Many years ago, I said I could not believe that the people of Detroit would vote for "The Hip Hop Mayor".  During his inauguration I was driving down Moross when his motorcade passed by.  It literally had more police cars and motorcycles than when I saw President Reagan's motorcade in the 1980's.  Red lights were run, stop signs were blown and I thought to myself "Here we go, it starts with the little things and soon he will be embezzling millions".  Ok, so we don't have anything close to him embezzling millions but it's still bad.

At the last Democratic convention I heard Obama speak and didn't know who he was.  I thought to myself "What an AWESOME speaker"  After I did some research I was a little less impressed.  Most recently I was disappointed to find out that Obama was THE ONLY person on a stage to violate the U.S. Flag Code during the pledge of allegiance.  I know he was born in Hawaii, but he always talks about being raised by his grandparents and single mother.  I learned to place my hand over my heart at age 3.  Should this not be the habit for the future president of the United States.  I was previously undecided, between McCain and Obama.  Now I am leining toward McCain.

I am very prompt in removing my hat during the national anthem and placing my hand over my heart where it belongs.

Eliminating all other issues, how important do you think this issue is?
Do you feel the future president of the United States should ever be photographed or video taped in this way?  Am I wrong in thinking that this is inexcusable and disrespectfult to the people of this country, especially veterans?  Will this not just lead to another "Kwame" in office?  The similarities are too much. 
Kwame with 2 kids, Obama with 2 kids
Kwame with the earring he refuses to take out, Obama refusing to put his hand over his heart.
Obama removed the American flag from his jet, Kwame removed his American Flag lapel pin.
Obama said Kwame was doing an outstanding job just a few months ago, this is after the allegations of the party, the CARlita scandle, the wrongful termination suit and more.
Both Kwame and Obama were on the front cover of Trumpet magazine
Kwame's Mother, Carolyn Cheeks, did go to the DNC where Obama gave her a hug like they were family.
Obama announces his running mate by text message, Kwame is an expert at text messaging (See text message scandle for more info if you are unfamiliar).
I think I have to cross party lines!  What do you think? 

TOO MANY SIMILARITIES!
