Re: A Must Watch Video Of Obama

I've seen this video before. What really bothers me the most is the voting percentages.

92% of the black vote in Mississippi for Obama; 91% of the black vote in Wisconsin for him; 84% of blacks went for Obama in Maryland; 87% in Ohio; and so forth.

Clinton received 55% of the white vote in Texas, 64% in Ohio and 66% in New Jersey for starters. Even though she has received an even percentage of votes from both the white and black segments, the blacks are simply voting in very large percentages for Obama.

So, this election, IMO, is just going to be a huge racial issue and nothing having to do with his qualifications - which he doesn't have!!

This has already been posted. It's propaganda. Anything against BO that starts off with his name is not worth paying any attention to.

It's only going to be a "huge racial issue" if people keep highlighting stats about race and not the issues that really matter, IMO.

Race aside ... according to the constitution he's qualified to run ...

He's also a college grad ... has a political resume ... and is Senator of his state ...

Whether you disagree that he's presidential ... is another story ...

I know that the last 40 some odd presidents have been WHITE MALE, ANGLO-SAXON, PROTESTANT ... with the exception of that guy who was going to allow the pope to take over ... what's his name ...??? JFK?

Last I looked .... blacks have voted Democrat since the the New Deal overwhelmingly... so whether it had been Hillary ... they would've have voted for a Democrat in this race .....

Dissecting this primary race along race is faulty .... one would have also look at the young whites who are now squarely in the Obama camp to have a serious discussion about the breakdown of stats ....

Now how some white democrats will vote in the general election is entirely another story.

Obama is the next president of the United States ... you heard it here.

Black women along w/ all other women as a bloc have voted for a white male Anglo-Saxon Protestant President since the 1920's ...

Some of these candidates were "qualified" and some were peanut farmers from Georgia.

Now ... let's get to the nitty gritty ...

if black America who has gone though 250 years of being viewed as property ... stripped of their dignity and bred as animals were .... emancipated to win a war and then treated as second class citizens in this nation until 40-50 years ago ...while being lynched, spat upon, and humiliated .... when given the choice between two equally qualified candidates want to go w/ the black candidate because it would make inroads .... in a nation that still struggles w/ having people of color holding the highest offices in the land then ... hey ... more power to them ... I have no problem w/ making that a deciding factor ...

However ... black America will not (any time soon) and has not chosen the President of the United States .... ever ... as the decisive constituency!!!

It will be white America that will decide who will be the next President of the United States ... they are still the majority ... especially if we look at the constituents of the eligible voting electorate ...

Moreover, it will be white American females, like you, who will decide whether Obama is presidential or not ... they are the majority voice in the electorate.

Wutevah!

I will say that viewing the conversations/speeches, side by side, Obama has more charisma than McCain even though he is so liberal he reeks.

He seems to be able to, craftily - emphasis on the craftily, dissuade the opposing viewpoints, especially made against him - if you aren't paying close attention.

So, if he gets in - Wutevhah - no one can blame me for voting for him.

And his wife made the most ignorant statement I have ever heard - she is only NOW proud of America because a black man is running for President. Totally a racist comment on her part and ignorant I must stipulate - again.
