My thoughts on…the 2008 presidential candiates
Yes indeed, King George has made a royal mess of things, especially his pet project, the war in Iraq. And with quarter of 2007 gone, it looks like it will take a miracle to redeem himself and his administration. President Bush, I’ve got a poem for you.
Georgie, Georgie once stood tall,
Georgie, Georgie had a great fall,
All the king’s horses and all the king’s men,
Couldn’t put Iraq together again.
Understandably, everyone’s sizing up the 2008 presidential candidates, trying to figure out who can get America out of the hole Dubya has put it in. There are four main candidates, the main contenters being Hilary Clinton and Barack Obama, because whichever of them enters The Whitehouse, it will be a first. If Hilary wins, she’ll be the first female president. If Barack wins, he’ll be the first black president. Hilary, that frigid harpie (I’ll never forgive you for making Bill suffer) is in the lead according to the polls. Would hate to see her during her time of the month. Second is Barack Obama, who I’m rooting for. Not because he’s black, but because he’s black and ARTICULATE. Apparently the fact that his last name sounds like a well-known terrorist’s doesn’t seem to be affecting his popularity much, though I think the Americans are a bit numb when it comes to terrorism, after hearing Dubya use it in every other sentence. But the odds are against you my brother. There’s a reason it’s called “The Whitehouse,” and it’ll be a hell of a task convincing those red state farmers who voted for Bush to vote Democrat.
Rudy Giuliani is in third place. No surprise, as he has been an excellent mayor of New York. John Edwards, John Kerry’s former lackey, thinks he has what it takes to sit in the big chair. But the people don’t think so, as he’s currently in fourth place, but he’s not last, as there are many other candidates, a new one seeming to pop up every week. Interesting candidates include Law & Order’s Fred Thompson and Al Gore (can’t the guy take a hint? America doesn’t like you!) This is starting to remind me of the race for governor of California in 2003. Wonder why Mary Carey and Gary Coleman haven’t thrown their hats in the ring? Has President Bush f*cked up everything so badly that everyone thinks they can do a better job than him? Ok then. Don’t shout all at once. This promises to be one of the better elections, no matter who wins. So you know I’ll be watching.
Still don’t feel US ready for a woman or black president. Gore running too?
Hey Leon,
Thanks for the comment. I agree with you on the surgery.
Blog: I dont get too much into politics… I have not seen or met a candidate that I like or trust!
i agree with abeni, but praying for Obama anyway.
I like Obama, He actually tells the truth about everything he does/done…he tried drugs, and he did inhale…
And yes the man is articulate and he seems sincere….wish I could vote
You think you’re being jocular with the ignorant comment about Hilary’s time of the month, even though she’s already proven herself as a NY Senator. And nice assumption about her personal life too.
It’s ignorant jokes on that level that might end up keeping Obama from being elected.
Also, Guiliani was not an “excellent” mayor of NY. You just noticed him after 9/11. Read up a little more.
I love when people like you think you’re “intelligent and mature beyond your years.” Always turns out to be wrong. And you didn’t disappoint.
when exactly is America going to be ready for a Black president? People just need to get over themselves and this colour nonsense and givecredit where credit is due. The gentleman makes me proud. He is not only black and articulate but he is also Africa…yey we are taking over!! I hope to one day articulate like he does. Rush Limbaugh and Anne Coulter will seek me out and have me for dinner
