Were all blacks who opposed George W Bush racist as well?

“Were all blacks who opposed George W Bush racist as well?”
////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

I had a conversation in the gym this past week with a black man who says he DID NOT vote for Obama because he considered his resume much too thin. He supports abortion, he supports reparations but he thought Obama was totally wrong to say that the police acted stupidly in the Gates affair and he says Obama should not have been calling people liars as he was doing just before Joe Wilson called Obama a liar.
This man told me that even though he didn’t vote for Obama he believes that Obama loves this country and asked if I agreed. I politely replied that no I don’t and that is my considered opinion based on study and I mentioned the twenty years of sitting in Rev. Wright’s church and asked how Obama could listen to a preacher who hates America if he himself loves America. Then he asked me if that opinion had anything to do with Obama being black! I said no it does not it has to do with what I believe and what Obama believes and I would probably come down harder on him if he were white, then I asked him if his low opinion of George W. Bush had anything to do with his being white! He said no it didn’t. I then told him that the way that question sounded to him was the same way the question about being black sounded to me. He seemed to understand exactly what I meant. Then I told him that as far as I am concerned Obama is not a black man anyway. A light seemed to come on in his eyes and he said, “Well, you know that IS true, his mother was as white as you are”. “Yes”, I replied,”And by some reports his claimed father was mainly Arab so I am not even sure if he is more than one eighth black”.
I don’t put up with this attitude that any white man who disagrees with Obama is automatically a racist. I am on the offensive now, I don’t play defense. I made it plain that I am ready to vote for Thomas Sowell or Walter Williams for president anytime I get the chance but I will not support a Marxist, communist, socialist, fascist, whatever you want to call it president simply because his skin tone is darker than average.
