Affirmative Action Election Handicap for Obama
Personal | June 23rd 2011 | kimoajax

Posted on 06/23/2011 7:20:14 PM PDT by kimoajax

Given Obama is our first Black President, which says so much about the fairness of the American people, I would like to start a petition drive that would spot President Obama a number of points in the upcoming 2012 election.

In other words, as with many other positions and conditions in our society, President Obama deserves a handicap to make things "fair."

My only question is: "How much of a handicap does everyone think is fair? 5 points, 2 points...how much?

KEYWORDS: barackmuslim; election; handicap; obama
My thought is he needs to be spotted 6 points.

I give him +9 or 10. +20 if he gets illegals. +72 if he gets the election cancelled. ;>

One point each for obama, soetoro, dunham, soebarkah, bounel, and a half point for being half black.

To paraphrase King Leonidas, “Give to him nothing, take from him everything!”

How about this - one point for each of the 57 States in the United States of America?

Maybe in an equation of fairness we spot the president the same number of points one gets if they are tall, male, good-looking, rich and white and come from Texas.

An affirmative action bake sale is a campus protest event used by student groups to illustrate criticism of affirmative action policies, especially as they relate to college and graduate school admissions. According to one bake sale student leader, the goal of the technique is to “bring the issue of affirmative action down to everyday terms.”

The bake sales offer to sell cookies at different prices depending on the customer’s race and sex, imitating the racial and sexual preference practices of affirmative action. One idea of such bake sales is to demonstrate analogies between price discrimination and affirmative action. A typical pricing structure charges $1.00 for White and Asian males, $.75 for White and Asian females, $.50 for Latino, Black, and Native American males and $.25 for Latino, Black, and Native American females. The bake sales’ hosts do not support this kind of preferential treatment; rather, they argue that this preferential pricing is analogous to the preferential treatment created by affirmative action policies.

He is not our first black president!!!!!

Herman Cain, Corey Booker or maybe Alan West might become our first.

But a WHITE raised biracial with NO West African slave blood is not black.

He is either mixed race, more white than black or a zebra

And when you call him black he gets to play the race card.

He’s got the media, the entire media, that’s about a 20 point bump any way you slice it.

10 points, and a massive campaign to really get the blacks to get out to vote early on Wednesday Nov 7, 2012.
