The front page of The Washington Post carried a story Tuesday on black liberals demanding all blacks stand with President Obama -- just because he's black.
Let's not even deal with the facts right now. Lets deal with just our blackness and pride and loyalty, [radio host Tom] Joyner wrote on his BlackAmericaWeb.com blog. We have the chance to re-elect the first African-American president, and thats what we ought to be doing. And Im not afraid or ashamed to say that as black people, we should do it because hes a black man.
Following their logic, they should all rally behind Cain because he’s blacker.

Think about it...
...Would a real black man choose Joe Biden to be Vice President?
Yep, nothing racist about this at all. Move along. Nothing to see here.

I actually thought this was John’s semi-satire (courtesy ping, John). Truth is stranger (and uglier) than fiction.
So does that mean all whites should rally in unity around Santorum, Perry, Romney, etc., because they are white?
When your tribal self-identification is more important than your Americanism, you need to find another country in which to reside.
Imagine a radio host saying we should ignore everything else and just vote for the white candidate.
I can’t imagine the furor.
they are scared...they know Herman Cain is right when he says he can take 30% of that vote
Vote skin color? What about the content of their character?
There have got to be Black Americans who find that message deeply insulting...I just wonder how many there are?
And Im not afraid or ashamed to say that as white people, we should do it because hes a white man.
But libs would see that as racist and every media outlet would run the story 24/7 until election day.
They spit on that.
Listen, folks, Tom Joyner like all the Black racists are in utter panic over the Herman Cain quest to become the Republican POTUS nominee!!! The Black, Democrat, Liberal, Racist ilk are terrified that American Blacks in large numbers will leave the Economic, Opportunity, Slave Plantation created and sustained by POTUS Obama, the Democrat Party, the CBC, the NAACP, etc. And......they will!!! End of story!!! End of Liberal, Democrat, Black Racist Slavery.
Reid says Obama is better because he's light-skinned and only has a negro dialect when "he wants to have one".
Dems thinks the light-skinned black version is better. Cain doesn't qualify.
I think Cain will get a lot more than 30% of the black vote. They are totally disappointed in Obama.
The mother doesn't appear to be black. How is he?
Yeah!! Too hell with the country, who cares that we’re going bankrupt, who gives a rat’s rear end that we’re losing our freedom, so what if the kids aren’t getting an education, so what if we have death panels,no matter that the administration is top heavy with liars and thieves,commies/socialists,no jobs etc. Vote for Obama because he’s black. SHEER INSANITY!!!
Who have you been talking to?
What in Hell’s Bells are these people talking about?
Do they not realize that blacks are the only race in America that gives 90% of its vote to ONE political party, decade after decade?
When an ENTIRE RACE gives almost its ENTIRE VOTE to ONE political party — thus demonstrating almost ZERO DIVERSITY of political thought — that’s a problem.
That’s not normal. Or healthy. And, more importantly, that result is simply NOT POSSIBLE if people are thinking for themselves, educating themselves on the issues, and reaching their own conclusions.
Ths is exactly what Herman Cain was talking about when he said many blacks are “brainwashed.” Or subject to fearmongering. How else do you explain this? NO race “thinks” in lockstep like this naturally.
Blacks in America will not truly be free as individuals until they countenance political diversity among blacks. So long as they, as these people in the article have done, seek to put social pressure on an ENTIRE RACE TO THINK AND ACT LIKE ROBOTS, what can be said?
Fortunately, more and more people are waking up to the fact that they are free to think for themselves, if they’ll just realize they can walk away from the fearmongers and locksteppers.
