That was pretty good. I am tired of being called a racist because I am not voting for obama. Why is it racist?
Maybe we should take a look at how obama feels about race from his book, "Dreams from my Father".

"Certain white's could be excluded from the general category of our distrust".

"I learned to slip back and forth between my black and white worlds. One of those thricks I had learned: People were satisftied so long as you were courteous and smiled and made not sudden moves. They were more satisfied; they were relieved-"such a pleasant surprise to find a well-mannered young black man who didn't seem angry all the time."

"To avoind being mistaken for a sellout, I chose my friends carefully. The more politically active students. The foreighn students. The chicanos. Th Marxist professors and structural feminists.

"Tim was not a conscious brother. Tim wore argyle sweaters and pressed jeans and talked like Beaver Cleaver. He planned to major in business. His white girlfriend was probably waiting for hin in his room, listening to country music. "Tim's a trip, ain't he?", I said, shaking my head. "He should change his name from Tim to Tom.".

Describing his boss when he was acommunity organizer: "There was something about him that made me wary. A little too sure of himself, maybe. And white".

Describing how he felt about what he read about Malcolm X: "Malcolm's discovery toward the end of life, that some whites might live beside him as brother's in Islam, seemed to offer some hope of eventual reconcilliation."

These are just a few. Pick your favorite.

Sounds like he just played to what ever people he was around at the time. 99% of everyone will adjust to their surroundings in the same way. If you don't you are an outcast or unique.
