US Election Coverage 2008

[Capitol Hill]

I doubt Obantu will win Michigan. Michigan residents get enough dosage of Bantu politicians when they look at the shenanigans of Detroit politicians. I predict they will remember Detroit politicians when they go into the voting booth and cast their ballots for McCain-Palin. That's just my gut feeling.

What bubble are you living in? And/ Or if I am not mistaken you must have been drinking Kool-Aide from Ann Coulter and Rush Limbaugh Bottlers.

So-- you still think McCain will win ahh?

Yes! Obantu will struggle with White voters. His only chance will be in massive Black voter turnout across America. I doubt he will get a large Hispanic support as many Latinos are antagonistic towards Bantus. In major American urban areas racial hatred between Blacks and Latinos is very high. So Obantu will be in a real pickle come November.

 

[The Truth]

The myth about Obantu's purpoted high intelligence questioned. See below

Barack Obama's IQ is ~116
An IQ guy attempts to work it out:

[T]hese are the facts concerning Obama's LSAT score while attending Law School at Harvard University. We do not know his actual LSAT score; however, after much research, we found that the average LSAT score for all Harvard students is 171. The percentile rank for an LSAT score of 171 at Harvard is 98.8 %.

MENSA will accept LSAT scores as a means of qualifying for MENSA membership. (MENSA also accepts up to 200 various IQ tests and other tests of cognitive function as well.) The LSAT score required for MENSA membership is equal to a percentile of 95% or higher. Thus, basing Obama's estimated LSAT score of 171 ranks him in the top 98.8% (percent/percentile) range which is clearly above the lowest acceptable LSAT percentage rank of 95%, which clearly affirms that Obama has a qualifying intelligence quotient that would allow him acceptance into MENSA.

Since MENSA accepts various IQ Tests as well as other cognitive tests to qualify for MENSA membership it is safe to estimate that Obama's IQ Score could range anywhere from a low IQ score of 130 based on the Stanford Binet IQ Test, Revision 5, to a high IQ score of 148 based on the Cattell IQ Test.

What the IQ guy failed to account for is the fact that Harvard University practices affirmative action. PBS Frontline reports: "The gap in SAT scores persists even at the highest levels of achievement. A study of the 1989 applicants to five highly-selective universities found that white candidates' average combined SAT score was 186 points higher than the corresponding SAT average for African American applicants."

Furthermore, the New York Times reports that "At the best schools, by contrast, efforts to diversify the student body translate into a 400-point bonus for minority students on the SAT tests."

That 98.8 ranking based on the average Harvard LSAT translates to about a 135 IQ and a combined SAT score of 1290. That's pretty good, if not spectacular. However, due to affirmative action, one must reduce that score by at least 186 points. (Also, I suspect the NYT article is talking about the new SAT, which isn't valid for the purposes of this comparison.) Thus, giving Obama the benefit of the doubt drops his score to 1104, which is approximately equivalent to an IQ of 116. That's not bad, but it is significantly less intelligent than Hillary's 140 IQ, as well as being lower than George W. Bush's 125 IQ (1206 SAT).

Before one points to the fact that Obama ranked highly in his class, it's important to keep in mind that Bill Bradley was a Princeton Rhodes Scholar despite his 485 Verbal SAT and mediocre 103 IQ. Academic success, like every other kind of success, is just as much about hard work and determination as it is about intellectual firepower, but Barack Obama's supporters obviously shouldn't be attempting to make their case for him on the basis of what is, based on the available information, probably an IQ of 116, only one standard deviation above the norm. Of course, this estimate is based on averages which don't necessarily apply to a single individual; Obama could lay the matter to rest by simply permitting his scores to be released to the public.

If his intelligence is so incredibly important, as some of his more visibly insane supporters insist, then surely the senator should inform us precisely how intelligent he is. Because he demonstrates his ignorance and a less-than-impressive intelligence nearly every time he opens his mouth despite his handlers attempts to retroactively fix his statements: "The fact that we have reached a point where the Federal Reserve felt it had to take this unprecedented step with the American Insurance Group is the final verdict on the failed economic philosophy of the last eight years."

First, AIG didn't fail because of the economic philosophy of the last eight years. The Fed began goosing the markets under Clinton. Second, that "unprecedented step" was taken with the American International Group.

Vox Popoli: Barack Obama's IQ is ~116

 

[Capitol Hill]

Ukweli--
I hope you don't run away after Nov 4th. You guys can throw all the theories out there -- the bottom line is -- Obama is gonna take it, unless something major happens to him between now and the election such as a sex scandal -- which I think is very unlikely to happen kutokana na jinsi Sen. Obama alivyo disciplined na grounded.
You guys discredited Obama during the Primaries -- thank God he proved you wrong -- I recall all those Nay Sayers kwenye hii blog na kwenye ile ya Michuzi mwanzoni kabisa wakijidai and I repeat it WAKIJIDAI experts wa siasa za Marekani kwamba there is no way Wamarekani watamchagua Black candidate. Ooooopppssss! Mkapigwa bao.
To make this story more appealing, Sen. Obama hakutegemea the so called NAACP and its "lousy" leaders.. you know them, He didn't even bow to influential black men like that Johnson guy owner of the Bobcats, Andrew Young, to name a few. Why do I refer NAACP in past tense..kwa sababu it was there strategically as a status quo machine for the few black leaders (Sharpton, Jackson, et al) who instead of igniting hope, and setting high standards for many young black people. Were there to exploit situations..and use race and other vindications as reasons why black men/women can not advance in this country. WRONG!

Hivi ngoja nikuulize swali. If Obama could beat the Clinton machine...in strategy and in raising $$$ what makes you think that John McCain stands a chance????
Halafu..hivi unajua Obama ana ground crew kubwa kiasi gani? Obama Campaign outspends GOP na McCain Campaign in funds..and who's working for Obama? Its the white people...akina McCaskill, Klobuchar, Warren Buffet, Bloomberg, GE Corporation and its affiliations NBC, MSNBC, Newsweek, to name a few?
Have you been to those Obama rallies? watu wanasubiri toka asubuhi when the gates are open and who are majority in those events? WHITES not BLACKS. I was at Portland siku Obama had the largest turnout, ilikuwa mwezi May...70,000 plus people. Kama unajua Geography utajua ni demography ya aina gani iko kwenye state ya Oregon. Needless to say kwamba hiyo haikuwa event ya kwanza kwa Obama kuwa na massive crowd. Kila anapokwenda the stadiums, arenas, are packed.
What you are also forgetting ni kwamba the same white ppl are fed up with Chenney and Bush administration-- and with the way things are going here at home with Uchumi na abroad with wrong wars (War in iraq) its wazi kuwa some abusive of executive power has been done, the lies has been told, and Bush administration has tried to place itself above the law and do things its way in most secretive format.
I think and I hope when the American people go to the voting booth, hawatakumbuka rangi ya mgombea, bali watakumbuka Katrina Response -- and "Brownie you are doing a heck of a job", Scoter Libby Justice, WMD na all the force inteligence that got the U.S. where it is., Economy at home, high energy costs, job loss, Mistreatment of Iraq war veterans, na pia fundamentals za economy are strong according to Sen. McCain.

Capitol hill, mkuu, hivi bado unam-engage huyu Ukweli? Kwanza unamchanganya kwa kuandika kiswahili maana haelewi alafu anakuja na propaganda zae si kwamba anatafuta information au debating kama mwenzake Nyani, ye anabandika tu utmbo.
Lakini back to kitchensink strategy ya McNgabu, uzuri ni kwamba Hillary already tried it and it didn't work, pia Obama kesho anarelease ads anapozungumzia hii ishu akisema Babu kaishiwa hoja analeta vioja. kwa hiyo before things can take off, tayari wameshakuwa caught with their pants down. When everybody knows that you are trying to divert attention from the real issues and you are ATTACKING your opponent ujue you are definitely not going to sway the undecided voters or maybe you will convince them to run away from your ticket as fast as they can.

 

[Nyani Ngabu]

McCain will shock the world....no one thought the NY Giants would beat the NE Patriots.....No one thought Buster Douglas would beat Mike Tyson....I'm telling you people....McCain will shock the world and you will all end up blaming racsm.

If you believe Americans will punish McCain and Palin for Bush and Cheney's mistakes then I don't think it is far fetched to believe that Americans will punish Obantu for other Bantus' problems. If Americans can associate McCain with Bush, I don't see why they can't associate Obantu with Kwame Kilpatrick or Robert Mugabe or Al Sharpton.

I also don't agree that Obantu defeated Clinton decisively in the primaries. The super delegates decided his nomination not the voters. The super delegates could have easily nominated Clinton and there was a strong case to be made for that decision. White voters rejected Obantu in the primaries and so did the latino voters. Race will be a big factors when those White and Latino voters enter the voting booth.

It won't be a shock to me when McCain wins. I agree with you though, the world in general will be shocked but largely because they misunderstand Americans. Once you understand Americans then it won't be such a shock at all.

You have mentioned one good point about the Primaries. Who are those delegates who decided to chose Obama instead of Clinton? Nauliza hivi kwa sababu ya premise ya argument yako kuwa Obama hatashinda kwa sababu ni mweusi. Majority ya delegates na super delegates ni white people kwenye vyama vyote vikubwa viliwi (DNC na GOP)..Sasa tujiulize. Kama super delegates hawa wana vote kwa race moja tu over the other...na kama wali kimbilia on the side of Obama...kwa nini Al Sharpton hakufika popote in 2004 na how about another brother.... Jesse Jackson?
Ndio maana kwenye mtundiko wangu nimesema Americans hawataona rangi..although kuna ambao bado skin color ni barrier kwao..and these are those Lady derothschild called them "Rednecks", na these are the people Rush Limbaugh and Sean Hannity talk to every weekday. These are the folks that haven't even been outside their "small communities", these are those folks Sarah Palin was referring to as " Joe Six pack", and they still believe that Iraq invaded the U.S. on 9/11.
Now the majority of Americans are not this way. And that majority is fed up with the GOP.

Yes, but the electoral college is laid out in the Joe Six Pack's favor i.e. the red states. Now also the Latinos are making a difference in the electoral map especially in the southwestern United States. Obantu isn't going to advance with these groups and hence his failure. Latinos hatred for Bantus may give McCain a win even in California. Obantu may have huge support in metropolitan areas but that is as far as it goes.

Your babu is already shocking the world ALRIGHT!! Kwikwikwiiii! how stupid can he get by selecting Palin as his running mate. Unajua kwa nini babu yako anazidi kuanguka katika battle states? not the economy, it's PALIN! Naomba nikuwekee hapa another very 'intelligent' thing that she recently said:

As we send our young men and women overseas in a war zone to fight for democracy and freedoms, including freedom of the press, we've really got to have a mutually beneficial relationship here with those fighting the freedom of the press, and then the press, though not taking advantage and exploiting a situation, perhaps they would want to capture and abuse the privilege. We just want truth, we want fairness, we want balance.

WTF????? Hivi hajui consitution provides for freedom of the press and the US army does not get freedom of the press for the USA? What has US press freedom have to do with Iraq??? Huyu mama ni zuzuzu!!! Zero! Lakini naomba mmwendelee kumpa nafasi nyingi za kuzungumza tu ili azidi kudhihirisha ujinga wake!@$%&^& Thanks McCain for the gift that keep givin', ya betcha, folks!

Ask him because he knows when it's over even though they put on a brave face, na kumbukeni Wolfson alikuwa part of Hillary team iliyotumia kitchensink strategy lakini anakiri safari hii kuleta Ayers na Rev Wright ni kazi bure kwa McCain, it's over!

Duh! Nyani sikujua kuwa Babu yako alisha-crash mara 3 ndege before Nam!!! mi nilijua alicrash once before than again in Nam, kumbe alikuwa na ka-talent ka ku-crash! Boy o boy! Naona the gloves are off, na sasa wameanza kuchimbua story ya American Hero na kukuta alikuwa confused for quite some time (si utu uzima kama tunavyodhani au PTSD)
Mishaps mark John McCain's record as naval aviator
DUh! Hii story ni tamu sana, ukisoma jinsi walivyoficha rekodi yake yenye ukurasa mia 6 na kitu wame -release 19 tu!! no wonder ukizingatia alikuwa mahiri kwa accidents before Vietnam, kwikwikwi! Kweli alikuwa specialist!

You are right Susu...Nasikiliza talk radio shows za right wing....wote wanaonekana ku concede...Topics za leo ni "Is this kitchen sink or Neuclear" a smart move on Camp McCain? Halafu wengine wameanza ku blame McCain strategy ya ku cancel campaign na kwenda Capitol Hill for Photo op. Hiyo strategy failed. Kingine wanachomlaumu Bob Mac...vote yake ya bailout, na mwisho wanamlaumu kwa ku pull Michigan na ku announce. Wanasema ingekuwa wise a pull kimya kimya.
They are also start talking about Sarah Palin as a formidable candidate in 2012..their argument...she will be "seasoned" by then. WHAT A 720 SPIN??

You guys should be careful...JF itaanza kuwa criticized kwa kuwa in the tank for Obama.
