I am white, with an embarrassing racist family – and I am voting for Obama ALL THE WAY TO THE WHITE HOUSE!!!

So to all of you ignorant people out there that agree with this ridiculous article and only see color…please, do our country a favor and don’t vote!

Thanks for the feedback, everyone. Much appreciated. You almost expect racial politics to be played in parts of the Republican Party– most notably, through the “Southern strategy” that has existed since the Civil Rights Movement. But to see leaders in the Democratic Party– which for the last few decades has been a firewall against intolerance of all types– engaging in the exact same type of behavior is both disappointing and alarming.

“there are portions of the state that are… um, racially polarized.”

Exactly!!!
and that is the case EVERYWHERE, in all the damn states, and OBAMA still continues to win them and gain more “white” voters/supporters as the day goes by.

the thing i don’t get about white supremacists/idiots (which this guy clearly is) is why they seem to think that if they get rid of “blacks” or keep the “black man” down, that their lives will miraculously become happy and their white world will be a better place? IT WONT! you will just find something else to bitch and moan about, because that is just the pessimistic culture of people like that.

get a life and look at facts, not emotional crap!
he is the best guy for the job. it’s 2008, evolution people evolution.

Hey…I’m from Pennsylvania and I heard that during this year’s election they’ll be handing out color strips along with pictures of the candidates, so that we voters can make an informed decision. Don’t hate on our progressive politics. That’s all I have to say.

Any question why all Republicans and a growing number of Democrats despise Hillary Clinton?

That a Democratic candidate for the presidency would systematically inject race into the campaign by employing these dirty scare tactics (“I’m not racist, but others are, so be very afraid”) is the most disappointing thing I’ve seen in politics in a long, long time.

Do not be fooled by any suggestions that Rendell does not speak for the Clinton team. That’s what we heard about Shaheen, about Bob Kerrey and about the staffers who sent out the “Obama is a Muslim” emails. The Clintons are dirty, and Democrats who reward this style of politics with their votes are complicit in the slime.

This lifelong Democrat will be voting Obama in the primary, and McCain in the general if Hillary is the Democratic nominee. Congratulations Clintons, you just turned a longtime liberal into an independent. Dirtbags.

Well, I guess everyone is entitled to speak his/her mind just as each voter is entitled to vote for the candidate they know can help move this country forward, away from the path of narrow mindedness.
