 I SUPPORT him, but I'm realistic. I know that there is a HUGE possibility that Obama will either lose OR if he does win, he will get assassinated.

Yeah, during the week of the Democratic convention, there were many asassination threats. During one speech at FSU a month and a half ago, some college demonstrators whom were racist screamed racial slurs. During the speech he stopped for about a mnute, looked around then addressed his audience. He came back to the podium and responded : "Although I respect your first ammendment right of Freedom of Speech, I would appreciate it if you would let me continue on with what I had to say." Then he kept going, so even if an asassination were to happen, he's not afraid of it. But I do believe his family as well as supporters are deeply concerned by it. |
