Vice President Oprah? Obama Makes 10 Campaign ‘Promises’ on Letterman

Border

NEW YORK — Senator Barack Obama is making some campaign promises you can be pretty sure he won’t keep.

The Democratic presidential hopeful appeared on the “Late Show With David Letterman,” delivering a tongue-in-cheek list of his top 10 campaign promises, including a pledge to rename the tenth month of the year “Barack-tober.”

Also on the list is a vow to “appoint Mitt Romney secretary of lookin’ good” and another to “put Regis on the nickel.”

And the No. 1 campaign promise?

“Three words: Vice President Oprah.”

Obama is the latest in a string of candidates to be on the show. Earlier this week, rival John Edwards came on the show only to have his hair messed up by the host. Obama joked that Lettermen couldn’t repeat that prank, telling him: “you can’t muss my hair.”

I would move to Canada. I may anyway, Obama’s old lady is acting just like what she is. And God help the people if they elect this duo.

I reckon most of the republican candidates and all the democrats are pretty liberal. We had one conservative running, Fred thompson. He’s gone now because the american people wanted a flashy candidate. We better start looking at this from the point of view of one united nation. This bipartisanship is the best and worst form of politics in the world, unfortunately we look at who is the best leader for “our” party, not whos best for our people. take away the partys and suddenly next to mike huckaby clinton looks like a cheap joke, barely classy enough to be an impeached presidents scandilous ex-wife. obama is an allright guy but he believes in abortion,(cant vote for him) McCain is so freakin old that by his second term he will be ten years older than the average life span of a male in america.(dont we love dead presidents I think not) Romney consistenly and exponencialy looks more ignorant, not to mention he is constantly back peddaling to avoid being caught in a lie. oh yeah I saw my dad march with martin luther, a month later;oh well what I meant was he would have marched with him. STOP TALKING MITT, its the only way youll ever win you jacka#$! So like I said before, lets take the partisan out of politics, dont let a name fool you it is the views that matter. huckaby is a christian! This is a christian nation! We are forgetting that god is the most important thing in this race. God doesnt want people to kill babies by injecting acid into thier helpless litte brains. that elimenates the democrats, we need to fight to win in Iraq so that takes paul out. anyway, yall look at the important views and forget “which jokes who said” thats all spin to win you over make them look trustworthy and likable. I know you all are for the most part respectable inteligent people, lets act like it and make intelligent not partison decisions and vote for the only really legible candidate; Mike huckaby! and if you dont, please make your decision with the poor little unborn babies best intrest in mind! do whats best for our country and worst for the darn islamics and muslims. Yeah I mean all of them!
