Taken one at a time, they are not an issue. But, when you start connecting the dots and viewing all these things as a whole----it IS an issue for many people.
When you pair the above with his socialist leanings and tax hikes to pay for his entitlement programs, there is a problem.
Does it ever occur that the people who rely on earned income might in fact be ok with the idea of safety nets when they see year after year of jobs moving away? Not everyone can own a small business and sell fruit baskets, or scrapbook papers, or specialty steel products. Some people actually have skills that are based in manufacturing, and as the global economy takes those jobs away, perhaps there needs to be insurance against the total devastation of families and towns who did all that was asked of them to no avail. Did it ever occur that perhaps people value community over profit at some basic human emotional level and would rather that their neighbor be helped through a rough patch rather than forced to migrate for jobs? I am voting for the one person who might be able to restore that sense of community and pride in America after the last years of greed and deconstruction.
Please give me one incident where Michelle was racist. Just one. I keep hearing people call her racist and yet, they can not provide one time where she exhibited racism.

Can you enlighten us who that is, because I don't think they are on any tickets.

Connecting the dots? Dont you mean painting a picture that distorts reality?

A college thesis, is at best, an exercise in writing style and a way to get your degree. They are often molded by professors and have absolutely nothing to do with your own opinions. I have a full research paper on bird imagery throughout Shakespearian plays because it was a sure way to get an A from that particular professor, and another on how the writings of Nostradameus can be found in world literature (because I liked the song "Nostradameus" ). I would not hire a person based on their college thesis, nor would I base my choice of president on the fact that the spouse of a candidate wrote a college thesis that I did not agree with.

She is a proud and documented Separationist! Google her on the subject. She has said she believes in a black over white world. This is racist to me.
Michelle was black first and a student second. When have you ever been judged by your skin color instead of your qualifications? I'm sure there were plenty of incidents that influenced her thesis. I hate it when people that have never experienced racism try to tell people that have had to deal with it, how they should feel. How can anyone tell her how she should have felt back then? Women are allowed to hold on to animosity that they perceive is stemmed from sexism, but people should let racism go? Hillary's supporters go on and on about how she has been treated by the media, but Obama's supporters are not allowed to bring up anything when people make blatant racist remarks? Give me a break. Were you a black student at Princeton? Ever experienced racism? Please tell me how any of you would feel walking around Princeton knowing that the only reason you were there is because they needed another black kid, instead of the fact that you were more intelligent than your peers. Oh wait, the majority of you complaining aren't black so you wouldn't know anything about that.
