Please start listing exact and direct quotes that paint him as a racist because I have yet to see any. All you have managed to do here is regurgitate Fox News headlines. As of right now I don't even think you know what the term racist means, I suggest you look it up.
This country and world has always been run by rich white men. That isn't being racist, it's being truthful. |
Hillary and Obama arn't rich white men. They are rich though, and they have ran the country for several years now.

Thought we were evaluating a candidate running for president who supported a racist reverend. Can you handle that truth or will dodge the point again by giving us a quote from john adams next?

I think I've found the 20 something percent of Bush supporters in America, they all live at the Brown Cafe.

Is this the best they can do?? I don't suppose Bush has ever used the "N" word before. |

Since you're such a staunch fan, advocate, loyal follower (and i stress the word follower) of Fox News how do you feel about Bill O'Reilly talking about lynching Michelle Obama? How many years have you sat on your couch in silence? |

Unfortunately though there are too many of you that are blindly falling for his "Change" BS without even knowing what he intends to change or how. Or even if what he wants to change needs to be changed. Such sheep. Baah Baaah Baaah. LOL.

All Rev Wright did was badmouth your vision of America as a perfect world where everyone is happy and treated fairly and never is heard a discouraging word. Even if everything he said was wrong and/or over the top, there's no comparison between the two.

Big Arrow, they don't care what he is going to change. All they know is, he hates America and they hate America, so his changes will suit them just fine. |

What's so bad? All presidents make good and bad decisions. While agree we need to exit Iraq. But we can't just leave.
