When Cain supporters say things like, honkies for Herman, or crackers for cain, you know its about race. I was always repulsed by the “old white guys for obama” bumperskickers, that I still see from time to time, and I am just as repulsed by honkies for herman etc, for the same reason......race politics...ugh.
It is disgusting and I like to think that as conservatives we are better than that. And I do believe we are.
So you believe that black people who supported McCain were also racist? Seems to me quite the opposite.
I support Herman because he’s the best man for the job. If I were hiring for a position, I’d take Herman before any of the others.
That’s why I support him for the presidency. Sure, he’s Black, and I’m white, but that’s irrelevant to it.
Anyways, ‘old white guys’ is not the same as Honkeys. I’m *making fun* of that sticker! And the label!

I completely agree. I hate seeing the Honkies/Crackers for Cain posted here.
It would not be acceptable to have n*****s for Cain or n*****s for (whatever white guy).
I don’t like black people calling each other n*****s and I don’t like white people calling themselves honkie and cracker.
It is degrading. I complained to CNN, when D.L. Hughley was calling white people crackers on his show. Just as a host saying n*****s is unacceptable.
I have a sense of humor but I don’t see those words as friendly or funny, they are degrading and they are words that keep a defining line between whites and blacks. They don’t point to what we share in common.
I don’t like Cain’s 9-9-9 plan as I am firmly against a national sales tax. I don’t trust congress, they would LOVE that and I don’t think the states would like it, either.
I don’t like crayola politics.Certainly Cain stands on his own and we don’t need to define him by his or our color.
