The historic circumstances of the Barack Obama candidacy are likely to reduce black support for the Republican nominee. But there are African-Americans who support John McCain. Among them is Justin Jordan, a junior at Texas Southern University who says he is unimpressed by Obama.

I like that. “Nothing Obamao has done is stellar”

But you see, it’s not WHAT Obamao has done, it’s what he’s GOING to do.
Change everything? That’s a platform to run on?

I don’t like what he’s going to do. We should all pray he doesn’t get near the WH.

Guess that is good in that people recognize the need to not elect Obama. However I don't think McCain is in jeopardy of losing Texas come Nov.

That’s one heck-of-a homily. She strikes me as being a lass closer to St. Paul than I am. I hope to get there before I die.

Small businessman and very tax wary, strong 2nd amendment concerns.
Obama has done nothing special he says to have black support automatically.
He says black republicans are treated as devils by democrats.
Sounds like a freeper and he wants to run for Senate someday.

May his numbers grow, and may he find a home here if he hasn’t already.

He must seem like a freak to NPR. LOL

back to the top! cheers for Justin Jordan.

I believe Republicans and McCain need a campaign showing many respectable black Americans aren’t drinking the Obamamessiah kool-aid. Thomas Sowell, Star Parker, et. al are good examples.

Obama is a student of the Saul Alinsky school of Marxist methodology, and ‘change’ is Alinsky’s chosen word for the upheavals he taught to create chaos and anarchy in order to acquire power. Look for the racial heat to get turned up when Obamessiah gets back from his ‘vacation’.
