sad but true, Obama will mean yes there is racism, but if you have ideals you can stand for them, but even Obam's election will not lift people out of the ghetto, the only thing is work, but then even that might not be enough for many whites, blacks have to over prove their abilities in general.

Blacks that participate to a particular degree in the white system will get the same benefits as a white person who also participates to that degree. The black problems will not be solved by external controls.

They will no longer be able to preach their racist, anti-American hatred from the pulpit and will instead be left with nothing else to preach to their congregation but Scriptures. That isn't going to fill the pews.....or the offering plates.....


That explains why so many blacks are trashing Obama including his own pastor.
I pity you, BillyBob. I really do. Are you so dissatisfied with your own position in life, that you have to down another group in order to make yourself feel superior?

You cannot possibly understand the way Americans of African Descent feel, or want. In point of fact, a lot of us, even though we may not share his political views are proud of the effort being made, because he is the first Presidential Candidate to come along who doesn't come off espousing some kind of "Entitlement Mentality" and can express thoughts without putting it in the form of a rhyme or catchy turn of phrase.

Or is it that you fear that we as a people are discovering that such things are possible. The historical significance of his candidacy is undeniable and he will have a much venerated place in history as the first "Black" presidential candidate to be the front-runner in a Presidential Election. Even if he is not successful in his bid for the presidency, the political effects are undeniable. For the first time, Americans of African Descent are participating in an election on an unprecedented scale.

Whatever your reasons for posting your bigotry, it's becoming clear to me just how little you see beyond your own stereotype.

Nope, I am superior simply because of who I am.

Sure I can, they want to:
Kill whitey
Kill cops
Smoke crack
Father children out of wedlock
Rape white women
Commit crimes
Commit murder
Refrain from taking a shower
Avoid work
Collect welfare....

I understand your people better than you do.

Couldn't these also be applied to white people, though?

Not really. We don't have those stereotypes as part of our makeup.

Not at nearly as high as a percentage per capita as it applies to blacks.

Fair enough - at least you admit those stats can be applied to whites.

That's a meaningless concession.
