| Race not the Issue on Obama |
|
|
|
|
To say that if Obama loses it is because of race is just plain dumb. A stonger argument could be made that if he wins, it is because of Race. over 90% of African Americans are voting for him (against Hillary the numbers were the same). White Americans are split. One could easily say that White Americans are open minded while African Americans when given a choice vote Race Only. Hillary had a strong record with the African AMerican Community. Yet, she was abandend based on race. On Merits, Obama has no record to run on, 2 Years of National Expereince and No International Experience when he announced his candidacy. He has no record of change in Illinois or the US Sentate, he voted the most liberal view more than any other Senator. Not a bad thing by itself, but not indicative of person who can be mainstreem and work for Change in a bipartisan way. McCain has a 20 year history of fighting the establishment in Congress and before Obama was an option, the press loved to point out that he could never be President because he had too much common sense and too much of a change agent for Republicans to vote for him. Those are the facts, it is very racist to say that if Obama loses it is because of his race. I actully think he is a good guy and one day could be worthy, but not yet, he has do do something to show his substnace. Would you make a 25 year old with a 170 IQ and huge potential the CEO or would you select someone with a proven record? |

If Obama fails to win in November,it will certainly be because he is black and if mcain looses, no one will be suprised.
Any contrary view to this is deception.

The United States of America already has a reputation to be proud of, born of centuries of struggle in the “new world.” The “old world’s” like or dislike of our country has little to do with the civil rights act, or slavery, or whether we elect a man or a woman to serve as president, or the president’s skin color. Our history is replete with great men and women of all colors. The day that Mr. Obama, the presumptive Democratic presidential nominee, was graduating from law school, another black man, Clarence Thomas, was being appointed to the United States Supreme Court, and a black woman, Condoleezza Rice, was teaching at Stanford, having earned her PhD in political science ten years earlier at age 26, and yet another black man, Colin Powell, was serving as the 12th Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. Ms. Rice, of course, currently serves as the United Sates Secretary of State, and was preceded in this office by Mr. Powell. Mr. Thomas continues to serve as a Supreme Court Justice. The point being, a very great many of us everyday Americans already do judge people by the content of their character and hope that the rest of the world will soon join us. |

Completely agree with you. Skin color should not be a reason to vote or not for a candidate. Neither should be being liked or not by foreigners.
There are thousands of reasons to vote for candidate A or candidate B but the 2 reasons posited in the article are quite weak or superficial. |

| Great article |

It is amazing sometimes to see how close-minded Americans can be compared to the rest of the world. Is it better to vote for McCain because he's not black or to vote for Obama because he is? Is it alright to want a change from the current regime but to accept complacency because the change comes from a non-white? How can so many people be fed up with the current administration but still fear change? These are just some questions to ask yourselves...

So, allow me to see if I got this straight. Foreigners want us to elect Obama because of his race (euphemistcally called "ascendancy" in this article)?
And the assumption being made is that if we elect Obama, the whole world will stop all the "negative feelings" to the U.S./Americans/the people of the U.S. and will immediately start following us as their leaders?
Will voting for Obama make my hair grow as well? |
