I know it is a tough pill to swallow for most non Americans.

The fact we basically have been the big dog on the block for so long and all others were just our little subservient bitches.

^ True, but she was the premier First Lady that most everyone knew by name, I reckon.

"Eleanor shattered the ceremonial mold in which the role of the First Lady had traditionally been fashioned, and reshaped it around her own skills and her deep commitment to social reform. She gave a voice to people who did not have access to power. She was the first woman to speak in front of a national convention, to write a syndicated column, to earn money as a lecturer, to be a radio commentator and to hold regular press conferences." Etc.

I signed up to Obama's website and this is what I got in the mail today:

"Jettie,

As you've probably heard, there could be a wildcard in the race for the Democratic nomination.
We firmly believe that the candidate who has won the most pledged delegates -- the result of having more voters in more places supporting your campaign -- will be the Democratic nominee.
But to be safe, we are working to attract the support of "superdelegates" -- party officials and Democratic officeholders from across the country -- who also have a vote at the Democratic National Convention.
You may already know some superdelegates -- they include senators, governors, and even former presidents and vice presidents. But many others are ordinary people who hold positions in the state and local party operations.
These nearly 800 superdelegates will vote alongside the more than 3,000 pledged delegates who are chosen in the various state primaries and caucuses. The candidate that gets a majority of all delegates (superdelegates and pledged delegates combined) will be the Democratic nominee for president.
Right now, Barack is ahead in the contest for pledged delegates. We've won 23 contests out of the 35 that have been held so far -- including the last 8 in a row. And with our decisive victories in Virginia, Maryland, and Washington, DC on Tuesday, we now lead by more than 135 pledged delegates in the race for the Democratic nomination.
While we intend to continue winning states and expanding our lead among the pledged delegates, and believe that will likely ensure that Barack is the Democratic nominee, we're also doing the work of reaching out to superdelegates and making sure as many as possible support Barack Obama.
Here's where you can play a key role.
Our work so far has taught us one important lesson: that your personal story about why you support Barack Obama is often the most powerful persuasion tool for someone who's undecided. That's true whether that undecided voter is your neighbor or a superdelegate.
The story of where you're from, what brought you into the political process, the issues that matter to you, and why you became part of this movement has the potential to inspire someone who could cast a deciding vote in this contest.
Our staff will compile stories from supporters like you and make them a key part of the conversation with superdelegates as Barack asks for their support.
Share your story to help persuade superdelegates now:
http://my.barackobama.com/superdelegates
I've received a lot of email from folks asking how best to help with the superdelegate effort, and this is it.
Your note, combined with those of other Obama supporters, will tell the story of an extraordinary movement of ordinary people -- a story with a common thread of hope that becomes all the more powerful when it brings together the diverse backgrounds and experiences of our supporters.
Together we're building something historic, and your story can help make someone else a part of it.
I look forward to hearing from you.
Thank you,
David

Obama for America"

Guess I'm on the mailing list. Here's your chance, Obama supporters, to make a difference (or whatever that slogan is).

did you expect something different after giving your email address to a political campaign?

Jet Gorgon

^ Ornery as usual today I see, Ray. Did I tell you that hot pink becomes you?

^^ Ya, ChinT, Jackie sure had class, too.

BobbyTits

It is a fact that most folks like Little Cockload just can't stand the stature that America held for some many years.

keda

Just as well the world has a free and democratic superpower, warts and all, don't you think? Or should it be dismantled because it's less than perfect?

Milkman

There probably will always be a hegemon in a region or world. There has been mostly throughout history.

I'd take the US over the USSR, China, or other nations.

I don't know who said dismantled. I don't think dismantling is necessary nor realistic. But having the US stay out of other nations' internal affairs, or reducing its influence in internal affairs, would be a good step, IMO. Especially, after the creation of the PNAC.

I think it's simply not feasible for the dominant world power to stay on the sidelines in worldly matters, and in many respects through the aftermath of Vietnam the US withdrew and became rather isolationist, though some might say lethargic and uncaring...meanwhile, each time it did enter a fray, whether military or otherwise, the usual suspects would be up in arms over US meddling in matters that don't concern them.

Fair cop, like anyone else they have their vision of a perfect world and much of what happens around that world affects them at least indirectly, so it is not unusual for them to try and steer events and decisions toward their perception of the correct pigeon hole. Sometimes they're wrong and sometimes right, even though there appears to be a tantalising degree of self interest, but relative to its stature and influence not disproportionate to any other nation in dealing with any other.

Meanwhile, the interests of the other superpowers, China and Russia, extend to and are well suited by local, regional and overall instability and assisted or manipulated disruption, which makes the US role all the more important and often unappreciated, warts 'n all.

Boon Mee

Got that right brit.

Any y'all recall Millie Vanilli?

That's Obama all over again. He's simply lip-syncing the same old tired limousine liberal standards thru this campaign.

An empty suit...

Jet Gorgon

^ Please see my free press news post in the prez thread, Boonie.

Little Chuchok

Hmm stature....you mean pointing out that people like you have the stature of a small furry animal in most peoples eyes?.All I was doing was pointing out the blatantly obvious.The sad, sad thing about all your drivel,is that you actually believe it.Outstanding.

BobbyTits

Exactly like I said, you spent your whole life peeking over the fence and then running home fuming about your shortcomings.

I can't blame you.
