&lt;p&gt;In these instances what do you do? You or the American people ought to stand united and nominate a candidate who can withstand these types of barrage of negetive Ads rather than Hillary Clinton. She can counter the Republicans tricks by showing that she is not only strong in fighting crime and also a uniter at the end of the day. Again, let the people decide about who is more electable in the general election against the Rebulican and John McCain? I will let the people and the super delegate to dwell on that and decide. I have every reason to believe that Hillary Clinton will be the best choice for the general election defeating John McCain. &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;For those who think (like Dartay) that Obama will hinder the Democratic party if he is the nominee because of these types of ads, I wonder what you think the Republicans will try wih HClinton. &amp;nbsp;They've been waiting on her...&lt;/p&gt;

Bush was elected and took us into a false and preemptive war. &amp;nbsp;Why would anyone believe the media is doing their job?&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;If anything disqualifies Obama from being president is the overwhelming, naivity demonstrated by his choices of people to run his campain.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;People who think the Democratic party values define the nation, when in truth the Democratic party values are considered liberal/extreme by all but Democrats.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Race may not be an issue in the Democratic party, but in the GENERAL ELECTION it WILL BE ALL THE REASON you need to explain why Obama WILL LOSE the General election.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The understanding of the ads is also somewhat lacking. This is a tried and true tactic throughout the South and Texas and all Republican strongholds.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;They are NOT targeting Obama, they are targeting his SUPPORTERS/ENDORSERS. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Demands to NOT run the ad will be seen as heavy-handed, improper attempts to force local, independent political parties from defending themselves. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;All's fair in love and war, and in the South, politics as well. &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;It is up to us, the citizens of this great nation, to stand up with Obama and let the world know &amp;quot; Not this time&amp;quot;!!!This time we WOULDN'T allow anyone from any party (Democratic or Republican or whatever) to convince us that a well qualified presidential candidate CAN'T win an election in the United States of American because of his race. This time WE will challenge the dispicable and divisive politics of fear and hate; this time WE will not be convinced by political pundits &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;(Scarbourough,Buchanan, Matthews or whomever) from any media organization (FOX, CNN, MSNBC or whatever) that because we are members of the white working class we or because we are Hispanic or because we are FEMALE we HAVE to cast our vote for/against a candidate just because he/she is black/white/male/female; this time WE will choose to look beyond the beyond the &amp;nbsp;color of one's skin and beyond one's gender, and we will we &amp;nbsp;choose a leader of this nation who has the integrity, honesty and decency to lead us in a direction of unity, peace and prosperity. A leader who dares us not only to hope for a unified, secure, and properous America, but who also dares us to strive to realize that hope for our own sake, the sake of our children, the sake of our nation. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;We are Americans, and I KNOW WE CAN!!!! &lt;/p&gt;
