Obama tops American University poll

Barack Obama was the leading presidential candidate in a survey by American University. When asked who they would vote for if the presidential election was held today, 54 percent of respondents chose Obama, with McCain coming in second at 19 percent.

However, a similar poll by the Oregon Commentator found Ron Paul leading by 100 percent. Although Paul has been popular with the college crowd, this is a surprising surge and could cause trouble for current Republican front-runner McCain. The results also indicate that 100 percent of university students are registered Independents, functional alcoholics and named Ossie Bladine.

    A couple lives ago.

  2. Jake says:

    Whitney: are you a 40-year-old guy?

  3. Whitney says:

    Ooooh. Touchy. Lighten up.

  4. I'm back... says:

    Whitney sucks. No exerience. No respectable accomplishments- except for, well…um…nothing really. Nevermind.

    Vote for Obama, because at least we know who he is.

    After all, “Whitney” could be a 40 year old guy. How do we know?

  5. Whitney says:

    Obama sucks. No experience. No respectable accomplishments–except finding a good speech writer and acting coach.

    Vote Whitney for President

    Ossie this seems to confirm my fears. I received this in the email today:

    To other senators, I want to ask for your support tommorrow to trim the fat from the pfc budget. Its not appropriate to give away the money only because of the administration being willing to take money away from the pfc budget. In other words, why did the pfc dip into the career center money? Only because of the racism card being played and no one wanting to say no to that. But this is not a good reason to give away more money and so I support cutting it down tommorrow on the floor without the pfc. Only because the money was given vfsa doesn’t mean that I think we should take it from there. Do you know can we take it from any group tommorrow night? Please email the senate listserve to share your thought. I am curious as of what you think. So far with my talks to other senators there is only 5 people interested but if there is a few more we could do it.

    I am new to this. What does this mean? Is this real? Can someone help!

  8. Sean Jin says:

    I didn’t feel like it was a safe space for me, as a minority.

    Oh, I’m sorry, I thought I was in the MCC.

  9. Timothy says:

    Ossie – Yes, you should assist them with removing the stipends from their budet…yess….excellent.

  10. Ossie says:

    Oh yea, I forgot. Hey Sean, I don’t believe I saw you last night at the Take Back the Campus. Your apathy disgusts me.

  11. Sean says:

    Senate is voting on PFC’s budget on Wednesday.

  12. Ossie says:

    I’m not sure about your situation, you should e-mail us and give us the details and we’ll try to be of some assistance. ocomment@uoregon.edu

  13. asuo program leader says:

Why was i told that i need to defend my budget and our stipend position again this Wednsday? i already did a budget hearing one time last month so i don’t get why they want to cut us again because i heard our budget was safe. do you guys have a suggestion on how to not get cut on wednesday?

    As a concerned alum, I recommend working at a gas station when you graduate so you can fill your empty beer bottles with old 87 and sell it. A tall boy should fetch a $0.50 and a half gallon should be $2 or more by June.

    If only they made cars that ran on racism, XXX Black Ice, and subway. At least the magazine does…

  15. Sean says:

    And registered Republicans and named Sean Jin.,
