What makes Obama different than any other Democrat from the past 30 years?

Obama says he is different, a new type of politician. So, what's so new about him? Is his foreign policy views different than past democrats? Are his views on gay marriage, abortion, and school vouchers different than past democrats? Are his views on energy independence, taxes, and the economy different than past democrats? Is he more patriotic than past Democrats? Does he refuse to throw race into the election, unlike past Democrats? What makes him so unique and so different than a Jimmy Carter or a Walter Mondale? What makes him different from a John Kerry or a Michael Dukakis?|||He's different from Bush and McCain and that's good enough for me. I've had enough of their ineptitude and their total disregard for the Constitution and our freedom and integrity.|||The only thing that makes him different is the color of his skin and his religious background. And all the BS aside, that is the only thing that this election is about now. That is all we talk about, all we care about. But, he is no freaking different, he is snake, just like the rest of them.|||Because of his race in part - Obama has had a unique advantage while living in both cultural worlds of both the White and the African American cultural world . This is just one example of a great moral strength and ability. I believe that this strength - has enhanced his ability to work toward peace and acknowledge and listen to another point of view.|||Is he more patriotic than past democrats?! The man wouldn't say the pledge of allegiance or hold his hand over his heart during the national anthem. He was in Germany, but didn't visit a single military base - just europeans ... oh, and the gym, too. I'll tell you what's different. He is the first non-American to run for office. Sure, he was born here, but sometimes that's not enough. He even identifies himself as Kansas-Kenyan.... Well, atleast Kansas got in there.....|||Nothing is really different about him. His campaign has taken on this rock star its cool to like Obama theme and lacked any substance. He's young, black, different, some may consider him hip, and the media is backing him like they've never backed anyone else even at their most biased times so that's all that's different.|||New world order. One world government. He wants to be the one to usher it in. He promises a new peace and universalism. The times have led to this, a culmination of policys of the past. That is what is new. A new world. Oh, and party has nothing to do with it. Evil knows no party, only power. Oh, and his voice is creepy, hollow sounding. . .|||He is black but that is not the reason he shouldn't win. He thinks he is already president.He act's like it He has only been in the public eye for a couple of years.He has no good ideas nothing new.He don't have experience to run our great nation.We can't give on the job training. He is no different than any other democrat.|||He is different. He is a Socialist, not a Democrat. This should not be news to the Democratic party. Many politicians have catapulted themselves into office on the Democratic ticket and only shown their true colors after elected.


In that respect, Obama is NO different.|||The last candidate to run like Obama was JFK.


The similarities are very strong.


I suggest spending a few minutes looking JFK up.


Not the post 1963 stuff, but from before that.





Then look up Operation Northwood and G. H. Bush's involvement in it.|||His skin color and a little more elequent on his rhetoric of prepared speeches, but nothing else. His battle cry has been "Change", which can be good, but change without a decisive plan on how to implement it can be a disaster. As it now stands, if he is elected, that is how our country is headed.|||Umm.... Obama鈥檚 black. And if u don鈥檛 for him, you鈥檒l be accused by the NY Times and Ted Kennedy of being racist. Seriously, besides a big smile and elitist demeanor, he鈥檚 no different than any tax and spend liberal politician we鈥檙e used to seeing.|||One of the biggest differences is the fact that many,many republicans like this guy, and he works together with them.


Are you not tired of seeing good ideas getting flushed because of this problem.|||He's black and has a decent chance of winning the election. Democrats lose based on their personalities, not on their stance on the issues. Obama has a charismatic, winning personality.|||hes more arigant


he loves himself alot


he thinks he is president already


he loves himself alot


he thhinks that you can save as much oil that you can drill by filling up tires and getting tune ups


he loves himeself alot


he has a bigger ego


|||Sadly the only difference is his skin color, which in this MTV brainwashed age is cool I guess. If P-diddy tells you to vote for him you better or he will kill you.|||He is WORSE!|||Yes, he is brilliant person who understans new sets of time. |||What makes McCain different from Bush?|||He's black and sincere!!!


There's a difference.








OBAMA '08|||He has Soros handling his every move.|||He works with both republicans and democrats|||Ummm,he's got rhythm.|||He's for "hope and change".





He HOPES to take my money, make CHANGE of it and distribute it amongst those "less fortunate"[read 'LAZY'].|||cause obama is really good. and he is about a change

What is Obama doing to prevent a poll shift and Armageddon in 2012?

Most Scientist agree we could be looking at the end of the world in 2012, what is Obama doing to stop it?|||Obama will fix all. He promised! Maybe Obama could head up the Departments of Hope and Change, which can be in a new federal building shaped like a heart, where he can sit around and think of ways to inspire people with empty, meaningless rhetoric. His entire role in the government can be finding new ways of feeding our emotions. Liberals yearn for a choreographed fantasy world which disputes human nature. They swoon at the idea of standing on the side of the hill while reciting poetry with talking raccoons, singing kum ba yah and drinking decaffeinated Coke. o_O|||Huh?











The world isn't going to end in 2012. Anyone who tells you that it is are mentally unstable.


People have been predicting the end of the world since man first walked the earth. They are con men who desire power, fame, and your money. They are dangerous and should never be taken seriously.|||actually only half of him will see the apocalypse in 2012





regarding the end for 2012 - the Mayans predicted the people who would come and kill them, and the people who would meet the end of days in 2012|||He has the right to criticize who has the heart to help.


_Proverbs 11:19


Wars may be fought with weapons, but they are won by men. It is the spirit of the men that follow and of the man that leads that gains the victory.


_George Patton Jr.|||1. No Pole Shift.





2. No end of the world.





3. No legitimate Scientist believes anything you just wrote.





By the way, it's "pole" not "poll".|||he wont stop it. Obama is the herald of the antichrist. Jesus had john the baptist. The antichrist has Obama. Obama is setting the tone for the arrival of the end!|||Nothing. Some things are too big for even the president of the United States from stopping. We can't even agree to do anything about global warming despite a century's worth of climate data suggesting it is true.|||it is kinda scary, imam obama might be elected in 2012, da end of the world, this makes sense, i have heard he is is satan, can it be true? the end of the world if imam is re elected ?!?!|||Most scientists say no such thing.|||"Most Scientist"???? What does that mean, one, two, three. I don't know of many people who think the world will end in 2012.|||Come on, he sucks but most scientists are not saying that 2012 disaster stuff.|||The poll shift is coming in November and it will save us from Armageddon! ;)|||I would be more afraid of the possibility of some right wing crack pot president than a pole shift, that is the real threat to our country and the world!!!|||"most scientists"???





Are they keeping it a secret?|||Ignoring Change and relying in HOPE.|||Resign from office.|||Are you crazy, Seriously deranged. Even FOX5 doesn't run that game. Then again Glenn Beck is off his meds.|||He plans to get in as much golf as possible!|||Give it up.......the voice of the nation through voting is louder than even Bama's and the dem's ears can ignore.|||He'll get Michael Bay to make a film about it|||Go golfing with Tiger Woods and OJ?

What has Obama done or suggested to be done to improve the economy?

How will Obama be our saviour and fix the economy? What has he done as Senator to improve the economy? Or does he just want to blame Bush for it?|||nothing, nothing, and yes|||Obama has suggested withdrawing from Iraq and have the Iraqis support spend their own money. This would free up $10 Billion dollars a month we are currently spending.





Bail out strategy from bottom up plan. Instead of giving the money to Wall Street and still displacing families, restructure mortgage rates and principles. The net effect will still make the securities that are based on these mortgages adjusted to market values. People will get to keep their homes, and we will not have a flood of foreclosed houses on the market driving down other property values.





Lastly, with a tax credit giving to the middle class they will use the funds and spend it. This consumer spending will stimulate the recovery of the economy. This in turn will drive businesses.|||Well, if you look at our current production possibilities table, we are operating under the economic line. The reason is unemployment. The reason for the unemployment rise is higher gas prices and foreign competition. What Obama wants to do is rise taxes to create more jobs and end America's dependence on foreign oil by putting tax money into alternative oil research. Basically, he wants to create more jobs to employ more people to get back on the economic line. So far, he has done nothing to help because he hasn't been in office for too long. As for Bush, I believe that he is blamed for all our problems because people don't know who else to blame. But he hasn't helped at all. He is just employing Reaganomics on a country that it will never work on.





BTW, even if Obama pulls out of Iraq, he is still going to use the same amount of funds in attacking Afghanistan.|||http://66.218.69.11/search/cache?ei=UTF-鈥?/a>|||He has done nothing, zip, nada, to improve the economy. I'm wondering how many Obamabots will be able to actually answer the question.|||HE'S BRILLIANT AND INTELLIGENT... SO WHEN PEOPLE SIT BACK AND WONDER WHO WOULD BE BETTER TO FIX THIS RUBIX CUBE OF AN ECONOMY......OBAMA SEEMS THE BETTER CHOICE.





WOW .. DOES THAT BLOW UR MIND NIMROD??


PEOPLE GOING WITH INTELLIGENCE instead of bush/ mccain ...


|||I believe he has stated he would be available by phone if needed. Like all the rest of the Dem's, he is blaming Bush for the economy. *** |||All of his policies will be good for the economy. The problem is you need to know something about economics to understand that trickle up is better than trickle down.|||He's not a supply sider. Right away he gets a lot of points for not being backward.|||they will bring the north american union


new world order is conimg wake up|||I am dying to see the answers to this.

How did Obama become the epitome of what we voted against?

I voted for Obama because I felt he would be different than Bush. I have been sorely disappointed, and in fact he's looking more and more like a Bush clone everyday. Did corporate interests corrupt him? What do you think made him change so drastically from the man we voted for?|||The truth is, he started out corrupt. He is a master at saying what you want to hear and then doing something else. He is a product of the thoroughly corrupt Chicago political machine. Did you really expect him to be honest? He is completely beholden to the special interests that got him there. He also is an ideologue who has only one thing on his mind. . .Power. . Government power. If you want someone to take over and "rule" us, then he's your man. Some of us actually listened to what he said BEFORE he was elected and thus are not surprised at how he is currently acting.





I don't think he's like Bush. Bush for all his faults at least meant well. Obama doesn't.|||Those who voted for him took him at face value and didn't look into what he stood for.


He is doing what he promised - Change.


Social activists (also known as Community Organizers) are FOR big government and increasing government spending. He is also a pathological liar. If you did your homework before the election you would know that that is what he was and is.


Corporate interests did not corrupt him, he was corrupt from the beginning.|||Yes, obama was corrupted. Obama does not really have any power. He is told what to do and what to say. It was a matter of time. When will America get a good president that makes a difference.|||He always was " what we should have voted against" Unfortunately some bought the hype, the false rhetoric and drank the Obama kool aid.





I am proud to say I did not!|||He never fooled me!


Americans got the government they wanted!|||Obama is only human an does the best he can|||fooled us all


cant trust anybody to keep there word anymore|||He didn't. I suspect it's all in your mind.

What will Obama try to accomplish if he gets elected a second term?

What do you believe Obama's goals will be for second term if he wins the general election next year?|||A total and complete collapse of the United States economy. The total and complete destruction of the American way of life to include the creation of racial bitterness and antagonism between all ethnic groups. In short, should 0bama be re-elected it will be the destruction of the American way of life, to include maybe even the secession of some states from the union.|||Find a part of the economy that he hasn't destroyed yet.|||higher debt limit .|||nothing like always|||To finish the u.s. off in total damnation.

How come Obama was not specific when asked about the programs he would cut?

He says he will go through the federal budget line by line and eliminate programs that no longer works. His statement would have carried more weight and he would have come off more knowledgeable in this area if he backed it up with a few examples. Instead, I feel like I have to take his word on blind faith.





Can anyone tell me specifically where Obama is going to cut spending?|||You haven't been paying attention these past two years three months, it seems. The very first month he was in office, President Obama went through the final FY Bush/Cheney budget line by line, as promised, and CUT SPENDING by canceling the Bush-ordered presidential helicopter fleet (saving at least $62 BILLION that was returned to Treasury for National Debt paydown). Then, around mid-2009, President Obama again eliminated wasteful spending (CUT SPENDING) by simply canceling the Cheney-ordered fleet of very costly F-22 planes that even the Air Force did not want, sending more than $65 BILLION ($365 MILLION PER PLANE) back to Treasury.





If you go back and review Associated Press and Bloomberg News articles from early 2010, you would discover that President Obama's first-ever budget (October 1, 2009 through September 30, 2010 Fiscal Year) following the final Bush/Cheney FY (Oct. 1, 2008 through Sept. 30, 2009) $1.09 TRILLION budget knocked off that $.09 TRILLION through disciplined and targeted CUTS IN SPENDING (programs eliminated or consolidated, for example), making his first budget for $1.0 trillion ($90,000,000,000 or $90 BILLION LESS than his predecessors').





This coming Wednesday, President Obama is scheduled to deliver a speech to the American people about which programs he is proposing to cut that will not slow the recovery he has been able to achieve after the devastation of the Republicans' economic policies from 2001 through 2008. C-SPAN will be the best place to watch this speech or you can go to whitehouse.gov and see a live broadcast as well, unedited and uninterrupted.|||After two years of spending like a drunken sailor, do you really think Obama has suddenly become a deficit hawk.





This is the guy who has lead the biggest increase in government in history.





What has Obama been suggesting we cut for the last two years? Nothing|||Tax and spend democrats usually don't. If they did they will not be reelected. If Obama has a choice he will not until after the 2012 election. If he and the Dems are reelected, they will tax, tax and more tax.|||Obama has already cut spending..He cut federal workers pay, but freezing salaries...and he froze cost of living adjustments for people living on Social Security...never saw Bush do that|||Likely in order to avoid limiting the possibilities. He is a compromiser. (Better get part of what you want than nothing at all --- right?)|||(D) = iron-clad guarantee he will do his best to dramatically increase spending.|||Because unlike the Republicans he is really willing to negotiate in good faith.|||He dos not know himself what the senate and congress will let him cut|||He didn't say because he is a liar. All politicians are!|||Obama is just small piece of the pie! He can't FART without Congress approval!

How is Obama gonna react to the rapidly progressing Chinese Military?

Carrier Killer, Improved missile guidance systems, and not to mention their amazing numbers. What can we expect to see Obama do to react?|||Obama will call for a town hall meeting, a stern one. Forget the UN, our no so last best hope for peace, go to the top - Jay Leno at 11:30 pm. Turn this over to the tough guy Rahm Emanuel, he thinks he can handle Republicans, Chinese should be no problem. A parachute rescue mission using ACORN commandos, fresh from stunning victories over AIG execs and their wives and children, might be considered. And don鈥檛 forget David Axelrod, a guy who knows how to follow the path the media has laid down for him. Above all Mr Obama, has the ultimate weapon, his teleprompter, show no mercy ! And remember to keep turning your head from side to side, that physical punctuation mark that suggests gravity. Oh, and Mr. Obama, don鈥檛 poo your pants, because it isn鈥檛 all taking about the economy.





Liberals in control. The store is open - take what you want and nothing will happen. Kinda like the Community Reinvestment Act. This time it is the鈥╓RA - World Reinvestment Act. And you thought Barry O was going to redistribute the wealth to only Americans. o_O|||He won't need to react to their military because it is still some years away from being equal to the USA's in terms of technology


So, he'll pass the buck to future President's because he won't really have to worry about it.


Besides the Chinese are becoming Americanized by the influx of wealth and they won't want to lose that cash flow so in essence by dumping the millions and millions of dollars we are effectively neutralizing them as an all out enemy.|||With China holding out regarding sanctions to North Korea, I think we are looking at those two joining up. They could easily take over the entire region. Another world war probably. And just think, we are funding it. All the millions we send to North Korea to feed the starving (which they never benefit from) and all the Americans buying all that crap from China. And it is crap. We will soon learn I think.|||Oh, we will be their friend. There's no way they will fight us, since they're invested so heavily in our economy. They will not want us to seize their wealth. China has far too many people to fight hand to hand. They will have to be nuked if they challenge our existence. That's Obama's only option.|||Obama will say he's there to listen, not to dictate.|||Bow and surrender.|||Give them an IPOD, or a nice Wok.|||BOW DOWN TO THEM
