I feel like Obama is already the President since visiting the Middle East and Europe
He’s visited Iraq, Jordan, Israel, Germany and France already. I probably missed other countries as well. The people of all those countires and their leaders greeted him like he was the President of the United States. Look at the pictures below. Do they look like a senator visiting or a President visiting the country?
Obama in Iraq:
Obama in Jordan:
Obama in Israel:
Obama in Berlin, Germany:
Obama with France’s President Sarkozy:
I’ve never seen presidential candidates visit countries and receive such warm greetings like Obama has. Then again, I’m pretty young and this is the first major presidential election I’m actually paying somewhat of an attention to.
Obama is President. He has been crowned by the powers that be since January 31st, 2008. Seriously what “candidate” goes around the world and meets world leaders before even taking office? NONE. Obama’s campaign (and presidency) clearly reveal how much voting really matters in the United States.
FYI: I’m voting on the Nader/Gonzalez ticket still!

Most media sources didn’t report that before Obama’s speech in Germany a free reggae and rock concert was given along with free beer. This also happened in Denver. Obama is a fake

Anything like concerts or beer giveaways are put on by groups of his followers, not his campaign. Get your mind right.

Most media sources didn’t report that before McCain’s speech at whatever Old Folks home he was at, a free period of yelling at imaginary children to, “get off the lawn!” was provided along with free tapioca. McCain is deathly old and losing his mind.

McCain is older than the states of Jordan and Israel! He’s nuts too. He’d be a great guy to have on your side in a war of words, a bar fight or a good old fashioned butt kicking but he can’t have his finger anywhere near a nuclear trigger. Plus odds are 2-1 his VP will take over. The man is old and his medical history reads like the Manhattan phone book. My dad’s twelve years younger than McCain and still has trouble right clicking on a mouse.

I just did an internet search. The rumor that there was free beer and a concert before the Germany speech is another wingnut lie.
Never happened.
With the modern internet, this is not the kind of story that you can hide.
Hey wingnuts, the more you lie about Obama, the more you make people start to think he may in fact really be the real thing. SURELY there is something out ther!!!!

- When Kennedy spoke in Berlin, the crowd was 1,000,000
– When Ronald Reagan spoke in Berlin, the crowd was 20,000 (who were bussed in, prompted to cheer and bussed out when it was over, according to some)
– When Obama spoke, he drew 200,000.

Well, now I’ve read some more comments and have to add some more.
I’ve always been amused by those on the right who seem so jealous (to my eyes) that Obama is so popular. Sure, he’s charasmatic and all but I don’t think that’s all it is. They say he’s nothing more than empty rhetoric. Yet, most of the right’s problem with him is nothing but empty rhetoric: lapel pins, terrorist fist bumps and complete nonsense like that. I don’t see much more than that in any comment section of any given blog.
Which brings me to the bullshit that there was free beer and a rock concert and that’s why all of those people showed up. This is beyond pathetic. If I had stock in the Republican Party, I’d sell, pronto!

First off, Dave, well done my friend.
Secondly, how much would it cost to get 200,000 Germans drunk? I mean, Germans can handle their beer, have you ever seen the glasses they drink out of? They’re bigger than John McCain’s swollen gland!
