Those numbers are not right. Obama is a millionaire. McCain has more wealth than Obama but make no mistake Obama is worth over 7 figures.

and one of the richest men in the world also understood America. It doesn't matter how much money you have (Bill Gates).You can still be wealthy and a decent human...see below


Walton remained dedicated to keeping Wal-Mart involved in local activities by allowing charities to hold bake sales on his property as well as providing scholarships to high school graduates from local schools.

As a result of his accomplishments, Sam Walton eventually received the Presidential Medal of Freedom from George H. W. Bush in 1992.

Not only that, but us intelligent people(yu nowe eeleetists), want elite people as our leaders, because they are smarter and more capable!!! Our top priorities for picking a leader are intelligence and competence. You guys like moose hunting hockey moms, with a 9th grade understanding of politics. Doesn't reflect very well on you!!
Did you not read your own definition? "belief or attitude." Not socioeconomic position.

That depends on the source of your information I suppose:

Quote:
Sen.Barack Obama(D-Ill.)

Net worth: $1-$2.5 million*

Details: In January 2005, Obama agreed to a $1.9 million advance from Random House for two non-ficton books and a children's book, of which $200,000 is being donated to charity. One of those books -- "The Audacity of Hope" -- has been a huge best seller since being released in October. He owns a home worth at least $1.6 million in Chicago.

*His wealth is likely to have increased significantly because of the huge success of "The Audacity of Hope"

The Washington Post
His exact amount of wealth isn't the point and my point still stands.

Why does this info show something different?

http://www.boston.com/news/politics/..._releases.html

http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2008/...n4372737.shtml

Just hours before tonight's big Pennsylvania debate, Barack Obama kept his pledge to release his income tax return for 2007.

It shows that he and his wife Michelle earned more than in previous years -- more than $4.2 million, with about $261,000 from salaries and the rest from book royalties.

I don't think elitism has as much to do with wealth as it does with a wealthy individual's attitude towards others not as fortunate.

Well then it seems like the American people have failed in those regards for about the last 100 years.
