How did Obama become this famous?

Question

He has done nothing for Our country. He has no expierence with the military. Hes been in the house...big deal...He just came out of the wood work and everyone bows down to him like Jesus. This is scary that ameicans are this persuaded by ONE man. And I know what your thinking....REPUBLICAN...but NO i am acutally Independent.

Answer 1

Obama got were he is today the old fashion way: he earned it, but unlike most everyone of his career moves proved perfect, and he has huge amount of courage and drive. Plus his timing could not have been better.

Answer 2

The U.S. Green Party never receives media attention is why.

Strange as the agenda of it is clear and it will do something and people know what it is about. From all the notice people take it might as well be from outer space more alien than bug eyed monsters from Betelgeuse system

Answer 3

I think those that have a mind like yours  has their head on strait! :-)

Good grief I have been asking the same question...  He is portraying himself like a good guy and  people are falling for it. No, there are 3 Ideals I look for in a President and choose a candidate accordingly.

1) He will Defend and Protect the Borders of the USA

2) Uphold the Constitution  of the USA, Honor and sustain  the laws

3) Honor and love the USA in all his actions

I will choose the one who more like these.

Answer 4

Because the media basically runs the country. The media is mostly left and the left supports the democratic party. Do the math. The democrats don't know the issues, they are just supporting an ideal. An ideal that is going to tax and ruin what is left of our nation. Mcain is white, he has no chance. Sad.

Answer 5

Barack Obama won the nomination for Democratic presidential election. So, basically, Hilary Clinton is not in the Race for President, and who likes McCain anyways?!

I am 95% Sure Obama will win the Election. Everyone knows it. And he would be the first African-American Man President. And yes, he is young, and has no experience with the Military, but I feel he has everything worked out for our country, and I really admire him, and I also feel that another Race should have a chance at Presidency.

I am offended by your opinion about him though. I think he has a great shot, and I'm sure he won't let our country down. Well... At least ME down. I'm hoping he'll stop the war, because everyone knows it's not winnable, especially after 4 Years of War, and no one has even came CLOSE! Send our troops home, Obama! PLEASE!

Answer 6

How do you think?

Answer 7

When running to become the leader for the world's superpower, which has a population of 300 million people, it's hard to stay under the radar.

Answer 8

The color of his skin.

Answer 9

You should look at how much campaign funds he has.

Answer 10

1. A good PR team.

2. Running wnen there is a competent but relatively unexciting current president and vice-president team.

3. The race issue.

4. Democrats generally "ignore the steak and sell the sizzle."

5. He is from Illinois (now); after NY, LA, and DC, Chicago might be the most important city in U.S. politics/government/economics.

6. There are many (although probably not the majority) loud Americans who do not understand that a strong U.S. military is a stabilizing factor in the world.

Answer 11

if he makes it I hope he takes a good vice with him because I am not sure he will live through it.

Answer 12

Why does ANYONE become "Famous" ? Because aLOT of People LIKE them... & just because You or I DON'T, doesn't mean they can't be Great... I mean there were people who thought George Washington was a Traitor; and that Abe Lincoln was a Fool, and that Michael Phelps is a Fraud... -But it doesn't MEAN that THEY were "right" & we are "wrong"... -It JUST means we're on the WRONG side of History- that's all...  ... :0
