However they are not the brainwashing type. Sorry but their not. They are highly eduacted, own their own businessess, live in very exclusive areas, always believe in working and working hard, and doing what is right. They have their own minds, and won't be ignorant to the fact of voting for a person, just because of his color, sorry but they will not.
There are many factors they look at, someone being of the same color of themselves, does not happen to be one of them.
You must live in a very odd neighborhood. Because there is no precinct anywhere in the country where most "wealthy, well spoken" blacks voted for McCain.

Maybe they are telling you what you want to hear so you will go away?

Don't put words in my mouth please! your assuming who they voted for, i said they did not vote for Obama the first time. They may have not voted that year, inspite of all the hype of our first Black Preisdent.
And why thank you, yes i do live in a very beautiful area! where everyone loves each other for who we are.
And no i happen to live in a area, where everyone and everbody gets along, and we watch out for everyon's children, infact even celebrating the children on the Street birthday, with a block party. whether we know the children or not. But i do know black republicians bet me i don't, and i would win the bet.

But what you say is definitely not entirely true, because yes i do know a couple of black people who voted for McCain, i really do, not lying. They were Men. And sorry to burst that bubble, but the majority of black friends i have are registered republicians. Just the way it is, as far as i can tell, it is their right to be in the party of their choice, just as others on this forum are registered to the party of their choosing.
Does not make any one person right or wrong, because of what party they belong too, i know many people who feel that both party's are the two evils!

So what your not getting it either! thought you would. Your choice. As everyone has the choice to vote for the person they feel fit for the job. Or not to vote, based on feelings, that not one perosn can do the job, their right also.
Let me tell ya, you could never burst my bubble, don't worry about it!!
And i feel Obama, is not any of the things you think he is, and that is also my right, and nothing racist about my feelings.
Do we not all have a right to our own opinions.

There is nothing racist voting for the person of your choice, even if it is not what the majority says it should be.
Comes down to all that Hope n' Change, which was not delivered!
And because one does not vote for Obama, does not mean it is anything of a racist nature, stop spreading lies. It has to do with so much more then his color. Color is not the issue, stop saying it is. As Americans we have every right to vote for the person of our choice, and not voting for the person we feel, cannot and has not improved on things he said he would. We are no better off, keep on telling yourselves it is, some of us know better. No two people ever fit the same mold!
Agreed. I always scratch my head and wonder why a certain block of White Americans seem to think that everything we (Black Americans) do is raced based and monolithic. Contrary to popular belief, we don't all speak ebonics, wear baggy pants, like rap, violence and live in ghettos. Why is that so hard to understand

They don't want to understand that fact.

When certain people are raised to believe that they are superior by birthright, they do not want to believe any evidence to the contrary.They have a vested interest in maintaining their spot on the totem pole and any thing that challenges that is a "threat".

If you're not for gay marriage, because of biblical beliefs....then you must also be for a woman, who isn't a virgin, on her wedding night; to be stoned to death! If y'alls gonna follow y'alls "good" book....follow it to the "T" or just write yourselves off as hypocrites. Good day! p.s. this is for all skin hues

Unfortunately OP most likely they will fall victim to their own ad hoc stupidity.
