I am amazed at how this country can elect a man who has documented ties to domestic terrorists, radical spiritual leaders who preached hate of any other race except that of African-Americans, corrupt real estate developers, the support of Hamas, and one who has also guaranteed to take your earnings and give them to someone too lazy to work.

Typically, when a government is taken over by Marxism, Socialism or Communism, they do so by military coup or by civil war; however, we voted it in.

We can use Cuba as an example of this. Castro promised "change" and then was elected as a result of his promise; now toilet paper is a commodity in that country.

It is sad we live in a country where the media can determine the winner of an election as a result of their biased coverage. We have heard virtually nothing about Obama's questionable "friends" but yet we know more about Sarah Palin's daughter and her daughter's boyfriend.

Joe Biden will be correct when he predicted an international incident within the first six months of Obama's presidency.

The world realizes Obama will cut defense spending and will weaken America's presence in the world; all of this because we elected a president with radical affiliations and no platform.

Obama has only slightly more experience than you or I at being president. The spiritual leader, mentor and best friend of Barack Obama may be right when he said our chickens have come home to roost. I think that was said in the same sermon as the U.S. of the KKK of A! And who can forget God D*** America! God D*** America! God D*** America!

I am very thankful this long and painful election process is over. Let us also be thankful for the tremendous strides we've made in this country in the 40 years since the great Dr. King spoke of his dream.

This monumental occasion hopefully proves racism toward people of color is over. I hope now the Rev. Jesse Jackson and Rev. Al Sharpton can now focus on other issues.
