It really doesn't matter who is President, or how "polarizing" he is; all it takes is one kook. , even Gerry Ford lived through an assassination attempt.
This was brought up on another forum I frequent. I never really thought about it until today. I just don't see it happening in our country today, not unless Obama becomes a very decisive and polarizing President which I don't think he will be.

All it takes is one lone nut, and there is never a shortage of those in the US.
Well with McCain saying he is a terrisist I think it makes it a tad bit more of a chance.
As did Reagan.
I didn't think there was any greater chance of Obama getting assassinated than any former President. That is, until I watched those videos of McCain supporters calling the guy a terrorist, an Arab (like it's a bad thing), a Muslim, and that he should be killed. That's some scary .
Why can't we all just get along.

Let's not even contemplate this.
a what?
with Joe Biden as his VP?
Get ing serious. Pretty sure that's why Obama picked him. If he'd picked anyone else he'd have a very good chance at a bullet between the eyes, but not with Biden. Biden's worse you see.
Like Ann Coulter said...the Biden pick was insurance against being assasinated...that's why he picked him.
That Obama is a socialist is reasonable speculation but still speculation...that Biden is one isn't.
How old are you? Seriously.
I thought you were going to say that this thread is irrelevant, with McCain winning in a landslide and what not...

Except that Tricky Noxi-er-Nixon already tried that gambit: the urban legend {well before any of us had ever heard the term "urban legend"} of the time said that Gerald Ford was his insurance against impeachment
If it was going to happen it would have when he was running heads up against Team Clinton.
I mean there's always a chance that some guy will attempt it...that's the case for any President though.
As for hate mongering..get serious, no President in history has ever been hated mongered more against than W was.
seriously i cannot believe how much bigotry is left in the US. Those videos were definitely chilling
Or if Hillary were Odumba's VP candidate and they got elected--I figure about March...
"When I heard someone in a Palin crowd yell out "traitor" as the candidate lashed out at the Democratic nominee, I thought of the full-page ad that appeared in a Dallas newspaper on the morning of Nov. 22, 1963. The headline--"Wanted for Treason"-- was sprawled across a poster-sized photo of President John F. Kennedy."

Lee Harvey Oswald probably didn't pay for that ad, did he?
America's cowboy, gun-loving, kill-loving culture is fully capable of murdering HUSSEIN, and the Repugs and their inflammatory, radicalizing, lie-saturated, and hate-saturated politicking will be 100% culpable.

I actually think the possibility is terrifyingly real and have for some time. And the political repercussions are equally frightening. That's why Hillary's comments about RFK being assassinated struck such a chord with Obama supporters, and why Palin's recent comments have likewise riled them up. It all stokes the fire for some nutjob to take things into his own hands, and many (African-Americans especially) have feared that from the beginning.
So much hate for the right. Where/why did you develop this?
Also, saying "they cling to their guns and religion"...he's pretty much instigating an assassination attempt with that dumbass remark.
i think he would be dead withing 7 months
he is a muslim and he said he is not
they hate that
So in the end we can say it's his fault. Classy.
