|
he's Black.
I'm glad this got out before the general election, so we don't have any surprises.

1. Whooo....you mean like Martin Luther King Jr! |
|
How Cool! :thumbsup:
If MLK jr was running in 2007 in the Democratic party presidential race, I wonder how many Democrats would say....
"he can't win, cause "other" people won't vote for him.....he's Black!"

5. The Biden Campaign is obviously in cahoots with Hillary. |

I'm watching my email for the fundraising letter response from Barack.

10. My mother only went to school until she was 13 |
|
Her mother died in the Depression and my mother had to raise the other kids. So she wasn't a very sophisticated or well-read woman. But on matters of race or religion or sex life, she'd say, "There's good people and there's bad people in every group. All you have to do is know the difference." I came home one day from school and repeated the "N" word in reference to our neighbors across the hall, who I was actually very close to growing up. My mother didn't hesitate to give me a good couple of smacks on the behind and punish me by keeping me inside after school. She wasn't a child beater, you know, but if she thought something really, really called for a lesson learned, she had no scruples about a spank. I doubt she ever thought about concepts such as equal rights or civil rights, although that was what was going on outside in those years. She just concerned herself instinctively with right and wrong. Yep, leaving a mark and I thank her for it.

11. I don't think that a majority of those types would ever vote for a Democrat |
|
And of the minority he loses due to his skin pigment he probably picks up an equal number as a result of his skin pigment.
Not all Republicans and right leaning independents are racist. The 'economic' Republicans (re: socially moderate) are really the 'swing' vote. The other 2/3rds inclusive of the racist/nativeist/Christian Taleban element would never vote for a Democrat.
