongs to:
http://www.tucc.org/about.htm

If you look at the first page of their website, you will learn that this

congregation has a non-negotiable commitment to Africa; no where is AMERICA even mentioned.
Then click onto the side tab "Ministries" and again you will see their commitment to Africa. No mention of any commitment to America.

Notice too, what color you will need to be if you should want to join Obama's church...
B-L-A-C-K!!! They make no apologies for this nor do they encourage a diversified congregation.

Doesn't look like his choice of religion has improved much over his (former?) Muslim upbringing. One group of people over all others.

Strip away his nice looks, the big smile and smooth talk and what do you

get? Certainly a racist, as plainly defined by the stated position of his
church! And possibly a covert worshiper of the Muslim faith, even today.

This guy desires to rule over America while his loyalty is totally vested in
a Black Arica! Is this someone you want sitting in the White House calling
the "shots?"

I cannot believe this has not been all over the TV and newspapers. This is
why it is so important to pass this message along to all of our family and
friends. To think that Obama has even the slightest chance in the run for
the presidency, is really scary.
