Obama, said Ellerbee, got 65% of the vote, to Romney’s 35%. The children in Ellerbee’s informal poll have correctly predicted the winner in five of the past six presidential elections.

Who would children in the United States of America vote for in the upcoming presidential election, if they had the chance to vote? Most of them would vote for President Barack Obama to stay in the White House for another four years as US President.
Unfortunately, adults are the ones to cast the votes on 6 November 2012. In different mock elections, Obama was their favourite. Can the children ‘persuade’ their parents to vote for Obama? Mitt Romney has put up a very good fight, and worked tirelessly but the majority of children’s votes goes to Obama.
Obama won this year’s vote with 51 percent of the students’ support. Republican Mitt Romney received 45 percent of the vote. The children cast 4 percent of their vote for other candidates.

Critics dislike the fact that Obama has not fulfilled all his promises. It is a lesson to politicians worldwide. Do not promise to do too many things. Neither is Obama expected to make extra promises at the moment.
Some psychics are divided on the winner of the upcoming presidential election, but The Atlantic says, ‘In a survey of 172 psychics at Psychic Source, 71.5 percent saw Obama’. A female psychic foretells that Obama 'could be assassinated’ if he wins. Some psychics expect Obama to win unexpectedly on Election Day. A male psychic says women will decide who wins the election. Do you think it’s all Mumbo Jumbo?
My Opera is not like most blog sites. As long as you don’t break rules and regulations, you are unlikely to have your blog revoked. ‘Big brother Opera’ does not tolerate nonsense! We 'lost' a friend whose blog was ‘extinguished’ years ago. His ‘offence’ was beyond imagination, but we did miss his artistic blog for a while.
Opera gives so much independence that most Opera friends forget to get in touch with one another for years. When they pass on, you may not know unless you read of their death on blogs, forums, and online magazines.
It is easy to assume that they lost or forgot their passwords, and had no access to their blogs when they are dead. If you want to stop blogging, kindly publish your last blog post and say goodbye. It may be unfair to pay a tribute to just one person when others died before him. We did not deliberately forget to send condolence messages, but were unaware for years.
We humbly sympathize with the families of our late Opera friends especially Dapxin (Dapo Osewa). May God give them the fortitude to bear the loss of their loved ones? Nobody is above death.:rip:
