The unfortunate perception of a lot of people.

"I'm a little confused. Let me see if I have this straight.....
If you grow up in Hawaii , raised by your grandparents, you're "exotic, different."
Grow up in Alaska eating mooseburgers, a quintessential American story.
If your name is Barack you're a radical, unpatriotic Muslim.
Name your kids Willow , Trig and Track, you're a maverick.
Graduate from Harvard law School and you are unstable.
Attend 5 different small colleges before graduating, you're well grounded.
If you spend 3 years as a brilliant community organizer, become the first black President of the Harvard Law Review, create a voter registration drive that registers 150,000 new voters, spend 12 years as a Constitutional Law professor, spend 8 years as a State Senator representing a district with over 750,000 people, become chairman of the state Senate's Health and Human Services committee, spend 4 years in the United States Senate representing a state of 13 million people while sponsoring 131 bills and serving on the Foreign Affairs, Environment and Public Works and Veteran's Affairs committees, you don't have any real leadership experience.
If your total resume is: local weather girl, 4 years on the city council and 6 years as the mayor of a town with less than 7,000 people, 20 months as the governor of a state with only 650,000 people,
then you're qualified to become the country's second highest ranking executive.
If you have been married to the same woman for 15 years while raising 2 beautiful daughters, all within Protestant churches, you're not a real Christian.
If you cheated on your first wife with a rich heiress, and left your disfigured wife and married the heiress the next month, you're a Christian.
If you teach responsible, age appropriate --- education, including the proper use of birth control, you are eroding the fiber of society.
If, while governor, you staunchly advocate abstinence only, with no other option in --- education in your state's school system while your unwed teen daughter ends up pregnant, you're very responsible.
If your wife is a Harvard graduate lawyer who gave up a position in a prestigious law firm to work for the betterment of her inner city community, then gave that up to raise a family, your family's values don't represent America 's.
If you're husband is nicknamed "First Dude," with at least one DUI conviction and no college education, who didn't register to vote until age 25 and once was a member of a group that advocated the secession of Alaska from the USA, your family is extremely admirable."

I could care less about any of that crap frankly....I don't agree with his politics, I think he is a borderline socialist, and I think the middle and upper class pay enough in taxes already. I could go on but I'm at work.

Just out of curiosity, politics aside, you don't think that Obama is brilliant?
No.
A brilliant man couldn't go to church under "rev" Wright for over 20 years and then admit he'd never heard an inflammatory sermon before.
A good community organizer wouldn't work with the likes of Ayers.

Since you seem to know so much about his policies can you please explain to the class in more detail his tax plan and how he is going to add more taxes to the middle class and upper middle class? Also, tell us what you know about his other policies and plans?

Go figure you'd bring Ayers and Wright up...any given chance right
I'd wager most educated people would agree that Obama is brilliant.

Seriously, can you call a man a "briliiant" community organizer and not examine who and what he was working towards???

Ever noticed how they never talk about what he achieved as a "brilliant community organizer". Maybe he struck out there too.

Do explain the the evil things Ayers and Obama were up while they were part of the Woods Fund Board? I'll help you out, the Woods Fund Board has a very long history of helping the poor in Chicago. Perhaps he should have declined the opportunity to help those less fortunuate because of what someone else who is on the board did when he was 8 years old...what a joke.
