Here's my post. It's racial. So I guess that makes me post-racial.

That assumption became true shortly after his election and it has been steadily ratcheting up from simple race card to 24/7 race baiting ever since.
This election campaign will be about race at every opportunity. We saw it with Juan Williams lying about all the emails he gets during the Monday debate.
Race has been and will be the most important issue facing the European and American peoples. Racial issues reflect the invasion of Western Societies by the third world populations. So far the Westerner has not successfully resisted the demands of third world peoples for Western loot and the “right to govern” WEstern nations.

As long as Rev Al & Rev Jesse can enrich themselves by race-baiting, we don’t live in a completely post-racial society. These two rabble-rousers still pop up in the news frequently and are still busy shaking down corporations in the name of racial equality.
IMHO, unfairly or not, Barack Obama has set back race relations by at least 50 years. Many voters thought by voting for Obama, our Nation would once and for all erase the last stains from slavery and Jim Crow. Barack Obama, with the Media in his pocket, did nothing to counter such noble aspirations. Instead, the Obamessiah gave us a peek at the ugly and blatant racism of his mentor, Rev Wright.
We’ve still got a ways to go before we reach the Promised Land.
It all means what, exactly, is meant by “race” and “black”.
For example, when Nobel Prize winning poet Tony Morrison, who is African-American, can write an October 1988 New Yorker article titled “Clinton as the first black president”, then what is “black”? When the NAACP calls the black conservative Kenneth Gladney, “not black enough”, and “not a brother” then what is “black”? When Time magazine’s Jack White calls Supreme Court Justice Thomas, “the scariest of all the hobgoblins”, saying “Washington seems to be filled with white men who make black people uneasy”, than what is “black”? And when Obama, a man whose mother is Caucasian, can tell us in a widely read autobiography that in his youth he struggled with his racial identity before *deciding* to be black, what is “black”?
When Bill Maher, during a panel discussion on HBO complains that Obama’s policies are “half-assed” “because he’s only half black.” and that “if he was fully black, I’m telling you, he would be a better president.”, and that “there’s a white man in him holding him back”, than what is “black”?
“Black” in all these contexts, as well as Juan Williams’s complaint on Fox News that the extraordinarily lopsided expression of Missouri voter sentiment in August of 2010 rejecting ObamaCare (in one county by 92%) was really about race, is not about “race” at all. It is about ideology, socialist ideology.
With respect to BHO being black: it is not about the racial characteristics he was born with, it is about the ideology he adopted. It is not what percent black he is, it is about how thoroughly red he is.
And if that is the case, what is “post-racial”? Where socialist-black has finally been outed and the public rejects its socialist orientation? I sincerely hope so.

Jimmy Carter calling newt subtle racist, is part of this.
The race card is a political tool, that the left uses to engender fear.
The fact is that the Statists will use anything divisive to get the votes to stay in power. All down to the local level. The liberals see the people of the US as “groups” to be categorized, labeled and separated. And THAT is the difference, essential to their tactic to divide one from the other. The goal is dictatorship that will NOT distinguish race— everybody will come under the gun. Like Stalin vs. Ukrainian kulak so called “rich” peasants.
Stalin being a psycopathic russian georgian.
The Statists are very scared of black conservatives. That is where Herman Cain (whom they pilloried with the old shibboleth of black man with white woman— by the way Castro used that Cuba to scare off the landowners and industrialists out of the country, so it is a Marxist tool as well) can and will be a clear voice to the conservative blacks-and whites- this is all a ruse to lure their vote.
What is missing in the discussion is that racism means something very different from bigotry. A bigot might be a racist, or might not. The idea that a race is inferior because of their birth is racism. The term is used too loosely applied to bigotted language. There is racism and bigotry all over the world and it is definitely NOT just black vs. white. Hispanics are racists to other hispanic origin people (the term Hispanic is simply idiotic- Spaniards are Hispanics, so then what are Latinos? Are they Italians, cause Romans spoke latin and still do). All grist to the political mill is divisive crap.
And,it is scary stuff when mixed with a financial disaster deliberate wrecker of the economy, in charge. Keep in mind that Cloward Piven and Alinsky uses this strategy and tactics all the time. It’s how you do it. Nail in the coffin of the republic.
After the past 3 years I'm not so sure. I suspect we've lost a couple of decades at least.
Well, half of us are.
Democrats continue to be race obsessed.
Normal people were over it years ago.
I doubt we will ever be in a post-racial society. If anything, things will get a lot more divisive once Whites lose their majority status.
Is America post racial? Yes, we’ve had our obligatory black president; now it’s time to MOVE ON!
Maybe America is, but I’m not.
This marxist punk has me questioning whether EVERY black in a position of authority as little more than a quota boy???
What the **** does race have to do with the duties of the President??
What does race have to do with the problem that the FedGov is borrowing 40 cents out of every dollar it spends? Or that excessive regulations and uncertainty about the tax code are strangling job growth?
Race is just a magician’s prop — focusing the audience attention on the left hand while the real destructive work gets done by the hidden right hand.
