As a white McCain supporter, even I have to acknowledge that there are two different americas. Have you ever been to the slums? Two americas because thats how they want it, but there are two americas..

Ugh, I see that the Obama victory is bringing racism even more out into the open than it was...

Well,

I guess you just have to deal with it.

Well 93% of all blacks voted for Obama ... that's fine and for those that have used their race as excuse for their failures ... it's over.

So time to step up to the plate and pull your weight for those that have used their color as an crutch you no long have a reason to be bitter. Game over, welcome to the wonderful world of the tax payer say bye bye to the world of the tax taker.

Wow that is ignorant.
I've worked for many bosses and supervisors and guess what THEY didn't hire me. Someone above them did.
What I'm trying to say just because you have a black president doesn't mean that systematic racism is over.
Remember there were millions of whites in polls who admitted they would have a problem voting for any black person.
Many of these people are like 123cop. They have deep issues with blacks still regardless of what color the president is.
What makes you think a racist wouldn't hire a black? Many racists employ blacks in jobs they can't get others to do.
Would they hire them to do lawn work or clean their house? Sure. Would they sit down and have a meal with them? Heck no.
Racists don't all wear white sheets. Some just make stupid threads on CD.

I am white and want all Americans to succeed. Some blacks are successsful and some whites are failures, but the overall statistics show that black america as a whole is failing in almost every statistical category.

The rest of America has heard every excuse in the book why.. bad cops, bad drug laws, white people keeping blacks down.

WAKE UP.. the water has been poured. Time to get up. No more excuses. We now have a black president. If Obama with his shady background and muslim sounding name can get elected to the presidency, anything can happen. No more excuses.

So turn down the rap music. Black men, it's time to call your baby mama's and make a play date with your kids. Time to adjust the car seat so you can see out the window. Time to pull up the baggy pants and tighten those belts. It's time to join the rest of America as law abiding hard working citizens.

For black americans who haven't used excuses and went out and succeeded, good for you and this is your chance to pick up the rest of Black America and tell them to wake the heck up.

We all want black america to succeed. After all, we are all americans. Black America, you got your black president. Now all eyes are on you and there are no more excuses.
I agree 100%.
