I remember this delightful elderly white woman who, after Barack Obama won the Democratic nomination, looked into the television camera and told America that she would never vote for him because “he’d only take care of the blacks.” Now that Obama has been elected, I’m picking up on self-pity, worry, paranoia, resentment, and victimhood among some white Americans, especially thin-skinned white males.
These folks need to chill out...

I don't dislike 0bama because of the color of his skin but for the content of his communist character.
I love the way some people have to racialize everything. Most of the anti-Obama whites I know oppose him because he’s a lying, corrupt leftist. Color is irrelevant.
I don't give a flying damn what color or racial background our President came from - all that counts is what leadership - or lack of it we get from him.
People who focus on stupid things like this waste everyone's time.
Here we go...if you do not agree with our country’s first Marxist president...you are a racist....(eye roll). When are people going to understand that his skin color is not the problem?
HE IS A MARXIST THAT HAS DREAMS OF A FASCIST AMERICA!

The fact that Americans just elected Barack Obama president says more about our capacity to knock down walls than our tendency to erect new ones.
To go one step further, the only reason many Americans voted for McCain was because of Palin, a woman, which is another sign of our willingness to knock down barriers.
Obama isn’t nearly as black as he is red.
Black president, red fears.
This is what I say when this riciculous theory is put out to me: If Obama was a white Jew, who grew up next door to me, I’d hate him EXACTLY THE SAME.
Yeah - That would be a great ticket!
And I'm picking up on hubris, hate, denial, condescension and revenge among some brown hyphenated-Americans, especially thick-headed brown metrosexuals. I could call that a Mexican standoff, but I'm not that thin-skinned.

This is simply a play on white guilt. Essentially, we (whites) are racist for not supporting him without question.
Unfortunately, this has proven very effective in the past and can usually work with a good chunk of elected Republicans and Republican business leaders.
Expect a lot more of it.
It’s not about race...it’s about color. He’s red.
The lib wants every one to believe this...
When the issue is really this...
IIRC We did not particularly like the Clinton regime either, White or Jimmuh Hamas Carter, white.
