November 6, 200817 yr but the two speeches that Obama and McCain were both historical Don't they have people write their speeches or something though? A lot of the big speeches in recent history were written by people other than the person who read them. It isn't exactly a new phenomenon. He who learns must suffer, and, even in our sleep, pain that cannot forget falls drop by drop upon the heart,and in our own despair, against our will, comes wisdom to us by the awful grace of God. - Aeschylus (525 BC - 456 BC)
November 6, 200817 yr I concur. However, I've seen him give speeches, and he really isn't that great, IMO. (He came to give a speech a mile from my house) He just sounds like everyone else, so I don't know what people see in him. I went to one of his speech's when he came to my school, Arizona State University, and I enjoyed his speech. It was easy to connect to. Race for those who keep bringing it up, is man made. You can't control your race. I don't remember who it was but someone a few post up talks about Obama playing the race card. He is black, he may have white culturally but he is black. Its not like he can walk on stage and people wont see him as black, he has to play it, its apart of him if you like it or not. McCain is invisible to race, he's white, and male. Playing the race card was NOT the deciding factor in this race. It was the hope for change. Obama becoming president is huge not only for America but for the World as well. For those who complain about taxes, don't vote for your wallet, vote for the better of the country. Every election no matter who becomes president, these arguments are always be the same..
November 6, 200817 yr but the two speeches that Obama and McCain were both historical Don't they have people write their speeches or something though? Yeah, but delivery is also really important. Obama naturally has that charisma, and McCain was strong throughout his. I agree. Giving a good speech is hard and takes practice. That is why they have classes for it.
November 6, 200817 yr but the two speeches that Obama and McCain were both historical Don't they have people write their speeches or something though? Sometimes. Obama writes a lot of his own speeches.
November 6, 200817 yr The most important thing we learned is that 47.3% of Americans are still intolerant, racist, stupid rednecks. My carbon footprint is bigger than yours...and you know what they say about big feet. These are the times that try mens souls...
November 6, 200817 yr The most important thing we learned is that 47.3% of Americans are still intolerant, racist, stupid rednecks. Or like a different political party #-o Always remember you're unique, just like everyone else.
November 6, 200817 yr The most important thing we learned is that 47.3% of Americans are still intolerant, racist, stupid rednecks. Or like a different political party #-o Oh no. It couldn't be that. I mean nobody actually disagreed with Obama on issues. They were just racists. My carbon footprint is bigger than yours...and you know what they say about big feet. These are the times that try mens souls...
November 6, 200817 yr 15 pages of posts overnight?!?!?!??! That's gotta be a new record for OT. :shock: Anyway, I fell asleep long before the results were in so I didn't see the speeches. I'll look em up on Youtube later. I'm glad Obama won. He had the support of the international community and had about 2/3 of the electoral votes. Now let's see what happens to the nation in January... [hide=]tip it would pay me $500.00 to keep my clothes ON :( :lol:But then again, you fail to realize that 101% of the people in this universe hate you. Yes, humankind's hatred against you goes beyond mathematical possibilities.That tears it. I'm starting an animal rebellion using my mind powers. Those PETA bastards will never see it coming until the porcupines are half way up their asses.[/hide]Apparently a lot of people say it. I own. http://linkagg.com/ Not my site, but a simple, budding site that links often unheard-of websites that are amazing for usefulness and fun.

November 6, 200817 yr First, congratulations! Second, this will be very interesting... Seeing how things will change and what he and his administration will achive. J'adore aussi le sexe et les snuff moviesJe trouve que ce sont des purs moments de vieJe ne me reconnais plus dans les gensJe suis juste un cas désespérantEt comme personne ne viendra me réclamerJe terminerai comme un objet retrouvé
November 6, 200817 yr Just noticed the stock market is down nearly 500 points today. Coincidence? My carbon footprint is bigger than yours...and you know what they say about big feet. These are the times that try mens souls...
November 6, 200817 yr A lot of the big speeches in recent history were written by people other than the person who read them. It isn't exactly a new phenomenon. Yeah I know, I just don't like when people are praised on how well they read rather than how well they write.
November 6, 200817 yr Just noticed the stock market is down nearly 500 points today. Coincidence? Yeah, it is, the stock market has been fluctuating quite often recently actually. I'm not to sure if this thread is a joke to you, but if it is it's really not funny, first you think everyone who didn't vote for Obama is a racist, and 2nd you think that because he was elected the stock market went down 500 points. You sir, are an idiot. Always remember you're unique, just like everyone else.
November 6, 200817 yr Just noticed the stock market is down nearly 500 points today. Coincidence? Usually it happens when a democrat is elected, if a republican wins it goes up i think. Or this time it was because people where afraid of the current market... 99 FM Acheived on Friday December 26th 2008Click for my blog|Mass Effect Discussion Thread|Nation Creation/Create your own Country Forums

November 6, 200817 yr Yes, ignore that fact that I just said that. Always remember you're unique, just like everyone else.

I mean nobody actually disagreed with Obama on issues. They were just racists. So what you're saying is that anyone who doesn't vote for Obama is a racist? You my friend, win the gold badge of ignorance. Get back here so I can rub your butt.
November 6, 200817 yr This is at least the 2nd or 3rd thread people have said the same thing that I've said, only two posts below, people should really read others posts, at least on the same page that they're posting on. Always remember you're unique, just like everyone else.
November 6, 200817 yr So what you're saying is that anyone who doesn't vote for Obama is a racist? You my friend, win the gold badge of ignorance. You, my friend, along with several other people, have earned the gold badge of utter sarcasm detector failure. Someone had to say it.
November 6, 200817 yr Sarcasm? Jack and Saruman have been making dumb political post for the past two days. Get back here so I can rub your butt.
November 6, 200817 yr Sarcasm? Jack and Saruman have been making dumb political post for the past two days. Saru's serious. Jack, it's quite possible he's not. [bleep] the law, they can eat my dick that's word to Pimp
