We have 59 states, according to Obama...

[Peaking at 45 !!!]

Go to you tube , type in Obama 57 states and you will see him talking about how he says he thinks he has visited about 57 states so far, with 2 more to go (Alaska and Hawaii). So 57 plus 2 equals 59 !!! Heck, we might as well round it off to 60 states for the fun of it !!! This is the man who wants to be President of the United States ? I dont have much more time to type, as I am busy learning and teaching my children Spanish as Obama suggests. We dont need to teach our kids useless things like being sulf sufficient, working hard to achieve goals, respecting your parents , balancing a checkook, managing money, etc. No, Obamas more concerned about making sure we all learn Spanish !!!  Forget about immigrants learning English, we need to learn to speak Spanish (Go to You tube and type in Obama Spanish).

God Bless all 59 of the Socialist States Of America !!!!!!!!!!

rascism

What does rascism mean ? Is that a new word ?  See what I mean about not stressing the basics (like learning to spell simple words ! )

[Cromespyder]

old.  he said ive been to 57 states and going to 2 more and something about not going to alaska. . .so i assume he meant 47 states, 47+2+alaska=50.  do you honestly believe he thinks we have 60 states?

id say this demonstrates a much higher level of incompetence. . .

Oh oh !!! Here we go again, I clearly spelled out the statement, and you got it wrong !!!  Hes been to 57 states with 2 more to go (Alaska and Hawaii) 57 and 2 is 59 !!!!!!!!!  So if you go by your logic, then he thinks we have 49 states !!! Or is this a case of , my mind is already made up, dont confuse me with the facts ?


Thats the point !!!! Obama doesnt even know how many States we have !!!  GO to the clip and you will see, as he pauses and reflects before he says the word "57" so it is not a slip of the tongue... just someone who is not smarter than a 5th grader !!!

I did this. I'll preface what I'm saying with the fact that my sound card SUCKS, and I can't hear to well.
Obama did not pause then say 57. He started to say "Fifty" and and his voice started to trail off, and then said "seven." Both pretty clearly.
Again my sound card sucks so I can't say this confidently, but to me it sounded like Obama started to say 50 states, then skipped to something else in his head and out came the word seven.
In other words, maybe it's being taken out of context?

Wow !!!!  You just dont want to believe, do you ? You should be a Politician !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

haha. bullshit, just watched the video.
he said hes bee to 57 states with 1 left to go, but hes not allowed to go to alaska and hawaii.
owned.
(im not an obama or mccain supported btw, youre grasping at straws though)

[Peaking at 45 !!!]

So far, the limited responses have been it must have been a slip of the tongue, taken out of context, etc. Well, thats why its so sad. Because the man doesnt even know how many States we have !!!!  


C'mon, this guy wants to be President ?

Its like the old saying, I dont blame Obama for running, I blame the people who put him there.

Hey, want to really stump Obama ? Ask him who the 1st President of the United States was !!!

[Mad Nickels]

THIS is why people are voting for Obama.


Because on the left, people are talking about things that matter - the economy, the war.  Unemployment.  Housing crisis.

On the right, they're cherry picking quotes from months ago where he misspoke while doing math in his head.

Obviously he's a Senator, and he knows there are 50 states.  And obviously, most people with half a brain believe that.

If you think Obama - with a law degree from harvard and a decade in the senate, really thinks there's 60 states, then you're a moron.

[freespirit]

You will get the president that you deserve. Obama or Mc.Cain, neither of them is capable to make a change for the better.

Do you honestly believe that Obama thinks you have 59 states in the USA?

Youre all making my point perfectly !!!!!!!!!   You hear it with your own ears, and you still refuse to believe it ! I am neither Republician or Democrat, but choose rather to vote for the one I respect and believe in the most.

So everyone here is saying... When Obama talks, you cant believe everything he is saying ?

[YoungBlood]

Wow !!!!  You just dont want to believe, do you ? You should be a Politician !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Let me guess, you're voting for McCain?

It's not that I don't believe, I understand that some people-even potential presidents- can make mistakes. I'm giving him the benefit of the doubt.

Take comprehension, or at least visit Wiki to find out what the definition is.

[Canadian_Muscle]

I love how everybody in america always whines about the people running for president...  

You idiots have made sure everyone else in the world knows how dumb your current president is, yet you're the ones who elected him... for a second term to boot.

That's why they deserve the president of their choice.

Why does there have to be a left , or a right ?  We are all in this together !!!  Both candidates want whats best for the country, I have no doubt about it. They have similar and different ideas about how to get there, but from what I can see from all this ...

MANY PEOPLE ARE JUST TOO LAZY OR AFRAID TO TAKE PERSONAL RESPONSIBILITY FOR THEIR OWN LIVES OR ACTIONS, SO HERE COMES GOVERNMENT TO BAIL THEM OUT !!!

lol...desperate.
 

[erokyrwrld]

Ever think he might have been saying his tour included hit a couple states twice, for example, larger states like Texas and California? 

[CQ]

Oh dear, a mispeak was all. Mad Nickels is right, anyone who thinks a magna cum laude Harvard lawyer doesn't know how many states there are really needs to stop and think.

So lets all launch into McCain saying Putin was President of Germany, not knowing names of a secretary of state, saying the "C" word on the podium, messing up the shia/sunni thing etc etc etc....

Everyone does it, and I think both those 2 have done pretty well considering how much they campaign, and how every single word they say is picked on.

Good point here.  I think "Peaking at 45 !!!" is just desperately trying to sway people to vote mccain.
