Next time that people consider voting for Obama I hope they will think of these qualities and or facts:.

Vote for a real American citizen. He has never been forthcoming as to all his b.s..
Being a community organizer does not qualify one for being President.
A Harvard Education does not always correllate with wisdom or common sense.
Just because Oprah, Whoopie, or Joy Behar worship you does not mean you're wonderful.
Just because your wife has firm arms is not a qualification--Stupid.
The First Dog is just a dog. Not to be personafied as the world's greatest animal.
Extravagant vacations don't impress when a lot of us can't pay the electric bill, DUH!
Reagan was the Great Communicator. Obama can't say more than three words without adding a period.
That your grandmother was a typical white woman will not endear your no-good ass to me.
