Hilary was also for withdrawal from Iraq. Would the gun companies have put a gun in her head too? The man has won. Get with the program!!

we are just discussing and not fighting. What’s wrong in discussing raw politics? Why must we always argue on this forum.Can we all just get along

All u Clinton supporters! You are just like you chief madam. U go yarn the thing finish, then you go say na joke, or na slip of tongue or na discussion. Talk true, u no want the man win general election because your woman did not win. I don't care whether you go for McCain or not o, its your prerogative. But stop bad mouthing the man. He has made history. Be happy for him. Ehn? That is how to be a gracious loser. And who knows, your woman may get her chance later, afterall, Obama's opponent is 73yrs old. Its never too late. So stop all the bad talk. Do not be a sore loser ehn?

Thanks.

WASHINGTON - Barack Obama turned in earnest to the general election and the hunt for a running mate Wednesday, embraced by Democratic leaders who signaled forcefully and sometimes impatiently to Hillary Rodham Clinton that her marathon duel with Obama was over. Clinton kept her silence in public, while supporters made a case for her as Obama's No. s .Obama himself moved to link himself more closely with a young Democratic hero of a half-century ago, picking President Kennedy's daughter Caroline to help him choose a vice president. Shimney una conspiracy don really work. we go enta fasting now

Oprah 'doing the happy dance' over Obama win

Posted: 08:12 PM ET

Oprah hit the trail for Obama during the primary season.
(CNN) — Oprah Winfrey is ecstatic over Barack Obama’s apparent victory in this year’s Democratic presidential race.

"I'm euphoric, I've been doing the happy dance all day,” she said in a statement released Wednesday I'm so proud of Barack and Michelle and what this means for all of us, the new possibilities for our country.”

The talk show host, who campaigned for Obama in several key early primary states, added: “And if he wants me to, I'm ready to go door to door."

Commentary: Obama nomination gives 'goose bumps' - CNN.com

By Bishop T.D. Jakes

Editor's note: Bishop T.D. Jakes is founder and senior pastor of The Potter's House of Dallas, Texas, a multiracial, nondenominational church with more than 50 outreach ministries.

"I congratulate Sen. Obama on this historic accomplishment," writes Bishop T.D. Jakes.

1 of 2 (CNN) -- Last night, I like most Americans of all stripes, watched with visible goose bumps as history was made. I sat with my 13-year-old son and looked from the screen to his eyes as Sen. Barack Obama became the first African American in history to lead a U.S. major-party ticket when he claimed the nomination for the Democratic Party for president of the United States.

I congratulate Sen. Obama on this historic accomplishment. I thank him for accepting the torch that was lit by our forefathers and proudly carrying it through the darkness of our struggles, trials and tribulations, bringing light and hope to a new generation, and for facing all those who said "No" and "You can't win," or "It will never happen," and firmly, proudly, defiantly saying, "Yes I can!"

However, what I really hope people take away from that night is that this is not just a victory for African Americans, it is a victory for democracy that proves that our country provides possibilities for all people. It is also a sign that a metamorphosis is in progress. Today we saw that Americans respect experience, but are interested in change. I hope that we can somehow merge the best ideas of our differences and emerge with a president who epitomizes our highest and best ideals. While it remains unclear where we are going, last night proves that we as a people have moved beyond business as usual.

sooooo....i hope that adequate arrangements are being made for the safety of his grandma and other family members in Kenya.

i was listening to a BBC Africa podcast and the journalist was interviewing obama's grandma after his win, and he said journalists had been streaming in and out of her house.

they need to restrict access to her biko, people are crazy.

Thanks.

I think both Obama and Clinton's supporters are equal ly wrong in the bashing of each team. It is not only Clinton's supporters...you may not care whether Clintons supporters end up not voting at all or switch over to McCain...but the sad truth is that Obama will not win without the full support of the DEMOCRATS as a WHOLE in the general elections. So when others are also going on and on about Clinton they should also watch their tongue and allow Clinton to leave graciously too...I have never seen the democrats so divided like this year and it is simply due to how the supporters of each team are going on about it. Some of you may not give a damn about how we the Clinton supporters may be feeling about this, but I bet you OBAMA does as it is DEFINATELY no longer about CLINTON but the DEMOCRATS being TOGETHER as that is what matters from now to November.enough said.

It was tooooooooo good to be true that Obama's campaign was going smoothly for some weeks without any issues, wahala, etc...
