"In a sign of what could be an extremely unusual fall campaign, the two sides said Saturday that they would be open to holding joint forums or unmoderated debates across the country in front of voters through the summer."

I hated the moderated debates on both sides. The moderators hampered the debates and unintentionally or intentionally side tracked real issues for superficial ones and tended to favor some candidates over others.

Republicans will seek to portray Mr. Obama as out of touch with many voters on issues like abortion and gay rights.

In the eyes of the Obama campaign, Mr. McCain's chief weaknesses include continuing to embrace the Iraq war, his support for extending the administration's tax cuts for the wealthiest Americans (he once opposed the idea) and his suggestion that the economy had made "great progress" in the last eight years.

But, I did predicted that an Afro-American will be next American president. I created 12 pictures that was exhibited 2007 in Dong Shan City (June) and November art Festival in Beijing. You can see them on my website (www . haiyingart . com/BlackPresident.html) or, just go to my profile.

Checked out your website and viewed your art. Impressive. Your art gave a condensed view of African-American life of a proud people that were subjugated but persevered and are now on the verge of having a man of color become the next president of the United States of America.

Replace "W/2004" with a "M/2008". That is what your country will get with John McCain. Four more years of the same stuff. With all the pressures that Obama will put on John McCain in debates and TV ads, about McCain's flip flop personality, it will be a miracle if he even survives without getting a stroke or heart attack.

I like this idea now we can hear the candidates and not have to deal with the talking heads and their bosses agendas. I like that they will talk about the issues the people poses as appose to the cooperations.
