AP: Obama Clinches Nomination

Finally! Bring on the GOP!

congrats obama

Ron Paul !

Congrats! Now we need all of those that voted for him in this race to be serious about voting for him in November.

why would we be serious then but not in the future. last i checked, things were getting worse in this country, not better.

Obama! Obama!

"Yes we can!" So far that rings true.

However I don't see it as vote one way and the country will be better. It is always possible the better choice could end up being the worse.

This idea that one party is OMG better than another is starting to become tiresome to hear over and over again.

bring out the big guns! OBAMA 08

I will not vote

Nani Nani Booboo !

I want Obama to be the nominee as much as the next guy.

But I think AP put this out a little early.

It hasn't actually happened YET.

(However, it probably will)

I look forward to voting!

I have a feeling we're going to be okay. Im confident in Obama and trust his word. This upcoming election is monumental and will change American politics forever. Cheers!

GO OBAMA!


"Come gather 'round people
Wherever you roam
And admit that the waters
Around you have grown
And accept it that soon
You'll be drenched to the bone.
If your time to you
Is worth savin'
Then you better start swimmin'
Or you'll sink like a stone
For the times they are a-changin'."

- Bob Dylan

Every election is like this BIG deal when it never is. This one is no exception.

"The salvation of America and the human race depends on the next Election, if we believe the newspapers*." -- Ralph Waldo Emerson (1848)

*or the movie stars or, in this case, posters on Current.

CHANGE WE CAN BELIEVE IN! YES WE CAN! WOOO!

cirgula - great Dylan quote! I had the opportunity to hear Obama speak a few months ago and he actually gives me hope for the future. It will be a long, difficult fight to get things back in order but I think he will give it everything he has to do it. This is very good news!

Hooray! Change is here! Obama 08!

One more for the good guys!!!

it does'nt matter if the AP got it right or wrong it's over for hillary and obama will be a great president unlike mccain will like to carry on bush's war in iraq

I know what it is to stand in the minority. It's no fun being called crazy, a traitor, and worse. But I stood on the opposite side of the fence prior to Bush's first presidential term with the majority as a Christian conservative. I had every intention to cast my vote for him. Absolutely no one that I could gather from within the Christian evangelical community prior to 9/11 could offer anything but their strongest endorsements. President Bush was all but too happy to oblige the Christian community with rhetoric most discerning Christians would otherwise have dismissed as such, if they weren't blinded by their own political aspirations for some form of representation at the highest level in the name of ethics and morality.(a messiah, if you will). Biblically, all Christians have been admonished to abide by the laws of whatever government are in place, as it is stated within the Bible that God himself has established all ruling authorities. However, the Bible does not indicate that Christians should make it their ultimate pursuit for the establishment of a Christian government within this world which is inherently opposed to the things of God. After all, it was the Jewish government of Christ's day that sent Him to the cross. Jesus understood full well what His mission was, even when he refused to be made king by force. Christ's expectations for Christians are no different today.

Despite this, it would seem for a time most Christians wanted to suspend their beliefs concerning the Bible's edicts in favor of their own. As a Christian, the zealousness I began to see for the support of a "Christian" president began to make me uneasy. I was never at odds with my faith, but rather what I began to see among other Christians who simply towed the line. My concerns were further heightened when pastors around the nation gave their support for the unilateral preemptive invasion of Iraq, a departure from our prior military policy of containment. To my knowledge, a premtive invasion had never been a policy of the United States before, nor was there anything Biblical within my faith to support it. Yet very few stood opposed, and those who did were silenced, or stonewalled. To make a long story short, the speed and method to which our government took steps to invade Iraq defied not only every belief I held as an American citizen, but also whatever sensibilities i had as a Christian.

It is a Christian duty to discern truth in all aspects of life. In a time of "patriotism" gone awry, I could find very few even willing to think outside the box to see a complete picture. Most I encountered were too afraid to think logically other than to support what was mainstream belief. To weak to think for themselves. The human body is composed of nerves which transmit messages to the brain to indicate the status of the human condition, whether it be pain or pleasure. As an analogy, our nation really isn't any different, other than we chose to ignore the signals by numbing our minds with propaganda. The problem i guess for me at that time, was the propaganda was simply too ludicrous for me to believe.

Any international contact with others would have provided more than enough affirmation that the United States was woefully misguided during our invasion into Iraq. Couple this with vast resignations from the Pentagon, and other agencies, and you have all the affirmation you need. In my case, cherry picking articles wasn't going to prove anything during a time of nationalistic pride. But knowing a thing or two about foreign policy, and international history helped decipher a few patterns I saw repeating themselves.The weakest link I began to see among people of our nation during such a time of adversity, were those who naive about world history. If we forget where we've been, we'll never know where we are going. But human nature never changes. And those who hold to historical truths have an advantage.

Another double digit win for Hill, count on the media to ignore this one too.

Even though Hillary won South Dakota, it really doesnt matter since Obama has clinched the nomination.

OBAMA just won Montana

Obama 08 - Hope - Change - No More Bushisms
