Kennedy Plans to Back Obama Over Clinton

BIRMINGHAM, Ala. — Senator Edward M. Kennedy intends to endorse the presidential candidacy of Senator Barack Obama during a rally on Monday in Washington, associates to both men confirmed, a decision that squarely pits one American political dynasty against another.The expected endorsement, coming after Mr. Obama’s commanding victory over Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton in the South Carolina Democratic primary on Saturday, may give Mr. Obama further momentum in his campaign for the nomination. Of all the endorsements in the Democratic Party, Mr. Kennedy’s is viewed as among the most influential.

Senator Barack Obama talked to reporters on a flight from Macon, Ga., to Birmingham, Ala., on Sunday.

The Massachusetts senator had vowed to stay out of the presidential nominating fight, but as the contest expanded into a state-by-state fight and given the tone of the race in the last week associates said he was moved to announce his support for Mr. Obama.Mrs. Clinton said Sunday that she had not expected to get the endorsement, yet aides conceded that they hoped Mr. Kennedy would remain neutral. The endorsement will be announced at a rally at American University on Monday, hours before the State of the Union Address at the Capitol. One day after defeating Mrs. Clinton in South Carolina by 28 points, Mr. Obama flew to Georgia to speak at a church service before traveling on to Alabama for a rally.Both states are among those holding primaries in the next stop in the Democratic presidential nominating fight on Feb. 5.Mr. Kennedy, the latest in a string of senators to get behind Mr. Obama, is said by associates to be drawn to the Illinois senator because of his ability to motivate a new generation of Democrats. His niece, Caroline Kennedy, made a similar argument in an Op-Ed piece in The New York Times on Sunday.“For somebody who, I think, has been such an important part of our national imagination and who generally shies away from involvement in day-to-day politics to step out like that is something that I’m very grateful for,” Mr. Obama told reporters on Sunday, referring to Ms. Kennedy.During Mr. Obama’s three years in the Senate, he has worked to build allies and gain friendships with many of his colleagues. While Mr. Kennedy and Mr. Obama have not been particularly close, Mr. Obama quickly gained the admiration of the Kennedy family.Besides providing Mr. Obama with an important boost for his campaign, his strong victory in South Carolina also raised questions about the Clinton camp’s strategy of aggressive attacks on him. But in an interview on Sunday on the CBS News program “Face the Nation,” Mrs. Clinton said she would not back off from taking shots at her chief rival’s positions, saying, “It’s important we draw these contrasts.”“The idea that somehow someone’s record, someone’s words are off-limits, I’ve never seen that in American politics,” Senator Clinton added.With each of the top Democrats having notched two primary victories, it appears increasingly likely that the party’s presidential nominating fight could extend well beyond the multistate primary elections on Feb. 5. John Edwards, the former North Carolina senator, received 18 percent of the vote in South Carolina. Despite the disappointing finish by Mr. Edwards, who was born in South Carolina, the former senator insisted that he will remain in the race. Mr. Edwards’s delegates could eventually play a key role in the fight between Mr. Obama and Mrs. Clinton.The next big contest comes on Tuesday in Florida. In the Republican race, Senator John McCain received the endorsement of the state’s popular Republican governor, Charlie Crist. On Sunday, Mr. McCain again assailed the Iraq policies of a top rival, Mitt Romney, castigating the former Massachusetts governor for having suggested earlier some sort of unannounced timetable for withdrawal.“Governor Romney obviously said there have to be ‘timetables,” although they had to be secret,” McCain said on “Meet the Press” on NBC. “If we had done that, as the Democrats and some Republicans wanted to do, we would have lost that surge and al-Qaeda would be celebrating a victory over the United States of America.”Mr. Romney has demanded an apology from Mr. McCain, saying the Arizona senator had been dishonest in his description.The Florida primary could be critical for the Republican campaign of Rudolph W. Giuliani, the former New York mayor. Mr. Giuliani on Sunday predicted victory in Florida, seeing the large number of early absentee votes cast so far as a helpful sign and saying his tax-cutting promises were resonating with voters. As of Friday night, nearly 400,000 party Republicans had cast early votes, compared with the 200,000 who cast votes at this point in 2006. Florida is one of 37 states to permit early voting, and Mr. Giuliani has made an effort to get his supporters to vote early over the past month.Democratic candidates are now taking their campaigns to states like California and New York for contests that hold vast numbers of delegates. Tuesday’s primary in Florida will play an unusual role in this election because the Democratic National Committee has said it would not seat Florida’s delegates because the state is holding the primary earlier than party rules apply.Democratic candidates have not actively campaigned in Florida because of the party’s decision, but that does not mean a race has not been conducted by Florida supporters of Mrs. Clinton and Mr. Obama. As of Friday night, nearly 350,000 Democrats had cast early votes exceeding the turnout in Iowa, New Hampshire and Nevada and party officials predicted that roughly 400,000 will have voted by election day.As Mr. Obama flew here on Sunday, he smiled when asked by reporters about Mr. Kennedy’s plans, saying: “I’ve had ongoing conversations with Ted since I’ve got into this race.” He learned of Mr. Kennedy’s decision through a telephone call on Thursday, aides said, three days before the South Carolina primary.

Caroline Kennedy, daughter of President John F. Kennedy, endorses Barack Obama:

"Over the years," she writes, "I've been deeply moved by the people who've told me they wished they could feel inspired and hopeful about America the way people did when my father was president. This sense is even more profound today. That is why I am supporting a presidential candidate in the Democratic primaries, Barack Obama." More: "I want a president who understands that his responsibility is to articulate a vision and encourage others to achieve it; who holds himself, and those around him, to the highest ethical standards; who appeals to the hopes of those who still believe in the American Dream, and those around the world who still believe in the American ideal; and who can lift our spirits, and make us believe again that our country needs every one of us to get involved." "I have never had a president who inspired me the way people tell me that my father inspired them. But for the first time, I believe I have found the man who could be that president  not just for me, but for a new generation of Americans.

, but bill clinton has made it a racial affair,

The Clinton Propaganda machine is just trying to paint Barack Obama as nothing more than a one hit wonder that can only appeal to African Americans.

Yup because there are more whites in other parts of the country. Lets see how he does there.

Iowa is one of [b]the "whitest" state [/b]in America with 97% white population,but most of the whites voted for Barack Obama in Iowa.

Imagine what it must feel like running against two Clintons, and beating them. The one thing Hillary should consider is before Bill began his campaign of lies and mis-information the polls showed that Hillary had about 50% of the black vote. Many of the white and black voters did not like Bill’s tactics and that is probably why Obama's win was so impressive.

Get your facts right it seems you are not really paying close attention to the race, every political pundit and analyst is blaming the clintons for injecting race into the campaign and you are here saying its the black people .

Yes,it is the Clinton who injected Race into the campaign and the Clinton attack machine is trying to paint Barack Obama as nothing more than a one hit wonder that can only appeal to African Americans.

i wouldnt be so quick to call this a rout horus, at least half of democratic voters were black. . . wait until Obama routs Clinton with majority white voters.

97% of Iowa is white,and Barack Obama win in Iowa,he already beat Hillary in a state with majority white voters.

Can you believe the Margin by which Presidential Candidate Barack Obama took South Carolina? One newspaper called it a "Rout" of Hillary.I hope that the people realizes the "transformation" that America has undergone to the point an Afro-American must now be considered a serious Presidential Candidate and he has done it with flair, class, and style!!.Barack Obama is an incredibly smart man, he's by far the brightest bulb in the race.

Barack Obama wins South Carolina

Barack Obama has won the South Carolina Democratic primary by a substantial margin, the Associated Press and cable networks reported Saturday night based on exit polls.It remains unclear whether Hillary Rodham Clinton or John Edwards will place second in the state.
Rep. James Clyburn (D-S.C.), the dean of black South Carolina politicians, who was neutral in the race, said voters in his state rejected racial questions raised in the last days of the campaign.
"I really believe in the last 48 hours, the voters recoiled," he said on MSNBC. "They decided to reject the racial animus that seemed to be happening."

[img]http://www.theage.com.au/ffximage/2007/02/09/W_OBAMA_wideweb__470x287,0.jpg[/img]

Obama won 81 percent of black voters and 24 percent of the white vote. Clinton took 17 percent of the black vote and 36 percent of the white vote and John Edwards 29 percent of the white vote and just 1 percent of the black vote, according to exit polls reported on MSNBC.
According to exit polls, half the electorate felt the economy is the most important issue facing the nation. South Carolina's primary, the last for Democrats before two dozen states vote Feb. 5, saw Obama and Clinton battle in the most divisive effort so far in the presidential campaign.

https://www.obamayouth.com/images/small_obama_image.jpg

Exit polls show South Carolina Democrats placed more importance on the economy than did New Hampshire voters. About 1 in 5 South Carolinians selected Iraq as the most important issue and a quarter picked health care.Three in four voters said the nation is ready to elect either an African American or a woman president.Not surprisingly, 3 in 4 Obama voters said Clinton attacked Obama unfairly during the campaign and slightly fewer than half accused their own candidate of attacking Clinton unfairly. Also, two-thirds of Clinton voters said Obama attacked her unfairly and nearly as many said she attacked him unfairly.Edwards, the former North Carolina senator, was well behind Clinton and Obama in pre-election polls but hoped the bad blood between the two front-runners would send voters his way.But the attacks likely didn't keep voters from the polls. Carol Fowler, the state's Democratic chairwoman, told MSNBC Saturday afternoon that the state was experiencing record turnout without significant problems.Polls showed Obama, the Illinois senator, and Clinton, the New York senator, divided South Carolina's voters along racial lines. Obama held a large lead among the state's black voters, who comprise about half the electorate, and Clinton and Edwards were expected to take the vast majority of the white vote.Obama campaigned Saturday morning in Columbia at a black Baptist church and at Benedict College, a historically black school. Clinton and her daughter, Chelsea, greeted voters at a Shoney's restaurant in Columbia."There's talk about being prepared on day one," Obama said in an interview with NBC's Today Show Saturday morning. "What we really need is somebody who's right on day one."Meanwhile, former President Bill Clinton mocked Obama's message of change at a diner in Columbia. "Since a hundred percent of medical malpractice is committed by doctors, next time you need surgery, go to an electrician," the former president said after a breakfast of grits, coffee and three helpings of eggs.In Mount Pleasant, Edwards stopped at a café and a polling place, where he admitted he is unlikely to win the state but still hopes to win the party's nomination.Edwards tried to take advantage of the attacks flying between Clinton and Obama during a midweek appearance on "The Late Show with David Letterman." Edwards said he hoped to represent "the grown-up wing of the Democratic Party."South Carolina has 54 delegates to August's Democratic National Convention, 45 of which are at stake Saturday.It is also the first primary state with a large black population. A Democrat needs 2,025 of 4,049 delegates to win the nomination. Clinton, of New York, so far has 210 delegates, Obama, of Illinois, has 123 and Edwards has 52, according to delegate counts done by CNN and the greenpages.com, a nonpartisan Web site that compiles election statistics.
After election contests in largely-white Iowa and New Hampshire and Nevada, which has a large Latino but tiny black population, race dominated the week's news from South Carolina.Obama and Clinton engaged in the most bitter debate of the campaign Monday night in Myrtle Beach and the two squabbled over comments made by Bill Clinton.
Sen. Clinton and Obama swapped accusatory radio commercials earlier in the week.The former first lady aired an ad saying Obama had once approved of Republican ideas. His camp responded quickly: "Hillary Clinton will say anything to get elected." First she, then he, pulled the commercials after a couple of days.Obama Saturday won endorsements from the editorial boards of the Philadelphia Inquirer and the St. Louis Post-Dispatch. Missouri and Illinois, where the Post-Dispatch circulates, are two of nearly two dozen states voting Feb. 5.The Inquirer's endorsement could influence voters in New Jersey and Delaware, which also vote Feb. 5. Pennsylvania does not vote until April.Clinton hopes to become the first woman to occupy the White House, and Obama is the strongest black contender in history.

Nigeria's fate in the balance, as they face Mali Today

Accra, Ghana - The Super Eagles of Nigeria will have their fate squarely hanging on the scale, as they seek to register their first win at Ghana 2008 in their second match at the Sekondi Sports Stadium against the Eagles of Mali Today.Yes indeed. It will be a fight of the Eagles and a fierce one, and Nigeria must ensure the scale does not tilt in favour of their opponents else the dreams of the most populous country in Africa will be utterly shattered.While the Malian Eagles will be looking for a win that will guarantee their qualification to the next round, the Super Eagles face elimination, shame and disgrace should they falter the second time, having lost by a lone goal to Cote d'Ivoire in their first match.It is this scenario that puts the Nigerians in a precarious position, with their heads in the hangman's noose, waiting to be condemned to early elimination, as they line up against skipper Mamoudu Diara and his compatriots.

Mali

Though the Super Eagles arrived in Ghana with a full arsenal that includes star actors from the English Premiership, raising the hopes of their countrymen for a third title to make real their belief in the coronation of their team after every 14 years, they are now faced with reality and chances are that nervousness and stage fright will overwhelm the team against Mali.Kanu Nwankwo, Danny Shittu, Joseph Yobo, Yakubu Aiyegbeni, Obafemi Martins, John Utaka and Mikel Obi are some of the Nigerian players who receive rave reviews in the British media week after week.Whether their good form in England will be carried over to the continental championship or not, Today's challenge from the Malians will provide clues to the question.And with Mali fully loaded to the hilt, particularly in attack where Frederick Kanoute is the arrowhead, ably supported by Seydou Keita and skipper Mamoudu Diara, the Malians have the capacity to score goals.If Diarra Souleymane, Diakite Drissa, Coulibaly Adama and Dramane Traore find their rhythm, the Malian Eagles will be oiled enough to glide tireless and pose "a go home" threat to the Nigerians.The technical benches of the two sides will have a major role to play in this cliff hanger of a fixture.Group B pacesetters, Cote d'Ivoire who beat Nigeria 1-0 on he opening day have a tricky assignment against Benin in the other match of the Sekondi venue.On paper, Didier Drogba and his compatriots are miles ahead of the Squirrels of Benin, who, however, have very dangerous customers in Razack Omotoyosi, Stephane Sessegnon and Mouritala Ogunbiyi.On a good day the trio can cause havoc to any team and the Elephants must be mindful of an impending danger should they decide to underrate Benin.Kolo Toure, Emmanuel Ebue and their colleagues at the back will have to be vigilant, while Salomon Kalou, Aruna Dindane and Drogba concentrate on their attacking duties to avoid an upset.A win for Cote d'Ivoire will see them through to the second round with one round of matches to play while a win for Benin will throw the group wide open.

Nigeria 'condemned to win' versus Mali

Nigeria said they are 'condemned to win' against Mali in a decisive 2008 Africa Cup of Nations Group B tie on Friday, if they are to stay on course for their third championship triumph.Super Eagles, two-time winners of the Nations Cup, lost their opening match of the tournament to Ivory Coast and are bottom of the standings after Mali beat Benin for the maximum points. "We have no choice but to beat Mali. We are condemned to win that game as well as our final match against Benin," said Nice defender Onyekachi Apam. "We have the quality to win this cup but we have to prove it on the pitch."

Our ancestors knew about which God? Obviously not Yahweh because they were  serving gods made by the hands of men. God is not in those objects - the bible gives a complete description of idols in Psalms 115:

I have nothing to with idols.
But Christians are the biggest Idols worshipers[/B]. Just go to their church and you will see that they worship a  [b]man-made statue representing this Jesus.
This statue of jesus is the work of men’s hands: an idol.

Exposing Bill and Hillary's criminal activity.-- Amazing Video!!!

The Clinton Chronicles was originally released in June of 1994. The videotape
had a very big impact, according to some, on the 1994 elections. The Chronicles was put together because there were several people, not only in Arkansas, but across the nation, that had documented evidence of criminal activity that involved Bill and Hillary Clinton. That evidence was never allowed to be in court. The media refused to expose this evidence.The people who prepared this film took the time and the effort to allow the people and the investigators involved to bring the evidence to you, the people, to view. What you’re about to see you’re not going to believe.[/b]Some of you will say, "How could this happen?" All I ask you to do is sit back, view what we have and listen to what we have to say. You make your
own judgment.

It's now or never for Bafana

South Africa go into their African Nations Cup opener against Angola on Wednesday knowing they need to win if they are to have a realistic hope of advancing to the knock-out stages of the tournament.Coach Carlos Alberto Parreira has tried his hardest to manage the expectations of a demanding nation, stressing he is building for 2010, but results are what really matters and the veteran Brazilian will want to get his campaign off to the best possible start."It is important to remember that our target is mainly to play good football and use this tournament to build for 2010," said Parreira, before showing his winning mentality by adding: "We have to dream about being champions though. If we don't then we should rather not be here." Drawn in Group D alongside Angola, Tunisia and Senegal, Bafana Bafana are certainly the favourites to finish bottom.

https://dev.football365.co.za/site_images/Bafana-Bafana.jpg

Their cause has not been made any easier by the withdrawal, through injury, of first choice keeper Rowen Fernandez. The Arminia Bielefeld stopper is suffering from a broken finger and is replaced by Wits' Moeneeb Josephs.Fernandez aside, Parreira has the rest of his squad available. Skipper Aaron Mokoena looks certain to start in the holding midfield role where his lack of pace and laboured turn are less obvious than at centre back.
The Blackburn Rovers stalwart will almost certainly be joined by four others in midfield with Parreira unlikely to tamper with the 4-5-1 formation he has preferred to date. Siphiwe Tshabalala and Teko Modise will lend an attacking air to the midfield. Sibusiso Zuma will fulfill the role of lone striker with Terror Fanteni set to start from the bench.But while the Bafana side is undoubtedly talented, they come up well short in the experience department. Mokoena and Steven Pienaar boast good European credentials, while Zuma is a veteran who has paid his dues in Europe without ever really making the headlines.

https://www.soccer-weblog.com/50226711/images/bafanabafana.jpg

"Sure, they might be going to the Nations Cup for the first time, but a lot of them have played the game at junior international level as well as inter-club and this will stand them in good stead in Ghana," commented Bafana Bafana assistant coach Pitso Mosimane. "Some of these boys have been on the field against Italy, Scotland and Canada and they competed admirably. And since those matches I've seen just how confident they are," enthused Mosimane, who added:  "These boys are a different breed." But in Angola, Bafana Bafana come up against a team full of solid and disciplined players. There are few stars on show but the majority of the squad play their club football in Europe and the squad that has travelled to Ghana includes 16 of the 23 players who did duty in the World Cup last year.Angola more than held their own in Germany in 2006 where they lost 1-0 to Portugal before holding Iran and Mexico to draws. Key players for the Palancas Negras will be strikers Manucho Goncalves, who is set to join Manchester United after the tournament, and Flavio as well as Leeds United defender Rui Marques and tireless Benfica midfielder Zé Kalanga.Not surprisingly the talk emanating from the Angolan camp has been fighting. "We know your team has some experienced players, such as Aaron Mokoena, Sibusiso Zuma and others and we won’t underestimate them," assistant coach Filemon Roneu told The Sowetan."We are looking forward to teaching them a free soccer lesson on Wednesday," he added.

Squads:

South Africa:

Rowen Fernandez, Moeneeb Josephs, Itumeleng Khune, Vuyo Mere, Bryce Moon, Benson Mhlongo, Bevan Fransman, Tsepo Masilela, Brett Evans, Nasief Morris, Aaron Mokoena, Kagiso Dikgacoi, Elrio van Heerden, Lance Davids, Surprise Moriri, Siphiwe Tshabalala, Steven Pienaar, Teko Modise, Excellent Walaza, Thembinkosi Fanteni, Lerato Chabangu, Katlego Mphela, Sibusiso Zuma.

Angola:

Lama, Mário, Nuno, Locó, Jamba, Yamba Asha, Luis Delgado, Kali, Machado, Marco Airosa, Rui Marques, Mabina, Nelo, Gilberto, André Macanga, Maurito, Figueiredo, Mendonça, Dedé, Édson, Zé Kalanga, Mateus, Flávio, Diangi Matusiwa, Love, Manucho Goncalves, Santana, Pedro Henriques, Minguito.

[size=14pt]Kenya: Amnesty International Condemns Excessive Use of Force by Police
[/size]
Amnesty International today condemned the reckless and excessive use of lethal force by the Kenyan police, as reports emerged of the killings of at least twelve people including a 13 year old boy by police during protests called by the opposition Orange Democratic Movement (ODM).
“We recognise that the Kenyan police are trying to contain what in some cases have been violent protests in Kenya. However, by firing live ammunition into crowds the police have far exceeded what is acceptable use of force. The firing of live ammunition into crowds can not be justified,” said Erwin van der Borght, Director of Amnesty International’s Africa Programme.

[img]http://images.google.com/url?q=http://a.abcnews.com/images/International/035516c9-6239-4eb4-9f06-0763914ee439_ms.jpeg&usg=AFQjCNFC1_nX_XIxQTzhiQQaaxMOGAs-EQ[/img]

In one incident, captured on video by a local television station, an unarmed protestor in Kisumu was shot at close range by a Kenyan police officer who then kicked him while he lay wounded on the ground. The man reportedly died later from the bullet wound.In a number of other incidents, protestors and bystanders in Kibera, an informal settlement in Nairobi, were reported to have been shot by police who were preventing residents from travelling to the city centre for the mass protest rally called by the opposition. Kibera, inhabited by many of the opposition party’s supporters, has been the site of considerable post-election violence.
“The government must immediately send clear instructions to the police to stop this excessive use of force, conduct an independent and impartial inquiry into the police killings, and prosecute any police officers who have used excessive force against protesters,” said van der Borght.

https://blogs.usatoday.com/ondeadline/images/2007/06/07/kenya_2.jpg

Amnesty International is also concerned at reports that journalists covering the protests and the police response have been harassed, and that human rights defenders protesting the use of excessive force by Kenyan security forces have been arrested.
"The Kenyan government must respect the right to freedom of expression and peaceful assembly throughout Kenya,” said van der Borght. “It is only through the respect for human rights that the country will be able to resolve the political crisis it is now facing,”

https://www.nazret.com/blog/media/blogs/new/police_beating.jpg

Since 30 December 2007, over 600 people are reported to have been killed and thousands injured during violence that erupted following the announcement of the disputed election results. Over 250,000 have been internally displaced.
Under the UN Code of Conduct for Law Enforcement Officials and the UN Basic Principles on the Use of Force and Firearms by Law Enforcement Officials,police may use force only when strictly necessary and only to the extent required for the performance of their duty.   Firearms should not be used except to defend people against the imminent threat of death or serious injury or to prevent a grave threat to life, and only when less extreme means are insufficient. Intentional lethal force should not be used except when strictly unavoidable in order to protect life.

For previous statements, please see Kenya: Amnesty International concerned at police killings in election protests issued on 31 December 2007 and Kenya: Amnesty International condemns killings in post-election violence, issued on 3 January 2008.

Is it not two front-runners or three?
1-Barack Obama
2-Hilary Clinton
3-Bill Clinton?

Why Bill Clinton is participating to this debate?
Who is running against who?
Is Bill Clinton running for President?or Hilary Clinton?
Are there three people in this debate, not two?
This is confusing!!

During the second world war,the french resistance group was considered terrorists by the germans,but for the frenchs the resistance group was something very good.
For me this is playing with the word "terrorist".
