A guide to which minority group has the best chance to win the White House next.
At long last, my people have an answer to the question "When will we have a Jewish president?" The answer, it turns out, is "Not before we have a black president." I imagine that all ethnic groups play this game of "when will one of ours get there?" (The question is especially common among Jews, since we're sort of white and used to success at other jobs—law, medicine, swimming.) But now that a half-African man with Muslim ancestors has defeated, for the presidency, an Episcopalian with a Roman numeral after his name, the bookmakers have to move the odds for all of us.
Which historically oppressed group will see one of its own take the oath of the presidency on a Bible/Quran/Analects/etc. next? We must admit that some groups are too small to have much of a chance—met any Zoroastrians lately?—and others seem too exotic. But plenty of others are in the running. Here, then, is a guide to which minority group will next see one of its own in the White House, in descending order of probability, and with possible candidates included:
The women: First off, they're not a minority. With so many more men than women imprisoned, unable to vote because of felony convictions, dying in battle, and murdered, there are both more women alive and more women eligible to vote. If they choose to unite behind one of their own—as many of them were inclined to do in 2008—they'll be the not-so-little voting bloc that could.

I hope they take a close up of the book O puts his hand on January 20.
I hope this is satire.
Very funny.
I am still changing channels anytime he is on...

It won’t matter. He is already violating the presidential oath in terms of upholding and protecting the Constitution. He will lie AGAIN when he takes the oath.
That anyone, let alone a sitting U.S. senator with designs on the highest office in the land, would conceal being a Muslim for twenty-odd years while going through the outward motions of practicing Christianity (or vice-versa, for that matter) is a bizarre accusation. I would be tempted to dismiss it as paranoid lunacy if it weren’t so obviously a crass, politically-motivated smear.
Why don’t they just ‘get in line’ like everyone else?
Personally, I’m betting that a Hindu Animist married to a Japanese Buddhist will establish a Monarchy in 2010, right after the Second Civil War.
Ditto. Jan 20th.
1 John 4 tells us how to tell. And Buttock 0bama fails the test.
1 John 4:5-6
5 False prophets belong to the world. So they speak from the world’s point of view. The world listens to them. 6 We belong to God. And those who know God listen to us. But those who don’t belong to God don’t listen to us. That’s how we can tell the difference between the Spirit of truth and the spirit of lies.
I am also changing channels when he’s on but since I no longer watch any channels that feature political talking heads, I rarely see/hear him. I’m counting on freerepublic for what I need to know.
