I don’t think you have to be a big Obama supporter to understand the outright rage and huge cynicism that would be rife in this country for many years should Obama be disqualified on some technicality.
It would set back race relations decades.The entire fabric of the nation would be hurt beyond what we can even conceive of now.It would be 1967 all over again and the mantra of black America would be”whitey has tricked us again”.
Some might say.”So what,let them steam”You are probably the ones that have never been IN a race riot.
A very frightening event,indeed.

re: “... outright rage and huge cynicism that would be rife in this country for many years should Obama be disqualified on some technicality.”

(1) Some technicality? Uh, it’s Article II of the US Constitution, not some obscure administrative regulation. In other words, the description “some technicality” does not seem apt.

(2) Sure, there might be rage and cynicism if Obama was rightly disqualified. That pales to insignificance beside the rage and cynicism that would occur should Obama, or anyone else, be shown to be an illegitimate candidate, and to become, or remain, president anyway. Your not-so-subtle reference to race riots are laughable, when compared to the likelihood of civil war.

You write “You are probably the ones that have never been IN a race riot.” I’ve been in a riot, and it was pretty annoying, what with untrained hand to hand fighting around the edges, and small arms fire and the like. I’ve also been in the beginning stages of a civil war, when regular military forces clashed with each other, and martial law was imposed, and there were no communications, and heavy weapons moved to position, and military roadblocks were set up, and gunships flew overhead, and water and electricity was cut off, and hospitals were closed to enemies of the state (that last bit struck me particularly, probably because I am a doctor). As I write this, I am remembering watching a pickup truck heavily loaded with wounded and dead young people, all covered in blood and mud, with a screaming bloody maniac at the wheel, ramming its way past military guards into a hospital ER for treatment of the wounded, while a skyscraper burned in the background. Yeah, I’ve been in a riot, and I’ve been in worse, and, if forced to make a choice, I’ll choose the riot rather than the worse.

Riverman,

If this does in fact develop to be true, the American public would have EVERY RIGHT to be enraged and collectively disqualify this candidate from running for the POTUS!!

Only someone, who is blindly worshipping this person would attempt to characterize a complete breach of our Constitution as a “technicality”.

Imagine the complete chaos and anarchy that would exist in this country if anyone could simply subvert the constitution by rationalizing a criminal act as a “technicality” every time a public official breaks the law.

Wake UP.

River -

One more point. Thus far, Obama’s candidacy has done everything EXCEPT improve race relations in our country. He will never be able to undo the damage he has caused by his own words in his released books, not to mention the racist church he attended for over 20 years and his completely racist supporters who are using his candidacy to further their hate filled causes - Louis Farrakhan, Hamas, various U.S. state communists organizations to name just a few.

And the biggest irony of his anti-white racist supporters is the fact that he, himself, is leading the greatest racist genocide against his own, black race - through his stance on ABORTION - which incredibly, is massacring blacks at a rate 3-times that of the overall rate in the US. There has never been a more radically pro-death candidate for the POTUS in our country's history! Yes - he'd rather tap into “black politics” align himself with the black democrats in this country, who support the ethnic cleansing of their own people at 3X the national rate through abortion. If he was any kind of a real man, he would throw this ugly truth back in the faces of these black racist leaders who are using this misery in the black population for their own, destructive quest for power. This incredible deception perfectly demonstrates the meaning of the phrase - “Intrinsically Evil”

"should Obama be disqualified on some technicality..
It would set back race relations decades"

If he is elected because he is black despite not being qualified then how many years would race relations be set back.. or advanced, in your opinion?
