He has been ran a business, a sports team, and was Governor of one of the most diverse states in the country before becoming President.

In college his grades were better than KERRY or Gore's.

Your opinions please?

Sen. Barack Obama (D-Ill.) seems to have Sen. Hillary Clinton right where he wants her. Her campaign is constantly reacting to what he does.

This includes her recent appearance in Selma, Ala., in which she reinvented her own past. Clinton, speaking at Selma's First Baptist Church on the 42nd anniversary of the "bloody Sunday" freedom march there, declared: "As a young girl [age 16], I had the great privilege of hearing Dr. King speak in Chicago. The year was 1963. My youth minister from our church took a few of us down on a cold January night to hear [King]. ... And he called on us, he challenged us that evening to stay awake during the great revolution that the civil rights pioneers were waging on behalf of a more perfect union."

That all sounds great, except that the young Hillary went on the following year to become a supporter of Republican presidential candidate Barry Goldwater, who opposed the Civil Rights Act of 1964.

I know the Constitution very well and try as I might, I haven't been able to find any violations. Everything he has done is covered (not specifically) in Presidential Powers in the Constitution and Amendments. Presidential powers are fairly open to interpretation (ex.: Supreme Court decisions), like other perceived or actual citizen rights and the like.

Was he lying?

Before saying that Romney "envisioned" that, or that it was meant to be symbolic or figurative... please watch the short youtube clip. Then share your view.
