you really think people voted for obama because of the color of his skin? I'm sure there were some, just as I'm sure there were some that didn't vote for him because of the color of his skin. I'm willing to bet that the majority of voters voted for him due to what they thought he could do for the country.

ummm yeah i really do think he was voted because he was black...ill bet most blacks voted for him..lol i once saw a video on youtube i thought of a black man being interviewed and asked why he voted for obama..and the guys response was because mr odama...yes he didnt even know the guys name correct...tell me he voted on merit

Don't people do the same thing when they vote for Republican or Democrat?

if im voting i know the candidates name im voting for..no most people like myself vote on past actions of the person...not what i assume they can do..i just hope the next republican presidential candidate wears his "change" tshirts that made obama popular

I'm confused. Don't people vote base on if they're Republican or Democrat regardless of who the person is? Because i'm seeing a lot of hypocritical statements being posted here. My personal opinion is Obama was made famous of being a Democrat nothing more...

NAFTA was a sweet deal for the Americans so I am not surprised that Clinton tried to take credit for it. Fact remains, almost all of the negotiations were done during the Bush presidency. Bush signed the deal with Mulroney (Canadian PM) and the Mexican president of the day before Clinton came into office.

But it was just that, an agreement. Agreements are nothing more than saying "This is what we want to do and will do if we can make it happen." Until it becomes law it is worth nothing more than the paper it is written on.

Quite frankly, I think NAFTA has helped all involved, regardless of who created it or signed it. However, I fully believe that NAFTA was the catalyst that set the stage for outsourcing of jobs. When NAFTA took effect American companies were sending work to Mexico faster than Mexicans were hopping to border to come to America. It snowballed after that.

Awww come on. every Tom, Dick and Harry that could get their face on TV for 5 seconds was spouting off about how far our country had come now that we were on the verge of our first black president.

I am not saying that Obama was elected only because he was black, but it helped.

If Obama had been a white man with just 2 years of experience as a senator and ties to a minister who spouted off racial slurs and put down America he wouldn't have even been allowed on the Democratic ticket, much less been a viable candidate.

I'm not so sure of that, they do have Harry Reid and Robert Byrd....

Neither of which was ever a presidential candidate that I am aware of.

Besides, Reid and Byrd are just the Democrat version of Affirmative Action LOL
