Disagreeing with Obama does not make one a racist. Disagreeing with him out of hand for no reason other than his not being of the same racial background as you are may well make you a racist.

Too bad you cant like Obama (as a person) and his family but disagree with his policies.
I respect your right to disagree with the Pres (LOL...my hands are going numb from typing this so often, but I gotta say it)...and once again, I'll also say that you are NOT a racist, or 'Tom', or 'sellout', or 'Oreo', or whatever silly names other black folk (and others) choose to throw at you...

Don't buy into that nonsense, and stand firm on your beliefs...you DEFINITELY won't get any flack from me

How is it "impossible" to like someone but disagree with their policies? What's "impossible" about that?

+1 stick with your beliefs and don't worry what others think. No where does it say all blacks have to think alike.

I don't care anymore to be called a racist since I know I'm not a racist and it says more about the people saying it...it shows they can't win with normal discussions but have to put a label on a person they disagree with..., but for black people now to be called racists aswell, seems to make their cause to fight racism in the previous years, look all done for nothing if the word is misused by stupid brainless people.
your the one who brings up racism. i mean here you go starting a topic about the whole racism thing here and yet you claim your not racist...

Here's a quote from this article below in the link. Are you smart enough to understand what it says?

The Widening Racial Scoring Gap on the SAT College Admissions Test


Quote:
Despite the small overall improvement of black SAT scores over the past 17 years, the gap between black and white scores has actually increased. In 1988 the average combined score for whites of 1036 was 189 points higher than the average score for blacks. In 2005 the gap between the average white score and the average black score had grown to 204 points. Not only are African-American scores on the SAT far below the scores of whites and Asian Americans, but they also trail the scores of every other major ethnic group in the United States including students of Puerto Rican and Mexican backgrounds. In fact, American Indian and Alaska Native students on average score more than 104 points higher than the average score of black students. On average, Asian American students score 227 points, or 19 percent higher, higher than African Americans.

Now, there are many other web sites that will confirm the same. So you liberals do what you always do when you can't refute the facts--you call Endzone names. Do any of you smart black guys or white liberals want to comment on the information posted in the link? Or do you just want to call me names?
