Can that not be said by whites, as well?

I'm with you. President Obama? In this country? Lord please help us all. And Limaro, unfortunately, it CAN get a lot worse. Remember 9/11? Try living that day over and over again. We, as Americans (not whites, blacks, Legal hispanics), need to be very careful as to whom we elect as President.

Yeah... his black separatist church gave Farrakhan an award.. calling him "admirable"
I also wonder if Obama talked about how he got his house in Chicago for $300,000 below market value through Tony Rezko.. who was arrested yesterday on corruption charges. Obama got this sweet realestate deal through Rezko after Rezko was openly under federal investigation.. The same day Obama closes on his HOuse.. Rezko buys the property next door.. and Rezko was one of Obama's biggest campaign contributors.. but that's corrupt Chicago politics for you..
But according to the mainstream elite media and the Obama campaign.. to scrutinize and criticize Obama's relationship with this known crook make you a racist.. Wow that really sounds like turning the page to me...when you are criticized.. simply throw out the race card.. I hope America wakes up from this nonsense.

Uh, yes, it can be said of whites too....because the blacks IN MACON will vote anyone into office that is black (that was proven in Ellis` second term). When Ellis or a black council member got in trouble (much of the time, it was legal trouble) and ALWAYS the excuse was "its because I`m black!!" So yes, I`m sure if I was white and had the unfortunate life of living in Macon, I would vote for ANYONE white just to keep idiots who constantly use the race card out of office.

For the city to be 60% black and for Jack Ellis to win the elections he won, that consisted of more whites voting in Macon than black, it shows alot about the city. Also for you to state that Blacks in Macon will vote for anyone black, suprising Black Ponder only won about 27% & Black Ficklin only won 13% in the past Macon Democratic Mayoral Primaries, and for a Great White Man Robert Reichert to win more than 60%, shows and voting was just about even black/white throughout the city.

That doesnt surprise me that he got elected. He was smart enough to brown nose the black vote. And, of course, its no surprise that he backs Obama for president.

...I don't think it matters who gets into office, this country is turning into a Socialist, 'I want my mommy'' country. I don't think he's as bad as the Hildabeast or Edwards but all I hear is how they want to take more of my money and give it to others and then force me to pay, and use a sub-par health care system.

I am a Republican and my vote will go for McCain...IF I were forced to vote Democrat, I think I would rather have seen Edwards in there than Clinton or Obama

Oh Please..
O'bama..What a joke. They finally find a semi articulate African American candidate and they want him as President. What's next? The Rainbow Coalition Senate? Just what we need, a Muslim President.
