I think they'll all move to Maine and found another country again.
After reading a few of your posts, I've come to realize that you have some strong prejudices.
You must have some really serious issues. What brainwashed you like this ??

Sweet sarcasm just zooms right over your head eh? I have issues bacause of this? I think they'll all move to Maine and found another country again.
I think the OP has more with his race baiting that you took hook, line and sinker.
And BTW, just because the emoticons are free doesn't mean you have to use them all everytime you post .
First one must define issue. I take issue with racist IDIOTS that think I owe them. I might give them the time of day, I might even give them a dime to call someone who GAF, I might even tell them to FOD if they try and get in my face as Dunbo suggested. He is one STUPID mofo.
We've lost an entire generation of people in our inner cities, and in our poor rural areas. Not just black kids - all kids. Nothing is going to change overnight, it will take literally several generations, just as it took for a man of mixed race (remember folks - he's only 50% "black") to be in a position where he could run for national office at the level Obama is operating. Colin Powell is the only other "African-American" (a term I find repulsive...) who could pull it off today.
Therefore - Obama isn't going to help "black America" directly in the short term - but it absolutely would give a lot of little black kids some hope that they can rise above their situation. It'll take 20-30-40 yrs before those kids get into positions where they can start changing things, but overall - it's gotta be a huge step in the right direction.
Also - having a "brown" man as our leader will send a completely different message to the rest of the world. We need that right now as well.
I am a white conservative - but I am voting for Obama this fall. Just like the US needed the shift to Reagan in '80.... and Clinton in '92... the pendulum has come back and the time is right for a progressive in the executive branch. Our government functions best with a moderate-leaning executive and a conservative-leaning congress. Any time congress mirrors the executive branch you lose the checks and balances and wind up with the Iraq fiasco and financial market meltdown we're experiencing now. Checks and balances - not unbridled ideology - that's what works in the USA.
Yeah I think you do. For you to come online and make the pretty offensive comments that you've made, I wonder if you are like that in reality.
I'm a compassionate conservative who gives once cycled lemonade to the poor. I also respond in kind but you're probably not bright enough to realize that.
