WHAT IS WRONG WITH PEOPLE??!!?

Okay so I know that everyone is well aware of the presidential candidates, but I want to talk about the Democrats. Hence, Barack Obama. Now being a Black woman I am such a supporter of him and the changes that he will implement if he makes it to the Oval Office. Now to address all this controversy. I think it is RIDICULOUS but it is not far fetched. From the MEDIA scrutinizing him and his wife's "fist bump" and to them calling her " BARACK's baby's mama". I think that since he is a BLACK man he will constantly be under that microscope. I think it's wrong and the only reason why they do this is because he is BLACK. And furthermore we have to realize that the media does this. Mostly FOX NEWS and CNN are the main reasons for all this purile behavoir and they have republican views. So the reason for that is COLOR. Yes indeed racism is still alive in 2008. But, sadly at this point in the race for presidency there is nothing we can do. We citizens have casted our most important vote last year for the Senate and House Representatives. I say this because the Constitution says this as well. Let me explain. We live in a democratic republic. Democratic means equality for all ( and to be specific I am referring to voting) Republic means a state in which supreme power rests in the body of the citizens entitled to vote and is exercised by representatives chosen directly or indirectly by them. Combine both definitions you have a form of government embodying democratic principles and where the monarch ( President) is head of state. SO let us focus on the definition of Republic. We citizens are entitled to vote; that is for the ones we elect directly which are the senate and house reps. So that means indirectly we vote for the President. Ever notice that during presidential elections you hear a popular vote and electoral college vote. Well the electoral college is the house reps and senate. WE put them in office and they put the President in office. I know it is a little shocking but so true. I did the research and it all makes since. Not saying the government isn't deceptive but the truth is there. So to pull this all together it is up to the Media, those lobbyists, and House Reps and Senate who determines the president. So will they elect Barack. Who Knows?
