Donald Trump for President. - 3 views

  •  
    Barak Obama apparently doesn't have a birth certificate according to Donald Trump. It is supposed to be in a vault in Hawaii where Barak was supposed to be born but now we really are not sure. At first i was thinking this is just probably because of the fact that he is going to be running against Obama in the next election but now i'm not so sure. There is a good possibility that he is actually not a member of the United States. Let alone not even legally. If Barak has any sort of birth certificate it shouldn't be that hard to find it considering he is the president of the United States. For some reason they have yet to find it. Either it was never created or somebody along the years had lost it.

    Well then I will make sure to not vote for Obama next election.
  •  
    Before he was eligible to become president, things like this should of been figured out.
  •  
    Vote for Donald Trump.................
  •  
    Donald Trump just needs something to try and get voters on his side since he has never done anything political before. It would be terrible if he became president of our country in the next election.
  •  
    I think that Barak was probably born in the United States and his birth certificate is just MIA as of right now, even thought a birth certificate should not be hard to find. Considering you need it for many things, he should have it in his possession. Donald Trump should be president.
  •  
    If the man had a Birth certificate they would have found it by now he is the president of the united states i believe trump is telling the truth and someone should've looked into this better when obama was running for president.
  •  
    If Donald Trump was president i'm sure it couldn't get any worse then what Barak is doing now:)
  •  
    I believe that Obama was born in the US. If he wasn't then i doubt that he would of became president in the first place because someone would have asked for proof of where he was born.
  •  
    How could you run for president without proof of being born here? Come on, what is the U.S comming to?
  •  
    Get him Trump!
  •  
    I would vote for trump. Cause Obama is changing our live for ever we need some one else in office.
  •  
    I personally think Donald Trump will actually help us out.

American detained in North Korea - 0 views

  •  
    The United States, with help from Sweden, is trying to get North Korea to release the man on humanitarian grounds. Sweden is representing the US because of the poor diplomatic relations with North Korea. The Swedes visited the man and are asking for regular visits. Because of recent detainments by the North Koreans, relationships are continuing to get worse. Citizens have recently been released in 2009 and 2010. Conditions continue to get worse because of concerns of nuclear development in North Korea also. The US and South Korea joined forces on drills despite the norths warnings. Without Sweden, chances of getting the man back would be slim.

    People have no care about anybody else which is why they keep hopping the border. Little do they know that every person that enters our country illegally, could be the person who takes your job in a year or two. Its hard to stop all of this but our country needs to devote even more attention to the border and all of the problems with it.

    Lucas ~ reread your post and think about better ways you could have said some of the things above to be less offensive. Sometimes, we can better convey our views and get our point across when we speak more appropriately. Think about it. If you want to convince someone or persuade someone to think as you do, you'll never get the chance if you turn them off by offending them. Does that make sense?

Intense Situation Room Photo - 0 views

  •  
    The photo shown subliminally describes how much the United States has changed in the past few decades. African-American males went from being the people to avoid, the people who commit crimes, the people who make our country look bad, to one of them "terrible" African-Americans being the alpha male of our country. We have broken the racial threshold after electing a black president. The image shows that women can also be extremely powerful, too. When John F. Kennedy was president, for example, it would be otherworldly to have a woman with as much power as Hilary Clinton. I believe this country has taken a step forward in accepting people for who they are, and not the color of their skin.

Gas prices may have PEAKED - 2 views

shared by brett V. on 26 Apr 11 - No Cached
  •  
    Gas prices jumped more than 11 cents over the past two weeks. The pace of higher pump prices has slowed and they may have peaked. The average gallon is just 23 cents off the all-time high of $4.1. They say the weakening of demand and slower rate of rise may keep it from hitting the all time average.
  •  
    Gas prices have been on the rise for a while now. Surveys say the average cost of a gallon of gas in the United States two weeks ago was $3.76 but now it rose to $3.88. The prices in the past two weeks rose more than 11 cents. Publisher Trilby Lundberg says gas prices may be at their peak right now.

    Wow if they keep going up like this its crazy noones going to have money to do anything anymore

Experts Say DNA Match Is Likely a Parent or Child - 0 views

  •  
    Federal officials say the analysis of DNA from relatives confirms that Osama bin Laden is dead. However, the federal officials have not disclosed the relationship of the family. The test confirmed his identity with 99.9 percent accuracy. Since the tests were so accurate they believe that source of the DNA must have been from a parent or child of bin Laden. However, bin Laden did not have any full siblings. He did have 50 half-siblings, some of them had close ties to the United States.

Earthquake in japan - Video Footage - 0 views

    Powerful video of earthquake and tsunami in Japan

  •  
    People say what happened in Japan isn't natural, yet its nothing but natural. What do you think when the Mammoths roamed the earth and the ice age happened. There was nothing they could do, and that leads me to the earthquake in Japan. Yes, it was high for normal numbers these days but the worlds axis rotating which is natural.
  •  
    I think its awesome to see how countries come together at a time like this. This should make the United States feel better about themselves also. By helping others, it will give us a good impact and if we are in need of help someone will be there for us.
  •  
    Absolutely, Kristen. It is very devastating, too, and unfortunate. Most people don't realize that it is in every country's best interest to do so. In this day and age, our economies are much more interdependent and like throwing a pebble into the pond, there will be some ripple effects that will surface within our own economy as a result of the Japanese events.

U.S. population is beginning to slump. - 1 views

  •  
    The United States was once one of the most rapidly growing countries in the world, but that is not the case now. Slow population growth can be a good thing, as the U.S. is in a recession the way it is, and more people can make it worse, especially with jobs currently being difficult to find. From the 90's to 2000, the U.S. was growing at 13.2%, and from 2000 to 2010, it has grown 9.7%. 43% of the growth is Hispanics, which shows how rapidly we our adapting to a diverse community. Studies show that the U.S. is becoming a middle aged country, which will most likely harm us if we don't get out of the recession, because that will be even more money being drained once all the middle aged people are able to collect Social Security.

American detained in North Korea. - 0 views

  •  
    Not much information given although there is an American citizen being detained in North Korea. The United States is working extremely hard to negotiate the Americans release. This wouldn't be the first time North Korea has captured and held an American citizen hostage. North Korea has detained several Americans in recent years, increasing tension levels between the two countries.
  •  
    They shouldn't do that to Americans. We should have our rights in other countries too.
  •  
    Just because we are americas it shouldn't give people the right in other countries to treat us like dirt.

More rain, Are you kidding me? - 0 views

  •  
    Rare and dangerous thunderstorms and possible tornadoes could appear Tuesday in northeast Texas, Mississippi and the southern part of the United State. Very large hail and damaging winds are also to be expected. It doesn't stop on Tuesday, on Wednesday there is also a severe thunderstorm warning. We just started getting nice weather for the first time all year and its all about to get ruined by the raging wind and thunderstorms.

Obama born in U.S. - 1 views

  •  
    Skeptics and conspiracy theorists have been attacking president Obama with their doubts that he was born in America. Statistics show that 25% of citizens have doubt of his birth on U.S. soil. But, evidence has shown that he is a U.S. citizen. And was born in Hawaii. Proof such as the document of his birth in the newspaper, the birth certificate, and memories of the current governer of Hawaii as Barack was a baby.

    This is good, this will make all the skeptics finally shut up about our president being an American.
  •  
    The government can make the people of the United States believe whatever they want us to believe. Just because some piece of paper was copied onto a newspaper doesn't necessarily make something true. I believe that until there is an actual visual of his birth certificate then no so many people are going to believe that he really is a us citizen.
  •  
    Not according to Donald Trump.
  •  
    Obama may have been born in usa but he dont act it
