OCKG Talk  

Well today was the democratic caucus for the state of Nebraska. I attended the caucus for legislative district 10 at Laura Dodge Elementary School on 35th and Maplewood. I arrived at 9:18 am and there was already a long line of democrats ready to cast their vote for the democratic nominee for president. Both Clinton and Obama supporters were out in force.
There had to be at least 400 to 500 people from my district alone ready to evoke change for our country.

As everyone here in Omaha knows Barak Obama made a campaign  stop here on Thursday  February 7, 2008.  People I know that attended the rally  talked about the  large turn out and the  eloquence way Obama spoke to the masses. What I did not hear people saying is what  was his message!  Mr. Obama is a  main stream  politician with  main stream  ideas in my opinion. He wants to bring the troops home from Iraq on a time table, he wants to lower the cost for health care by cutting deals with the pharaceutial, insurance and health care companies.  Mmmmm?  He wants to take away the tax credits/cuts for U.S. companies that send jobs off shore and he believes the borders should be open to decent working class people from Mexico who enter the country legally and they should have all the benefits of a U.S. citizen. Not bad but this is not addressing the issues that really plague our country. Issues, like military spending out of control and domestic spending in dire need of funding in education, health care, tax cuts for working class people and the working poor, ending the unjust war in Iraq and transition our military to peace keepers abroad and protectors at home. Media law reform, voting machines (computers) ban, ending the lobbyist's system in D.C., campaign reform, taking citizenship away from corporations  especially the  right to donate to political campaigns, legally making corporations an entity not a person and holding the broad of corporations personal responsible for the actions of the corporations (oil spill clean up, pollution, bad medicine, job elimination),  Cleaning up the health care system in American alone is a monumental task and it starts with getting major corporations to stop trying to get every one on some type of medication but get everyone to understand nutrition and the proper way to eat for health.

In my opinion Mr. Obama is good choice when you look for the lesser of two evils. But I am starting to notice one ex congresswoman Cynthia McKinney. Ms. Mckinney is not main stream, has served in the congress for six years and has taken a stand against the status quo. She has called out the president on the war in Iraq and the war on terror. She has questioned what happen on 9/11. She has taken on voter fraud in Florida 2000 and Georgia 2002/2006, with an eye on Ohio 2004 and she help the King family get the murder of Dr. King reopened in state court. I have listened to her speech concerning her presidential run for the Green party and she is saying some things I do not hear from the main stream candidates. Please go to her web site and check out her speeches. I will include a couple of links with this posting.

But first the monsters behind the candidates. Please check this list before making your decision for Obama!!!!!

Also note that the nuclear power industry is a major campaign contributor for Barak Obama. Did you notice that the people behind Hiliary are from the same camp as the people behind Obama!!!! and it is not because they are all democrats it is because the same power brokers behind Hiliary are behind Obama!!! Please do some internet reseach on Hiliary Clinton's ties to the Chicago Cattle exchange investment miracle (she invested $1,000.00 and made $100,000.00 in less than a year. Finanical analysis states the chances of this happening legally are 250 million to one).  Keep in mind here what state Obama is from!
