Caroline Kennedy’s pitch for Obama
It didn’t take long for Barack Obama’s campaign to make use of its newfound support among the Kennedys. The campaign’s new television ad features Caroline Kennedy comparing the excitement of Obama’s candidacy to that of her father’s.
“Once we had a President who made people feel hopeful about America and brought us together to do great things,” Kennedy says in the ad, which is running in New York City, Philadelphia, Boston, San Francisco and Los Angeles and on national cable.
“Today Barack Obama gives us that same chance.”

any whats her credibility other than being born to a wealthy family as to why voters would care about her opinion?ITS FUNNY TO SEE OBAMA following Teddy around like hired help, Kennedys are used to servants. Obama continues to cry and whine and loose ALL non-black voters in record numbers! Each primary his non-black support is dwindling. And of course his black support is rising, but that what we expected with Michelle obama stumping with her continued racial comments and attacks on non-black voters, which the media isn’t telling. Obama has proven that he has divided the voters among race and now with OLD crazy man Ted hes theory of change doesnt appear to be true since he is running behind the old establishment (Ted Kennedy) like a butler, before that Oprah lead him by the nose, He is just a political BOBBLE HEAD and should be ignored…
Barack Obama has surfaced in the federal corrupton case against his longtime campaign fund-raiser, Tony Rezko Obama’s relationship with Rezko came under greater scrutiny this week after prosecutors disclosed Rezko received $3.5 million from an Iraqi billionaire while claiming to be broke. He was jailed on Monday and a federal judge on Tuesday refused to reinstate his bond. Contributions to his campaign came from schemes Rezko is accused of orchestrating. The allegations against Rezko that involve Obama are contained in 78-page document filed last month in which prosecutors outline their corruption and fraud case against Rezko. Trial Feb. 25. Obama’s name to come up in court is a political headache he doesn’t need. Obama is the “political candidateâ€? referred to in a section of the document that accuses Rezko of orchestrating a scheme in which a firm hired to handle state teacher pension investments first had to pay $250,000 in “shamâ€? finder’s fees. From that money, $10,000 was donated to Obama’s successful run for the Senate in the name of a Rezko business associate, according to the court filing and the source. Rezko, part of Obama’s senatorial finance committee, also is accused of directing “at least one other individualâ€? to donate money to Obama and then reimbursing that individual  in possible violation of federal election law. Obama  got the contributions in 2004  has moved to distance himself from Rezko since his longtime friend and supporter was indicted in October 2006. After news that Obama had engaged in a real estate transaction with Rezko’s wife at a time Tony Rezko was known to be under investigation, the senator called the episode a mistake.â€? Obama donated more than $44,000 in Rezko-linked contributions to charity last year, including the $10,000 donation mentioned in the court filing. That money was donated to Obama by Joseph Aramanda, a Glenview businessman and Rezko associate who, sources have said, is the “Individual Dâ€? prosecutors say received the $250,000 in finder’s fees demanded by Rezko. Individual D did nothing. In 13 years in politics, Obama has gotten at least $168,000 in campaign donations from Rezko, his family and business associates. The Sun-Times reported
I’m not in favor of either Obama or Clinton, but
those posts above from the Clintonistas are pretty
appalling. Talk about playing the race card. Talk
about people who have been tied to all sorts of
corrpution….and you are talking about the Clintons.
It is too easy now to make the obvious pun about
“the pot calling the kettle black.”
Yeah, the angry posts from the Clinton gang are pretty sleazy. But that’s fitting. Since the Clintons have run an incredibly divisive, angry and nasty campaign.
Reminds me of Bush/Rove 2000 in many ways….
From our Canadian point of you, my husband and I think Obama has done a wonderful job demonstrating that he considers all opinions and has the intelligence to sift through to the best ones. If he can’t, he allows those he’s selected to offer, respect and consider their point of view. Who’s perfect? Certainly not 310 million Americans, nor 36 million Canadians. Someone has to lead, and again ‘we’ appreciate a multi-dimensional person, one the US has in President Obama. Further, he has given a long, down-trodden black culture in America to have the dignity they have long deserved. And the exciting thing is that so many have responded and strengthened their country, with greatest confidence and best of all, revealed the dignity and pride long denied them. Hail to the Chief. Canada would never have enjoyed the standard of living it has today, without American investment, as far back as the 50s. Yes, we have natural resources, but without American enterprise, those resources would still be in the ground. With US economic support, the Japanese, Germans, Scandinavians followed. With modern technology, largely driven by the US, Italy and France, more people on the planet have had the opportunity, especially through CNN, to become connected as international citizens to universal ones, depending on desire. It’s all about FREEDOM to think, to develop as an individual, offer one’s talents to whomever and wherever. How fortunate so many are to enjoy a lifestyle beyond yesterday’s wildest dreams; when masses of people were impoverished. The challenge today is to assist one another while believing that poverty and joblessness can be erased.
