if i used the higher # or the average it would show EVEN LESS BIG DONORS.

uhh.. which was one of my points, earlier... clearly you didn't care to actually read my post...

i was trying to at least keep it fair by using the lowest # in the brackets... not to mention these brackets dont include contriburtuins of less then $200. i guess kabong wanted to kee those out of the equation, i wonder why? :rolleyes:

I really don't understand what point you're trying to make...

thanks for proving my point good friend

what the fuck are you talking about? how in the world did I prove your point? your statistics were off. there are RULES in statistics. you don't "make it even" by how you choose to do it... :rolleyes:

and believe me, with this shit your are spouting it is pretty obvious who is better at math, and it isnt you

lol, ok, if that's what helps you sleep at night.

i really have no idea why i even bother. Nader supporters are some of the most arrogant, naive, and simplistic political supporters i have ever seen. it really is amazing... OMG Obama raises money!!!!! OMG he is evil!!!! OMG employee's at American companies donate money to him!!!! OMG he is evil!!!!hahahahahahahaha :rolleyes:

cool.

So what makes a candidate realistic?



I only say what I say when people keep saying how Obama is so great but never say why OR when people overlook things that have mattered to them in the past on this very board in order to offer unwaivering support for Obama on issues like the war, patriot act, fisa, blackwater etc...

So it appears it's not about the issues but rather popularity. And then we wonder why we get such shitty leaders? The only ones people will consider are the ones the corporations provide for you.

I always think that Obama's campaign is the perfect example of the ends justifying the means - no matter what he does, it's just a case of something he has to do to get elected, or to keep other politicians onside. Even if it means signing away citizen's rights.

EDIT: Just thought I'd include this quote from Frankie Boyle, off Mock The Week: "Obama doesn't just appeal to black voters, who think he's gonna make some grand change to society... he also appeals to American white voters. Who think he's Tiger Woods."

Yeah, only a racist would vote for a person based on their skin color.

calling me a racist....honestly? has your arguement really digressed to this. Wow...

you now think i base my votes on skin color. i just think it would be pretty cool for someone to make it in this country that was not a rich old white man. I respect Obama...i think he is smart and would make a good leader. If that is the wrong reason to vote for someone...then i am wrong...but i will sleep at night, and will have voted for a person i was happy voting for.

you can support whoever you want. just please keep the negative threads to exactly 50/50, cause my point was that, if you are making threads bashing Obama all the time....you are essentially campaigning for McCain...cause this is a two person race whether you want to admit it or not. i appreciate your ideals...they are noble...but those were my points...
(and i dont dislike Nader...i just dont think he is a factor in this election...and i feel pretty confident in my assessment of that)
