Obama coming to Ky. soon
U.S. Sen. Barack Obama's presidential campaign issued a vague news release Friday morning that says he will make his third visit to Kentucky "early next week."
No other details of the visit were released. Obama has previously visited Louisville and Lexington, but both of those visits came last year.
"We're ecstatic that Senator Obama will be returning to our great state of Kentucky," said Carolyn Tandy, state director of Obama's Kentucky campaign. "Senator Obama has spent his life fighting for working families, and we're happy that voters will be able to hear first hand his plan to bring America together to deliver real change in Washington."
The announcement comes after Clinton agreed to attend a state Democratic Party fund-raiser in Louisville Friday night. Obama declined an invitation to the event and will instead campaign in Oregon.

Obama doesn't care about KY or the working poor. while a lawmaker he never had any big pieces of legislation to present to congress. BOs plans of no labor unions or oversight of existing unions shows that. He only courts the AA vote and there is not much of that in KY so don't be surprised if he is a flash in the pan no show in the next week.

FRAUD AND FALSE STATEMENTS
(18USC1001)
Whoever, in any matter within the jurisdiction of the executive, legislative, or
judicial branch of the Government of the United States, knowingly and
willfully--
(1) falsifies, conceals, or covers up by any trick, scheme, or
device a material fact;
(2) makes any materially false, fictitious, or fraudulent
statement or representation; or
(3) makes or uses any false writing or document knowing the same
to contain any materially false, fictitious, or fraudulent statement
or entry;
THE BOTTOM LINE.....SENATOR OBAMA LIED AND PLANNED A WRITTEN SCHEME FOR THE PRESIDENCY. He lied and planned a scheme for Illinois Senator.
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Practicing Law in the real world and Teaching Law in College is entirely different. Obama as a Law Professor, in college, reviewed the weekness and strength of past caseS. He never was a Constitutional Attorney. He label himself a Constitutional Attorney
Some of the best Attorneys are Prisoners, who have been wrongfully convicted and Represented Themselves... In my Opinion, if Obama felt that he could not win a Case, then, he didnot take it.
To make a long story short, I don't think Hillary would ever consider being your VP Running Mate. You better get that Peanut Farmer from Georgia. Jimmy Carter wouldnot know the different between a Slide Rule and A Calculator...... MORE POWER TO OBAMA and JIMMY CARTER in 2008, NOW YOU CAN LIVE OUT YOUR FANTASY. YOU GOT YOUR ENGINEER.
The Superdelegates better listen to The Superdelegate from ILLINOIS..... If by chance Obama win, then, he will be a weak president. Jimmy Carter was a weak president. That why Iran saw thru the American System And held AMERICAN HOSTAGES under the Jimmy Carter Presidency. America, due to George W. Bush, is almost last in Technology. But, on the otherhand,one of the first in Weapons of MASS DESTRUCTION.
SINCE YOU ARE NOW A QUOTA, I GUESS YOU WILL BRING BACK THE "QUOTA SYSTEM", PUTTING MORE MINORITIES IN POSITION. WHETHER THEY ARE QUALIFIED OR NOT.

Sorry, Susan, the most experienced candidate in this race will sweep Ky. Hillary will send the phony Barack Hussein Obama back to the foot stool of the northeast liberals. CHANGE? Hillary will be the first woman elected president, now that's change, for a change!
SHAME on our leaderless governor and the lackluster party chair for the stupidity, but then again...
