Joines Endorses Obama
It turns out that Winston-Salem’s mayor decided to endorse Barack Obama after all.
After initially saying he was leaning toward Obama, Mayor Allen Joines told Trail Mix last week — seemingly with a great bit of certainty — that he did not intend to endorse either candidate. But at Obama’s rally in Winston-Salem today, Joines introduced Obama and threw his support behind him.
“Winston-Salem has had to undergo a lot of change, and we still have a lot of change to come to move ourselves to a more successful, more solid economy. I believe Barack Obama is the person who can lead the change for Winston-Salem and for this country,” Joines said.
The Democratic mayors of Raleigh, Durham and Greensboro have previously endorsed Obama. Now, Joines joins them.

We now know;
- Wright is a lunatic, not taken out of
“context”
- Obama attended it 20 years - then runs
as a racial uniter, with superior judgment,
to whom words matter. Looked the other way
on such hate-speech, when it was helping
him politically in IL. Now that the same
extremist ideology starts harming him,
he is “outraged”. Only a dunce cannot
see the hypocrisy.
- Joines is a dunce. Whom looks the other
way on the fact, that Obama looked the
other way for 20 years. Wake up, NC

Think it through, folks. Obama is the only one who can change how things work in Washington, the only one who is honest with the American people, the only one who will really fight for you as President. Guilt by association has no place in this campaign!
Obama 08!

OBAMA VULCAN MIND MELD ONLY WORKS on politicians and human cubs ages 18-24 (earth years). Kool-Aid is needed to convince thinking adults that Obama is more qualified than Hillary to be the next President.
Lacking any biography of political accomplishment, it is natural we should wonder what makes the new kid on the block tick. We should wonder about Barack Obama’s character and beliefs ie:Black Liberation Theology. We want to know the man and the company he keeps ie:Rezko,Ayres,Prof.Lessing etc.
