Clinton goes against Obama Slogan of Change.

Yes, he (Obama) stands for "CHANGE", and keep in mind that Hillary as his running mate doesn't affect his stance. As the number one man the slogan (CHANGE) remains; Hillary as the first female VP also means "CHANGE".

BigB1 if you know anything about Americans, you will know that they are very forgiving and are always ready to move on. If Obama picks another dynamic, charismatic white female governor, people will forget about Clinton in a second

I'm sorry MAMAJAMA: the rednecks know nothing about moving forward when it comes to a blackman. I wonder why they haven't moved forward and leave OJ alone after 10 years.

Also keep in mind that, it's not about the level of your intelligence or the content of your proposal, it's all about the state of mind of Americans. This state of mind is very fragile, unpredictable, sensitive, and mostly gullible.

Obama can do just fine with another white feisty female like Kansas governor Kathleen Sebelius from Ohio. Michigan governor Jennifer Granholm or even Chuck haggle that is retiring from the GOP

Good point!
But now I have couple of questions for you:
1. Apart from what is in the book, do you know anything else about Kansas governor Kathleen Sebelius or Michigan governor Jennifer Granholm or Chuck haggle?
2. Could you guarantee us that these entities do not have any unknown bones in their closets?
3. Do you know anything about their various pastors?
4. Do you think Obama at this point needs another political propaganda surprise?

My man, Obama doesn't have time for a new discovery, a new kid on the block or a last minute surprise. He needs a tough, dirty, competent, famous fighter as his running mate.

Personally, I still think Hillary is much more attractive than all these folks you've listed.
Hillary needs no introduction; her dirty and clean sides have already been exposed. She is perfect for this role.
Obama can no longer afford to drop the ball again; he's better off picking a crazy woman he and the public already know. 

Furthermore, Hillary's Unique attitude (craziness and aggressiveness) could also be a priceless asset to Obama's admin or camp.

Obama as a leader trying to accomplish a major goal, tit for tat should be the last thing on his mind. Discovering an effective and efficient strategy to win the election in November should be his main target.
Therefore, I say if it is feasible, I think Obama should go ahead and pay off the debt with a systematical condition that would bring Hillary and her supporters to his camp.

There is no need to prolong this process negatively any longer; afterall both of them belong to the same party.

I as a donor will stop contributing to Obama camp if he assisted her in any way to pay off the debt.

If Obama pays off the debt, I'm not sure if it would be made public to the donors ( I do not think the Clintons would want such info to come out).

Very funny!

I love it.

It's not about the level of your intelligence or the content of your proposal, it's all about the state of mind of Americans. This state of mind is very fragile, unpredictable, sensitive, and mostly gullible.

The bushuals will fight to their death to prevent this from happening. Obama may win in the polls, but believe me, Mccain will be the next president of the US.

I love Obama, but I hate to admit that this Mr.Frando29 may be on point with his post.
When it comes down to it (between Obama and McCain), Americans might take it as a fight between a blackman and a whiteman; which will never be advantageous to OBAMA (black folks only make 15% of American population).
Americans are gullible and mostly very very difficult to predict their state of mind at any moment.
This is also why Mr.Bush was able to ride them twice (for 8 years).
(I do not think one has to be a scientist to figure that Mr.Bush does fit to manage a single Burger King location). But of course Americans voted for him twice.

Therefore, Obama must be very careful and upgrade is political strategy immediately (Americans do not like sincerity). All that nice guy image might not get the job done in November.
I still think Obama and Hillary Clinton ticket is the key. They have a perfect chemistry to take it to the next level.

Obama is bright, cool, competent, and full of natural wisdom to unify the nation; but I'm sorry, he needs a little bit more than that to knock Mr. McCain down. Without Hillary as his running mate, I think he will be playing with naked fire.

Yes, he (Obama) stands for "CHANGE", and keep in mind that Hillary as his running mate doesn't affect his stance. As the number one man the slogan (CHANGE) remains; Hillary as the first female VP also means "CHANGE".

It's time for them to let go the past and come together before it's too late. The Merging of the two will immediately kill the REPUBLICANS and unify the nation.

His only problem: he badly needs a dentist!

Actually, I thought the dude had a piece of cow skin in his mouth through out the interview.

My man, it's a little bit too late for a dentist; I say, carry on my brother. There are tons of Nigerian chicks that wouldn't hesitate to give the brother an extended french kiss.

I still love the dude! It isn't about the size of your teeth, it's all about the size of your brain.

Very impressive post indeed.
You're a good man!

Why?
Too many are Too corrupt for Too long!

The dude didn't have any choice but to dance to the same music.
The dude has 50 Godfathers (the folks that placed him in his current position as speaker of house of Rep); 51 out of these 50 Godfathers are extremely corrupt to the bone. In fact, some of these Godfathers have been corrupt even before Demeji Bankole was born.
So, what do you expect from this dude? Do you expect him to disrespect his Godfathers?

The man has done well, he has done what a typical Nigerian politician would have done.

There would never be an improvement in Nigeria till a proper uncompromising strategy is put in place to rectify corruption.
I say, modify the law and start dropping them like flies, right in the middle of their various home-town. I guarantee that in just few months we would all witness the birth of New Nigeria.

Nigeria is a great country and it is obvious to the world that 90% of our problem is corruption. Therefore as the president, I would modify our constitution to give legal permission to execute any convicted corrupt individual (at all levels).
There is no need to waste time pouring palm wine inside basket; let's keep it real and face the music together.
There will never be any improvement in Nigeria if there isn't a proper uncompromising strategy in place to rectify corruption.
I do not care what anyone thinks, but until we start dropping corrupt individuals like flies in their various home-town, there wouldn't be any improvement in Nigeria.

Wow!
It is absolutely stupendous that Al-Qaeda plans to bomb Nigeria and the best some of us could do here is to immediately endorse it.
It doesn't matter whether this info is accurate or not, I do not think it is proper for any sensible Nigerian to endorse such a barbaric action.
Only God understands how some of us think; I guess, it is true that we don't appreciate/ respect where we come from or our people till they aren't there anymore.

May God continue to bless Nigeria, our people and spread peace through out the world.

If Obama happens not to pick Hillary, then he must pick a clean well respected and experienced war veteran, who clearly understands DC political games and could withstand the pressure.
This entity must help Obama to move over the blue color voters and strengthen his national security strategy.

Just keep in mind that Americans are very gullible; nothing is guarantee, hence, Obama's running mate is the master key.
It is very very critical for Obama to do his home work appropriately, to ensure that a compatible running mate is discovered and selected.

Capital "NO".

The combo of the 2 would be a disco moment for the republicans.
Have you ever witnessed 2 naked deers being chased in the jungle by bunch of tigers?

Trust me, the pressure of political dirty games would be too overwhelming for the 2 nice guys; they will never never withstand the tension.

Obama needs a durable, dirty, knowledgeable, popular, and sensational entity.
And I do not know why, but I see the merging of Obama and Hillary Clinton, aka de vulture.

McKren:

Again you have a point and I clearly see where you're coming from; everything you've stated sounds very interesting and good, but only on the paper. The reality is, Americans are very gullible and Obama is still a blackman at the end of the day.

If Acting out of conviction for what we believe is the answer Al Gore would have been the president today. My man, do not let us forget that politician will always be politician; and infact Obama also happens to be a politician, a very good one, who is indirectly ready to do anything to win this presidential election.
We are not trying to elect Pope; please do not let us get carried away with the word "conviction". There is no such thing in politics, especially when a blackman is running for the biggest office in united States.

I don't care what his stance represents, at the end of the day, the dude (Obama) wants to win. And I'm sure that he's not foolish not to pick Hillary.

you can not tell Americans that you are running to change Washington and somehow your number 2 who happens to be someone who should fill in on your behalf in your absence is the same person you have painted a symbol of the old washington politics you are trying to change.

That was the slogan for the primary election; the real election is a different ball game and i'm sure a new slogan will be developed very soon.
The same Romney that stated that McCain represents an expired politician, is now calling  McCain the best man to be the next president of United States. I will not be surprised if Romney is picked as McCain's running mate.
My man, do not be fooled, it is all politics and it takes place on a regular at our various jobs.
(Politics is a dirty game and nice guys are always getting injured)

Finally a Hillary VP will mean Obama will spend more time containing Hillary and Bill Clinton trying to oust him than solving any problems he has promised

Trust me, Bill Clinton would be absolutely out of the picture. The only time you will see this man at the white house would be during special lunching that requires family members or former presidents to be present.
Do not let us forget that Obama as the president has the upper hand at all time.

Furthermore, selecting someone else would only further empower the division that is currently lingering in democratic party. I think the limited time that is available should be intelligently used to pull the party together and focus on getting the big cake.
And this could be accomplished effectively and efficiently only if Hillary is picked as his running mate

Again, Obama might fail if he doesn't pick Hillary "mark it down"

My man, you have a solid point and I'm with you all the way; but unfortunately Americans do not like the truth, they are easily brainwashed and will flipflop with very little hesitation.
Nobody cares about the past (the past represents pure politics). It's now time for them to utilize each other's skill to accomplish this ultimate goal.

Obama doesn't have enough time for an unknown running mate to introduce herself or himself; we need a ready made candidate and Hillary Clinton matches this person.
Hillary doesn't need any introduction; Americans already know what she is capable of doing, they know her good side and the bad side.
The last thing Obama needs is something crazy and negative coming out that is against his running mate (Governor Kathleen Sibelius), this will definitely change the sound of the music and rebounding will be absolutely impossible.

I can guarantee you that at this point, there is nothing anyone could say about Hillary that will negatively affect the decision of the voters.

Yes, Hillary is crazy, selfish, desperate and many many more; but sometimes, it is beneficial to have a partner that is dirty and tough. This bad habit could be advantageous and turn into a priceless asset.

I think Obama might fail if he doesn't pick Hillary!

Eventhough it is crystal clear to all that Obama is a better man; he has a greater chance to bring things together and get United States back on track, but of course, there are still some ignoramus entities out there that know this fact but will never vote for a blackman- just because-
This is why Obama must be extremely systematic in selecting his running mate. Believe it or not, his running mate will be the "Master Key" to the white house.

If his running mate happens to be weak, Mr.Obama could just kiss his chance of being the president of United States good bye.

Personally, I still feel that Hillary Clinton is a better running mate. She has the stamina and unique political skill that would get the job down in November.
The combination of her supporters, connections and magnificent drive coupled with Obama's mighty movement will be deadly and unstopable.

This strategy would simultaneously bring the democratic party back together effectively and bury the republican party for many years to come.
Trust me, McCain wouldn't have a chance (with the amalgamating of Obama and Hillary); probably he would voluntarily drop-out by the end of September when the enormous oppositional intelligence heats up and becomes unbearable.

WHAT CAN WE DO ABOUT CORRUPTIONS IN NIGERIA TO MAKE IT A BETTER PLACE

@LAKANYE~ :

Here goes the only answer to your question, the single solution:

[b]Solution to corruption in Nigeria:

I will put together a group of 50 independent delegates from everywhere in Nigeria, with substantial clearances. Their job is to identify each and every government official that stole from 1980 through 2007.
For a successful outcome, names of these individuals will be made confidential. How much each stole will also be determined.

Each individual will be privately contacted; based on how much individual stole, money to be returned back to Nigeria Federal Government will be determined. All identified corrupt individuals have an option to return specified amount of money with absolutely no question or face uncompromising punishment.
Deadline to return this specified amount of money will also be specified.

After the expiration of the deadline, all individual that cooperated will be pardoned immediately by the Federal Government; while the names of the rest that refused to cooperate will be revealed to the public and they will also be severely punished (eg. 20 years in federal prison and all their accumulated properties will be confiscated by the Federal Government).

Finally, our Constitution will be reviewed and revised.
From Oct 30, 2008, any individual caught engaging in any corruption activities (regardless of the scale) will be executed at his or her home town.

I will also announce vigorously to the entire country that scapegoat is desperately needed.
Guys: That will be the end of corruption in Nigeria; and new Nigeria will be born in a very short period.
Then, we will all witness the real career dedicated politicians, while the business politicians/ business police men will dissolve one at a time

With love, Big B1[/b]

I am confident to say that anything else will be a waste of time and the continuation of an everlasting "pure pepper soup" for just the big boys!

Obama plans to declare victory on May 20

Not long after the polls close in the May 20 Kentucky and Oregon primaries, Barack Obama plans to declare victory in his bid for the Democratic presidential nomination.

And, until at least May 31 and perhaps longer, Hillary Clinton's campaign plans to dispute it.

It's a train wreck waiting to happen, with one candidate claiming to be the nominee while the other vigorously denies it, all predicated on an argument over what exactly constitutes the finish line of the primary race.

The Obama campaign agrees with the Democratic National Committee, which pegs a winning majority at 2,025 pledged delegates and superdelegates--a figure that excludes the penalized Florida and Michigan delegations. The Clinton campaign, on the other hand, insists the winner will need 2,209 to cinch the nomination--a tally that includes Florida and Michigan.

"We don't accept 2,025. It is not the real number because that does not include Florida and Michigan," said Howard Wolfson, one of Clinton's two chief strategists. "It's a phony number."

Wolfson said they intend to contest the DNC's 2,025 number "every day," as well as any declaration of victory made by Obama based upon that number, because it does not include Florida and Michigan.

In January, Clinton won both states by wide margins when Obama did not actively contest them. The two states were stripped of their delegates for holding early primaries not sanctioned by the Democratic National Committee.

Obama will not reach the 2,025 magic number on May 20. Rather, on that date he is all but certain to hit a different threshold--1,627 pledged delegates, which would constitute a winning majority among the 3,253 total pledged delegates if Florida and Michigan are not included.

"On May 20 we're going to declare victory," said an Obama senior advisor who asked that his name be withheld to speak candidly, adding that after those contests they will be "the ones with the most pledged delegates and the most popular votes."

While the nature of that declaration of victory is "still developing," in the advisor's words, the Obama campaign contends that the winner of a majority of pledged delegates should be the party nominee.

"Senator Obama, our campaign and our supporters believe pledged delegates is the most legitimate metric for determining how this race has unfolded," wrote Obama campaign manager David Plouffe Wednesday in a memo to superdelegates. "It is simply the ratification of the DNC rules - your rules - which we built this campaign and our strategy around."

But the Clinton campaign's insistence on counting Florida and Michigan would alter not only the overall delegate math, but the pledged delegate math as well. Because if the two states are included in the count, the total number of pledged delegates would rise from 3,253 to 3,566--which means the magic number for a majority rises to 1,784, not 1,627 as the Obama campaign asserts.

By hewing to that interpretation, the Clinton campaign would thus be able to raise doubts about a May 20 declaration of victory by Obama.

Since the earliest possible resolution of the Florida/Michigan dispute is May 31, when the DNC Rules and Bylaws Committee will meet in Washington to address petitions from Michigan and Florida DNC members, the 11-day period between the May 20 primaries and the RBC meeting could produce a chaotic stretch where Obama claims to be the party nominee while Clinton argues otherwise.

Already, the two campaigns are gearing up for the battle.

"With the Clinton path to the nomination getting even narrower, we expect new and wildly creative scenarios to emerge in the coming days," wrote Plouffe in his memo. "While those scenarios may be entertaining, they are not legitimate and will not be considered legitimate by this campaign or its millions of supporters, volunteers, and donors."

"You can declare mission accomplished but that doesn't mean that the mission has actually been accomplished," Wolfson said.

I think it's time for her to throw the "TAWELL"!

The Five Mistakes Clinton Made

For all her talk about "full speed on to the White House," there was an unmistakably elegiac tone to Hillary Clinton's primary-night speech in Indianapolis. And if one needed further confirmation that the undaunted, never-say-die Clintons realize their bid might be at an end, all it took was a look at the wistful faces of the husband and the daughter who stood behind the candidate as she talked of all the people she has met in a journey "that has been a blessing for me."

It was also a journey she had begun with what appeared to be insurmountable advantages, which evaporated one by one as the campaign dragged on far longer than anyone could have anticipated. She made at least five big mistakes, each of which compounded the others:


1. She misjudged the mood
That was probably her biggest blunder. In a cycle that has been all about change, Clinton chose an incumbent's strategy, running on experience, preparedness, inevitability - and the power of the strongest brand name in Democratic politics. It made sense, given who she is and the additional doubts that some voters might have about making a woman Commander in Chief. But in putting her focus on positioning herself to win the general election in November, Clinton completely misread the mood of Democratic-primary voters, who were desperate to turn the page. "Being the consummate Washington insider is not where you want to be in a year when people want change," says Barack Obama's chief strategist, David Axelrod. Clinton's "initial strategic positioning was wrong and kind of played into our hands." But other miscalculations made it worse:


2. She didn't master the rules
Clinton picked people for her team primarily for their loyalty to her, instead of their mastery of the game. That became abundantly clear in a strategy session last year, according to two people who were there. As aides looked over the campaign calendar, chief strategist Mark Penn confidently predicted that an early win in California would put her over the top because she would pick up all the state's 370 delegates. It sounded smart, but as every high school civics student now knows, Penn was wrong: Democrats, unlike the Republicans, apportion their delegates according to vote totals, rather than allowing any state to award them winner-take-all. Sitting nearby, veteran Democratic insider Harold M. Ickes, who had helped write those rules, was horrified - and let Penn know it. "How can it possibly be," Ickes asked, "that the much vaunted chief strategist doesn't understand proportional allocation?" And yet the strategy remained the same, with the campaign making its bet on big-state victories. Even now, it can seem as if they don't get it. Both Bill and Hillary have noted plaintively that if Democrats had the same winner-take-all rules as Republicans, she'd be the nominee. Meanwhile, the Clinton campaign now acknowledges privately:


3. She underestimated the caucus states
While Clinton based her strategy on the big contests, she seemed to virtually overlook states like Minnesota, Nebraska and Kansas, which choose their delegates through caucuses. She had a reason: the Clintons decided, says an adviser, that "caucus states were not really their thing." Her core supporters - women, the elderly, those with blue-collar jobs - were less likely to be able to commit an evening of the week, as the process requires. But it was a little like unilateral disarmament in states worth 12% of the pledged delegates. Indeed, it was in the caucus states that Obama piled up his lead among pledged delegates. "For all the talent and the money they had over there," says Axelrod, "they - bewilderingly - seemed to have little understanding for the caucuses and how important they would become."


By the time Clinton's lieutenants realized the grave nature of their error, they lacked the resources to do anything about it - in part because:


4. She relied on old money
For a decade or more, the Clintons set the standard for political fund-raising in the Democratic Party, and nearly all Bill's old donors had re-upped for Hillary's bid. Her 2006 Senate campaign had raised an astonishing $51.6 million against token opposition, in what everyone assumed was merely a dry run for a far bigger contest. But something had happened to fund-raising that Team Clinton didn't fully grasp: the Internet. Though Clinton's totals from working the shrimp-cocktail circuit remained impressive by every historic measure, her donors were typically big-check writers. And once they had ponied up the $2,300 allowed by law, they were forbidden to give more. The once bottomless Clinton well was drying up.


Obama relied instead on a different model: the 800,000-plus people who had signed up on his website and could continue sending money his way $5, $10 and $50 at a time. (The campaign has raised more than $100 million online, better than half its total.) Meanwhile, the Clintons were forced to tap the $100 million - plus fortune they had acquired since he left the White House - first for $5 million in January to make it to Super Tuesday and then $6.4 million to get her through Indiana and North Carolina. And that reflects one final mistake:


5. She never counted on a long haul
Clinton's strategy had been premised on delivering a knockout blow early. If she could win Iowa, she believed, the race would be over. Clinton spent lavishly there yet finished a disappointing third. What surprised the Obama forces was how long it took her campaign to retool. She fought him to a tie in the Feb. 5 Super Tuesday contests but didn't have any troops in place for the states that followed. Obama, on the other hand, was a train running hard on two or three tracks. Whatever the Chicago headquarters was unveiling to win immediate contests, it always had a separate operation setting up organizations in the states that were next. As far back as Feb. 21, Obama campaign manager David Plouffe was spotted in Raleigh, N.C. He told the News & Observer that the state's primary, then more than 10 weeks away, "could end up being very important in the nomination fight." At the time, the idea seemed laughable.


Now, of course, the question seems not whether Clinton will exit the race but when. She continues to load her schedule with campaign stops, even as calls for her to concede grow louder. But the voice she is listening to now is the one inside her head, explains a longtime aide. Clinton's calculation is as much about history as it is about politics. As the first woman to have come this far, Clinton has told those close to her, she wants people who invested their hopes in her to see that she has given it her best. And then? As she said in Indianapolis, "No matter what happens, I will work for the nominee of the Democratic Party because we must win in November." When the task at hand is healing divisions in the Democratic Party, the loser can have as much influence as the winner. View this article on Time.com

If Obama wins, he will most likely dissappoint a lot of people who expected to see change b/c you and i know that change does not come like that the change obama preaches will take decades

@toshmann:

Yes, change doesn't come like that (absolutely Nigerian mentality< and this is why most Nigerian leaders get in and do what they do best "pepper soup"). Nobody is willing to give the future a chance.

My man, you have a point or two, but keep in mind that change must start from somewhere.

FYI: Obama has made it clear many times that the change will not happen in Feb 2009; it takes time, but someone must initiate the starting point.

Wow MAMAJAMA, why goat?

With absolutely no question, a Vulture will always be a Vulture; but when the party begins (when Obama is elected), this evil Vulture could be systematically controlled and become a major asset to Obama's administration (the combination of a nice guy and an evil genius always produces an untouchable wonderment).

At this point, I think it would be enormously beneficial if Obama picks Hillary Clinton as his running mate.
It may sound weird and unreasonable (and this is how republicans want it to sound), but if the strategy is put together prudently, I think these parties (Obama and Hillary) could easily take it to the next level together.

Obama as the president will be magnificent
Hillary as the VP will also be great.
Hence, both of them will represent winners at the end of the day.

I think it is now time for them to immediately forget the past, realize how sweet the big cake would be and get back on track together before it's too late.

FYI: Repulicans are deeply terrified to see the amalgamate of the two.
The ticket (Obama and Hillary) will automatically disable the republicans for the next 16 years.

MAMAJAMA:

Should we go there?

Guys, if you read the comments closely from this article, you will quickly realize how much love these folks have for Nigerians.
They feel that all Nigerians are criminals.

"Nothing good comes out of Nigeria" This is one of the comments made by an American on this article.

Instead of us bashing Mr. Aina and posting rubbish on Nairaland, I think we should focus more on educating these dead heads, by sharing wonderful things that have come out of Nigeria.

The percentage of Internet scam criminals in Nigeria or from Nigeria is less than 2%. It is unfair and unreasonable to label the entire country as criminals based on the actions of less than 2%.

I think we should all wake up and fight for our great image.
Revisit the link   http://www.topix.net/forum/source/nbc4/TTGPHEUMOHI24QQA8     and let these folks know that Nigerians are incredible

It is never a good look for an old man (like McCain) to be involved in a dirty political game; especially when his opponent is as young as Obama.

eg: Bob Dole tried to be dirty against Bill Clinton few years ago, and he fell big time. Today, the poor man (Bob Dole) is still paying for the failure.

BigB1 stick to Nigerian politics my friend. lol

American politics is very educational; we must pay attention and use some of these strategies to successfully run for the Ajegunle local government position in few years.

I assume his running mate would be from the republican party. Why wasn't the running mate (whoever it may be) nominated as the flag bearer in the first place?

Some running mates are very strong, but not strong enough to be the main flag bearer.

Absolutely, his running mate will be a popular, lovable red neck republican, who doesn't give a shit about black folks

Americans are scared, broke, divided and pretty much desperate for a solution to all their problems.

It is very clear to many that McCain represents an extention of Bush. And I'm not sure if anyone over there is willing to deal with Bush and his boys for another 4 years.

Obama has a chance!

Trust me, McCain is not a clean man. He's only throwing jabs at this time to stay in the mix.
When the real show begins, any jabs from him might back-fire.

He knows to be careful.
He's a very weak opponent; and the republicans know this fact too. This is also one of the main reasons he's taking his time to discover an attractive running mate.

FYI:McCain is not the key; his running mate will be the main key to the White House

But I think Obama has a chance.

Looking at things from other angle, I think Hillary and Rev. Wrong have done Obama a big favor.
Hillary has already exposed this man negatively; she vigorously dragged him on the floor for many months.
Rev Wrong on the other hand also came out early to flex his defective ego during the primary election.

It will be retarded and a turn-off if McCain, at his old age tries to use any of these dirty strategies. I think Hillary and Rev. Wrong have already done the dirty job; nothing is new to the voters.
Furthermore, it is never a good look for an old man (like McCain) to be involved in a dirty political game; especially when his opponent is as young as Obama.

FYI: McCain hasn't really been touched negatively as yet; he had a pretty easy primary. And I'm sure that voters are curious to know more about McCain.

Hence, I think McCain and Obama will focus more on getting United States as a country back on track.
