FULL VIDEO: Barack Obama Victory Speech November 4th 2008

Barack Obama's victory today in the 2008 US Presidential Election was a good one, fought hard and fair and fought for the democratic rights of all Americans, no matter what political colour they are. 

John McCain put up good opposition but just couldn't do it against fierce opposition from political foes and the media.

Its now time to bury the platitudes, the vacuous empty speeches filled with meaningless trite slogans and get on with actually going something.

Lets hope today's promises are not broken by tomorrows realities.

Obama set to spread socialisms evil curse

It looks like the United States is moving towards electing Barack Obama on November 4.

But realists like me live in hope that this nightmare doesnt eventuate.

Forget about him being a "black" man because if you go the race way you ignore the other half of his heritage, which is Caucasian. 

He is coloured if you want to go down that track and many from the left of the political sphere seem to want to revel in the nonsense that is his racial background.

If Obama is elected Americans will be electing an individual with little experience, with platitudes for policy and with an academic background, rather than any practical experience in life.

For goodness sake, writing a couple of  poorly constructed and factually fanciful books doesn't qualify you to run the most important democracy on the planet.

The largest contribution that Obama will make to the United States will be his strong Socialist streak.

As a President Obama will be focusing on bringing back big Government.

It wont happen overnight but it will creep ever so slowly across the nation.

Obama will use higher taxes for those that earn more to re-distribute to those he sees as fit to get the proceeds.

This money will be in the form of welfare; new State benefits involving housing, education, welfare for workers, hand-outs to all those that didn't earn the money in the first place.

Those of us in New Zealand know how this has affected us over the last nine years of Helen Clark's Labour Government.

We know the creeping face of Socialism and its associated welfare thrust in New Zealand has caused poverty, higher crime, poorer education outcomes, child killings and of course a disintegration of personal responsibility and a lowering of standards right across the board.

America is a proud capitalist nation and its history of democracy and freedom is at dire risk with Obama the Socialist at the helm.

That is no more apparent when it comes to his appeasement attitude to Americans natural enemies, enemies that from history have always wanted America wiped from the face of the earth and will never change that view-he wants to reason with these people, reason with madmen?!!

Nuts.

It isn't just Americas safety at risk of course when it comes to its defence security. Barack Chamberlains appeasement attitude to enemies will see that as weak and attack anyway and it puts the worlds security at risk.

To elect a man simply because you think you "need a change" or because the colour of his skin appeals to you is simply ignoring basic facts.

What about the mans substance, his record and his plan to make Socialism the centre of his administration should we be unlucky enough to have him foisted upon us by mung bean eating, Kumbya singing democrats.

Kick this faux darkie to the curb.

C-SPAN VIDEO: Full Second Presidential Debate-Belmont University, Nashville TN, Oct 7 2008

  

This is the full video of the Second Presidential Debate held at Belmont University, Nashville TN Tuesday October 7 at 9pm (ET) on C-SPAN. (2.00 pm NZ Time) Video is 1 hr 39 mins running time.

With the focus mostly on Sarah Palin and dirty politics from all sides infiltrating the media, the Tuesday Presidential debate was a bit of a damp squib.

Senator Barack Obama is ahead in the polls but media coverage thus far has been won by the Republicans.

Obama isn't strong on unscripted discussion, while John McCain does has done an adequate job thus far.

I will be watching the Presidential debate as much as I can while I am working about the place and I will be watching it at C-SPAN via Political Animal at 2.00pm Wednesday 8 Oct (New Zealand time).

You can also see the second Presidential debate on Political Animal in full but in smaller parts here.

FULL VIDEO: Sara Palin/ Joe Biden Vice Presidential Debate-Oct 2 2008

There was much pre debate discussion about Palin making a fool of herself from the liberal loser media but it wasn't to be the case in this debate.

While it wasn't a debate that blew away the audience, Palin acquitted herself well and at times managed to beat the pants right off Biden.

Palin was measured, answered questions under pressure and graceful to her opponent.

The debate covers everything from Iraq, Global Warming, Pakistan, Gay Marriage, Abortion and more.

Biden managed his part with due competence.

Visitors to Political Animal, comment on the debate here if you have strong or otherwise opinion.
