Hundreds of Bush supporters who donated at least $200 to his 2004 campaign have now donated to Obama’s presidential campaign according to a McClatchy computer analysis. Among the donors are Julie Nixon Eisenhower, granddaughter of the late Republican president Dwight Eisenhower. Also reported on the list was Connie Ballmer, wife of Microsoft Chief Executive Officer Steve Ballmer; Ritchie Scaife, the estranged wife of Mr. Conservative Richard Mellon Scaife. Here are some other interesting names from the other side that have not ruled out supporting Obama. Former Secretary of State Colin Powell, Fox News owner, Rupert Murdoch, even the President’s daughter Jenna Bush allowed that she has not made up her mind and appear open to voting for Obama. When is Chelsea going to announce?

Publisher's Statement
U.S.A. ThisWeek is a national weekly news magazine, the print version will soon be launched that will provide national weekly news-media representation for African Americans and fill a long standing news-media void. It’s our{mosimage} position that, until African Americans have a national voice that presents a perspective representing our interests and concerns on a weekly basis, we are relegated to less than full participation in the society. With the establishment of U.S.A ThisWeek, no longer will the area of news be dominated by the mainstream news media nor will the proliferation of traditional pundits, politicians and news readers have a monopoly on the opinions and perspectives being posited to the public.
In addition, with the new threat to our existence of international terrorism which places us all at risk, we can no longer remain quiescent and allow information that would address that threat to go unreported. Right now we’re in a Russian roulette posture based on the assessment of the current administration that “they only have to be right once; we have to be right all the time.”
