How sad to be so hateful of someone simply because of a difference in skin color.
Birthers, teabaggers, whatever the GOP term of the moment might be, they simply can't stand having a black man in the White House. It must really suck to wake up in the morning filled with such hate.

3. I can't stand the man for who he is. It is simply amusing that he's orange.

4. You nailed it. It won't matter how many birth certificates or how many witnesses come forward, it is
all about his race. I am so disgusted with these people. I always say, there are plenty of reasons to dislike other than skin color, sexual orentation, etc.

5.  I Have Never Understood It
At all. Have lived in the North, South, Midwest, went to a segrated school and lived in largely black areas too. It just absolutely makes zero sense to me. It's different from simple stereotyping, which everyone does to some extent. Really sad.

8. That's it exactly.
And I think the fact that his mother was white has a lot to do with the hate. Mixed marriages still bring the ire of a lot of low level thinkers.

I can't believe that people still think in those terms, but they do. It's an awful lot of hate to carry around every day.

11. Pathetic is what it is.
It is so obvious what's in their dirty little hearts, and they are just PATHETIC.

So many things are happening in the world right now, the future is on the line more and more, in so many ways. But the bottom 40% of Americans want to waste everyone's time on this backwards BS. It's so embarrassing.

12. Racists are LOSERS whose only way of feeling good about themselves
is when they can put others beneath them for whatever fake reason they can dig up.
