It won't win any awards but it's not bad.
So far Obama seems, to may anyway, to be the best Democratic candidate.
I am, however, really fed up with the 2 party system. #The Dems have not shown much in the way of changing anything once they were elected. #Our elected officials from both parties have shown they represent their parties and themselves and not the people. #As such I hold them in contempt.
A 2 party system is just one party shy of a one party system.
I am in favor of a no party system.

Is OBAMA old enough to be president ?? You know he must be at least 35 years old to be President,he doesn't look or act like he is past his twenties yet.
But then again every dollar he gets is one less for the other candidates. Maybe he should go home and watch the campaign on TV and come back in 8 years when he is older and more mature enough to handle the job !! http://www.qrz.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/sad.gif

Well, I think I like it because he is sort of ghost like and covered up. He is a long shot and somehow this accidental photo conveys this to me. But what do I know, I'm just a hack behind a still camera anyway.

obama, hillary, pink panties Edwards, Romney, Rudy... sounds pretty depressing to me. I know the brain dead masses will make the correct choice however, and they will be well pleased for a couple years at least. http://www.qrz.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/wow.gif

Those are actually good photos. I like your style. Too bad they are about a subject of which I am totally and completly bored with. I don't like any of the candidates and I cannot decide on which of the candidates is less likely to let us all down. I'm glad you didn't take a picture of Billary as I would hate to see you ruin a good camera! http://www.qrz.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/laugh.gif

Obama is famous for being Obama; nothing else. A smooth talker who has accomplished what in is his short life? Smooth talking? He was elected once? Twice? By whom? On what basis? Who is he? Do you know? Have you ever heard of seduction? Are you immune to seduction? How whould you know?

For somebody who can't come up with an intelligent reason for supporting Thompson, you sure ask a lot of questions about other people's candidates.

Or how about Hillary, whose claim to fame is that she's Bill Clinton's wife.

Sometimes you just look up and see a cool shot and have a camera in your hand. #That's what happened to me on Field Day in 2004. #The shot was featured on the front cover of QST magazine in June of 2006. #It's the small shot in the lower right hand corner. #I was surprised to get a letter from the ARRL congratulating me for my work. #(I am not an ARRL member). #A friend submitted the picture and it made the front cover.
I also have some of my work enlarged and on display at Graphic Images Photography where I have done work at weddings.
Another GREAT photographer (I am not including myself in that category by any means) is Chip Cohen W1YW. #Check out his bio to see a sample of his work.
If you want to see some phenomenal work do a search on photography contests. #Some of the shots submitted are nothing short of phenomenal.
The best advice I can give to get good shots is to shoot hundreds or thousands of pictures. #One or two will be worth saving and manage to catch the eye of the most discriminate of viewers.

C'mon Barack Hussein Obama, is black (clean) or hadn't you noticed. He's going no where. If you are thinking of voting for the 1st black man to run for President think again. That was Clinton. Besides, Barack Hussien Obama has no history, no background and is probably hiding his true nature.
Now if you want to energize this race, include Thompson and he will kick all other candidates. I think he is a clean white guy with great credentials. Besides, what TV show did Obama ever appear on - Oprah? Get real.

Well, your hero GWB looks more or less clean and look where he had led us. Dude, I grew up in the hood (okay, Baldwin Hill considered the "Black Bel Air" - but it was black) and that qualifies me to say that Obama is as dirty as anyone and that does not disqualify him becoming president. Nixon was a avid bather and he caused a lot of problems. Clinton was clean. I hear LBJ had serious BO so does it really matter?
Goldwater. He got dirty and was okay with it although he showered when necessary. Too bad he was never president. He was the best of all of them -- BY FAR! And he was a ham - K7UGA.

And to answer what Bush had done before age 40:
A ton of cocaine.
The entire marijuana crop of Mexico and Colombia for the years spanning 1962 to present.
An oil tanker of booze.
And now we're suppose to believe he's the greatest thing since Jesus Christ Himself?
Screw that noise! Hypocrite! He reminds me of Bill and Ted of Bogus Journey fame.
I hear he's still boozing it up with Condi. I'll wager there's more going in that arena as well.
