Ok but seriously, before jumping on any bandwagon, we should all look ourselves and research these people’s platforms. All of them, republican or democrat. http://www.vote-smart.org/bio.php?can_id=BS030017
This is an excellent website that could aid in making a sound decision. This page has any public statements a congressman made, voting records, biography, etc.
Once again, I love the man…seriously. But wish he would haqve a few years under his Senate belt before he takes the plunge in the ugly Presidential election.
sorry “egyptchick7″ but CNN never claimed that. They just explained how the madrasa was a normal secular school and did not advocate extremism as Fox News implied.
So Barack Hussein Obama did in fact attend a madrasa in indonesia for a couple of years. Madrasa (المدرسة ) simply means school in arabic.
We shouldnt be afraid of arabic words. Otherwise we are no worse than the fear-mongering media. We cannot and should not let the media re-define our own vocabulary.
Uhm…Haseeb….of course I know that madrassa is the word for school in arabic…
BUT…what do you think was the motivation for bringing such generic info to light? Was it bc he went to a school in Indonesia, or a Westerner’s fear of terrorist teachings called a “madrassa”? The right-wingers and HIllary obviously brought up the point that he went to a Madrassa to inflame the people into thinking he went to a school of terror. Do you see Danya’s reaction above?
” I heard he went to a madrassa… that’s what Hillary Clinton said.
I don’t want a terrorist in the white house. ”
So she and others think a madrassa is a terrorist school. CNN uncovered he did not go to a school that breeds terrorists ( Which, believe it or not, is called a madrassa by gazillion westerners, this is why I noted that he did not go to that type of madrassa)
But I guess youre right in pointing out that he did go to a Madrassa…but so do we all, we all go to school…That wasn’t the point of the Right, or Hillary for that matter.
I am never afraid of Arabic words…I am an arab for crying out loud…but soo many westerners are.
egyptchick, I was being facetious…. cmon, you think I’m going to fall for Hillary’s “ohmygodhewenttoamadrasa” bit, ya right. I’m Arab, I know that madrasa just means ’school’…
all in all America does not need a black Arab in office. America needs a down to heart American. whether it be a female or male. all our politicians are corrupted by money. regardless of what one’s hidden agenda is. we do not need a black pres. for one so they all can have a bigger head then they already do. second we do not need an Arab to whom we are fighting and losing lives to,especially with their twisted demented minds on belief of life. yes we do not need to be there so refer to my comment above on corruption. I feel for those who are helpless and embrace our soldiers, but how do you know who’s relieved of troops and who’s out for “vengeance”? Obama can keep his office as senate and stay there.
