For everyone here in Ohio and across America who's been ever been counted out but refused to be knocked out, for everyone who has stumbled but stood right back up, and for everyone who works hard and never gives up -- this one is for you . ~ Hillary Clinton said before supporters in Columbus. I thank Jehovah God for Senator Hillary Clinton as she won the most crucial battles of the Democratic presidential race for the nomination Tuesday in Texas, Ohio and Rhode Island and only lost in Vermont where Senator Barack Obama won nine of the fifteen delegates at stake. Hillary Clinton disappointed many key figures in the Democratic Party and millions of the fanatics of Barack Obama who were rehearsing their "Hillary's Ignominious Finale" for the world premiere today, but God changed the script overnight and gave us a new script, "Hillary Clinton's Victorious Come Back!" As Barack Obama won 11 Democratic presidential primaries and caucuses in a row, most peopl...

The most popular American presidential candidates, Senators Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton have been spending hundreds of thousands of dollars on political bribery. Christine Escobar's "Obama, Clinton Fill Superdelegates' Wallets" is all the proof I need to confirm that American politicians are corrupt. Even, the so called "Mr. Change" Senator Barack Obama, who is boasting to change the corrupt political tactics of Washington has been bribing the Super Delegates to endorse him! The following politicians are on a long list of the Super Delegates Barack Obama bribed. 1. Rep. Bruce Braley of Iowa - $16,000. 2. Sen. Tom Harkin of Iowa - $10,000. Rep. Melissa Bean (IL) - $19,000 Others included, Rep. Leonard Boswell (IA), Rep. Joe Baca (CA), Rep. Dennis Cardoza (CA), and Rep. Tim Mahoney (FL). Some received $18,826 and $19,000 each. Hillary Clinton also bribed many Super Delegates. Let me spell it out to you in CAPS. POLITICAL BRIBERY IS BRIBERY. See P...

Barack Obama emulates Ronald Reagan: What an Irony! The Clintons have been castigated by Senator Barack Obama , his camp, surrogates and fanatics, for their critical dismissal of Obama’s approval of the so called visionary ideas of the late Ronald Reagan , the former President of America. Senator Barack Obama made the statement in an interview with the Reno Gazette Journal on Monday, January 15, 2008, before the Nevada Caucuses. Here is the link to the video on the Reno Gazette Journal , but I have decided to show you the YouTube video to save you from the trouble. Most readers and viewers did not know that Barack Obama deliberately highlighted the policy of Ronald Reagan and the Republicans to woo the Republican voters and other admirers of Ronald Reagan to caucus and vote for him. It was part of his political campaign strategy as Katharine O. Seelye accurately noted in her commentary on the New York Times of January 21, 2008. "Remember the context. Mr. Obama is speaking to v...

NEWSWEEK: Cover: Hillary Clinton: 'I Found my own Voice.' "What I realized is that the reason I do this, why I get up every day, why I believe in our country and the importance of leadership, was not getting across the way that I wanted it to," Clinton tells Newsweek. Editor Jon Meacham on Hillary, Race and Gender NEW YORK, Jan. 13 /PRNewswire/ -- In the January 21 issue, "'I found my own voice.'" (on newsstands Monday, January 14) Newsweek Editor Jon Meacham examines Hillary Clinton's dramatic comeback win in New Hampshire and whether the battle for the Democratic nomination is one that will be determined by the historically complicated issues of race and gender. (Logo: http://www.newscom.com/cgi-bin/prnh/20080113/NYSA004 ) To say it is late in the game for a major politician to have found one's voice is too glib, Meacham writes. Many public figures are works in progress, and they are all certainly human. Clinton's primary victory is a n...

There were hot exchanges between the supporters of Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama over The Oprah Winfrey show in Iowa , South Carolina, and New Hampshire . The following is the summary of my comments on the washingtonpost.com , Huff Post News and Topix . Oprah Winfrey and Senator Barack Obama need a reality check, because they are politically naïve and unrealistic. Barack Obama does not really know what it means to be the President of the greatest nation on earth and the challenges of leading the world. I have been well informed on the global role of America on earth, so, I can say who is capable of becoming the next President of the United States of America and that American patriot is, Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton, proud wife, mother and role model for American girls and women. Oprah Winfrey is neither a wife nor a mother and has no clue on raising children; talk less of leading a nation. I am disappointed that a black woman who refused to marry and does not want to have...

"When people think I am a one-dimensional person, I realize they haven't done their homework on me ... I've been a governor for 10 years, and to have the resume I've built over that time on education, health care, transportation, the environment and jobs ... all that stuff is important and says a lot about what kind of governor I was and what kind of president I would be."

Dear Orikinla, It has been 316 days since we started this journey. I've been working my heart out from the very first day of this campaign, because your support deserves nothing less.

Think about what we can accomplish if we win. We can finally end the war in Iraq. We can make sure every last man, woman, and child in this country has affordable, quality health care. ...

When I read the report on "Oprah Winfrey, Bill Clinton Bring Star Power to Iowa" , I was really amused by Oprah Winfrey's self-esteem of her popularity and her political naivety. Oprah Winfrey is overrating her charisma. The leadership of America is more than a TV Talk Show and Campaign 2008 is not a Black versus White battle of wits. From most of the comments online, Oprah Winfrey is not a big plus to Barack Obama. In fact, Obama would likely lose more voters who are not fans of Oprah Winfrey. Lest we forget, Oprah Winfrey once misled millions of Americans into buying a fake book! Americans now are wiser.
