I can find many more examples. But my point isn't to accuse people of racism but to point out that people might honestly have a different point of view from President Obama's without it having anything to do with the color of his skin.
Well yeah, but if you've been on this forum for long, you'll notice that most of the stuff these cons hate Obama for are things that every other president has always done. Makes it really hard for us to give them the benefit of the doubt.

Sort of like hating Bush for high fuel prices but saying nothing when they are high under Obama?
Explain. His point: White Democrats in Chicago are trying to consolidate their vote by having one White candidate. Black Democrats should do the same.
That is not at all what Davis said:

He's not saying that whites consolidated the white vote, so now blacks have to follow suit or lose. That's nowhere in his statements. He's clearly saying that whites should rally behind a white leader, and blacks behind a black, and Hispanics behind a Hispanic.
Be honest now, if a Republican said that, you would be going thru the ceiling like an RPG. It is unequivocal racism.

or Obama continuing the wars, attempting unilaterally to start a war with Syria, the expansion of the Patriot Act, killing American citizens with out a trial, sending drones to kill children, and on and on. The hypocrisy of the left is stunning.

Then in that case they are being hypocritical, but not necessarily racist. I'm really not trying to argue. Just offer an opinion.
I dunno. I wasn't here then. But are you saying lefties are racist against whites?
Some are but I certainly do not think blanket statements make for good arguments.
