45. I voted for Obama

Sat Feb 22, 2014, 09:40 PM

Feb 2014

Not because he was black. Because I liked what he said. Because McCain and Romney are both unsuitable ( that was the most polite word I could think to use) in so many ways. Would I ever vote for a Republican for President? Well, I have voted in every election since 1968 and I have not voted for a Republican, yet. So I doubt it.

I did not vote for him because he was black, I would not vote for a woman if I thought she was unsuitable, unless her opposition was another Republican, sexist, racist, phony Christian idiot.
