“You evidently didn’t see my second post where I corrected myself by saying “a black MARXIST president.”
But you are correct and I stand corrected. Are we clear?”
I don’t think it’s any better with the word Marxist on the end of black, but if that’s how you’d like your correction to stand then I know at least I am clear.
By the way... did you know that when you make a condescending statement like, “Are we clear” at the end of a post admitting you were incorrect it tends to negate any ownership of responsibility or intended humility that might have otherwise been expressed?
But you know what, you made me realize something. I don't need to apologize for my views on matters. Now if they are wrong I hope someone like yourself would bring it to my attention, but if I'm not wrong people will just have to deal with.
Let's take this matter for instance. Are the people of America ready for a black president? Perhaps when I said "No" I should have clarified my statement. I like to comment and go on to the next post; not spend a lot of time explaining myself.
Let's face it, this nation is not ready for a president that does not have the best interests of America at heart. O does not, we all here on FR see that. The people of this country elected a minority candidate without vetting him out first (thanks to the MSM) and now they discover that he is out to destroy us any way he can. His views are marxist in nature and he's too stuck on himself to notice it.
In my view, the election of any minority candidate in our present society is a bad idea. All the ones that are possibly electable come from the same societal background as O does. Black, mexican, and women that come from the Democratic political ideaology can be cast in the same mold as O. That's not being racist, bigoted, hateful, etc, that's just plain ole common truth. Unless the president candidate has the same value set that the originators of the USA had, they are no better than O. Now, are there blacks, hispanics, and women who share those views? Of course there are, Sarah Palin is a prime example, but where are the rest of them? People like JC Watts are trashed by the lame stream media the same way Palin was during last year'e election. The politics of character destruction chase away anyone who is a conservative who might actually be able to run for President and who could pull this nation out of the mess its in.
Plus you have to see that the minority candidate will do everything they can to see that people of their particular ethnic background is given more power and prestige, all at the expense of being fair. Look at what happened at the polls in Philadelphia. Blacks actually kept white people from voting. Treatment of people nationwide would, and is becoming, unequal and unbalanced because those of the same ethnic background of the president feel empowered and emboldened to do as they wish, and most of the time unrightfully so and at the expense of someone else.
So, back to our original premise, is America ready for a black, or hispanic, or even a woman, president? The way I see it, if their election divides America the way O has been doing and if they hold to his type of ethical (or his case unethical) background and beliefs, then I say unequivacology "No!" The only thing that will result is the very destruction of the America we both hold dear. Look at what's happening now.
But if their election helps heal America, and I mean actually heal it, and if they hold to the truths that made this country great in the first place, God, rights for all people, the pursuit of life, happiness, morality, basically everything that's in our Constitution, then I'd vote for them too.
