Every word that Obama or Michelle say will be analyzed under a microscope, they know this so they should be extra careful. While I’m at it, Michelle should pay attention to her dress-code - she should dress more like a First Lady. She is not trying to be the sexiest woman in America. Sometimes her dress-code is a 10/10 other times it is a 3/10. Michelle, appearance matter just like words matter.

It’s quite funny how childish some of us Americans can be. We jump on Obama for using a mostly symbolic and otherwise meaningless image, whereas many people encourage rumors about Obama’s religion (he’s a Muslim! Barack HUSSEIN Obama! His name sounds like Osama!) and downright slander, whereas they cringe when something so completely irrelevant to the election (like this) happens.

Please, grow up. Realize that almost all of the negative propaganda and all the false rumors have been focused on Democratic candidates, whether Hillary or Obama, while McCain’s mistakes are never pointed out! McCain has showed that he has almost no knowledge of the Constitution (in the case with Guantanamo, that he wants to reserve the habeas corpus right just to Americans, and not to every human being, as outlined in the Constitution) yet we actually see people PRAISING him for such ridiculous views. Learn the basic tenets of your government and learn to actually focus on relevant issues before slandering political candidates for useless crap like this.

Take it easy everyone.

The Presidential Seal has become nothing more than another corporate emblem, the President its most visible employee anyway.

It was a campaign ploy that fizzled.

Besides, we are electing a public servant, not annoiting a king or selecting a Pope.

I’m thinking that a president that “can” would be a nice change…

of all the people who thought it was arrogant, disrespectful, or making a mockery of anything about america, I wonder what percent of them are likely to vote for McCain. You fogies are too uptight. All his modifications are, are clever. Maybe he read “The Secret”, not that I recommend the book in any fashion, but come on. If anyone could possibly be offended, it could only possibly be the man or woman who created the emblem, and they are voting for McCain. However, I will concede that it is sad that his camp said it was for one time use, cause im sure it wasnt

It was a smart marketing move. Unfortunately, some did not think so. Much a do about nothing. That said, Obama and his campaign managers should pay attention to the little details that can easily be overblown. They should not put Obama in a position where he has to constantly explain himself or make excuses. You know, like the bittergate affair which cost him votes or Michelle’s “…love country …” story. If these blips keep on happening, it can cost Obama the election. Good luck to Obama and Michelle. I look forward to a President Obama and First Lady Michelle Obama. Keep up the good work - but beware - McCain is a tough competitor.

My fellow Americans, lend me your ears and your common sense. As we get closer to the November election, we can expect both candidates to attack each other on such meaningless issues such as this. Let’s put our mind to work and allow our loyalty to the party to take a back seat. First, let’s ask the questions. What are the most important issues facing us? The economy, energy, health care, education, homeland security and our retirements. How do we stimulate the economy? More taxes on everything we do and buy? What do we do about energy? My God, haven’t we learn from the 70’s, we should have drilled for more oil back then , instead of waiting until now. Of course drilling won’t help us today or tomorrow, but then again what other viable options do we have? What are the consequences if we don’t do anything. Do we place a windfall tax on the oil companies? Now think about it, do you think the companies are really going to be hit hard from that (if that is the intention) of course not, they will just pass that along to guess who, that’s right….you and I. A tax break for the summer on gas? I don’t think so. This country needs that money it generates in taxes. Any real alternative is years away. Let’s not kid ourselves thinking we could grow ethanol. Have you wondered why the amazon is disappearing? Growing that does more harm than good. It also cost more to produce and will also create an increase in corn prices (haven’t we seen this lately) I am all for a cleaner environment but we are a society that greatly depends on the oil. Now let’s talk about health care. First let’s take a look at out current system and compare it to what many have proposed, a system more like Canada’s or Europe’s. We should investigate how long on average would we have to wait for emergency care, what will the doctors be able or unable to do for us and how will it be paid for…Oh I know, raise taxes. Education, folks while the rest of the world gets smarter and spends less on education, we are still trying to figure out what to do. Most of the money from our lotteries go to funding education, How is it really being spent? Most of that money goes to salaries of those who have nothing to do with your child’s day to day education. Teachers are not being paid their fair share. Homeland security…let’s take a look at both candidates. One wants to talk to terrorist leaders and try to negotiate with them. The other wants to stay in Iraq and fight for 100 years. At some point, the Iraqi people and government will have to have a change in their wayss to one of hope, acceptance and unity for a single cause…peace. Folks if we make it easier for companies to do business here in the United States they will stay but at the same time we must protect their retirements. Now I leave you with this final question. Who do you want for your president another 4 years of Bush or the reincarnation of the peanut farmer, Mr. Carter?????

He listened to people when they are upset by it. That’s more than I can say for a President that would “stay course” or arrogantly say, “Mission Accomplished.” I cannot bear having another Republican president that have such ridiculous agendas without listening to the people.

Do any of you even think that he had anything to do with the faux-presidential seal? I can’t imagine that any presidential candidate would be concerned about the decorations for a stop on the trail. He has underlings who deal with that, and is underlings screwed up. At least they did the right thing and stopped ASAP.

Who does this guy think he is seriously???

Let me see…let’s replace ‘out of many one’….’in God we trust.’…does he really think this will fly in the USA???

The last egomaniac who had this level of presumption was…hummm…Napoleon!
