IN 52 SECS WHY BARACK OBAMA CANNOT WIN A GENERAL ELECTION

Hearing the words in that speech might have made you feel a little uneasy...

BUT WAIT!!

Here's what he said in a CNN.com broadcast, March 19, 2008:

So when I am Commander-in-Chief, I will set a new goal on Day One: I will end this war. Not because politics compels it. Not because our troops cannot bear the burden– as heavy as it is. But because it is the right thing to do for our national security, and it will ultimately make us safer.

What I have talked about today is a new strategy, a new set of priorities for pursuing our interests in the 21st century. And as President, I will provide the tools required to implement this strategy.

That starts with enhancing the finest military in the history of the world. As Commander in Chief, I will begin by giving a military overstretched by Iraq the support it needs. It is time to reduce the strain on our troops by completing the effort to increase our ground forces by 65,000 soldiers and 27,000 Marines, while ensuring the quality of our troops. In an age marked by technology, it is the people of our military – our Soldiers, Sailors, Airmen, Marines, and Coast Guardsmen – who bear the responsibility for complex missions.

That is why we need to ensure adequate training and time home between deployments. That is why we need to expand our Special Forces. And that is why we must increase investments in capabilities like civil affairs and training foreign militaries.[...]

In addition, I will invest in our civilian capacity to operate alongside our troops in post-conflict zones and on humanitarian and stabilization missions. Instead of shuttering consulates in tough corners of the world, it’s time to grow our Foreign Service and to expand USAID.

Instead of giving up on the determination of young people to serve, it’s time to double the size of our Peace Corps. Instead of letting people learn about America from enemy propaganda, it’s time to recruit, train, and send out into the world an America’s Voice Corps.

HUH??

What is he talking about, anyway?

We're not just talking about policies and differing views on social issues, here...we're talking about whether or not our country is safe, and whether or not we can keep it safe against its enemies.

We are on the verge of being left defenseless against all those whose major goal is to see its demise.

If Senator Obama becomes President of the United States, we will be well on our way to helping them to achieve their goal.

Perhaps, he will call me a "typical white person" but that man scares me!
