Unlike liberals, I don’t look at Obama’s skin color first.
It is beginning to look that way.
I thin the answer is yes, and fours years of abject failure will follow.
Conservatives like me will be blamed for decades.
“hope and change”
sounds real good...but what kind of hope and change are we talking about? Could you be a little more specific? Are you just another run of the mill politician pandering for votes?
Hope and change for socialism, I do not want!
Yes socialism....take from the capitalists ...and make every a ward of the state.
blah blah blah. yes we’re ready for a black president. or a female president, or even a black female pres.
a couple years ago condi prolly could’ve taken it, probably still could if she wanted to.
powell could’ve taken it in 2000.
i don’t think obama has much of a chance tho.
Put Tom Sowell up there and watch!!
Is a black guy running?
EXACTLY! I am having "discussions" with Facebook kids about Obama....more people here should get themselves a Facebook account and visit Facebook's SUPPORT OBAMA section. They really are a bunch of MUSH HEADS....whom I've been trying to explain to that Obama (any Democrat, almost) just means SOCIALISM!!!! And, will cost them their freedom and livlihoods.
With McCain as the Republican candidate, just ask me if I care.
The KKKlintoons don't have friends. Only stooges........
“This dilemma hasn’t yet caught up with the white Americans. Once nominated for the presidency, however, one thing is all but guaranteed — that the Republicans’ “dirt digging” and “mud slinging” machines will blitz the digital space and the news media with a relentless series of vicious and personal attacks against Obama, designed to arouse the latent prejudices of American voters.”
Sure, of course we have always been the Party intent in maintaing the Blacks and other minorities in their place, history has shown that! Sarcasm
That the interest of the Clinton will expose Barak to more destructive personal information, should not be considered at all.
Black? Why not.
Muslim? That is where I have reservations.
McCain: I think Senator Obama's budget goals will be difficult to attain.
Obama: I disagree.
The Spin:
MSM-1: We're you surprised by McCain's vicious attack on Senator Obama's ability to handle complicated budgets? Did you sense a racial aspect to that?
MSM-2: I did. It was unmistakable. It was almost like McCain said -- and I think that we saw a hint of his famous temper there -- that blacks can't handle money and that's why they're so poor. But I thought Senator Obama handled it beautifully.
MSM-1: Absolutely. He really turned it back on McCain. He's a powerful speaker and you know the crowd was just loving it.
But also unlike liberals, you can see that other than skin color, there's no "there" there. If he were not black, he would not even be taken as seriously as Kucinich by a political party. He's got nothing but skin color to get him noticed. And a shallow, skin-deep bunch of donkeys might just make this "show about nothing" their nominee.
He is running a campagn that completely conceals this behind populist speeches, a youthful demeanor, or bright catch phrases and cliches that really say nothing as to his true positions and convictions.
He, the DNC, and ultimately the MSM are counting on the X-Generation and M-TV generation to not care about any of that...to only care how he "looks" and "sounds".
He sounds so positive, he says he cares, he says he will reach out...and of course, best of all...he says he's for change.
Well, Hitler changed Germnay and its Weimar Republic in the 1930s and he spoke positively and made Germans proud again...but after tens of millions of their own dead, a ruined nation, and tens of millions of others dead, clearly the change was not for the good History is repleat with examples of nations and people's who go down such paths and rarely learn from history.
I hope and pray to God that the people of this nation will not do the same and will avoid being taken in by this energtic snake oil salesman.
