I don't see a black man. I see a socialist. I don't care if he's black, white, brown or purple, I am not voting for him. It has nothing to do with his color. I'd vote for Condi Rice. I will never vote for Obama.
OBAMA is inciting race violence!!! People will hate each other because of their race!!!!
Now, I know why there is SO MUCH hatred during this election.
Then why are the only people talking violently at Mc Cain's rallies. Whenever I watch a Mc Cain rally I hear hate speech from the crowd and John Mc Cain just stands there and listens. I saw Obama give a speech and the crowd began to boo McCain and Obama shut them down.
But your very long post is exactly why I posted the question. Btw, how are Black children suppose to get an education when the money that is suppose to go to education is being used to fight an unwinnable war?
(Or in the case of LAUSD being used to educate non-English speaking illegal immigrants?)
I know that in the past and even still today, White people have not treated Black people well and have made it as difficult as possible for us to succeed.
Just curious...how are black people so mistreated?
Also do you hold black culture, i.e. Rap, 'gangsta', ghetto, 'keepin' it real', materialism, etc., at all responsible for the so-called 'difficulty for black people to succeed'???

Sorry, but you are wrong. A woman at a McCain rally stated that Obama was a "scary Muslim", he shut her down and said " No ma'am, no ma'am, he is a good American man" Check utube, I bet you'll find it.

And did you see the followup interview with that crackpot woman?
She was sharing her "information" about Obama with everyone she knew.
"It's all bad." "I went to Kinko's...I sent 400 letters."
People who are scared and ignorant only believe what they want to believe.
Sure, McCain did the right thing and shut her down at that moment. But she and others are unconvinced.
If we have Obama as president, there might be some *real* consciousness-raising going on.

Granted the vast majority of people, who don't want Obama to be POTUS, are not making his race factor in the decision. However, I would safely say that maybe up to 10% of white folks are and the % is higher, the older those folks are.
Palin knows this, that's why she threw out crap like "Senator Obama does not see America the same way you and I do.", while speaking to audiences that are 95 to 99% white.
McCain does not even do that.

Yes, I do. I hate the hip-hop culture with a blind purple passion. But who owns the distribution companies and radio stations that play it and make it popular in the mainstream? Yes we have to take responsibility for this garbage and I campaign long and hard against it.
I know that in the past and even still today, White people have not treated Black people well and have made it as difficult as possible for us to succeed. But we have perserved and a good number of us have achieved great success. And now a Black man is on the verge of accomplishing the greatest level of success in this country: becoming President of the USA.
Why does this scare White people so much? Do you think that once Barack Obamam becomes President we'll treat you the way you have treated us? That's not the plan. There is NO Black vs. White plan.There is NO get back at Whitey plan. The only plan Obama has is to clean-up the Bush mess and get this country back on track.
Close your eyes and don't see a Black man: If a White man were saying these things, would you vote for him?
Well, I am white, and I don't see the things that you apparently "see". If there are any "white people" that are opposing Obama, it's not because of his skin color, that's for sure. it has to do with issues that go beyond the color of his skin. Some of these "white people" would never vote for a Democrat - period - regardless of skin color. I am going to be voting for Obama/Biden, by the way, because flat-out, bush and Co., have ruined our country and I see Obama better equipped to clean up the mess than McCain. Secondly, I would NEVER vote for McCain because he's hooked up with Palin, and to me, she is the scariest woman in America right now. I have no desire to have a religious FANATIC running our country.

I seriously do not think Palin was referring to RACE when she said he doesn't see America the same way we do. It never would have occurred to me that she meant because of his race.
