You because obviously you seem to think that colored people are statistically less capable of producing an equally qualified candidate

I say the same about women, it is time a woman got elected president. Am I a sexist now?

Lest we forget

This is how Dr Martin Luther King was treated.

That would be a false comparison.

Those of us who disagree with Obama's politics/policies/broken promises/Marxist affilations are judging him on the content of his character; just as Dr. King taught.

Why is skin color an issue?

Either someone does a good job or he/she does not. If someone at you local bank messes up your account, do you find out what color his/her wrapper is before you complain?

It truly saddens me that some people think that the reason a majority of Americans dissaprove of the President is because of his race. Its statements like these that make you realize we are nowhere near a post-racial country.

Yet, when we finally elect a man of compassion, sensitivity, intellect and foresight you can't bear it because of his name or his skin color.

We didn't elect just any black man, we were blessed with Barack Obama!
Harvard educated, eloquent speaker, community activist, author and nobel prize winner.

Get over it already. The whining is boring and repetitive.

Originally from Hawaii, Obama is a graduate of Columbia University and Harvard Law School, where he was the president of the Harvard Law Review. He was a community organizer in Chicago before earning his law degree. He worked as a civil rights attorney in Chicago and taught constitutional law at the University of Chicago Law School from 1992 to 2004.

The longer you continue to believe that people's objections are based upon race, the less chance you have of ever understanding the problem.
