I'm wondering if it'll be worthwhile to wake up on a Saturday morning and go listen to the guy. While I hate all politicians equally, I think this guy may not be as bad as the others.

To go or not to go?

I'm not going because I'm too lazy to drive down to campus 😛

Yes.

 

[Compton]

Sure. Ask him to explain why he's qualified to be the next president.

1) Ask him what does he mean by a "black america"?
2) Ask him why he wanted Imus fired
3) Ask him why he attends a racist church
4) Ask his opinion on Sharpton/Jackson

Yes. Go. Get the truth out of him.

Aren't you a creationist?

You better make it fast as his views change daily.

[Luthien]

He might call you a racist and support getting you fired from your job.

Remember that it is open to the public but you have to be screened by has campaign before they let you in. You are supposed to contact them ahead of time.

I saw Howard Dean give a speech before the 2004 elections and it was one of the best I've seen.
He actually defended "the scream." He explained that the media used the feed from his mic, and not the actual sound from the speakers in the popular clips of the "incident." He said the audience was loudly cheering and he was trying to talk over them. The audience apparently didn't react odd at all because it wasn't as loud and weird coming from the speakers.

Doesn't really surprise me if it's true...the media has way more control over the portrayal of political figures (and as a result, the outcome of elections) than I care to think about.

I'd go see Obama, he's an interesting political figure, even if I don't agree with his platform or believe he has enough political experience yet to be an effective president.

If he actually had a legitimate shot at becoming the next president I'd definitely go see him.

 

[DivideBYZero]

you could
go and see him
or not. there is a chance
that he won't turn up.

sometimes that happens

 

[DivideBYZero]

Once my brother was waiting for this guy
to turn up.

lol

but he didn't. this could
happen to you. He was waiting for
about an hour
then someone else
came along but it wasn't
the guy.
lol

I can't stand how in love everyone seems to be with this guy. He's got a long ways to go before he could be an actual presidential candidate. Heck I'll run on: End the war, pull out of Iraq and everyone will love me too.

 

[TehMac]

He's a brilliant orator though, which I don't like. Deeds are done by doing, not talking.

 

[imported_JoePa]

Ask him why he sound like "The Rock"

 

[George P Burdell]

Bump for update

 

[sisq0kidd]

Thanks for the update :thumbsup:

I think that man could smooth talk me into sleeping with him!
