You are right, Tancredo is an American citizen. But then so are all the people who voted for Obama and put him in the white house. Our will is just as valid as yours. We want him to stay and finish the job of saving the country from a bunch or right wing, fascist, bigoted, aholes who would turn the clock back to 1952. Get used to it, Pappy

Try walking through Detroit and telling a black man to go back to Africa. You can use that line of logic to explain yourself while he kicks your ass from here to Sunday.

Tom Tancredo To Tea Party Rally: "Send Obama Back To Kenya"
Its not racist if that specific black man actually is from Africa, and is not loyal to the United States.

Of course, it's Racist. People have been telling black people the same thing for decades. What's so stupid about it is... most black people never even been to Africa. How can you go back to someplace you never where?

It's sheer ignorance and stupidity. And of course, they hate that he is president. I can only imagine what they call him in private.

If it was intended along the lines of slaves having been brought over from Africa, then it would fall under the racist category.
Ditto....It definitely doesn't come across well......although, the article reads that he said:

Quote:
"If his wife says Kenya is his homeland, why don't we just send him back?"
That sounds more to me like the comparison you made to Palin and Alaska rather than being about racism (although he may be....I don't know him). What he said is not the same as telling as black man to go back to Africa (that's flat out ignorant and racist)....you can turn what he said into that but, it's not what he said.
