My fellow Americans:

As your future President I want to thank my supporters, for your mindless support of me, despite my complete lack of any legislative achievement, my pastor's relations with Louis Farrakhan and Libyan dictator Moamar Quadafi, or my blatantly leftist voting record while I present myself as some sort of bi-partisan agent of change.

I also like how my supporters claim my youthful drug use and criminal behavior somehow qualifies me for the Presidency after 8 years of claiming Bush's youthful drinking disqualifies him. Your hypocrisy is a beacon of hope shining over a sea of political posing.

I would also like to thank the Kennedy's for coming out in support of me. There's a lot of glamour behind the Kennedy name, even though JFK started the Vietnam War, his brother Robert illegally wiretapped Martin Luther King, Jr. and Teddy killed a female employee with whom he was having an extra marital affair and who was pregnant with his child. And I'm not going anywhere near the cousins, both literally and figuratively.
And I'd like to thank Oprah Winfrey for her support. Her love of meaningless empty platitudes will be the force that propels me to the White House.

Americans should vote for me, not because of my lack of experience or achievement, but because I make people feel good. Voting for me causes some white folk to feel relieved of their imagined, racist guilt.
I say things that sound meaningful, but don't really mean anything because Americans are tired of things having meaning. If things have meaning, then that means you have to think about them.
Americans are tired of thinking. It's time to shut down the brain, and open up the heart. So when you go to vote in the primaries, remember don't think, just do. And do it for me.

Thank You.
Barack Hussein Obama, Jr.

So making up something to post is your idea of appropriate? Shit, I bet you didn't even make it up yourself, but quoted somebody else without credit. That's called plagiarism.

It's plagiarized, a simple search shows that.

OH....hell, I never claimed to have written that personally. It's a joke that's been all over the Internet you fools. When someone else posts a joke here in the "humor" section...is it incumbent upon them to say who originally wrote it? If so...then there are about four hundred OTHER "plagiarists" here too. You smarmy mokes! Barak Obama probably didn't even write it either...Sheesh! When you have to explain the joke it's no fun...LOL!

During the time Obama gave the speech above, McCain also gave a speech in Alabama. In typical McCain style, the two dozen people who showed up left feeling underwhelmed. Here is the speech in full:

Vote for me, I'm the white guy.

Thank you for your support,
John McCain

And since 98% of the Blacks in Alabama voted for Obama...he must have given a speech that simply said: "Vote for me...I'm the Black guy! Thank you for your support"
That's essentially what election comes down to anyway....Hillary today gave her support to Obama...but said she didn't win because she's a woman. I don't know why John Edwards didn't win.

I think part of Edwards problem genuinely came from him being the white guy.

Though he's kind of boring and he lost, and then ran with, a loser. Would have lost anyway, just not as badly.

Hillary gained and lost votes by being a woman, same for Obama. Hillary gained among women, Obama gained among blacks and educated whites. Hillary lost among men, Obama lost among poorer and less educated whites and hispanics.

I don't think McCain is harmed or helped much by being the white guy, though I'm sure his campaign will use it will he feigns protest.
