Obama Plays The Race Card

[ClosedCaption]

Obama shouldnt say anything to or about blacks because its racists and makes whites nervous.

Your post would make more sense if you understood election demographics better.
Democrats would be pretty dumb to rely on that. White, middle class suburban areas are expected this year to have much higher turnout.

Inner city black neighborhoods have historically had a fraction of the voter turnout that other neighborhoods do. That turnout is expected to be even lower than normal this year.

Really.

I wonder if its the economy....

Perhaps instead of hoping for a racially based voting block to support them, Dems might actually do something to stimulate job growth in the inner city?

Nah, that would be too complicated.

Or irrelevant to this discussion of election strategy.

Jobs are irrelevant to this election?

No wonder it's going to be Dem-O-Geddon.

I'm assuming you guys don't know anything about election politics.

He's completely right. The Republicans are counting on Black people not voting..

That doesn't even make sense since blacks only make up 12% in our country. Republicans are looking to open up the eyes of those who were blind to Obama and his socialist agenda.

Iott on 1964 Civil Rights Act question focus of Kaptur release|Glass City Jungle
Not too surprising coming from Iott who we now know likes to dress up as a Nazi.

20% real unemployment, nah, it's the USCoC that really matters... good grief.

Uh, this is even tamer than what Rand Paul said.

Transcript of the question:

Tom Troy, Toledo Blade:
Mr. Iott, you often cite the Constitution as to whether a given policy is the right path to follow. Some believe the 1964 Civil Rights Act, which required restaurant and hotel owners to open their doors to whoever came in regardless of race, some believed that was an unconstitutional infringement on the rights of private business owners. In your opinion, if that came up for renewal, for example, would you vote for renewal or oppose it on constitutional grounds?

Rich Iott:
I think that the Constitution says that all people are, uh, should be afforded the same rights in any situation that is a public situation. Uh, and I think we have to look at that and, and see exactly, you know, what, uh, uh, what the proposal is that is being set forth. I wasn’t there; I can’t tell you what happened back then. And I’m not a seer and I can’t tell you what’s going to be suggested in the future.

But I do believe in the Constitution and I believe that every decision that is made in Congress should be looked at through a filter of three things. Number one: is it constitutional? Number two: is it moral? And number three: is it what my constituents want done? I think that everything should be looked at through a screen of those filters.

Elena Fucking Kagan won't even tell you if the government has the right to tell you what to eat, and she's a seated SCOTUS Justice.

Or perhaps I meant "irrelevant" to this particular conversation. But if you'd prefer to make your arguments using out-of-context quotes, be my guest.

That doesn't even make sense since blacks only make up 12% in our country. Republicans are looking to open up the eyes of those who were blind to Obama and his socialist agenda.

Except of course in urban areas, where they make up a much larger percentage.

But continue as you were.

Sorta like jumping into a conversation that you don't understand, and making meaningless comments?

You mean clueless like that? Or some other way?

When in doubt just call em "Evil Racists." Is anyone really surprised by this stuff? The Democrats have nothing left to offer the nation. It's time for them to be shown the door. VOTE!

You don't even read the thread you're posting in.

If you had, you'd see that this thread is about Conservatives playing the race card, and claiming that Obama is "racist".

Even in a larger urban area, it wouldn't be enough to clinch an election.

Do you seriously believe that it was all the blacks that got Obama elected?

You're wrong. In places like Connecticut, New York, and other states with close races and large inner city populations, a higher turnout in the inner cities can and will make or break an election.

No, of course not. What exactly did I say that made you think that?
