One would have to be pretty stupid to not recognize racism when they see (or feel) it.

Obama is the Racist-In-Chief.
BINGO! Thanks Dale.

I think you are really naive about the world if you think it is impossible for someone to harbor some forms of racism against part of their own ancestral lineage. As a teacher, I have seen it in students often.

I am not speaking about President Obama, just that your argument is weak and lacks logic.

That wasn't an argument, it was a statement.

To those of you who claim to have proof that Obama is racist, I would really love to see these racists ads, videos, speeches, or debates that you all trumpet as proof that our president is racist. If you can produce a credible source of proof, which shouldn't be difficult if Obama has been so outwardly open about his disdain for us white folks, then I will concede. I have a hunch that you all just like to complain, however...

You need to do your homework on his wife and former pastor. I am not going to do it for you. Google will set you free.

I'm aware of his his connection to Jeremiah Wright. You're wrong. Anyone actually believing in this "Obama is a racist" drivel is either weak-minded or just plain bitter. This almost as silly as the birther crap.

By the standard being offered up in this thread both major parties will have a racist running for President.

Romney hires veteran black strategist for 2012 campaign | theGrio

In an interview with theGrio, Wall said her role would not be just outreach to blacks, but women and other groups, as well as shaping Romney’s overall communications strategy. She joined the campaign a few weeks ago and is likely to be a frequent pro-Romney voice on cable news shows.
And her appointment comes as the former Massachusetts governor is making moves to appeal to black and Latino voters, both strongly Democratic blocs. He gave a speech to a Latino business group Wednesday and then at a black charter school in West Philadelphia Thursday, facing a hostile crowd at the latter event.
