UPPER MARLBORO, Md. - A Prince George's Community College student says she was driven from class because of her political beliefs.
Gloria Alfonzo says she endured racial taunts and slurs because she supported John McCain's presidential campaign.
Her problems, she said, began with an assignment to write about the merits of Barack Obama. When she announced she differed with Obama, Alfonzo says her African-American classmates subjected her to an onslaught of racial hatred.
"I was frightened," she recalled. "It was horrible; it was extremely horrible. I was a little scared."
Alfonzo said all of her classmates -- except for herself and one other -- were black, as was the instructor, Ayanna Watson. She says the teacher demanded to know whether she is a Republican.
Alfonzo maintains her answer drove her fellow students into a racially-charged rage.
"They got up from their chairs they started pointing at me and, um, saying, 'You are a daughter of a,' you know, '[expletive deleted]' and '[expletive deleted] white girl,'" she said.
Chris Monroe was in the same class.
"I have never seen so much hate for one person," he recalled.

White people should avoid Prince George’s County. It is a Black racist slum.
Is Chris Monroe the other white person?
You could be right, if not in intention, then in result.
I’ve worried about this anyway simply because of the 50/50 split and “fights” over the Bush years. The divide is even and I fear that’s critical mass.
