I don't understand. I thought Hillary Clinton was the NWO's planned leader? With John Edward's endorsement, does this mean they switched their decision mid-stream, this was their plan all along, or Hillary will still somehow win and it will be call a miracle? I honestly don't know who's going to win on the Democratic side anymore. It just feels like something fishy is happening, but that feeling could be a false alarm.

FINALLY!

NOW what do we need to do to get rid of Hillary?

At least this will help a little bit.

I'm not sure, it all depends on how what John Edwards says in his speech. Will this finally convince Hillary to drop out? I seriously doubt it.

I'll try to keep the news articles updated (as long as the edit button doesn't disappear; it seems to do that after a certain amount of time).

No actually the Rockefellers support Obama...if you want to know who pulls strings look no further there...they are part owner of the FED and still have large stakes in Exxon Mobil

Im voting RP myself but anyone but John McCain would be a sigh of relief.

It's simple. He got promised something. A cabinet position. The VP slot.
That's how it works with these politicians.

I thought Rockefeller was also a part of Bilderberg? But doesn't Bilderberg support Hillary?

And just for the record, I'm also voting for Ron Paul.

That is actually incorrect. John Edwards has stated multiple times on the news networks that even if he was offered a VP position, he would not take it.

Okay everybody, it's started. According to the news, Obama will give a small speech first, then bring out Edwards. I hope that somebody is recording this for those who miss it.

I'm not surprised. It's all politics and right now the democrats are trying to show how they are all united.......but it only proves they were waiting for whom the front-runner at the time would be.

Guess democrats haven't been reading about Senator Obama's "Global Poverty Tax" (S.2433). How many constituents would continue to vote for Senator Obama if they knew how much Mr. Obama wants them to pay out in taxes to support other countries then their own, when we already have a national debt in the trillions!!!

Plus, homelessness, poverty, no jobs and insecure jobs, payiing for most of your medcal insurance, etc., etc., etc. Yep, I'm jumping for joy.

Heres my take on this:

1. Edwards is a known attendee of the Bilderberg meetings (I think 2004 and 2007, but Im not sure of the dates).

2. Edwards will most probably secure the VP spot.

3. America is likely to elect a Democrat, which will be Obama.

4. Obama may be assassinated.

5. Edwards, a known Bilderberger, assumes presidency.

Realistic, n'est ce pas?

Never has such a big deal been made out of an ambulance chaser's opinion than right now. Enjoy your fleeting moment in the sun, John Edwards.

Oh, and for the record, I'm voting John McCain. I'd prefer to be casting a vote for someone who's actually a conservative, but since I have no desire to see the Dems back in the White House and McCain is almost certainly going to be a one term president, I'm voting for the lesser of evils.

According to Wikipedia, John Edwards attended in 2004 but not in 2007. If you have a source that says otherwise, I'd be willing to see it.

He has stated before that he's not taking a VP spot.

Most definitely.

That is possible.

Not if Hillary has anything to say about that.

I'd rather not vote than vote for the lesser of two evils, but luckily there's the option of a mail-in for Ron Paul, so that's what I'm choosing.

All I can say is:


Woohoo! Bout damn time Edwards!

For the ones voting for Ron Paul...

Under what party is he running? I know that he was trying for the Repub nomination but that is going to McCain. How will you vote for him if his name is not on the ballot?

reply to post by stellawayten


Ron Paul will steal mostly democrat votes helping McCain to victory.

aka 4 more years of the Bush administration.

reply to post by Sublime620


That doesn't answer my question. How are people going to vote on Ron Paul if his name isn't on the ballot?

reply to post by stellawayten


You can always write it in. Plus, he could run as an independent.

reply to post by Sublime620



so basically people are saying that they are going to vote for someone that isn't officially running? At least not yet.
