Biden: Voters "having a difficult time" electing first African American president
abcnews.com ^ | 10/19/08 | Matthew Jaffe

Posted on 10/19/2008 11:02:06 AM PDT by 1curiousmind

ABC News' Matthew Jaffe Reports: As Election Day looms just over two weeks away, Sen. Joe Biden, D-Del., said Saturday that with Republicans firing "vicious" and "dangerous" attacks at Sen. Barack Obama, D-Ill., voters are "having a difficult time" opting for the man who would become the nation's first African American president.

"Undecided people are having a difficult time just culturally making the change, making the move for the first African American president in the history of the United States of America," the Democratic vice-presidential nominee said at a San Francisco fundraiser Saturday evening. "So we need to respond. We need to respond at the moment, immediately, not wait, not hang around, not assume any of this won't stick."

"You see these vicious attacks on Barack's character," Biden told supporters. "I mean, this is dangerous stuff these guys are doing. This stuff is on the edge. It's on the edge. You know, there's some folks out there in the community nationwide that aren't as stable as others. It's a very small minority. But having these rallies where people are showing up saying, you know, the things they're saying - I don't even want to repeat them -- it's not a healthy thing."

Absolutely disgusting. Biden should be ashamed of himself for insinuating that the only reason people are having trouble “falling in line” behind the COMMIE Obama is because of the color of his skin. It makes me SICK.

If I went on I would say some very un-lady-like things and I would probably get booted off FR.

Well, BS is most definitely an African- American. It’s apparently still an open issue whether BS truly qualifies under the US constitution.

This is on par with Murtha calling his constituents Racists the other day.

Also Biden should be the last one talking about race to anyone in light of his ridiculous remarks about Obama earlier in the year.

Well, yeah, Joe. I certainly am.

Your running mate’s a freakin’ leftist and a towering egomaniac. And so’s his wife. And his associates? Let’s not even go there. (”Guilty as hell. Free as a bird.” “No, no, no, God DAMN America!”) And oh, by the way, it’s not as if your running mate’s that much more experienced than our candidate. Our VP candidate, I mean. Our presidential candidate beats your running mate as brutally as the NVA once beat him.

But what really worries me about your running mate is that he had his pick of the best and the brightest pols in the Democratic Party (stop laughing, people, they do have a few), and...well, Joe...he picked you.

Black’s not a problem. Bone stupid is another matter entirely.

This makes me SICK!
I didn’t vote for Gore.
I didn’t vote for Kerry.
I’m not voting for Obama.
Does that make me racist?

You forgot the impeached one X - 42. I didn’t vote for any of those either. No more votes for any (d) from me.

He's not black or African American. His father was a black man from Kenyan. He's of mixed heritage, and like the Kenyan his father was, Obama’s supporters are trying to Mau Mau us into supporting Obama and his socialism. Screw ‘em. We're for freedom, and his racist claptrap is not going to bend us.

Yeah, and then the riots start as the “useful idiots” who believed Obama was SO FAR ahead in the polls see the votes come in the OPPOSITE of what they expect. Despite the FRAUD that has been perpetrated ALREADY to the tune of hundreds of thousands of registrations by DEMOCRATS and Obama’s Organizations and Supporters, they will claim that “yet again” WE have “stolen” an election from them.

Obama is the one inciting racial strife. HE is the one dividing this country with his Communist agenda! Just like Odinga and his inciting of “Tribal Animosity”. I will NEVER believe that Obama didn’t encourage the strife and genocide in Kenya - not after this. He is using the SAME M.O. to cause the collapse of this country. Whether he is elected or NOT, I fear this country will NEVER be the same.

HEY BARACK - THIS IS NOT AFRICA! You will NOT succeed in your plan to destroy our way of life. We patriots (REPUBLICANS & REAL DEMOCRATS) will stand up against your kind - your deceiving, racist, hate-mongering, communist agitator, “revolutionary” terrorist buddies and all your “New Black Panther Party” supporters, and the SDS, and the MDS, and your Islamo-Fascist relatives, friends, mentors, and benefactors.

TRUTH, and FREEDOM will ALWAYS prevail. No matter what you do to us, you will NEVER crush our spirit. We seek TRUE equality for EVERY citizen in this country. Something you choose to turn your back on by engaging in this spiteful rhetoric.

WE ARE NOT RACISTS!

We are proud Americans who do NOT want to see our beloved country turned into a 3rd world Communist hell! How DARE they accuse us of these things, and how DARE they incite violence and hatred between the American people.

You want to see REAL ANGER, Biden? Then keep attacking us for something that has NOTHING to do with our thoughts, opinions, and beliefs.

We Republicans are the party of Lincoln, Douglass, and MLK, Jr. - it is YOUR party that pushed the Jim Crow laws, and fought against de-segregation, and against the Civil Rights Amendment!

It is YOU - Obama and Biden - who are dividing our nation. It is YOU who will be blamed when the chickens of your deceit come home to roost, but it is WE - the American People - who will suffer for your brazen attempt to gain political advantage by race-baiting, and race-hustling an ENTIRE HALF of the United States Citizenry!

OK, I’d better stop before I throw my computer out the window. These people make me FURIOUS!

May God strike down these vile evil people! May He cause them to stumble, and be caught in their own snares, and may He open their deceived followers’ eyes and ears to the truth!

The undecided are wary of a man who has been hob-knobbing around with terrorists, corrupt financiers, and racists for 20 years. And of one who is the most militant pro-abortion Presidnetial candidate in history.

...and Biden and Obama both know it.

But help is on the way.

the Dems seem to forget that obama is the racist.

no one sits in a racist building for 20 years and does not agree with what is being spoken

Michelle is the other racist

so before they start their racist crap they need to remember the only person here who is racist is actually obama

a vote for obama is a vote for racism against whites

"Undecided people are having a difficult time just culturally making the change, making the move for the first African American president in the history of the United States of America,"

The cultural change they're resisting has nothing to do with his ethnic background, Biden. They're struggling with this idea of a political leader:

“Let me spell it out for them-If democrats would stop putting baby killing, tax hiking, capitalist killing socialists on the top of the ticket, I would vote for them!”

No, you won’t. LOL.

The Republican party have not put baby-killing, tax-hiking, and capitalist-killing candidates on their presidential ballot ever since I can remember, and I don’t think they ever will. If they do, that will be the end of the Republican Party.

The Democrat P{arty has become, according to a Vatican official, the ‘Party of Death.’ If the Democrats put somebody up who has different viewpoints about those things you mentioned, I ask why he (or she) is still member of the Democrat Party. Makes you wonder as a voter.

Typical race-baiting leftist BS. Joe the plumber told Osama HUSSEIN Obama what the problem was and instead of learning from it, Obama sent your goons in the DNC media to go after him.

In 2000, I voted in the primary for Alan Keyes, a black conservative because I wasn't all that comfortable with GWB. It's not about the skin color. It's about principles and trust, neither of which are demonstrated by any DUmocrat.

Obama, Biden, and those who agree with them are more like the Antebellum DUmocrats stuck in the 1850's who'd rather make slaves of every Joe Six-pack and Joe-the-Plumber in America.

No, Joe what I’m having trouble with is electing the first COMMUNIST president - regardless of his color.
