Obama Wins!
...in the number of threads that have made it to GD. I took a casual survey of the headers*, took a guess on the bias of the information of the post based on the header and made the following observations.**

Articles that slanted positive in favor of Obama: 14
Articles that slanted negative for Obama: 13


Articles that slanted positive in favor of Hillary: 5
Articles that slanted negative for Hillary: 7

Most were opinion and diatribe, but some were substantive. Substantative articles ran about three for Obama and two for Hillary.

* I took the survey until I got bored with the exercise.

** Yeah, I'll do just about anything to avoid work.

4. Mahatma Gandhi Wins!
In my study of who had more positive threads between Mahatma Gandhi and Charles Manson, Ghandi won hands down!
