Spoken like a true believer that blacks deserve second-class citizenship. That's not racist because you could be Alan Keyes or Ward Connelly or some other black person who believes that bullshit.
Bulllshit. I'm a realist. Maybe you think that mainstream America will all just fawn over someone they perceive to be a pro-crime, pro-drug, racialist. Sorry, but I know better.
So, pandering to you is OK, but addressing what is important to blacks is good for America?
Excuse me, but that is incredibly silly to the nth degree.
I think what you meant to right is that what is important to blacks is bad for America. Thats not correct. What is important to blacks cannot be emphasized by a black candidate, or else his blackness will be emphasized. The more that is true, the more votes go to John McCain.
Obama is running against the worst presidential ticket in modern American history, but you believe he needs to reject his own race to become president .. and we can all then celebrate how unracial America is.
Incredibly silly argument.
He doesn't need to "reject" his own race. I never said that. But he needs to avoid the perception that he is pandering to them. And him being elected at all, is a step in the right direction. But leave the strawman arguments at home, I never said that it would mean America was "unracial".
And the worst presidential ticket? Maybe you think so, but Americans don't. It wasn't so long ago that McCain was ahead of Obama.
How about this .. how about him just saying I hate dumb nxxxers. Would that suit you? Surely he can then pick up the racist vote.
You are an idiot. I'm on YOUR side, genius. I don't think blacks are equal in this country, and I think that needs to change. But as much as I'd love to shove it in Americans faces and say "YES, HE IS BLACK, AND HE IS OBVIOUSLY THE BEST CANDIDATE", if he does that, HE LOSES. Americans are RACIST. You know that, but somehow think that he should be losing those racist votes to pander to people who will already vote for him nonetheless.
I mean, who cares if another innocent person dies at the hands of the state and an unjusr criminal system. No skin off your nose.
Who cares if another 92 year-old black woman is murdered by police as she sat quietly in her own home .. police burst through the door then shoot het to death in her wheelchair .. why the fuck would you care?
Oh, and actions which would lead to McCain being elected will help either of those things? Do tell how that will happen.
As a child, I used to wonder how this country could have allowed the ungodly oppression and terrorism that blacks suffered for almost 400 years. Where were the "good" people? .. Then I realized, they were "good" people just like you .. they had their own concerns .. let em' hang.
Just close your eyes and symbolism will make it all better.
Bullshit. And you know shit about me, so don't make this personal. You seem like a smart guy, try and stick to the arguments and don't make asinine ad hominem arguments.
Let me see .. we can tell the white politicians that "we are Americans and you can't ignore us" .. but by your own words, Obama can ignore us .. that makes sense to you?
Obama can ignore you...WHEN HE IS RUNNING. When he is president, he damn well better listen to you and represent you.
Feel free to go to the polls and support him if you choose .. never suggested telling you who to vote for .. but I have a different perspective and my name is not YOU. I don't vote for actors and clowns who will say and do anything to get elected.
Then you don't vote. All politicians do that. You want someone who will represent you in office or not? If not, feel free to be a purist. Feel free to not vote for anyone who isn't a fucking perfectionist. Then you will have people who aren't just "clowns" in office, you will have people who are dangerous and actively work against your interest.
So congratulations about being "pure". You want to hate on whites like me who support black efforts but think that Obama being a purist will mean that McCain get elected. You would rather Obama promise you things and lose the election, and not be able to actually give you anything, than Obama ignore you, and then win and be able to help you.
This is the rampant idiocy that is so common among human rights folks.
By the way, it isn't the jewish voting bloc that carries the weight as jews make up about 3% of the American population. It is jewish money that carries the weight.
No, its not. Its the Jewish voting bloc, specifically in Florida. The Cubans are also an important voting bloc, even though their percentage is even tinier. Thats the idiosyncratic problems with the electoral college, that small groups get disproportionate amounts of power.
