38 percent believe that Obama should be re-elected

That my dear is a whole other discussion!

Laglen, you are right! However, jupiter, you should check out "The Cambrian Explosion", which evidence is in contradiction of Darwin's THEORY of evolution. Also check out Darwin's life and how he himself was against the way people used his THEORY and its limited application. And, re the usurper, it's not about Republican or Democrat, but about a known criminal usurper, who is not legally, constitutionally eligible for the office he has stolen with intent to destroy American and its freedoms. You know, he is doing an excellent job of that. The fact that the Democratic Party would commit actual treason in order to "win" and election is astoundingly awful, and the fact that you continue to endorse such is amazing. Congress and the courts are long aware of this, but, through fear and intimidation such evidence as fraudulent DNC certifications with no "eligibility clause" in them; a HI former senior elections official attesting to the fact that there never was a HI birth certificate, every member of Congress having in their possession copies of an actual Kenyan BC AND knowing Kenya's Minister of Lands and other officials state unequivocally he was born there, and so much other proof of lies and deception go unprosecuted. But, the basic threshhold test of ineligibility comes right from the traitor's mouth and his own corrupt State Department; Obama Sr. was NEVER a US citizen, therefore Jr. can NEVER be "natural born" and legally eligible. Todd Levanthal has declared him a dual-national (ineligible, again) and more and more evidence is being released every day. Of course, had not Quarles Harris, Jr. been murdered 4/08, we would know for sure that he is a "dual national" of Kenya/Britain and Indonesia, and an illegal alien in America. Your tax dollars continue to keep other vital records sealed, illegally, as he was sued as a private citizen, before the sham "election". And you still think "he sucks less than any Republican"....? Listen, someone, somewhere has a bridge they'd like to sell you.........

Ladies and gentlemen, I present to you epicure35, direct proof of my earlier statement: So many idiots. Your misinformation is evident just from the way you're throwing around the word 'theory.' Let me clear this up for you by giving you the definition of what a scientific theory is: A scheme or system of ideas or statements held as an explanation of a group of facts or phenomena; a hypothesis that has been confirmed or established by observation or experiment, and is propounded or accepted as accounting for the known facts; a statement of what are held to be the general laws, principles, or causes of something known or observed. Evolution is a fact in the same way that heliocentricity is a fact, and that the moon is smaller than the sun is a fact. Unless you resort to pedantic philosophy, there is simply no way to deny that evolution is historically accurate. You do realize that Darwin was alive during the 19th century, yes? And that, for Darwin, evolution really was just a hypothesis? He didn't have the necessary data to fully back it up. The thing is, we have that data now. You may not know it because you've never bothered to educate yourself in the matter, but it's there, and all you need to do is pick up a copy of Dawkins' 'The Greatest Show on Earth' to have the evidence unfold in front of you. As for the cambrian explosion, this does not at all disprove evolution. All it proves is that the fossil record is imperfect and limited - not exactly front page news. Paleontologists do continue to address the issue however, because a lack of knowledge does not mean it is time to shun science and turn to mythical beings as an explanation. If that were the case, we'd still be sacrificing animals to cure our sicknesses. I am curious though, since you deny true history - evolution - do you believe we all got here through creationism? If so, what exactly is your evidence for that? As for the rest - sigh. How are there still people honestly going on about this birth certificate nonsense? Do you believe all conspiracy theories that the internet comes up with? Obama is no more a criminal than any other politician, and much less so than many that get bought off by corporations. There is absolutely zero evidence that Obama is not a US citizen. Do you not think that, with the number of Republicans who absolutely hate the guy, the evidence would have already been found and used to boot him out of office if it truly existed? Of course you don't, because you lack common sense.

we shall see.

there is a little here but too easy to tear down.

I'm still waiting for the remaining Obama supporters to tell me why the rest of us are so wrong in not falling all over ourselves...swooning...when we hear Obama speak. I'd like to hear why the stimulus was so good for me, why the new health care law is so good for me, why cap and trade would be so good for me, why the next two years are going to be better for me... Maybe we're not going to get an answer???

Good point and your right. We need to unite and accomplish! That is the American spirit!

Great answer!

great point rollo! I had assumed they meant registered voters....

I cant imagine either. By then we should have our diets planned out for us, what to wear, when and how. Good thing, I am sick of thinking for myself!

lol thanks for the good wishes!

I don't think much of anyone in America wanted healthcare to actually stay the same. There needed to be a change. However, not many in America wanted goverment, this government or any government, to be in control of it. Big business might be after money, but at least we all know where they stand. Our corrupt government's been robbing us blind and attempting to brainwash us with propaganda for as long as I remember. And that's not even getting into the fact that the social health programs we already have are so incredibly mismanaged that it literally takes billions thrown on the problem just to tamp it down enough to keep our eldery and disabled from rioting. More of the same to create a well functioning "new"? We weren't and aren't buying it. Most Americans wanted small steps. While media told one story about Obama the Healer V Right-Wing Want-You-to-Die Extremists, most of us wanted them to start in on real changes: getting rid of the corruption, opening competition to lower prices, regulating instead of removing, cleaning up the illegal immigrant mess that does tie in with how much we spend on healthcare, etc. Maybe Obama thinks it easier to completely remodel the house instead of fixing the broken windows. I don't know. But most Americans wanted everyone to benefit. We just didn't want healthcare to fall into the hands of government. And we feel the same about a lot of aspects of America. We feel the same about America.

Your last paragraph, especially, Matersfish, suggests that many Americans simply do not trust their government yet do not know what they would or could trust because they cannot conceive of anything different or better. ('Better', or at least more successful models seem to belong to much more 'socialist' societies these days and that is simply anathema to many Americans.)

"Better" in any context is subjective dealing with healthcare. For every horror story in America about a person not being able to afford treatment for cancer, there's another abroad about a person not being able to receive a required surgery in time because that kind of doctor is just too rare. Even still, I don't necessarily balk at the idea of a more social-style health system; I simply don't trust a government that can't run anything right to run this right. It's not about hating the idea. A few wing-nuts and their signs and ramblings here don't speak for a majority of a nation 300 million strong. It's more or less that whole "fool me twice" thing. Except, here, we're looking at around the 500th time being fooled. In the shoes of the people, we've all had to struggle and sacrifice through no fault of our own. R says this, D says that, both do the same. Suddenly, because Obama speaks with better diction than Bush, and gets an automatic benefit of the doubt because it's just not PC to flame a minority, this is supposed to work out better? Not buying it. Two years of it now and there hasn't been anything in the positive category to buy. Americans know exactly who we can trust - ourselves. It is certainly easier to trust government to do things better or at least efficient enough not to drive the nation into ruin. But that's never really been America's milieu.

goodness, thats sad. and scary

I believe the perception of Obama is his own creation. He put himself out there like the second coming.... Atleast with Bush we knew to keep our expectations in check....

we all have them.... lol Keep in mind the Clinton years, once the Democrats lost control, good things happened and he got re elected....

Amen to that, I believe the number will continue to go down.

I agree and what a stupid reason to vote for someone, Gee I wonder why our country is so screwed up!

I agree. This is the biggest issue here, you would think out of all of the people eligible to be President, we could cme up with a pretty good candidate.

Thank you for your input, but please show me where you get this info. Rapidly coming out - I do not see.
