You are already there with OBAMA and BRIDEN elected as PRESIDENT and VP!!! The only way forward is the Democratic ticket. They are the only people that will have any chance of influencing "WORLD CHANGE". To keep our power we must elect these people in 2008!!!! agreed… but you Jenna must of typed too fast because elections are in 2008!

I am an Independent voter and I choosing to vote for the DEMOCRATIC ticket this election 2009.The very best thing that can happen to American is OBAMA and BRIDEN. For THIRTY years I have watched my country change from a positive to a negative force in international politics. The last eight years with horror: BUSH's behaviour and actions starting with not agreeing to KYOTO ratification and population development, followed up by his stupidity not to act with respect for the people of New Orleans during Katrina--- These three actions clearly demonstrated to Europeans, Asians, Africans and others that American government does not care about the world body or its own people..... America has lost its way to lead in a positive way for "ALL WORLD PEOPLE". Before BUSH and BUSH presidencies the world thought in a positive light about AMERICA===they saw and came in large numbers to receive their "AMERICAN EDUCATION' because it was the best. And, they learned first hand about America from inside our country ( HOW MANY AMERICANS HAVE STUDIED ABROAD for FOUR OR MORE YEARS AND LIVED AS AN EXPATRIATE AND LEARNED FROM OTHERS? These people left because AMERICA used to provide the best training. But today, foreigners are being denied student or residency visas, and choosing other locations for study and work. And, view their denials as the spin off of 911 discrimination and BUSH ADMINISTRATION STUPIDITY. There exists now a total disrespect for the REPUBLICAN ADMINISTRATION of GEORGE BUSH ( NOT THE AMERICAN PEOPLE AS INDIVIDUALS BUT THIS GOVERNMENT). If AMERICANS do not make change and elect the Democratic ticket of OBAMA and BRIDEN, the world will shake a finger of 'SHAME ON YOU' and think of the American people as equally as stupid as its government. I fear for this, because I know we, the Great America, will not for many many years obtain respect or support of the world body. And, to those of us who live abroad representing AMERICA it remains important to have our country lead..... both for ourselves and our world. We are not stupid, but we are very vulnerable by our decisions. I believe it is only the ticket of OBAMA and BRIDEN that will carry international diplomacy and make positive CHANGE for the future. THESE TWO PEOPLE ARE THE ONLY TWO INDIVIDUALS who have the temperament and demeanor to handle international affairs. PLEASE VOTE FOR THE DEMOCRATIC TICKET... its our only way forward.

I had a teacher in high school and one in college who said look at how pissed off others get at people with money. I didn't understand until I got a little older. I watch people say this guy can't be President of the United State if he has 7 houses or Tax the rich more. Believe me they tax the rich a lot more than middle class. You should be happy that you don't have another free loading welfare case to have to support. It is you the democrats that whine more about taxes then the republicans. Guess where your taxes go...to the free loading welfare case down the street who is democratic bitching about taxes that she is supported with. How stupid. You democrats keep on sticking together.
