To the left, if you don't vote for Herman Cain, are you a racist? (president, Obama)

Absolutely false. And you know it.

We know what Robert Byrd would say, because many years before he died he explicitly rejected the racism of his past, and the past of his party.

Lucky for all the real racists that the Republican Party came around to espouse their racist positions, though.

How much is the fair share of someone earning minimum wage?

The Poor Pay More. Now if a middle class person pays N dollars for a specific set of purchases and a poor person pays (1.2 * N) dollars for the same purchases, why should the poor person pay 20% more tax than the middle class person?

Herman Cain is more black than obama.

Why won't you support him?

Because he wants to tax the hell out of me. D'OH!

It's an uncomfortable question for the left.

If you're a white liberal and there's a black man who is more black than obama and you don't support him, are you a racist?

Depends. A white liberal non-racist class warrior would certainly prefer Obama to Cain.

Then you would be vulnerable to being called a classist.

You know, the one the extremes use for their "I have black friends" as in the ones who "Act" black and all street like.

Currently I give Cain and Romney 5:2 odds of getting the nomination, with Perry at 5:1.

Much lower than the 15% that is taken out of the minimum wage earners checks now.

Let me put it this way. If Cain makes it and congress passes this, I'll kiss him!
9% federal income tax!, you bet cha.

EXCELLENT question! no, because they are huge hypocrites. They also call their opponents what they, themselves, are.
