You forgot to include Michelles admitted hatred for America.

There will be equality in the world when people stop posting with brand names of a person. Black president or just "a president" !!

White president or black president or half and half. Nope. All I hear is "black" president.....and he ain't even black !!

Oh, ok I misunderstood your #'s...and yes I'll agree...those #'s need to be reduced all around.

Hopefully things will change, if Obama does win the history of the win will hopefully inspire all to do better.

I am proud to be an American. What a great nation. I just wish Dr. King, Dr. Sullivan (my mentor) and others who gave so much, could be here today to see this. How thankful I am that I am here to see it.

I agree, Dr King would be a proud man looking at Obama & give our next president his blessing

I wonder if people were saying the same thing when an Irish Catholic won the nomination way back when? I know in my family it was a very big deal, especially to my grandparents who had endured a lot of racism because of their heritage. I would imagine that African American's might feel the same way right now, and I think they have a right to enjoy that moment.

And how do you call that racism? Im offering the idea of never ever mentioning color, race, creed, religion....etc. He is a man. A horrible one but he is human being. All of you are calling him black....and he ain't.

I lived in Cali huh? I guess that means something to you because it means nothing to the rest of us. Where is Cali anyway? What does that even have to do with the love you convey to your Messiah? Your new reborn Jesus Christ?

Everybody's a racist outside of the land of fruits and nuts? Yeah, those
latino's and blacks just LOVE the hell out of each other, don't they? Ask naive fools like Reginald Denny about the loveeeeeeeee. Seems you're kinda all shook up!
