Barack Obama said that Macedonia mustn't use the name "Macedonia" as name of the country. What a hell does he think!? Has he ever read something about Macedonian history? We are not Greeks, we are Macedonians!!!!!! Obviously his wish to win the elections is very big, so he can say anything he wants. Who cares, there are more Greek than Macedonian voters in US, that's why he had to say it. It's not important the fact that somebody is stealing our identity as a nation. Just votes, votes, votes, votes...

"By the way i don't understand why on the Greek border there is a sign "Welcome to Greece, Welcome to Macedonia"? Why don't u say Welcome to South Macedonia? Or your airports, schools, newspapers etc are called Macedonia and not Central or South Macedonia? U blackmail us to change our name to New, Upper or North Macedonia, so u will keep the copyright to Macedonia? Your ministry is called Macedonia and Tracia or something like that. I dont understand how do u love the name Macedonia now when 30 years ago it was forbidden even to speak the word Macedonia. I found every name in Greece that has Macedonia is not older than 30-40 years. Not speaking ancient history here, so dont start with that."

The sign signifies welcome to macedonia from our POV i.e. the ancient first original macedonia, not the later extended captured regions you have. But it is there as a countermeasure to your claims. Personally i would gladly take off the sign, once we agree on a name, or change it according to our agreement. Until then we will not let you monopolize the name.
The rest you said about the name are false. Makedonia, it is a greek word after all, has always been used by greeks, in politics and commerce, even before the foundation of the new greek state, as every other greek region, Sparta ,Corinth, Epirus etc.
Once again I am a Makedon, i think you are a makedonski. Dont deny my identity, and the right to self determination by biased and racist research over "inferior" genes from africa and asia, which is dismissed by all prominent geneticists. Nazi science!!! I do love Makedonia, and i want us to live together. I have cried for my dead, and i have remorse for yours. Welcome to the region, but i cant give you everything at the moment, accepting that you can use the word Makedonia in a geographical and a new ethnic context is a pretty good compromise for now. When you grow up, solve you racist issues inside, the ethnic hatriot to all your neighbors outside, and sort out your identity (by presenting some official consistent theory, and not this sci-fi I keep reading), and when we also do the same, we can both use the name with no restrictions. But what we propose may avert the tensions that seem to come in the future of the balkans.

A True Leader?

B. Hussein Obama Fact Sheet - Do you want this man as a leader?

• In his book, he admits to being a reformed drug abuser, having used alcohol, marijuana, and cocaine heavily during his teenage years to "push questions of who I was out of my mind". Hopefully he matured and completely ceased his addictions long ago and limits his drug use to nicotine these days (he is an avid smoker).
• He refuses to wear an American flag pin on his lapel, as has been tradition for all politicians since the 2001 terrorist attacks. He explains that he prefers not to show his patriotism that way.
• At a 2007 gathering of the Democratic presidential candidates, he was the only one who refused to place his hand over his heart to pay tribute to the American flag during the National Anthem.
• He belongs to a Chicago church that promotes an extremist separatist black agenda (Trinity Church, led by Reverend Jeremiah Wright, who honored anti-Semite Louis Farrakhan with a lifetime achievement award), and when this became public, he distanced himself from the church and its pastor. Why would he hide his religious association with Reverend Wright and his church?
• If you change one letter in his name, it contains the exact names of two of the most powerful figureheads of islamic terrorism. Not surprising, as his father is muslim – something from which he has attempted to distance himself. Being muslim, of course, does not make someone a terrorist, but given that the US is at war with militant muslims, you have to question why he is trying to bury his background rather than embracing it and openly discussing islam and its implications.

PS - At least he is open about his hatred of the US and his separatist black agenda: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N8QCkgg5Kjo and http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JmHtGQq-z_Y

This team has several hits under their belt and it's awesome that they are lending their talents to promote Obama.
And as far as the post below mine, I guess the other side got nothing of substance, so they are left with lies and slander.
