You really reveal something about yourself in saying that. Show more loyalty to America.
Who, pray tell, are the "lowest-rung" members of society?

African-Americans? They are the ones who voted 94% for Obama.

LOL, you crack me up. Love the irony of seeing these two statements almost next to each other!

Let's see... Obama was voted for by the majority of Americans. And you are now claiming 94% of those voters represent "the lowest-rung members of society". The logical conclusion: You just said the majority of Americans are the lowest-rung members of society.

Nice loyalty to America you're showing there!

Now let us take the name "Hussein." It is from the Semitic word hasan, meaning "good" or "handsome."
So his name means "Good blessing."

The next president is a good blessing for America.

Comments of such bigotry and utter ignorance place you on the ground, below the lowest rung

The man will be sworn in using his complete name on a Christian Bible as suits his religion. Now just what is your problem?

President-elect Barack Obama says he will try to "reboot America's image" among the world's Muslims and will follow tradition by using his entire name — Barack Hussein Obama — in his swearing-in ceremony

Obama hopes to reboot US image among Muslims - Yahoo! News (http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20081210/ap_on_go_pr_wh/obama_interview - broken link)
Who cares? Like this is even an issue.
