Renda, there is some very strange deal with very small contributions coming from some odd name like Happy Face or some such down in Austin Tx. those small contributions from the same odd (yet not real) name arent being tracked due to laws about small contributions.
however, they add up to millions of dollars. and there is some quesiton that some of that (and i mean lots of $$$) is comeing from over seas.
Obama may have a problem.
If it turns out that Sen. Obama has a verifiable role in some kind of corruption scheme, he will not get my vote.
I can hold my nose and vote for Sen. McCain-- I'm not that drunk on any candidate's kool aid.
The WHOLE reason why Sen. Obama is so apealing to me has a lot to do with the fact that he is NOT just another politician.
I really want to see what comes of this.

Have you heard Black people talk about rioting in the Black community as a distinct and real possibility?
Unfortunately, yes I have (and notice the quote):

I followed the link but did not see what you were talking about. Please advise.
If you're referring to my post... the link was in response to tstew's question:

I answered in the affirmative, and provided a link to Fatimah Ali's article. She didn't merely predict rioting if McCain wins, but a full fledged race war. (I provided the direct quote there in my post also.)

RICO is the federal ACT used to prosecute organized crime. There seems to be a rumor that a RICO investigation has begun that may end up linking ACORN, Barak Obama, Nancy Pelosi, and Howard Dean among others.
There could be absolutely nothing to it or it could be the beginning of the end for B. Hussein Obama..... and company.
Great Merciful Zeus! Tomorrow could be the start of Fitzmas: rumor in Chicago is Patrick Fitzgerald is investigating ACORN and Senator Obama campaign for RICO violations
Ferd what is the short verison of what is RICO?

In 1970, Congress passed the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations (RICO) Act, Title 18, United States Code, Sections 1961-1968. At the time, Congress' goal was to eliminate the ill-affects of organized crime on the nation's economy. To put it bluntly, RICO was intended to destroy the Mafia.

I knew about that just didn't recognize it called RICO, but thanks for the heads up.

TR, with all due respect, I'm talking about real people, not some nut with a pen. You will find a quack to say just about anything. I'm seeing the majority of real people both black and white scoff at these remarks and see them as fear-mongering on one hand and posturing on the other. Personally, I doubt I would take anything Fatimah Ali of the Philadelphia Enquirer wrote seriously...and I doubt you or anybody else would either. I'm sure that this will be the first and only time that you or anyone else has quoted her. It's just that this particular extreme quote fits into the fear-mongering that some on the right have been putting out there. I'm sure that they will be looking to her in the future for insight on what will happen in our nation...not
