At the risk of being redundant, I'll try to give my reasoning why I and others think Barack Hussein Obama can not help the country. Since his resume is a blank page - never had a real job in his life; no executive experience which has required making decisions that have significant consequences - we have only his voting record and his past/present associations with people and organizations to tell us who this guy is. Forget about his or any other politician's campaign promises - they mean nothing. We know the following facts:

1. His voting record is the MOST LIBERAL IN THE ENTIRE SENATE
2. During his brief tenure there he has sponsored NO SIGNIFICANT LEGISLATION whatsoever and displayed no leadership ability.
3. He has been heavily involved with ACORN as a community organizer and it's General Counsel. His campaign contributed over $800,000 to one of ACORN's front groups to facilitate their voter registration efforts, for which they're being investigated in twelve different states for voter registration fraud and other campaign violations.
4. His close personal associates include Ayers the terrorist, who to this day wishes he had set off more bombs and caused more damage and death of innocents during the 60s & 70s; Tony Rezko, the Syrian born convicted shyster who awaits sentencing to federal prison; his mentor Rev. Wright, the black racist, black separatist minister of 20 years who has admittedly been his mentor and close confidant who performed his marriage ceremony and Baptised his two daughters; and last but not least, his lovely bride who wrote her thesis on black separatism and is now finally proud of her country. These are now and have been his comrades and will be the types of radicals he chooses for his cabinet, his advisors and his judicial appointments if he is elected. The fact that he was eight years old when Ayers was blowing up things is irrelevant - Ayers is a left-wing radical now just as he was then.

To compare these voluntary and willing associations with McCain's time as a POW is beyond absurd. For anyone who doesn't understand what a prisoner is, it's someone who is taken captive against his will. Throw in a few years of torture and you start to get the picture of what it was like being a POW during the Vietnam War - that hardly constitutes an "association."

Making soaring speeches and being "cool" in debates is fine for showmanship, but this aptitude hardly qualifies one for being able to handle the most demanding job in the world. Obama is the MOST LIBERAL, MOST UNPREPARED and LEAST QUALIFIED presidential candidate from one of the two major parties this country has ever had. His personna is entirely a media creation. McCain is certainly not ideal, but he's far and away more prepared for this position than Obama.
