    Lets compare obama to another famous black man

    Hugo Chavez must be proud of Sarah the Socialist

    Are you saying that you'd elect her and THEN try to figure out her ideological stance? Now, try this... 'see what Obama says about taxes when and if he becomes president' This is logically the same as you have suggested. How do you like the idea now? Case closed? You've GOTTA be...
