    <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>I was drawn to the power of the African American religious tradition to spur social change. [...]In the history of these struggles, I was able to see faith as more than just a comfort to the weary or a hedge against death; rather, it was an active, palpable agent in the world. [...] It was because of these newfound understandings?that religious commitment did not require me to suspend critical thinking, disengage from the battle for economic and social justice, or otherwise retreat from the world that I knew and loved?that I was finally able to walk down the aisle of Trinity United Church of Christ one day and be baptized. It came about as a choice and not an epiphany; the questions I had did not magically disappear. But kneeling beneath that cross on the South Side of Chicago, I felt God's spirit beckoning me. I submitted myself to His will, and dedicated myself to discovering His truth.[113]</div>[​IMG]Political viewshttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barack_Obama#Political_views I don't agree with him on everything, but he's the right man I want leading this country.

    I agree on abortion, but has little importance to me.I agree on improving domestic oil production.Agree on building a fence on the border.Don't know about Iraq.I still need to see other issues. Romney is still my person though.

    This country would go to **** with Osama Buma Loca as president. If any Democrat would win it would be Governor Richardson from New Mexico. Not that I would vote for him or anything..But then again.. I also say no to Liberal McCain and Liberal Guliani also. Both are Republican disasters waiting to happen.My vote goes to George Allen, but after that nasty race he ran with that Moron from Virginia, I doubt he would get the nod. I dont know man.. This may be the first year I vote Libertarian across the board.. I cant take Lesbian Hillary or Osama Bin Jackson..

    Mitt Romney doesn't have a chance in my opinion...Too many people don't like/don't understand mormonism. He was a hell of a businessmen though.

His name is Barack Hussien Obama, not Osama Bumo Loca.[​IMG] George Allen gives me wierd vibes, he always has that stupid look on his face. His political career has taken a nose-dive.

Romeny took over the USOC in like 98, at the time the Salt Lake games were riddled with corruption, nothing was getting done and they looked like they were headed for disaster; instead he turns them around and they become one of the most profitable and best winter olympics in history. He then goes on to become governor of Massachusetts, and helps turn their ecomonical situation around. For the most part I don't like the teachings or Mormonism; but I do have to give them credit they do tend to be fiscally responsible, but at the same time they continue to support programs which most see librals support.

    People would vote for a Juche adherent before voting for a mormon.
