Obama.com More Than Doubles in Four Trading Days
Checking up at Tradesports on the Barack Obama as Democratic Presidential Nominee contract, I was surprised to see that he’s trading over 60. It’s kind of a reverse of the old Howard Dean contract chart I posted back in January 2004 after the Iowa caucus.
(You’ll be amused to note that I was looking for Crude to move all the way up to $38.50 back then.)

And yet he still has no chance of winning, lol. Bizarre.

No chance of winning? You must be from the South.

contracan: My wife also believes that Boobus Americanus isn’t ready for Obama, but that hasn’t stopped me and some other guys, like Paul Tudor Jones, from putting some money behind him.

>>Boobus Americanus - I’d take 100 Boobus Americanus’s over 1 Imperial Fabian from London or a flaky EU socialist. Oddly enough, in my travels, the Ruski’s have the best sense about things, possibly because they were subjected to propaganda for so long that now they can see right through it.
I’m leary that some scrawny negro has come up with a plan to undo 100 years of political manipulation by the banking cartel. Being a member of the CFR one can be certain his administration would be stacked with the very people causing the problems. Just like the administration we have now and the one before that, and the one before that….
THE ONLY thing that will bring change is to cut off the tail that’s wagging the dog.

Does your wife believe that us Boobinskis won’t vote for Obama because he’s half black, or because he’s a socialist?
If its race - exactly how many non-Chinese faces did we see snoozing at the last National Congress meeting in xenophobic China? Nice for a comment like that to come out of such a racially pure nirvana where non-Chinese have never been fully welcomed into the society.
If its for that smiling socialism - when too many Boobinskis will vote for a socialist for president, America will be in serious jeopardy of losing its heritage as a people who fought and died for liberty.

James: He’s too educated, too articulate, and way too black for the Boobs. Meanwhile young, smart, race-blind, connected rich people (us!) are rooting for him.

Somehow I can’t to get excited about the EUro.

Seems the EUropeans are more worried about “Boobus Americanus” than they are about the seething threat living within their borders that they’ve imported from the ME to bolster their socialist pyramid schemes.
All I see in the next 20 years is nationalism, war and continued clashing of civilizations. 100 years later, we’re right back where we started in EUrope. All the Orwellian brain washing in the world can’t overcome human nature. So, another “war to end all wars” may be in the offing to quell the desire for that pesky “nationalism” (the desire of a group of people to determine their own destiny). I’m pretty sure that’s a goal of some organization or another.
We’re gonna need true leadership. I just don’t see it in Obama nor anyone else that’s running. Nothing but pandering to connected rich people - telling them what they want to hear.
Thank God for Ron Paul. He’s right where he needs to be…in congress. We need 400 more congressmen just like him. That would go a long way toward leveling the playing field in favor of actual freedom.
