Did Obama buy his Election?

I found a banner on the top of the forums regarding the election. I want to know what people from x10Hosting think about this.


Did Barack Obama buy his election?


As alot of people know Obama spent a great amount of money on his presidential campaign, with a total at least doubling that of his rivals.

Barack Obama was spending at close to $91 million in just two weeks, where John McCain was only spending a mere $22 million in a two week period.

Why do think he spent so much money during his election, while John McCain only spent a small amount?




------
My opinion is- of course, and everyone does it....

Did he buy the election........ is anyone not from this world for even thinking any president did not buy their election?

For the USA's entire presidential history other then George Washington's election, the person who wasted the most money on the campaign usually always won.

So if you believe that he did buy it, yes HE DID, just almost every other former president of the USA.

Statistics on how much money the winners used compared to the losers of the election show the one who wins did IN FACT PAY THE MOST in the election.

NOTE: I was hoping he would win as well, though another post may say I wanted John McCain to win.

Feel free to voice your opinion on this.

Thank you.

It's a political ad. It's meant to dishonor other politicians. int today's world you NEED to spend that insane amount of money, even to be recognized. Again, it's an ad, so it doesn't mean much to me.

That is true though, they do need to spend insane amounts of money to get recognized.

So the ad is linking to a survey site. It's a good idea though, putting something that controversial on an ad, that should generate a lot of hits.

I hope I didn't do anything against forum rules.... did I?

[compwhizii]

No you didn't.

Wouldn't he have also received more support and donations meaning he'd have more money to spend?

Yes you have.
You need to have a post in crossfire have more than a one line sentence otherwise it shall get deleted. It's just what's commonly accepted in this forum.

As for Obama buying his election, no he did not. McCain just isn't what's right for this country. Obama is.

Ow, I see what I did, I posted something and it was less than one line, I am sorry for that, you can delete the post, since I did not follow the rules, you can take the credits I earned from the post also since this was an extra credits (section of the forum).

McCain does have a different perspective on many things Obama has, that was a leading cause to him not getting elected. People say it is also Sarah Palins fault he did not win but I think if anything I would have voted for the Republicans if she was the one becoming president.

She may not know many things unlike her president nominee but what the president does is not entirely only the presidents fault, it has to do with congress accepting the Presidents ideas when they know they were wrong.

If McCain was more favored, he would have received more cash to spend on the donation so that would show why he did not win, less cash=less supporters, less supporters=the other guy winning the election.


NOTE: I wanted Obama to win also, but people in the area I live say he bought it, and here I am asking other people.

I do not like McCain at all. I'm glad Obama won, and no, He didn't "buy" his election.
