You should be ashamed of yourself, no wonder you won't own up to voting for him.

93% of blacks voted for Obama who they will defend no matter what. If Obama represents how blacks think and who they are...

Watching Cons spit out racists comments and posting threads attacking Blacks and Brown people is not manufactured, it is a Fact. Deny away all you wish, but having a man of color in the Oval Office has simple made it too difficult for some on the right to hide their inner selves from the world, and that is a good thing, now everyone knows who they really are and what sort of mindset and ignorance prevails in the GOP these days, and you guys wonder why few people of color will support the GOP.

You are fooling no one, I doubt you ever had a shread of respect for blacks, just admit it and move on.

Translation - anyone who criticizes the president is doing so because they don't like the color of his skin, not because he is a Democrat and they disagree with his policies.

Specific examples?

Or do you have none because you are simply regurgitating talking points that you heard on MSLSD?

Under the guise of victimhood based policies such as Affirmitive Action, Black History Month, Race identifications on job applications, Race based scholar ship funds, liberal agenda driven Media Outlets, and Welfare Programs targeting specific groups, the socialist keeps racism alive by keeping people divided. By pointing out a person's skin color and then trying to place them into a specific box separated from people of other skin color they are essentially encouraging not diversity but an indoctrination of a label, a label based solely upon one's skin color and not their actions or individual character.

Why do liberals do this? Because they need to racism to win. They need something to "Fight Against," and by creating it they are given the power they crave. The liberal has falsely created racial issues where there never were any to begin with. You can see this in something as simple as Voter ID, every single Western Nation on the planet has Voter ID. It's just common sense. But they have turned it into a race issue for votes and falsely scared uneducated voters into believing it by lying to them. The same thing happens with Illegal Immigration, School Choice, Gun Rights, and a whole list of other issues. Liberals thrive off of pitting their fellow Americans against one another, telling groups they are victims being oppressed by another group and creates the division they need to control people. Their biggest fear would be if tomorrow they woke up and the world became color blind, nobody caring or noticing another person's skin color, the very world that Civil Rights Leaders such as MLK Jr. were fighting for.

Bottom Line: Liberals need racism to stay in power. They create it, they feed off it, they need it to control people and to use it as a way to silence those they disagree with by playing "the race card." This is in complete opposite to Conservatives who believe that we should build a color blind society, one where race doesn't even exist or matter.
First of all I don't know which "liberals" you are referring to that are spearheading this massive movement to keep racism alive. I am liberal and am against affirmative action and I know others are as well.

As far as why it exists, maybe you could ask people who are, in fact, racist. How do I know this? When I lived on the west coast of FL, I was surrounded by it. When Obama was elected, rednecks painted epithets on their pickup truck windows and guess what--liberals did not encourage them to do this. Women in the nail salon made racist comments. Some of the towns are so physically segregated between white and black that you would swear it was Mississippi in the 60s. Perhaps you don't experience this on the US west coast if that is actually where you live. I can tell you to take a trip through the south and see that this is a deep cultural aspect and it is not liberals who are holding these views, believe me.

The 2008 election rallies held by Palin often turned nasty and racist in parts of FL. Yes--it was on the local and national news. There are people who hate that the president is black just like there are people still fighting the Civil War, and this is the fact--it is not a "race card." Did you miss some of those tea party rallies after the election where racist signs were held and racist epithets yelled? They were not organized by liberals. Did you miss some of the disgusting things going around the internet and that still do? Those are not liberals. Of course, blaming the entire state of deep-seated racism on a conspiracy by liberals to promote racism is a convenient way of avoiding the hard questions or looking at the reality of certain ugly Americans and ugly parts of America. I do not understand why extremist conservatives insist on looking at the world as all black and white (no pun intended) rather than acknowledge the fact that these issues are deep-seated, rooted in American history and very complex.

Isn't it odd that England does not have anything close to the level of racism against blacks as the US? Coincidence--or is it because of the history of slavery and the Civil War here? If they never looked at blacks as personal possessions, maybe they aren't as angry about them having equal rights (just my theory).

Your theory all wrapped in a bow explaining an entire social issue having centuries of historical action and thought leading up to this point in time is extremely simplistic and reeks of blame and paranoia. Sorry--not buying any of it.

The only reality concerning this issue is that Democrats use the president's skin color as a shield against criticism of him and their failed left wing policies.

It is the only reason why they want Hillary to run for president, so that if she is elected they can deflect criticism of her by screaming REPUBLICANS HATE WOMEN!!!
