Obama
WILL NOT become the next US president even if he wins the democratic party
nomination. He is getting a boost from the Hillary Clinton dislikability
factor. In other words he is getting negative votes to Hillary Clinton not
positive votes for himself. He is obviously an inexperienced candidate
and doesn’t seem to understand the fundamental factors driving the US
domestic and foreign policies. The other important point to consider is that
America is far from a color blind society –racism and tribalism not being
unique to America—and there will be some time before a non-white male can
become US president, and especially an African-American whose grandmother is
still living in a village in Kenya. I would say that, save for this
constitutional prohibition for not being born in the US, Arnold would have a much
better chance than Obama at US presidency only if he could by some miracle
speak with and American (or New Englander) accent.
For
better or worse, unless he is incapacitated due to some old-age illness, I
already see John McCain in the White House, and I don’t think one needs a
crystal ball to see that.

SHOCK--OBAMA WILL BE ASSASSINATED IF HE WINS: Nobel winner Lessing: If Barack Obama becomes the next US president he will surely be assassinated, British Nobel literature laureate Doris Lessing predicted in a newspaper interview published here Saturday. Obama, who is vying to become the first black president in US history, "would certainly not last long, a black man in the position of president. They would murder him," Lessing, 88, told the Dagens Nyheter daily. Lessing, who won the 2007 Nobel Literature Prize, said it might be better if Obama's Democratic rival Hillary Clinton were to succeed in her bid to become the first woman president of the United States.
