The pastor continues: "We put 'In God We Trust' on our money, but citizens here in the U.S. don't really trust in God. "When it comes to being qualified, they look at skin color."

Because nothing is more important than the color of one's skin. /s

I really wish these people would get over themselves.

And the thing that could really throw off some people is the Constitutional clause which holds that if the President-elect dies or becomes incapacitated before the inauguration, the Presidency goes not to the President-elect's VP, but to the Presidential runner-up.

Even though this is clearly in the U.S. Constitution, you just know there'd be a media-generated "crisis" over it.

"(Prejudice) is alive in 2008," he loudly preaches. "I fear for (Obama's) life."

Prejudice is only alive because people like him won't let it go. I never see the kind of racism from white leaders that I see from people like him and Sharpton, and Jackson.

This is so inflammatory. They fear for his life why? Because he's black? Or because he might be president? Clearly the meaning is connected to the first part of his statement. They fear for his life because of prejudice. And who do they think is going to going to try to take him out?

Don't answer....

I fear for America if Obambi is elected. He is a hard-core marxist, and that does not bode well for America. He is wholly unqualified for the office (hell, he was well known for voting “Present” on tough issues while in the Illinois Assembly) and has zero experience in running anything. His is the cult of personality. That’s it and nothing more. The man is an empty suit.

And yet, he has a better chance of being elected president than any other candidate running from either party. He;d be as inept as Jimmy Carter, but without the family baggage.

Yep. Vote for Hillary, they will kill Obama. How low of tactics can they stoop too. The Clinton's know how to play the race card.
