Can The Old Man Do This????
Posted by Bossip Staff
Here is Barack Obama in Portland, Oregon yesterday. The brotha’s campaign reportedly broke a presidential campaign rally record with over 75,000 supporters. For all these doubters who were not with Bossip last year in believing Obama would do well and likely win the presidency, have your opinions changed?
Far too many times our people put artificial ceilings on what we can or cannot do. Discuss..

First!
Hey Sydney, if you show up. Hi! Luv u Boo!
Wow! I love that we will soon have our 1st black president!!
OMG, it looks so hot .. It seems that guy is dating online now. I saw his profile on dating site “W e a l t h y lo v I n g . c o m” last week. It is said he is dating young billionaire on that site.
I love it!!
I am so proud of Oregon for supporting Barack. Cant wait to know the results from Tuesdays election. I had mixed feelings about Oregon on who they will support. We will surely see what happens!!!
WOW, I never thought that he would even be in contention for the presidency but I was wrong. Way to go Barack
Barack is the Future!
This is the most awesome picture I have ever seen! Thanks Bossip for sharing!
You people do realize that these people are a part of my constituency and i sent them there to give Obama a false sense of hope. Trust me, come Tuesday, there will be one collective thunderous cry: “PSYCHE!” when the final ballots are counted, and i’m announced the winner!
I love Barack and am hating on Mike Huckabee for the gun remark. Why doesn’t CNN get on him?
yes we can…….&…….YES WE WILL!
This campaign has made me very grateful for a few things:
To George Bush for screwing this country up so badly that Americans of all colors have finally united for the greater good.
The internet and various news shows that have exposed the hypocrisy and fallacy of many of Obama’s detractors(see John McCain and Hamas/ Hillary Clinton and gas breaks)
The election for showing me the true nature of Clintons. I was so blind
The entire Obama campaign, for all those who believed long before me that America could elect a black man.
Finally, to my people who have for the first time in a long time refused to let history and BS stand in the way. African AMericans stood up and reminded the Democratic party that we can and do matter in elections. This race started with the courting of the latino vote but it ended with North Carolina standing the _________Up.
De…..
I’m from Arkansas, and went to high school with his daughter. I’m not a fan of Mike Huckabee, but trust me when I say thats not his character. I think he tried to pose a joke that went flat. He’s a minister, and wouldn’t DARE speak death upon anyone. I think the media tired to put their own spin on that comment. But no one’s covering it, cause he wont hold weight when *****yzed, due to his character. He’s not the type to play that way.
That Hilary imposter comment above was weird …among other things. Moreover, Obama 08!!!
This is beautiful……
SPEAK BOSSIP!
A believer from day one!
Obama 2008-2016!
Oh, YES WE ABSOLUTELY CAN!
WOW! Ilove it! I would like to order a White House on the rocks, please. Send it to that stable to Mr. Obama.
Love’s It!!! Barack Obama is a true ROCK STAR!!!!
Barack the Vote!!!!!
a.b. in dc your post brings tears of power and joy to my eyes. I too have my first reason to be consiously proud to be an american.
i believed in him from day one.
i love you barack

ADD ME PELASE
WOW. . .no way he can lose.
Excuse me- I meant to say – I would like to order a White House on the rocks, please. Send it to the TABLE to Mr Obama. Thanks for accepting my apologies.
I hope Oregon have their poll places organized with supplies and necessities for a smooth voting experience.
For our elders who are not with us to see this…
Yes We Can!
where’s pastor manning’s latest video? he says obama and rev. wright were lovers! speaking of tranny, michelle obama looks like buck wheat in drag!
obama sucks! literally!
I saw the Huckabee comment made about a someone shooting at Senator Obama. Why hasn’t the media jumped all over that statement???
OBAMA 08!!!!
DNT VOTE FOR BARACK OBAMA EVERY ANY ONE OF YOU DID YA’LL RESEARCH ON HIM KNOWLEDGE IS EVERYTHING VOTE *RON PAUL* 2008
Im enthusiastic about this one. Obama 08
***Waves church fan*** I want this black man to go ‘head!
obama is on the downlow!
YES THE HELL WE CAN!!!!! I loves it!
OBAMA 08 I KNEW HE COULD DO IT!!
Thsi is awesome! I have to borrow this pic!

The right time, the right man, the planets are all aligned.
I finally feel like we will ALL come together. It is possible and maybe America can be post-racial politics. It gives me hope for so many different reasons.
GO BARACK!!!
Yeah, it is pretty darn cool to see and behold!
@ a.b. in dc You took the words right out of my mouth
OBAMA ‘08!!!
Bossip is ageist and even though McCain is like 71, I still think he is ten times hotter than Barack Obama. Has anybody seen young pics of McCain in his uniform? You all just don’t know.
This is a destiny type thing…
Obama 08!! All the way!! Oregon Stand up!!
Stay united people, let’s make it happpen!! Yes we Can!!
That’s a beautiful picture.
This is so beautiful… I always knew my man Barack could do big things… this is what the country needs…. he will change our world, I truly believe that.. He will change the way the rest of the world views the US…. Yes we will!
Obama 08!! That picture is a beautiful sight!!
Those poor white people. They showed up thinking that it was a Grateful Dead concert, only to be disappointed. Oh, the inhumanity of it all.
AMEN!
Yep, I’m so proud of my hometown! My cousin who worked with Obama’s campaign said Portland was going to do it up and they didn’t disappoint.
Go Oregon!!!
That pic doesn’t mean *****!
You are playing the game so things have not changed. Look up your old civics notes and see what the prez of the US’s duties are. Obama ain’t going to do *****! Ask him if he’ll help the originals of the country make it to the top:The Native Americans. Yeah, that’ll go over real well with the whites that run this *****ing country. I’m black and I will not and will never be pursuaded to vote for a black man as prez for a white dominated country!
Hey, I would rather see an Indian(East) or an Ansian as president. *****, they going to be running the world anyway so we should give them a taste of running one of their future territories.
Hmmm…do I belive that obama can win? I always have. Do I believe in his rhetoric? Nah..that hasnt changed and probably wont. Knowing the issues….knowing the root cause of all this *****. That is why I (GASP!) dont support Ron Paul any more. I think Ron Paul is the lesser of the three evils, however an evil none the less.
WOW THIS WAS AMAZING! THE LOVE THIS CAT GOT SHOULD MAKE HILLARY QUIT RIGHT NOW, THE BYTCH AINT GOTTA CHANCE!
SMDH FOR PRESIDENT IN 08! SHE WILL HELP THE PLIGHT OF THE BLACK MAN, CUZ SHE HOLDS OUR BEST INTEREST CLOSE TO HER HEART. WE ARE THE VERY AIR THAT SHE BREATHES.
Obama is about change, but our ppl are not willing and are not ready for “change”! Blk ppl “change” is the basis of “growth”.We need growth i order to change.And “to change your life,you must change your mind”.But if you are too rebelliously proud” to change,it will make you too “ignorantly stupid” to grow.This is a problem with us BLACKFOLKS.This “false pride”. This “insecurity” attempting to mask itself as “pride”……
OUR BLACKPEOPLE are naturally “full of pride” but dont really have anything to be proud about.WE JUST PROUD TO BE PROUD…JUST *****KING SILLY.We will walk around with our head up, and chest sticking out for no reason at all.We aint got “no money” we aint got “no status”.We aint got “no cl*****”.And we definitely aint got no sense”.All we got is some damn pride”.What good will blk be to OBAMA or what good will we be to him if we are cant change our condition!!!
whatever go somewhere and swallow nails.
im pretty sure ur a clinton or old ***** mccain supporter.
tell both to sit their *****es down, OBAMA WILL WIN.
DUMB BYTCH LEARN SOMETHING!*****EM ALL! WE ARE NOT GOING TO ACHIEVE ***** YOU IGNORANT *****WIPE!
Terry are you seriously stupid? No white, asian or indian person is going to be running this world in the future, because this world is less than 50 years from destruction!!!!!
MY BAD THOUGHT THAT WAS DIRETED TO ME!OOPS!!!
Cl***** of 08″ In the house ,Holla!!! Congrats to all the 08 graduates, Obama 08 yes we can
love me some obama , 08 you go
YES WE CAN 08!!!!!!
Most East Indians and Asians in this country are apolitical. They will never run anything for several reasons:
1. India has the highest AIDS rates in the world = no power
2. China is going to collapse under the weight of its m***** industrialization
3. Indians and Asians in America are less than 1% of the population and care more about doing nails and selling curry than politics
I like how we complain about the lack of change and then when change comes we say it won’t make a difference. But what do you expect from black people who hate themselves so much that they hate on another black man just to prove how smart they are because they think on the inside that a) they are the only smart black person ever or b) they are a fake and constantly have to prove how smart they are because black people aren’t smart.
OBAMA!
This truly amazing! I am so happy to see this. GO OBAMA!!!
I am proud that he is half kenyan, like me;)
I live in the Caribbean and I have followed his campaign. YES WE CAN …. YES HE WILL
Africans doin’ it BIG!
Obama is on fire with the young folks, but can he change the older voters who are stuck in their way?
We’ll see if he can do it….Personally I think he’ll get snowjobbed in the end.
From here in the UK I just wanna say ”Go Get ‘Em Obama !”
I’m starting to actually believe that Barack can do the damn thing!!!
This is very inspiring. History can be made. We need a change.
In the words of Gina Waters: YOU BETTA GO BOY!!!
LET’S DO THIS OBAMA!!!LET’S DO IT, LET’S DO IT, LET’S DO IT DO IT DO IT!!!
AND NAH…THE OLD MAN OR CURRENT PRESIDENT COULDN’T/CAN’T DO THIS!!
Making it rain on them hoe’s BUSH AND McCain !!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY MALCOLM X….R.I.P.
Go Barack! Not because he is black, but because he is going in the right direction
I hope the Ron Paul and Hillary supporters can take this as a hint to STAND THE EFF DOWN!
you lost! stop waisting your votes, money and energy unless you truly want to see mccain carry out GW Bush’s 3rd term.
Unite or perish
Love it!!
I definitely changed my view. I support Barack and I hope he goes all the way…we need something new and someone new to turn this country around and to change our reputation in the world.
obama. obama. obama…..obama!! i just love type his name.
Yes we can.
Beautiful! It brings tears to my eyes. I knew from the day Oprah asked Obama to consider the run for presidency he would be a force to be reckoned with. I am so proud!!
Wow! How awesome…! Go Obama!
@Marquis de Sade
LOL, was that really you? You know me too well. Yes We Can!
@lovely and amazing
I left you a mesage on the T.I. post. I love your book club idea, and I really appreciate the thoughts you shared this weekend. I concur completely.
Beautiful is the best word to describe that. The media says that this man can’t stand up under pressure. BS! Obama has gone through more testing than any other candidate and is still fighting! GO OBAMA!
Thats whats up!Obama is gathering the m*****es of all races and creeds. When God has his hand over your life,you can move mountains.***** the press!
Incredible photo.
co sign-”incredible photo” seriously.we really need a change and i think obama will be the one to give us the change we need..
Per MSNBC:
The number was ACTUALLY 80,000 PEOPLE!! 65,000 within the gates and 15,000 outside!! YES WE CAN!!
yes we were hot as hell waiting on obama, but we’d have waited all day. yes we can!
Per NY Times — Hillary refuses to give up:
“Adding a new mathematical twist to her case for the Democratic presidential nomination, Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton said on Monday that she had not only won more popular votes than Senator Barack Obama, she had won states totaling far more electoral votes.”
MLK all over again!!!! Obama is going to take this nation by storm and rock the socks off of racist people!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! OBAMA 08
Senator Robert Byrd from good ole West Virginia just endorsed Obama. Byrd is 90 years old and a former KKK member back in the day 60 years ago.
Now that is progress
Yes We Can
Good for your Bossip. Good for you Obama!
That is amazing.
I knew you could do it brotha. Keep sending positive words and energy towards him…because in ‘08 things are going to be sweet.
75,000 suckas….voting for a man they barely know…
We can keep dreaming and perhaps the fantasy will come true. Don’t let the media brainwash you. McCain is the next President….mark my words. I would be very surprised if Obama takes the Presidency. Not that I don’t believe that our people have the power to succeed, it’s because politically, there is a small group in power and they keep that power amongst themselves.
Stand UP Oregon!
That visual is A-mazing….McLame couldnt get that kind of crowd on his BEST day….
YES WE CAN!
Obama 08!
CHURCH~!
PREACH BOSSIP….I WAS WITH U FROM DAY 1 BABY!
THAT PICTURE BRINGS TEARS TO MY EYES FOR REAL! THEY HAVE TRIED EVERYTHING TO THROW AT HIM AND HE IS NOT GOING DOWN! LOVE THIS BROTHER…..I MEAN WHITE AMERICA….(SOME) CANNOT UNDERSTAND, THEY ARE SO CONFUSED WHEN HE TURNS OUT WHOLE CITIES TO HEAR HIM SPEAK…….
OREGON STAND THE ***** UP!
It truly is a beautiful thing…
YES WE CAN!
08AMA!
never a doubt in my mind. i know brilliance, and i saw it when he spoke for john kerry when he was running. i automatically thought “who is this man?” i seriously thought i would be a part of history if obama ran for president. he got my vote already.
NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!I still will not VOTE for him, can’t people see he is a set up by the republicans? I will either vote republican or not vote at all before i vote for him.
I want the superdelegates to end this separation in the Democratic party. To me the majority has spoken and made its request clear. Obama should be the democratic nominee for November. Enough is enough. I believe I heard on the news that McCain had to make a personal hospital visit? McCain is really too old.
Karen
NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!I still will not VOTE for him, can’t people see he is a set up by the republicans? I will either vote republican or not vote at all before i vote for him.
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
A set up for what Karen?
Barack is the truth. Party like a rockstar Barack!!! It doesn’t surprise me that Portland went all out for Barack like this. I am so very proud to see this. My husband and I went there on vacation in 03′ and I knew that the vibe and the people there were on some next level ish! Yes we can Black people…Yes we can America.
For you people that feel like us trying to bring power back to the people of America is a lost cause… why don’t you just jump off a bridge. Obama is doing something… you should support him just to see how far he can actually get. He will prove once and for all if the people of the U.S. still have a voice.
OMG!!!!! That picture says it all. YES WE CAN!
Wrote a poem about “Can’t . . . ” wanna hear it, here it go:
“I can’t do this, I can’t do that!”
Did you at least try or simply declared a fact?
More than likely you won’t if you say you can’t;
I tend to disagree with the “I can’t” slant.
Dreams, goals and aspirations are what can’t lacks!
Can’t is restrictive and will hold you back.
Hard work and perseverance will see you through.
There are no limits to what you can do!
Some tasks are easier than they initially seem.
Put forth an effort, realizing your dreams.
Nothing worth having is easily obtained,
Be it education, wealth, strength or fame.
Spring forward while moving ahead.
Fall backwards but move forward instead.
Put negativity behind and let it push you through.
You’re destined for greatness, believe me, it’s true!
Self-confidence is something that money can’t buy.
Next time you say you can’t, ask yourself did you try.
Some doors will close whereas others open wide.
You’ll never know what’s open until you’ve at least tried.

Terry been lickin Hillary Clinton bootay. hey ***** your breath stank and it smell like *****. clean that ***** up.
HillBilly reminds me of that pitchfork couple and looks like slavemasters. Hillary playing yall out…..be smart black people. dont fall for that hoe. superman her out of the race.
Barack is our only hope of saving and redemption. god has been very angry with selecting a leader of our people and now that we found it. here comes folks hating strong. lets keep it going were winning this race. hold on tight.
OMFG..this shyt is real…
Makes me mad about those JIGGA BOO states that wont show support but Shay Whitie be down all the time!
YEAH BARACK!!!!
Texas Delegate 08′
HOLLLLAAAA!
did everybody forget elections are rigged. bush already said a republican will be president.
I support Barack Obama 100%
Bossip step your game up!! people who attended the Portland, Oregon Obama event. Well, Fox news ALREADY reported that there was a concert happening too. In fact Fox news mentioned how all the other networks didn’t report that there was the concert and how the other stations made it seem like they were ALL there for Obama.
Shay— What Karen means the Republicans have more on Obama and his campaign than they have on Hillary. Everything they have on HER is old. Ken Starr spent 70MILLION DOLLARS investigating the Clintons and guess what they found? nothing. Obama has skeletons (yes, like everyone else) but its not good when you’re a new candidate and people are skeptical about him. To the republicans he is an easy candidate to beat, we shall see. The republicans may be a silly bunch but you cant knock their research skills. Lets see how fast Bossip throws Obama under the bus.
It’s so right and correct to pcik Barack to be that White House! Barack is about bein for all people, and not about the ‘dunn dunn’ bull***** that Hillary and John represents. We need BArack, and America will be *****ed up if they don’t elect him!
