You're another genius. Yes, by virtue of the fact that Obama is black and Hilary is a woman, it must mean that Dem voters are primarily interested in making history. Again, you are a genius. No data, just your feelings.

I don't know how to answer your last question, it's stupidity exists on so many levels...Many argue she is not the best choice...How are we defining brain damage?...Was Ronnie the best choice when even his own kid accepts that Ronnie was in the throes of dementia by term two?...Your assumption that the "half-black" and "woman" could not have been the best choices...Your inability to grasp that your feelings are not evidence of anything...

As far as I can tell, he got elected by running against McCain/Palin and Romney/Ryan.

Why did you vote for him, I mean besides the fact that he shares your skin color? What about his past had you so impressed that you thought he was fully and supremely qualified to hold the most powerful office humankind ever endeavored to create?

Here, I'll answer it for you. Nothing.

you didn't listen to me. obama is a half black. fact. another fact is that I don't have "feelings." who is "ronnie?" ron paul? we are defining brain damage by an old chick getting a concussion. you know, a brain injury. the same injury that ends NFL careers when players are in their 20's. what say you?

there is a lot of truth to that. the republicans had horrific candidates. I should have said that he campaigned on being black.

Well, gosh. That democrat, Geraldine Ferraro just stole that 'first' from those old tea baggers. About 40 years late with your snark, friend. Besides, 'it' does not demonstrate anything. Poor logic extension, Besides, English is, or at least was a more precise language.

I have often said that any white male that votes for a democrat is a self loather, and this is further proof of why. it seems like their goal is to nominate anyone but a white male. what's up with that? I mean, is there no white male democrat that is better suited to run for the white house than a brain damaged ex first lady? don't get me started on warren. are there any "up and comers" that are white men in the democrat party, or are democrats finally phasing them out of their cult?
Why should it matter whom the Democrats nominate? All you all have to do is counter with a really good White guy.

...then you all would be making history.

incorrect. been there and done that. white guys have been president before. as have black guys, like warren harding. however, since harding made history by becoming the first black president in US history, there seems to be a push to make a chick a president. so again, is a chick with brain damage the best you got?

You mean your boy can beat Hilary? You all dont have one good white guy you can nominate that can beat her?

That is what counter means...not past, now.
That is the topic making history..not looking to the past.

I don't know who "my boy" is. I do know that the phrase "your boy" is racist though.
