I believe that Obama assuages “white-guilt” about slavery. Obama is half white and speaks well. He's not like Jesee or Rev Al. He's a black politician many whites feel comfortable voting for.

I'm not one of them.

“I believe that Obama assuages “white-guilt” about slavery.”

I think a lot of very shallow liberals love his “black preacher” routine - it makes them feel like they’re part of the “black experience” (i.e. they are judging him on the color of his skin as opposed to the content of his character).

Me neither!

I believe his appeal is all in his voice quality ~ 100%

He SOUNDS confident. (emphasis on CON)
He SOUNDS sexy
He SOUNDS too cool for school

But he offers nothing of substance. No wisdom, no experience.
Those who only hear his voice quality aren't listening to CONtent.
