Does this qualify Obama for the presidency?

Obama is underqualified for the position.

No, he is definitely not qualified. I am glad this reporter had the guts to speak out. I too have read the articles about him contesting the elections by hiring lawyers to examine all election records to get a free pass to run un-opposed. The extent that he will go to take credit for bills that were 99% someone else's work is ridiculous. More people need to speak out. Plagarism should not be rewarded with the nation's most coveted position of President. The fact that he would not commit to issues that would make him unpopular but help the voiceless in his own community is a great indicator of if elected President he will be a puppet to those that are responsible for getting him there.

Obama has been 'groomed' to run for President. He was given those bills and was not the person who did the work. He got credit for someone else's work. We must ask ourselves, why??

Who is it that wants Obama in the White House? I think that we are going to be very, very sorry when he gets there. I am not so sure that his loyalties lie with the U.S. The more I read about him the more fearful I get. The American people can be easily lead astray. Think about it.

The African-American people want an African-American President. The young people want 'change' and 'new ideas'. But people do not look behind the polished show and the well rehearsed speech made to say what they want to here, to see the real man. I am told by a well educated African-American that Obama is not an African-American. He is an African. There is a difference, and a significant one, according to the person telling me that. Obama does not represent the African-American people, because he is not one of them. Remember it was an African-American that told me this. I think that she knows what she is talking about.

Likewise, I think that he will not have the best interests of the American people at heart, because he is not really one of us either. I think that when we see him dressed as a Muslim when he goes back to Africa we see the 'real' man, the one his handlers do not want us to know about.

Vote for anyone, anyone, but not him.

He talks a good talk. I was reading posts on a Altgeld gardens, low income highrise in Illinois. Sits next to steel mills and waste dumps, ridden with gangs. He supposedly was involved with it. What did he change there? They have alot of crime, guns and drugs.

I guess he has always been arrogent.

It takes an as hole to call someone one.

All of his dirt and lies will soon surface.

It's not over until the fat lady sings, and i'm not talking about Oprah. You reap what you so and harvest times a coming.

he might get elected, but he will have a giant target on him from some confederate yahoo. why do you think Colin Powell never ran. he was a sure bet 8 years ago, but his wife was fearful of assasination.

I'll vote for obama if he's the Democratic candidate, but he better pick a quality veep.

That article you linked to is a PERSONAL OPINION piece, not hard facts. It just confirms you're a hater with no facts.

Face it. The man has 8 years experience as an Illinois state senator. Plus another 3 years experience as a US senator.

That's MORE experience than Hillary.

I read many articles written about ABM and most of them were terribly unflattering. He is not half as good as he thinks he is. He is a slick talker but he is a charlatan and I would never entrust America to him. He is 46% Arab which is enough for me to cancel my vote for him.

Where are Dorothy and Toto when ya need 'em? Someone has got to wake us from this booma bammma nightmare soon.

I wonder why The New York Times or the Boston Globe or the Dallas Morning News ... or TIME Magazine...didn't get this story... but some tabloid did? You don't find that to be just a bit strange?

Yes, Obama for the win
