Certain African Americans fail to realize Obama is running for President of the United States not President of the NAACP.

Obama Aide Concedes 'Dollar Bill' Remark Referred to His Race

I think Democrats across the country should rally against Obama and Demand Hillary replace him

Obuma is toxic! He is a sad excuse for a candidate, he will lose the GE!

If he's not voting for Obama whom will he vote for, McCain?

Let's see how much progress the AA community makes under a McCain administration.

Have you not learned from Katrina?

the trademark "Change We Can Believe In" Obama signage ..

The little devil stole it from the big devil:

Revolution We Can Believe In!

just more evidence that obama is all talk and little action

Certain people need to do their homework before they ask questions. Obama has been fighting this for a long time. What you people are not understanding is it is not just one man, it takes several votes. If you can just get one vote for maybe 1/2 of what you want, you have to except it and start over no the rest.

One bill is not just one bill, it is 3 or 4 bunched together. Yes, you want 2 of them but the others suck.

What do you do??? Do you vote yes, or no??

Understanding politics is the first step to understanding the question "what have you done to help me".

I'm a black resident of St Petersburg--- the Uhuru's (the protesting group) are a joke. They actually bring in more problems for the African American community. Olugbala isn't going to vote for him? As if McCain would ever answer any of his questions head on? Idiot.

When I lived in Little Rock, in the eighties, one of my friends had a sister who came down from New York. Her intent was to stay permanently. After three months, she hightailed it back to New York. I asked my friend Ruth why her sister went back to New York? Was Little Rock a little too country for her? She laughed and said her sister liked Little Rock a lot, but that it was too hard in Arkansas to get on “public assistance.” I asked her why the hell her sister (in her twenties, white, healthy) needed to be on public assistance? Her answer stunned me. She said her sister didn’t have much of an education, and if she got a job, she’d have to settle for something menial like waiting tables or cleaning hotel rooms. It was just easier to be on “public assistance.” I was shocked! I put myself through college waiting tables in my aunt’s restaurant. My parents only had enough money to send one kid to college, and guess what? The money went to my brother. In their thinking, I was a girl and didn’t need an education the way he did. I don’t hold any grudge against them for that. They did what they thought was right. I’ve worked hard, and made my own way in life. I started out waiting tables, got a degree from the University of Arkansas at Little Rock, and now I’m an executive secretary in a major corporation. Nobody gave me anything. I earned it all on my own. By the way, I still keep in touch with Ruth in New York. Her sister’s a big Obama supporter. Somehow I’m not surprised. She fits right in with that crowd.

I saw the exchange. Obama handled himself with the upmost amount of class.

This group should really educate themselves and stop bastardizing themselves.

Their actions alone points to the need for quality education for all.

Obama supporters were very cordial to this group.

They failed in their attempt.

Wake up people.

Being an African American from Florida, I can confidently say -- this militant group has always been a problem within the community, and they do not speak for "us".

Our concerns are the same as everyone else's -- the economy.

St Pete resident: Thank you for that insight.
I am so sick of the games, and lies. I just want some honest answers so I can make my mind up. So far, Obama is it. McCain I can not trust at all and he has not given me any reason to.

You forgot to mention you'll make sure ot it. My question is, what's going to happen after he loses? I think the difference will be that some will be even more bitter than others. While some will be bitter about the direction of the country with four more years of disaster, you will be even more consumed. You will complain about the country, but you will still be when you realize that didn't make you one bit happier. You cannot escape hate. Even when you get everything you want, with hate you cannot be fully at peace. I say stop the hating and get on with progress. You'll be amazed at how much peace you can experience.

A few more votes probably lost but Obama probably doesn't need them either as he has the Hispanics, the "blacks" and the younger voters.
Today, Dr. Danny Jazarevic, who served as the Chief of Trauma, Critical Care and Vascular Surgery at Landstuhl, issued the following statement on Barack Obama's canceled visit to Ramstein and Landstuhl: “Last week, Senator Obama skipped a visit with wounded U.S. troops at Landstuhl Regional Medical Center in Germany because the Pentagon would not allow campaign staff or media to accompany him into the hospital. I served as director of trauma surgery at that hospital for nearly four years and saw the effect that a visit from a celebrity like Senator Obama could have on morale. During that time, I do not recall a single member of Congress canceling a visit with the troops despite being just a few hours away, but Senator Obama seems to have been more concerned with how the visit would affect him than how it would affect the soldiers recovering from wounds received in the service of their country." No photo shots, no visit.

International Peoples Democratic Uhuru Movement is being sponsored indirectly by the Republican party through sorrogates of high ranking African American Repuglicans.

Their objective is to revive this failed strategy to convince African Americans that Obama is not "black enough".

Rediculous.

BTW, why is Obama black. He is 50% Black, 50% White.

No wonder some in the Black Community still think he is "Whitie" to the delight of some racist RepubLosers. They are wasting their time. Those with this thinking do not amount to 1/10th of 1% of the AA vote.

Caught off guard, Obama stuttered like Porky Pig!!! How do you like his intolerant fanatical fans taking away the questioner's banner so it doesn't look bad for Obama. Real democracy huh?

David: At least he stops to think before he opens his mouth. Unlike some people we see.

Just a ploy. Those protestors are as phony as Barry faux-presidential seal.

Senator McCain and the GOP does not have to make voters scared of Senator Obama. He scares people every time he opens his mouth and if that is not enough read, read, read about his true background and his early political life. Scary. Yea--it has nothing to do with the GOP or McCain.
