It's true! In America blacks are more racist towards whites than whites are towards blacks. And at the end they are the ones that complain about racism. This is pure hypocrisy.

News flash fer ya, pretty soon you'll be one of his people too and guess what, he won't treat you any better or worse than anyone else.
Yes.
Two days ago at my daycare, a black teacher brought a white 6 year old up and asked him to tell what he'd told her, which was :
"Her hands smell funny.
All black people smell funny."
It's good to have some open dialogue.
There is still a lot of ignorance and suspicion going on. Inject religious values into it, and it becomes even more inflammatory.
This lady blows my mind, but she is typical of many people around where I live.

"I can't imagine a President being named Obama"

They are also racist in their own race. Black skinned against light skinned and the malotto too. Their reason for voting (not all but many) is just to prove a point and that's all.

Yes, and plenty of people are voting McCain strictly because he's the safe old white guy--they could not care less about his policies.
Many people (especially of the female gender) were disappointed to see Hillary Clinton's bid for the Presidency upended, because they wanted to vote for the first woman POTUS.
The sooner we get over this stuff, the sooner we can evolve a bit. Perhaps then we'll quit agonizing over differences and categories and look into content of character.

The same people who say America is a racist country if it does not elect Obama, are the same people who do not see anything wrong with predominantly black countries like Haiti, Nigeria, Jamaica, The Congo, Uganda, etc never electing a white president in their history. Talk about typical racist double standards by liberals.

Ever seen a white Haitian? No white people in most of those countries....The Dominican Republic is 85% black or mixed but has had several white (or near-white) dictators, including Joaquin Balaguer, who was an actual pro-Nazi racist. And Kenya does have several white Members of Parliament, as does Zimbabwe. And Jamaica has had a white president recently. His name was Edward Seaga. Born in Boston to white Jamaican parents.

I know most posters on this thread are trolls anyway......

no browns are the most racist!!!!!!!!!

and how the hell is erma a mod? a gardening mod maybe?

what kind of silly gneralization is that to make about blacks and "molattos"? or how thye vote?

alot of generalizations on this thread. this is not a GREAT DEBATE at all.

i think that certain people who are finished and thru with all this talk about racism are just madthat people keep pointing out how far we have to go to become an egalitarian country that does not see people and within 2 seconds has already judged their character.

people have such gross misconceptions about others that they would rather hold on to those than admit their is a problem. they say that the horse is dead and been beaten to a pulp. but people still have silly ideas like ...

looking at a mans face to find ARAB traits. as if that were a bad thing.

this thread shows that people are still very ignorant and its not isolated to our town, city, county, state, country.

racism and prejudice is a global issue. the US is still dealing with generations and generations of imbalance.
sorry guys, we are in for the long haul.
