40 years passed by and unfortunately only one - Michael Steele - passes integrity test...
Obama is not black. He is HALF BLACK. Half Marxist. Half socialist. Half anti-American. Half anti-military. Half anti-defense. Half racist. Half anti-Constitution. Half power mad. Half tax crazy.
Our enemies delight at the idea of him in the White House. God help us.
“This hope is shared by many whites as well, liberal and conservative (let’s face it — the cohort of black conservatives thinking about voting for Obama isn’t likely to tip the election). The premise underlying it is that a black president may be more effective in using the bully pulpit to address certain issues. Just as a Democrat Clinton could sign welfare-reform legislation, and foreign-policy hawk Nixon could go to China, a black president may be able to touch what are third rails for a white president. A glimpse of that possibility was on display on Father’s Day, when Obama addressed (albeit rather tepidly) the issue of absent black fathers.”
This hope is BEYOND phony and false.
Obama’s in with the race hustlers. He will set BACK race relations due to his relationship with extremists like Wright and others.
This is more Obamedia PIFFLE.
They are fools.
"The premise underlying it is that a black president may be more effective in using the bully pulpit to address certain issues."
Kinda like Obama's "...eloquent speech on race relations" in which he told America...It's a black thing! Whites can't understand! Deal with it!
, “I am wondering if this is the time when we get over the hump, where an Obama victory will finally, at long last, move us beyond some of the old conversations about race.”
OH hells no!
As long as liberals are around, they will exploit race!
In fact, I expect it would just be the beginning of an all new race based form of government.
There are still black conservatives that see Obama for what he is. Of course, the MSM will ignore them utterly.
Dang. I used to admire him so much. He was on my dissertation committee and I thought he was wonderful. He'd argue against that commie Haitian nut DeGraf on the creole-list, he'd read Ayn Rand, he stood up against all sorts of hate when he wrote "Losing The Race."
To have him sink back and be seduced by an inexperienced but charismatic Marxist whose closest friends are race-baiters and bomb-throwers is really depressing.
To think that in the end, color trumps all...
If I had to pick between a black conservative and a white liberal, I'd pick the conservative every single time. Ten out of ten. I just don't get it.
Indeed... and if used as a major factor in voting... it questions the character/intellect of the voter.
Racism is for democrats.
Irish Republicans voted for Jack kennedy in droves...
So does his white mama not count?
Oh yeah, he said she didn’t. Even though his white grandparents practically raised him, he has CHOSEN to identify with his black absent father. WTH?
A sizebale chunck of my ancestry is Native American, but I would not vote for an American Indian *just because* they are AI. I would not feel any conflict over not voting for an AI because he or she held political beliefs contrary to my own.
Just the thought of having more White radio personalities makes it hard for me to listen to Williams. I mean he of all people should understand how important it is that we all support only those who look like us even if the think and talk like members of the old Soviet Central Committee.
Bye Williams,please don’t think me a racist, but I really do want only my own to succeed and I would listen to Air America as over you as long as the host is White. PLEEEZE!
Can whites comment on this thread?
By opting, generally, for supporting one of their own feminists destroyed, utterly, any and all remaining credibility they had in professing to hold moral high ground. And they are now a spent force, old news, more pitied than scorned, and they are essentially ignored as the irrelevancy that they in fact are.
Will the same happen to black conservatives? Time will tell. But the choice is theirs. And others are watching, and waiting, to see what that choice will be.

Given his history and overseas activities in Kenya, Obama would have issues getting a security clearance. He might be a US citizen but he is not an American much less black.
