Illegals are not supposed to be able TO VOTE! Only legal citizens are LEGAL to vote in the USA....or supposedly, but think we all know that in a lot of places illegals HAVE been voting.
It is one reason I am FOR legal photo ID in order to vote.
Its like saying - we should all go to their countries and vote for their rulers and laws. I'd like to see some American try to go to Mexico (for example) and try to vote. Not happening!

I can't help but chuckle a bit whenever I see topics like this one. Five or six years ago Obama was such a great guy. The "Yes we can" man. Going to bring "change". Damn near the second coming of Christ.
Now he's neck and neck with Bush. Just the same old same old.
Sometimes I hate being right. Not always. Just sometimes.
For the record, I'll say it again;
"We" do not elect presidents. The Electoral Collage does.

The U.S. has had a vote regarding who leads in other parts of the world but not by using a traditional voting method. The word "covert" springs to mind.

I heard on the radio that a ercent poll showed his popularity numbers dropping like a rock. Just goes to prove that the adage about familiarity breeding contempt is probably true after all.......

He has always been transparent - just needed to pay real attention.

I always had a "sense" about O, never went into "his" corner. Saul Alinsky, Bill Ayers and Rev. Wright, really the only things to slip out at that time. Boy! Did I ever take the "heat", then most who gave me a bad time started saying I was right. It's nice to be "right", but not in this case, it is the saddest "right" I have ever experienced.
But, what I have found most interesting is those who still drink from the "fountain" of "O" refuse to read his books, find out who is "friends" are, who his family is, or just basically don't want to know. That is so "odd" to me.
A Dictator, or just a Dick?
Talk about popularity dropping like a rock and familiarity breeding contempt, that ain't the half of it...You REALLY know it's all catching up to him when even the dictator's dictator has a problem with the President!
(Granted, he's the most upset over Obama getting nowhere on the Fegelein issue; just as it is, I've never heard one single thing being reported about it! Must be one helluva massive MSM cover-up there.)

Oooh! Whatta sensahumor - didya notice in the directive, there's that word "continuity" again - although it's ostensibly applied to the idea of "Enduring Constitutional Government"?? Yeah, right, never mind the directive itself runs contrary to the idea of the three branches being separate and equal.Fan wrote: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_S ... _Directive

More than a little too late for that kind of continuity, IMHO - paraphrasing my earlier pun regarding rule of law, it seems Americans as a people possess neither the endurance or the constitution for it anymore.

Some folks just can't admit when they are incorrect- denial.

We all know the US has a history of 'intervening' in the internal affairs of foreign nations - although at the same time, non-intervention in the case the overthrow of democratically-elected governments can be problematic for Presidents as well (AND no less revealing of the 'continuity' between administrations of different parties!)...

FLASHBACK - To Meddle, Or Not To Meddle: Is That The Question?
- President Obama hit back at critics who say the U.S. not doing enough for Honduras following a trilateral meeting with President Calderon of Mexico and Prime Minister Harper of Canada in Mexico today.
Mr. Obama said those complaining that America has not done enough following the military coup that resulted in the overthrow of the government of President Manuel Zelaya on June 28 "can't have it both ways."
"The same critics who say that the United States has not intervened enough in Honduras are the same people who say that we're always intervening and the Yankees need to get out of Latin America," said Mr. Obama.
...
Canadian Prime Minster Stephen Harper supported the statements made by Mr. Obama, suggesting that "If I were an American, I would be really fed up with this kind of hypocrisy."
"You know, the United States is accused of meddling except when it's accused of not meddling," Harper said.
