    "There are no excuses. The future is up to us," Obama said.

    Obama makes rare campaign trail appearance, people leave early
    A steady stream of people walked out of the auditorium while he spoke, however, and a heckler interrupted his remarks.

    Speaking of domestic enemies and elections....

    Elizabeth Warren: 'The game is rigged, and the Republicans rigged it'
    Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) pulled no punches Saturday at a campaign event for fellow Democratic Sen. Al Franken (Minn.), accusing Republicans of having "rigged" the system against average Americans.

    "The game is rigged, and the Republicans rigged it," she said.

    Rare campaign appearance? He hasn't stopped campaigning since he got named as a nominee. It's just that some politicians don't want to be associated with him and would rather he not campaign for them which is why they might consider this a rare campaign trail appearance.

    They mean campaigning for other domestic enemies.
    The last thing most of them want is for him to campaign for them it seems.

    I can't believe that Minnesota is going to reelect Franken. 'Course, I couldn't believe it when
    he won last time by, what, 300 votes. 'Course, I can't believe Obama got reelected.

    He didn't win. Just did enough recounts to find more ballots in trunks of cars. Same with Gov. Dayton. This is why LAGC and Kadmos are against photo I'd be required to vote.

    "There are no excuses"...

    From the master of excuses and finger pointing...

    I'm certainly reassured about our leadership now.
    If we refuse to rule ourselves with reason, then we shall be ruled by our passions.

    He, Who Will Not Reason, Is a Bigot; He, Who Cannot, Is a Fool; and He, Who Dares Not, Is a Slave. -Sir William Drummond

    There are some things I will not abide within my sight!

    The only rigging I've seen done lately by Republicans is trying to kick out third party votes, and I don't see any Democraps crying "foul!" either.
