One positive about Obama’s election: the professional race pimps are now out of work.
“Why do I have to be listed as African-American? Why can’t I just be American?”
not when 95% vote the same way
The McCain campaign could have produced pictures of BO in bed with a male child and he still would have won the election!
The article doesn’t tell the truth. The Obama camp continually defined him as black, which in and of itself is untrue as he is by or multi-racial. They continually framed objections to his policies as ‘racist’ and took things that were anything but racist and twisted them to sound as if they were. McCain/Palin against redistribution of wealth...racist. In the end, we see clearly that the racists in this country are a small minority (this is reality, not what the left wants to portray), and they come from every conceivable race.
I agree - no more barriers - no more affirmative action!
**Donald E. Robinson had a thought: “Why do I have to be listed as African-American? Why can’t I just be American?”**
Because the LIBERALS Won’t LET YOU ...
We “Republicans” have been trying to get people to understand that, every since MLK said those words “Judged by the Content of their Character”
Welcome to AMERICA, Mr. Robinson
They segregate themselves. They love to designate themselves as “African American.”
Not really. If the Messiah isn't "black enough" (i.e. transferred enough wealth to his brothers and sisters, and/or reestablished welfare & affirmative action as entitlements), or if he is denied reelection (no matter what shape the country's in come 2012), we'll be back to the old black vs white "struggle".

We gotta stick it to THE MAN!
Oh, wait a minute, I am the man.
So what I’m saying is, I’m gonna stick it to myself???????
Now any condemnation of obama will be treated as a personal slap to millions who feel entitled and who hate America and whites. Nothing good to come of his campaign, in which cries of racism were tossed hither and yon. This will continue till the end of his reign.
The only color I care about is the COMMUNIST RED which I keep seeing...
He thinks he is following Michelle Obama’s lead.
I’m almost more angry at Obama voters for what they did here with ballot initiatives than voting for a leftist. We had a sales tax proposal on the ballot. Those always lost by a surprisingly close margin. With the new Obama voters, the damn thing passed. My theory was that by the time the Obamagasm voters got to that one on the ballot, they just said yes without reading it.
I never agreed with the "African American" designation in the first place. I always felt that you should only have allegiance to the USA, and everything it stood for. You are either an American, or an African. You can't be both. And I think there are few others that feel the same way, African Marxists like Rev. Wight, and the Usurper, Barack Obama for example.
Maybe there will be one silver lining with Obama - liberal blacks will drop the chip and join the rest of society. As the saying goes, you can’t clap with one hand.
blacks voted him in only about race....
and enough small brained, or brain dead whites voted him in simply because they fell for the "give the black man a chance" crapola and "change".
what they had to ignore to vote for him:..terrorist ties, corruption ties,black "liberation" hate, goodbye 401k, goodbye radio talk show, goodbye gun rights, hello abortion on demand...hello socialist policies....
no....this was all about race....nothing about content or character.
This change means that maybe Kings vision of not being judged by the color of our skin but on the content of our character might start to be a valid part of politically correctness. Affirmative action and government demographics in general are contrary to this philosophy. This means that funding for schools based on racial demographics (No Child Left Behind) will have to change.
There is a local controversy where I live regarding the bi-racial demographic category. The form talks about primary race and secondary race. I have yet to receive an effective explanation as to how one can be considered dominant when there are two parents and 23 chromosomes from each go into the mix.
LIke I said, my right big toe is Cherokee, so how can I be a Euro American??? When affirmative action is over, I will believe that people will stop looking at race at least to blacks and whites. But there will still be diehards who will want reparations and punish all euro Americans for tacky behavior the Brits, French and Spanish did hundreds of years ago. And then you have La Raza who can’t tell the difference between lawful immigration and illegal aliens and wants to blur the lines and melt Mexico (Azteca or whatever it is called in their minds went up through Canada) and the USA together. And South of the border, black people do not fare as well (except perhaps Brazil). Asians have blended in very well though. One thing the USA had going for it until the illegal aliens collasped the country was that we were all American and not Balkanized. I don’t know if it can be reversed or not to just plain old American.
I always answer — Human and sometimes just answer American
