Still Don't Know Barack Obama?


 Senator Barack Obama 

Fox News correspondents stated that the American people still feel they don't know the Illinois Senator.

White House Advisor Karl Rove added, "Even if you never met him, you know this guy," Rove said. "He's the guy at the country club with the beautiful date, holding a martini and a cigarette that stands against the wall and makes snide comments about everyone who passes by."

Roves' (seen-r) statement doesn't convey that the American people don't know Barack Obama, it's insinuating that Obama is a hypocrite; in which this statement is discriminatory and judgmental in context. Karl Rove is trying to define Senator Obama for us, but we have brains and can figure it out. 

If you're interested in learning more about Barack Obama, his 2 best selling books are a great way: "Dreams From My Father", which goes in depth about his personal life and upbringing and "The Audacity Of Hope", which gives insight to his political life and is more tailored to his hopes and dreams for the American people. 

Fox News may want to use fear tactics to coax us away from Obama, but everything people describe him as is evident in just watching him; smart, composed, humble, down to earth and charming. But his opponents will always be dismissive of him -- for fear of loosing to the Democratic party. 

What about John McCain? Do we really know who he is?
