That way they can keep blaming America.

Sometimes you need to elect an intelligent person with great ideas, and let the rest fall into place.

Is that how you pick your surgeon, accountant, or plumber?

The liberals think his color is reason enough to elect him; he has nothing else to offer.

Good grief! I’d like to think that the reason he should lose is because he’s totally unfit and not qualified to be POTUS.......I guess I was wrong. Lotta stupid people out there. :(

Sowell is way too much intellect for the American masses.

Hey Heilemann, I don’t like Obama because of his character and politics... not because he is black.... does this make me racist? Watch me give a damn about your opinion...

The presumptive Democrat party nominee is a charismatic black man who has the ability to generate campaign contributions at never before seen levels.

They are the only qualifications that I can see - if in fact they are qualifications.

As far as I’m concerned - the only reason they are running him is because he’s black. They won’t admit it but it sure looks that way to me.

Consequently - since they dissed the American people by putting a candidate on the ticket whose only qualification is race - I have no problem voting against him because of it.

"Could Racism keep Obama Out of the White House?"

Whatever it takes. The reasons don't really matter. People vote against candidates for all kind of reasons.

Re: “The liberals think his color is reason enough to elect him; he has nothing else to offer.”

Agree — he has nothing to offer but his (half) blackness. And the lib Geraldine Ferraro called it correctly when she said if he were not (half) black, he would never have been considered a candidate for POTUS. She got trashed by her own party for telling the obvious truth.

I predict that more white Republicans will vote for Obama than Black Democrats vote for McCain by numbers and percentage.

Why does Obama hate black people?

There was a paucity of black people named by Obama as being important.

America has never elected a black President.

America has never elected a communist President.

America will do the former before the latter and this is Obama’s fundamental problem.

Perhaps there needs to be terminology to distinguish “black” as a reference to skin color, “black” as a reference to real African culture, “black” as a reference to ghetto culture, and “black” as a reference to socialist ideology, and “black” as a reference to general rebellion against capitalism.

The real question is: if Obama wins, was it racism that got him in?

Racism?

Obama is an idiot.

It makes no difference that he is a black idiot.

Look at the jumped up crap he did in Kenya in the summer of 2007 campaigning for a bunch of Islamofascists in the Orange Party. Result: Intertribal genocide.

Stone cold liberal socialist neo-colonial black power idiot.

That's not racism.. He doesn't have what it takes for the presidency.

No, no. He’s just a typical, Black DemocRAT. They hate any Black that escapes the DemocRAT plantation and thinks for themselves. He probably would have disparaging things to say about Colin Powell and Condi Rice. Why? Because they are Republicans.

Never mind that they overcame racism and managed to be successful in this “racist” society. No, no. Their first great sin was not being DemocRATs when they did. Their second sin is that they are crying “racism” and playing the race card whenever things don’t go their way or whenever people criticize them and say TRULY racist things about them.
