Dear Floridianed, None of my edits constitute vandalism. All I did was add link tags around his middle name, allude to the fact that a white person with an african-american parent is just as much white as black (when I said that not only was he the first afro-american nominee, he was also the 92nd caucasian nominee) and to say that his policy goal was to surrender Iraq to terrorists. That last statement can be presented to you with Socratic irony and, if you answer the progression of questions honestly, would show that his public statement to unconditionally remove every US troop from Iraq by early 2010 (his "16 months" policy plank) would lead to Iraq falling to a terroristic regime. Since Hussein Obama isn't so stupid as to not know this, it must be his intention rather than the result of a misguided and naive blunderer. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox.

- Dear Tnolley. Removing a well established (and) sourced sentence ("...Obama has emphasized withdrawing American troops from Iraq,..." with an un-sourced editorial POV ("Obama has emphasized surrendering Iraq to terrorists") indeed appear to constitute vandalism. Regarding your other two edits at the same time: You might have made them in "good faith" but you have to consider, that after making your last edit of three in a row it appears to other editors as an attempt to "white-wash" your last edit in question. As for your edit "(although, to be fair, he is also the 92nd caucasian)": You might not be aware of but his "question of race" was discussed comprehensively and you can find the result at Obama's talk page under FAQ in one of the "talk-boxes" at the top of the page. As for his middle name WP-linking: See above "...after making your last edit of three..." and furthermore it doesn't belong in the lead. Also we would need to "high-light" all main names of biographies.
- So please consider the template I placed on your talk page as an attempt of "constructive criticism" w/o the intend to offend you. Regards, --Floridianed (talk) 02:29, 21 July 2008 (UTC)
- PS: I'm not familiar with the meaning of "PLS K" and would be appreciated if you could put some "light" on this for me. Thanks, --Floridianed (talk) 02:29, 21 July 2008 (UTC)
Dear Floridianed, Look at Iraq now - Isis, etc. it happened exactly as I said and Obama knew it would. Tnolley (talk) 10:58, 19 May 2017 (UTC)

editRegarding this edit. The part about Trump taking credit is sourced in this section: 2017_Qatar_diplomatic_crisis#International_reactions. Could you please put it back?VR talk 14:15, 7 June 2017 (UTC)
VR:
editI do see what was being used as sources. But I still believe that the inclusion of that phrase has nothing to do with the crisis. Who cares if any one person tweeted about it? It has nothing to do with the crisis itself. I will not engage in an edit war over this - so feel free to revert it if you feel strongly about it :)
