If it was not for the mainstream news media,Obama would be behind by thirty percent in the polls.They have successfully pulled a switch and bait,to say the least.They hammered away at the shape of the economy of the last two months.They never once mentioned the prosperity of most of the last eight years.I guess they want the masses to believe that the massive construction in this country is a figment of their imagination.Shame on the news media and the ignorrant that believe in their comments and for the facts they do not divulge to the voters.Such bias should be crimminal.

As a Californian born American I have seen so much abuse by foreigners who come here with green cards. While watching this special on the news tonight I wondered if that 17 year old along with his many, many siblings are getting assitance for under-aged children. This is around $800.00 a month per child. Yet an 88 year old blind women cannot even get a tax rebate for a measly $484.00 a year!!! Does the average tax payer know about these welfare payouts for non-citizens???? We need to stop catering to non-Americans by making them a welfare freebie. Where do I sign up?? Someone close is a Vietnam vet who was diagnosed with Agent Orange toxins which caused him to faher two disabled children and he had blood clots in his legs. Do you think the very government that did this to him helped with one dime when they returned earlier this year??? When my ancestors came to American there were rules. Learn ENGLISH, you had to have papers not only for ID but for health purposes, or else you were shipped home. Now we have tuberculosis plus so many more diseases. I say close the doors until NO AMERICAN IS SLEEPING ON OUR STREETS!!!!

You see the republicans started all this! Not once did John McCain codemn all the nasty ads put up, regardless if he approved it or not! During the DNC I had to explain to my 11 year old daughter all the nasty commercials McCain and friends decided to run about Obam to my daughter. My daughter could not belief why McCain would allow those things to be said. My daughter at the age of 11 already is aware of the importance of education and what Bush's no child left behind act has done to the children of this country! McCain supports the same educatinal plan as Bush! Obama condemned anyone saying anything about anyone's family or children! My problem is not that Palin's daughter is pregnant, it is her mother that pushes a abstinence only sex ed, she promotes intelligent design(creationism) to be taught in public schools. It is the fact that he daughter has to have a shot gun wedding at the age of 17! It is the fact that while her daughter was on stage she was holding the baby and blanket to cover up her abdoman. The fact that someone pregnant at 36 weeks would board a plane when her water was broken. We should be seriously questioning what was McCain thinking! She is also under investigation for abuse of power!
