More on an Obama surge: Black Georgians nearly match whites in new voter registration

Secretary of State Karen Handel is on record saying that there is no giant surge of voter registration in Georgia — and in the largest context, she’s right.

Newly released figures from her office show that 406,379 new voters registered between Jan. 1 to Sept. 30. Four years ago, the number was 371,932.

Overall, that’s a 9 percent increase from ’04 to ’08 — hardly surprising in a presidential race with no incumbent. Barack Obama or no Barack Obama.

But this is far from the whole story. Those same numbers show that 164,859 of those new voters are African-American. And 176,570 of those new voters are white.

That’s a 27 percent increase in new voter registration for African-Americans over ’04, and a 13.7 percent decrease in new voter registration for whites over ’04.

This is significant given that, overall, blacks make up 29 percent of Georgia’s 5.5 million voters. And it fits with the fact that, in the first days of early voting in Georgia, African-Americans have cast nearly 40 percent of the ballots.

See the month-by-month registration numbers for yourself here.

Overall, new registration by non-white voters (including Asians and Hispanics) outpaced new registration by white voters, 230,036 to 176,570.

Even this isn’t the whole story. Monday is the final day to register to vote in time for the Nov. 4 presidential election. No doubt you saw this AJC article on the routine purging of voters from the rolls.

Handel’s office won’t say how many names have been purged this year, but 274,000 were removed last year for inactivity.

There’s nothing to suggest that this process isn’t on the up-and-up. But remember the Feb. 5 presidential primary? African-Americans made up 30 percent of the 2 million votes cast.

That means, statistically, a disproportionate number of African-Americans protected themselves from being purged from voter rolls for inactivity.

Obama could be Hitler himself; blacks would vote for him regardless. They don’t care who is good or bad. Just skin color. America blacks are the worst of the worst.

Is this really a news story? With the amount of new residents that have moved into the state since last year, the amount of newly registered voters would make since. That is why the number is roughly the same since last year.

The media really needs to start going back to reporting actual news..not trying to sensationalize something that does not exist. Just like CNN reporting that Steve Jobs was seriously ill causing Apple’s stock to plummet.

The AJC needs to look into actual news. This could explain why their subscriptions have dropped continuously over the years. Where is the article about that? We just want unbiased news and if you cannot provide it, there are a lot of other sources that do.

Maryland’s Karen Handel, a failed woman, and hack in the employ of the Gay Old Perverts since Dan Quayle was palmed off on Boomers as “the best of our generation” by JFK’s assassin George H.W. Bush, knows all she has to sustain her in this life her curses have found for her is the Roman Anti-Christ’s continued patronage…which will be withdrawn from her should she fail them in the job they put her in.

Florida was stolen to tip it in 2000, but they needed a majority Roman Catholic Supreme Court to defile The Constitution (Viz. Breyer’s dissent - ‘Bush v. Gore’);

The GAO confirmed Ohio was stolen in 2004 and Diebold’s CEO said it would happen long before.

Karen Handel upwards of a year ago stated publicly there was no way she could deploy a paper trail backup to ensure voting integrity next month.

Need any awake American say more?

What’s the old quote about “hanging an admiral or two to shape up the rest of the navy?”

Defrauding the vote by an official placed in the public trust is treason. Any elected official found to have contributed to another stolen election must be tried and fried or the People are lost.

Righteousness exalteth a nation: but sin is a reproach to any people.

The American People have been a bit short on the “exalt” since we let Bush get cheated in to commit 9/11, are we going to let Bullethead Bush3 keep the rape going?

Hey sambo, it sounds like you are not happy about the new registrations. Look, I am unsure what race you are, but this country is in shambles. At least Obama has a plan, and his running mate is seasoned. On the other side, McCain may have what it takes, but his age and health increases the likelyhood of a Palin office. No matter your party, it is obvious that Palin is not ready to assume the VP post, or the top desk. It will take more than good ole common sense to fix the Bush mess. Obama/Biden is the best ticket. As for your view of Blacks, no offense taken, stereotypes of my race are common, though unfounded. Wake up, Sambo.

Do these new black voters here know that Obama had a coke induced gay sex affair with Chicago limo driver Larry SinClair in 1999? Would this behavior fly with the brothers hustling on the street corner? Would it fly with the 70% of single black baby mamas, I believe that the common term in that community is Hs or B!*hes, that comprise the heart and soul of the Black community? Do they even know Obama, or do they just see his skin color. MLK would be so proud.

“[B]lacks would vote for him regardless.”

This statement is demonstrably false. Black Americans did not vote for Sen. Carol Mosely-Braun (Illinois Democrat running for president), Rev. Sharpon, CEO Herman Cain (Republican for Senate), Lynn Swann (credible candidate for PA Senate). This list is not exhaustive.

I wish this newspaper ran fewer race-based stories, when it is imminently forseeable that these stories will elicit racially polarizing, insulting, unthoughtful comments from people across political/racial spectra. Such comments make me sad about what lurks in the hearts of too many in and about this great city.

Why does everything have to broken down by race in the South. Why can’t the story be about people, just people, going to the polls to vote. Unfortunately, it is the media that brings up race at every twist, turn, and corner.

Who cares about what race people are that goes to vote early. How about many Americans are voting early, and there are many new Americans that have registered? Geez!

As long as the “south is the south,” and the ignorants continue, race will be a factor in absolutely everything that “absolutely” doesn’t matter as long as we’re in the south.

You are exactly right. Dont white people do the same thing? So why is it so bad when we do it. You trust your own people so why cant we trust ours. It is the same thing you all have been doing for so many years. You vote for your own people regarless of what they do. Take Sarah Palin for instance….And if you want to be realistic about it you all are the ones who take a nobody and boost them up to be somebody even though they have no education, experience or even a clue to what is going on in this country. You do the math 5 different colleges just to complete a bachelors degree. If she were in competetion with a black lady who was highly educated you all would still vote for her just because she was white. Another thing is I cant even believe how stupid people are being the man is half black and half white anyway!!!!So I guess the white people are voting for him bc he is white and the black people are voting for him bc he is black.

Shucky Jive, you ignorant slut, Larry Sinclair is not a Chicago limo driver — look it up, creep. He is a penny ante crook living off the donations of people he doesn’t know — his words, not mine. He held a press conference back in June at the National Press Club to make his ridiculous claims and was arrested on several outstanding warrants at the end of his presentation. I think the last anyone heard of him, he was being led away by police. How unbelievable is Sinclair? Greta van Sustern wouldn’t even put him on Fixed Noise. How low are you for repeating such crap?

DaninMacon,

If you are commenting on voting trends, Blacks traditionaly are one of the Democrats strongest blocks getting anywhere from 85% to 95% of the vote in that segment. Black people are not voting for Barack simply because he is Black but also he is a Democrat and represents most of their ideal. Your argument would only hold true if Black people voted for Black Republicans in the same numbers, they don’t. If I am wrong, give me an example. I can’t think of one.

Dear Sambo,ShuckyJive,Bob and any other racist IDIOTS in Georgia,

Lets see how Racism Works,

What if John McCain were a former president of the Harvard Law Review? What if Barack Obama finished fifth from the bottom of his graduating class?

What if McCain were still married to the first woman he said ‘I do’ to? What if Obama were the candidate who left his first wife after she no longer measured up to his standards?

What if Michelle Obama were a wife who not only became addicted to pain killers, but acquired them illegally through her charitable organization? What if Cindy McCain graduated from Harvard?

What if Obama were a member of the Keating-5? What if McCain were a charismatic, eloquent speaker?

If these questions reflected reality, do you really believe the election numbers would be as close as they are?

This is what racism does. It covers up, rationalizes and minimizes positive qualities in one candidate and emphasizes negative qualities in another when there is a color difference.

You are The Boss… which team would you hire?

With America facing historic debt, 2 wars, stumbling health care, a weakened dollar, all-time high prison population, mortgage crises, bank foreclosures, etc.

Educational Background:

Obama: Columbia University - B.A. Political Science with a Specialization in International Relations. Harvard - Juris Doctor (J.D.) Magna Cum Laude

Biden: University of Delaware - B.A. in History and B.A. in Political Science. Syracuse University College of Law - Juris Doctor (J.D.)

vs.

McCain: United States Naval Academy - Class rank: 894 of 899

Palin: Hawaii Pacific University - 1 semester North Idaho College - 2 semesters - general study University of Idaho - 2 semesters - journalism Matanuska-Susitna College - 1 semester University of Idaho - 3 semesters - B.A. in Journalism

Now, which team are you going to hire ?

PS: What if Barack Obama had an unwed, pregnant teenage daughter?

Racists have a way of trying to make a good man look bad, and a bad man look good. You all should be ashamed!

“Sambo”: Since racism is, among other things, not only an expression of profound ignorance and a lack of a functioning ethical compass but also of a lack of self-awareness, let me translate your own thoughts for you: The fact that you talk about “all blacks” having the same opinion in this categorical way is not just ignorant, but racist. That you suggest that “blacks” (as you define them) would follow a Hitler is merely an expression of your sheer ignorance of history and of your deep-seated prejudices. And of course your puerile choice of the word “Sambo” as your online name is not just offensive but, again, racist. So let’s get it straight: Your ignorance of history and contemporary society in your post is matched only by the vicious inhumanity of something in your head and heart that helped you formulate that post. Consider going to counseling, and getting an education; there is enough hatred and bigotry in the world without you piling on.

Well, this one is going nowhere fast, but just for clarification. Blacks do traditionally vote Dem., that’s because most people vote by economics. The Dems. have traditionally supported programs that benefit middle/low income families, support initiatives for assistance in economically impoverished communities. Unfortunately, there are many Blacks that are in or have come from such communities where community organizers get their start. If one group tends to support you, and the other really could give a flying F%^k. Who would you support

Bob If ignorance is bliss, I guess you are feeling great today. Just vote Obama, no one will ever know, then when you leave, you can go back to being prejudice. The economy effects everybody, if you don’t have the cash, you can’t get a new clown (klan)suit…the inferiority complex of supremecist is rediculous.

Who is the best person to lead America, nationally and in the global world - regardless of race?

Look past race ” a conjured category, definition” and get to the real issues of this election and debate.

In psychology, cognitive dissonance is an uncomfortable feeling or stress caused by holding two contradictory ideas simultaneously. The theory of cognitive dissonance proposes that people have a fundamental cognitive drive to reduce this dissonance by modifying an existing belief, or rejecting one of the contradictory ideas.

Everyone is simply weak, afraid and scared of the unknown. Why can’t this country get past it’s race problems? The idea of America has always contained a dissonance philosophy……..

Why does that bother so many people. USH United States of Hypocrites!

“Land of the free, liberty & justice for all” despite slavery, segregation, Jim Crow, racial, sexual & gender discrimination.”

Simply, America is is worse shape nationally & globally now than in 2000. Face it the world is changing and the ego of the USA must be checked at our borders. Our nation is more divided now than ever and simply ignorance is on the rise!

Keep fighting over race, while our global competitors remain united with strong nationality. Perhaps if all American’s came together despite race, we will fulfill the oath “ONE NATION UNDER GOD”. Until then…our decline will continue. It is not even about race anymore, it is down to class and economic survival of the masses. Stop being ignorant people!

You are simply afraid…..just fear which has driven wars and of course inhumane treatment decade after decade.

America is sad and will fall if we do not resolve this very issue of coginitive dissonance which has resulted in rationalization of our negative actions as being patriotic vs. socialistic, oppressive globally damaging policies and practices.

Racist, separatist, elites, sexist you too are a mere pawn for the government. Stay distracted on race, materialism and isolated thinking - You will be the #1 contributor of America’s decline. God bless all of us!

Racist, separatist, elites, sexist you too are a mere pawn for the government. Stay distracted on race, materialism and isolated thinking - You will be the #1 contributor of America’s decline. God bless all of us!

Those are sorry excuses, and you know it. Palin is the most unqualified “redneck” ever to run for any office. Maybe she’s the terrorist with her gun collection. She sounds uneducated, and McCain is a total idiot for chosing her.

I’m a lifetime Republican who cannot in good conscience vote for an “old fart” and a young “fool.” The bigots and excuse makers who will try to put them in office, will be hurt the most because they are white trash and uneducated laborers hiding behind their KKK robes and hoods.

Souless/mindless people who through tradition carry these ignorant beliefs with them in politics, law, business, sports, education, and foreign policy. I agree the US is for sale by the people crying about senseless issues. America would not be America without the inclusion of African Americans.

Please listen to us. If you all continue to divide this country with ignorance and propaganda we’ll all be living in Osama Bin Laden Land. America’s debts are owned by the Chinese and Saudi Arabia now, so you’re barking up the wrong tree blaming blacks for the demise.

For all those on this site talking about “BLACKS” being thugs, violent, “they corrupt everthing they touch”, kil, and rob, and everything else your corrupt and desperately wicked minds can think of I say, look at the man in the mirror, take a look at your own selves. I haven’t heard a peep from you about the thugs, and thieves that are currently in white house. What is it about whites even though they see that their own are wrong they will still go along with him/her? But then want Blacks to turn their backs on their own before he/she even gets a chance to actually help? I have watched Bush and his cronies bring a nation to its knees through rampant corruptions, cronyism, bullying, and sheer ignorance. I look at mccain, and if he becomes president, we as a nation ain’t seen nothing yet! Mccain will be the end of the USA as we know it: and not just for Black people, but for everyone, and that includes whites too. Don’t think you all would escape in a mccain presidency. I watched sarah palin thursday night, and I must say, this woman is dangerous for this country at this time. Mccain and palin will be far worse than Bush could ever be on every level. So as I sit and think about this whole thing, I will proudly and unapologically cast my vote for BO/Biden this election, I have no party affiliation by choice as I don’t care for neither party, however I have voted republican in the past, but this time around I will vote for the ticket who I believe will be best for this country.

To all you who say Republicans are the problem, you are greatly misinformed.

Out of the last 38 sessions of congress, 28 were controlled by the Democrats. More recently, since the 2006 midterm elections where they have been the majority in the House of Representatives and the Democratic caucus (including two independents), constitute a majority in the United States Senate, hold a majority of state governorships, and control a plurality of state legislatures.

So who’s been running what here and have been causing our problems? Or do you not know what Congress does?

Republicans = What can we do for our Country?

Democrats = What can my country do for me?

It’s clear Obama supporters have no grasp of reality and truth. They’d support the same people who tanked the housing market and mortgage industry AND the same policy that keeps groceries and gas expensive.

PLEASE people. Don’t fall for the lies. Obama IS change…but change that finishes off the country. If he wins, anyone with money and any businesses with the ability to leave the US will do so. There will be no one to tax once the rest of the economy tanks.

Obama and Biden could not give ONE program they will have to cut because of this bailout. They are so afraid of admitting this they will never say waht bribing vote getting enslavement scheme they will have to cut. Read the fine print people. Obama’s policies are the same ones that gave us this mortgage crisis…thank him, Barney Frank, Maxine Waters, Chris Dodd, Franklin Raines, Jim Johnson, and Jamie Gorelick.

Experience isn’t going to be the issue this time and it shouldn’t be. Don’t forget that the man who won in 2004 had 4 years experience as president…and he had been the governor of the 2nd largest state in the nation…and his father had been the president before him. George W’s second term was arguably worse than his first. Therefore it’s time to quit arguing over who has the most experience. The real issue should be who has the most intelligence. When you look at it that way, there’s no contest. Obama is cool, thoughtful and well-spoken. McCain doesn’t come close. He rushed to Washington last week to help save the Wall Street fiasco and only made matters worse. His choice of Palin on the ticket does not show sound reasoning.

The thing I am concerned about is the people obama has surrounded himself with(JEREMIAH WRIGHT, TONY REZKO) and how the media is not reporting on this. If you want proof of his dealings with the known terrorist Tony Rezko just go to Wikipedia and look up him up,Barack Obama, Valerie Jarrett: Daily Times-Obama visits Pakistan in 1981; The Washinton Times-September 7, 2008: The Times- May 10, 2008. If you are open minded everyone and look at this and then take in consideration Jeremiah Wright and then Obamas illegal dealings with Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac and his interview with Stephonopolis when he slipped and sail his MUSLIM RELIGION instead of CHRISTIAN RELIGION. He didn’t wear his AMERICAN flagpin one day and then the next day he did. Remember the comment on our high gas prices”Make sure your tires are inflated because it can save up to 3% of our fuel”. The guy has no clue whether he is black, white, red or yellow on what he is doing or what he is saying. Nobody really knows his past because if they were open minded black, white, red or yellow you would not be voting for him. It was also with the other nights debate that Biden LIED 18 times and that was both of the political parties that noted that. How come our own AJC would not report any of this not report any of this. This will be the last time I get on this web site. With me being an AMERICAN I want to hear the whole truth about the person I am voting for whether they’re black, white, red or yellow.

He showed atrocious judgment, the thuggery aspect of his character and that he learned zip from the Keating affair. He has interfered with a State investigation and injected bitter D.C. politics in order to influence its outcome. This is the guy, who is saying that he is the one to change Washington. Fool me twice. It occurs to me that, if elected, they would further politicize the justice system on the order of Alberto Gonzales. The laws are something that others should follow, not them. With McCain, folks with “boots on the ground” in Iraq should be given deference. In Alaska, though, he just ran over State officials who have “boots on the ground” and knowledge of their own affairs. The Senate must DO ITS DUTY, investigate McCain and censure him if warranted. We are seeing a bad precedence being set. It should not be allowed to stand. McCain should not be allowed to inject Keating Six mentality and Third World thuggery into the government and politics of this country.

I am pleading with every one of you, who believe as I do that this is setting a bad precedence and smacks of thuggery to write to your elected officials demanding that McCain be investigated for his dealings in the local official affairs of the State of Alaska.

I didn’t vote for Barack Obama because of his skin color. I voted for him because of the change that will happen when he becomes president. You all know what our economy is at this time, whether you are black or white we all need that change. Lose the skin color. When you listen to Obama on the tv put on a blind fold and just listen to him. He is a man standing up for all people, but some people don’t want to vote for him because of his skin color. People I am not telling you who to vote for, but we all need a CHANGE!!

And by the way I am white and also an early voter!!

Obama could be Hitler himself; blacks would vote for him regardless. They don’t care who is good or bad. Just skin color. America blacks are the worst of the worst.”

Interesting…just like Germans voted for Hitler. Just like white people ROUTINELY vote for white people. Just like white people needed the intervention of the federal government to allow black people to even run for office or vote in the first place. So when black people try to put someone in office that looks like them…but when white people have done is for HUNDREDS of years that’s okay. When white people put Bush in office because they had an Affinity for him that wasn’t racist? Some of you OBVIOUSLY have no idea what true racism, and bigotry are. Also for the record. Black people aren’t voting for Obama just because he’s black… They are voting for him because of the same reason they voted for Kennedy, and Clinton. He represents our interests. If it were Ward Connerly or Clarence Thomas, I can guarantee you he’d get way more white votes than black votes.

The Obama gay thing is true I think. I have heard it for awhile. I used to live in Gary, IN and it has been following Obama since 1999. They have never been able to disprove the story and Obama did admit, off camera but you could clearly hear his voice, to meeting Mr. Sinclair alone in a hotel room. And it is common knowledge that Obama was using Crack right up until he ran for President.

Although I do think their input would be very helpful. Obama will win this election; although the republican attack dogs I here are out in force trying to disqualify all the Obama voters they can; it’s the only way McCain can win.

America is no longer a newborn, (revolutionary War), or a pre-pubescent, (Civil War), or an young adult, (WW2).

We have come of age. We are the NEW EMBRACERS. We embrace the world. We want equality for every living person on this planet.

So dont F with us.

Obama: He’s whats right 4 what’s left of America.

The rest of you haters can go f yourself. You can join us, but lose the hate. We can smell you. We outnumber you 100 to 1. You wont fair well couching hate. Trust us on THAT one.

Palin/McCain 08: It’s a good thing politics makes 4 strange bedfellows…how else could Palin and McCain find all the sleeper cells? That’s how dumb the Bush Base Evangelical Right Conservatives, who comprise 47% of this great country, R.

Interesting comments. I remember my Pastor telling us once (and this was long before the Presidential election/ Obama came along) that you should always vote on issues and NOT on skin color and I couldn’t agree more.

I can’t honestly say that Obama was my choice early on in the campaign when there was still a pool of Dem. candidates to choose from. The fact is that yes, there are those of us that will vote for him simply because he is black and that’s the way that we normally vote (Democratic).

And yes, there are those of our white counterparts that will vote for McCain simply because he is white and yes, because they only vote Republican. I know that I have seen A LOT of individuals on the Marta trains and at the grocery store asking “are you a registered voter” and based on the article below and from what I have heard on the news there has been a surge in black voter registration.

My prayer for all of my black brothers and sisters is that we are voting on issues and with the right intentions and not because we feel that Obama will be some Black Messiah. The issues that are facing US today and within our communities will be the same issues facing us after November 4th no matter who gets the WH. Real change has to begin within each individual and their individual families and communities before it can happen on a national level.

The Obama gay sex drug story is true. The limo driver dropped him off at a bar he had a few drinks, got in the car and told the drive to take him to the south side. He ask the limo to stop handed him money for crack and powder cocaine. They then drove off, parked and began using. Later that same night, while coked to the gills Obama and the driver engaged in sexual congress. They then met later in a hotel and did the same thing again. this story has been around Chicago for along time. It has never been seriously knocked down.

Of course, would he need help paying for his medical bills if Insurance Companies were not charging such ridiculous rates?

Of course I imagine you blame that on democrats too.

Once again, just providing info. I’m a little confused. Let me see if I have this straight.

If you grow up in Hawaii, raised by your grandparents, you’re exotic, different. Grow up in Alaska eating mooseburgers, a quintessential an American story.

If your name is Barack you’re radical, unpatriotic Muslim. Name your kids Willow, Trig and Track; you’re a maverick.

Graduate from Harvard Law School and you are unstable. Attend 5 different small colleges before graduating, you’re well grounded.

If you spend 3 years as a brilliant community organizer, become the first black President of the Harvard Law Review, create a voter registration drive that registers 150,000 new voters, spend 12 years as a Constitutional Law professor, spend 8 years as a State Senator representing a district with over 750,000 people, become chairman of the states Senate representing over 13 million people while sponsoring 131 bills and serving on the Foreign Affairs, Environment and Public Works and Veteran’s Affairs committees, you don’t have any real leadership experience.

If your total resume is: local weather girl, 4 years on the city council and 6 years as the mayor of a town with less than 7,000 people, 20 months as the governor as a state with only 660,000 people, then you are qualified to become the country’s second highest ranking executive.

If you have been married to the same woman for 19 years while raising 2 beautiful daughters, all within Protestant churches, you’re not a real Christian.

If you cheated with your first wife with a rich heiress, and left your disfigured wife and married the heiress the next month, you’re a Christian.

If you teach responsible age appropriate sex education, including the proper use of birth control, you are eroding the fiber of society.

If, while governor, you staunchly advocate abstinence only, with no other option in sex education in your state’s school system while your unwed teen daughter ends up pregnant, you’re very responsible.

If your wife is a Harvard graduate lawyer who gave up a position in a prestigious law firm to work for the betterment of her inner city community, then gave that up to raise a family, your family’s values don’t represent America’s.

If your husband is nicknamed “First Dude”; with at least one DWI and no college education; who didn’t register to vote until age 25 and once a member of a group that advocated the secession of Alaska from the USA , your family is extremely admirable.

OK, much clearer now.

FYI this shows how ignorant the public is. Just because the cover looks good, when you look down deep it isn’t. This guy admitted in his book to be a cocaine drug user. His grandmother was the VP of a Bank in Hawaii so he did not have humble means. He did have 150,000 people register but a baboon could do that on the South side of Chicago especially when they get paid to register. Do some investigation on Barack’s organizations, good grief, its in the Chicago paper about this guy.

Barack wanted political power so he mingled and did the right things to get this power. He met his wife and somehow her pay increased $200K while working for a non-profit organization.

He has ties to a man that will go to jail for fraud.

He has ties to the former Fannie Mae executive the cooked the books that is now the guy advised Barack on his VP pick.

Jethro,

Oh I’ve investigated Barack, and he’s no saint. But compared to “I’ve never met a Lobbyist I don’t like McCain” I think he’s rather squeaky clean.

You don’t like Obama because A) He’s Black B) You think he will raise your taxes (As compared to just borrow more and make you pay feudal tithing to China when they bankrupt us) or C) You like to pretend you are patriotic and superior and regard liberals as less than human. Or D)All of the above.

And Palin? Don’t even get me started about Palin. Anyone who attacks Barack Obama without attacking Palin is just a freaking liar. The truth is, that Palin is a sociopath Hockey Mask Mom who likes to shoot wolves from helicopters. Think I’m making it up? Google it.

And finally, making fun of illiterate white people on a blog is kind of redundant, isn’t it? Unless you’re assuming that they have machines that read the text for them.

Now calling them IGNORANT, that’s just fine.

Given America’s distress economy, I will vote for ET if he could move the country forward. Small minded people still make this a racial issues rather than the candidates’stance of important issues. Sadly, there are many whites who do not believe in McCain’s policy but would rather vote him in -continue to suffer economically - in than vote for a black person as commander in chief. That just proves how people allows hate, ignorant, and pride to vote themselves into harms way. Wait up, people. This is not a black or white issue. This is a survival issue. We are in the same boat and narrow minded people needs to grow up quickly and do what is best to move this country forward in regards to health care, education, energy etc. Obama is far more in touch with the stress and strain of average Americans than McCain would ever be.

Do you honestly think it isn’t about race?Then why did the BLACK CAUCUS practically threaten to end the political career of John Lewis when he was backing Hillary instead of Barack? GOTZ to support a brotha’,even if you don’t have a clue what he is really about or what his views or stance is on any given topic? Do you think it’s not about race when rappers liks Ludacris talks about painting the WHITE HOUSE black?As obviously,it was only painted white to constanly be a reminder that only whites can earn money playing sports,singing(rapping)directing movies,becoming a doctor,lawyer,political leader,etc… Do you think if you,as a black voter can support a brotha an elect him to the highest office in our land,that some how those reparations that you think you are entitled to will become a reality? That already has happened unless you were one of the few that didn’t get a $300K NINJA on a $30k or less?If you think this election isn’t about race,you are only fooling yourself!Voting for Obama is your right!But for you to only do it because you want to help a brotha out is just as racist as me not voting for him only because of the color of his skin.Mr.Smith Goes to Washingtion proves that even with the best intentions the political machine that is Washingtion DC will chew you up and spit out!You don’t get anything without giving up something,and with most it is their SOUL!!

Since this country was built by a diverse groups British, Chinese, Irish-Americans, and African-American, one would think we would be more culturally sensitive. All of these groups have different faith. With that said, why must the Bible be the only religious book one can use to be sworn in. Uneducated or unread people believes Muslim is synomous with terrorism or extremist. Let’s think outside the box for a moment: Many past presidents have used the Bible to be sworn into office and their morally and spritually have been questioned. Richard Nixon Watergate Scandal (morally corrupt); John Kennedy - adultery (spritually corrupt); Thomas Jeffeson - owner of slaves (morally and spritually corrput); Lyndon Johnson - personnaly corrupt; Clinton - adultery. Point, placing hand on the Bible maybe symbolic or traditional. Perhaps there were principles in Koran that Senator Obama adheres to. As the world shrinks, we must become a more inclusive nation. The premise of most religions is to adhere to a loving, unselfish lifestyle.

And you might want to include John McCain’t in that scandal too since he was intimately involved in the Keating 5 Savings and Loan scandal from the ’80s. Or maybe some of you are too racist to let your pea brains recall that far back. The failure of America as we know it right now is not being caused by blacks.

CHANGE IS COMMING. According to population data, in about 40 years from now, whites would be in the minority. We have a president who we all know is not very bright and I suspect that if he were black, he wouldn’t even get anywhere near the white house. Now comes Sarah Palin, who in my opinion, does not have the intellect and qualification to be vice president. If she were black she would have a hard time gaining a job as a convenient store manager. But there she is running as McCain’s vice-president. The skin color of the majority in this country has allowed a lot of incompetent people to get into positions where they are absolutely not qualified to be in. As the demographics change in this country, we would have a diverse talent pool to draw from and just being white wouldn’t be sufficient qualification.

I’m not a democrat, or republican. I was hoping for Hillary to clean up this bush’s mess, much like bill did after the first one. Obama should have picked her for VP, but I still think him and Joe would do a better job then McCain/Palin. People should vote based on how they agree with a candidate, not what the candidate looks like. And Palin needs to stop making stupid comments, like saying she thinks global warming is not because of humans. It’s things like that which make me believe her and McCain really aren’t going to change things all that much.

For many white bloggers you need to speak for yourself and not blacks. You don’t know who anyone is going to vote for. Yes I’m black, I’ve had time to learn in this years debates about Obama. I already know about Biden. And these two I like what I’m hearing and what I’m seeing. McCain is too old and war beaten and may die soon, OK??? Now about Palin, who in the hell is she??? I heard both conventions and am only seeing her for the first time and you think I should vote for her in less than two months time???? You have got to be tripping. I have not had enough time to learn anything about Palin. Yes, all of these names mentioned on both sides are lying about something. And some truths are being told as well. Now blacks have voted for Presidents for over 100 years. What Color have these guys been??? Are we doing better as a nation??? Some, and I do mean some of you blogging just won’t vote for Obama unless he was pure white and that’s a Damn shame. You won’t vote for a black man if he saved your life by CPR. I would’nt be surprised if someone as usual tricks the voters and puts McCain in there like Bush stole it over Gore. “”“”Obama/ Biden “”“”“”” Stop the hate…. or die trying to hate,,, running into the wrong person that is. I love everyone without shame or fear.

Atlanta, GA, a part of the south that was significant in the Civil Rights Movement and it still has some racist morons and idiots!!

To all of you I say LOSERS!

This is 2008 and America is coming to the end of an 8 year disaster. Barack Obama is going to be the next President of teh United States and he is the best man for the job - period, end of story!

Taking over this mess is a daunting task and a 72 year old ‘has been’ is not the answer and one who pushed the Bush Agenda for 8 years —- John McCain is part of America’s woes!

Retirement is where McCain should be going and after he loses he needs to consider sitting back in a rocking chair at one of his 9 homes and enjoy the rest of his life!

I don’t think it’s racist at all. As human beings, we are going to vote for who we feel most comfortable with. Soccer moms, hockey moms, whatever moms…a good portion of them feel more comfortable with Palin and they can relate to her, so naturally they’re going to vote for her. Most black people feel that they can relate with Obama more than McCain or Palin, so naturally they’re going to vote for the candidate they’re are most comfortable with. If Obama was white, I’m pretty sure most of them would overwhelmingly vote for him than McCain. Now the few blacks that are republican party members or feel they can relate with McCain more than Obama, naturally they will for McCain. If you’re a Democrat party member black or white and feel comfortable with Obama, naturally you’re going to vote for him and vice verse for the Republican party. For a black person call a person of another race, racist for not voting for Obama, that’s just racist. But when people in West Va. say they’re not voting for Obama just because he’s black, that’s just as racist as well.

sambo, thank you for clearing up some confusion for me. My dog’s name is Sam and I call him sambo. A friend of mine (black) said, ” No you didn’t” when I called Sambo, to get my dog to come to me. I said, “What?” She just shook her head and laughed. I was confused but thought no more about it until I read your post. i googled “Sambo” and found out it is some kind of “racial slur.” I wasn’t aware of that since I have a cousin (lilly white) called Sambo, as well as once who goes by Jimbo (I wonder if they know they are “racists”?)

SO you wonder the point of this 249 posts later? I read your post and then your name and it didn’t take a rocket scientist to see that somehow you were using the name sambo in a derogatory way.

Just damn, should I now tell my cousin he has to change his name? Can someone send me an official list of ALL the “racist’ names because I just can’t seem to keep track of them all.

Oh, and as to Barak Bin Obama? I don’t care if black people register to vote for him just because he is black, at LEAST they are voting. I’m white and I’M voting for Barak.

Education and experience do not necessarily a good leader make. And though most liberals won’t believe this, it’s not always about color. Most people who support Republicans over Democrats do so out of concern for our country. Don’t be deceived. You who want the Democrats to win, please do your homework - the social and economic engineering of many of those in the Democratic party have led our country down a path to ruin. Morally and economically, we have fallen far off the mark for the great country we should have remained. Even now, it may be too late to turn the tide. We must look beyond our individual differences and choose what is best for our country. Otherwise, our individual differences will lead to our collective ruin.

People have it wrong, if you look at history, Blacks voted for the Republican party until the 1930’s when FDR made many promises but never delivered. The Republican party was established to abolish slavery not the Democratic party. The Democratic party is why Blacks struggles for 100 years after the end of slavery but after the 1964 civil rights legislation, which was passed with the help of Republicans, the majority of Southern Democrats voted against it; Blacks started voting Democratic because the Democrats fooled the fools into thinking they were their partner. Lester Maddox was a Democrat and segregationist along with Bull Connor.

These people are sheep that follow anything published by the Democrats and do not do their research. After the civil rights passage, the Democrats established policies which destroyed the Black family, single woman with children inceased and now single women head the black family 70%. Let them keep doing what they are doing and support the Democrats 90% Soon they will not be a problem to anybody.

**In 1961, Robert F. Kennedy predicted that the country could elect a black president in the next 40 years. (google it if you don’t believe it). Like his brother JFK, a visionary, RFK knew that the country race relations were changing. RFK, like MLK and many others, could envision US, inspite of its embarassing and deplorable racist laws, would one day have a leader that was based on merit, intergity and not priviledge. There are many who so embedded in white priviledge that idea of black leadership brings out the hate not the logic, which they are suggesting. One thing is for sure, whethere you are ebony or ivory and is middle and/or lower class, we are in the same boat. McCain is for the rich and powerful. The only contact he has ever had with averagage American is while campaigning. I would bet that Obama still knows some poor people. I would even guess he and MIchelle still visit families of modest means. I bet McCain has never been in the home of an improvished family. Therefore, he is too removed from main street America to understand their problems. He is surrounded by advisors, Obama had advisors and the personal connection to the people to hear and understand their fears.

Barak Obama.

No record of accomplishment, no record of success, no demonstrated ability to deliver, no record of public service, questionable personal associations, personally and through his campaign participated with the DNC in deleting the sacred votes by millions of Americans in Michigan and Florida, stole delegates in the primaries. No scruples and illegitimate. Voted “present” over 100 times in the Illinois legislature. Lazy. He has backtracked on just about everything he has campaigned on. He will say anything to get elected including playing the race card.

He is Completely and utterly unqualified and he is no Democrat.

This is a one-way ticket to the third world. Think before you vote - before it’s too late. At least vote in you own best interest.

I’d like to know when SNL is going to get around to slamming Obama for his faults and deficiencies. There are plenty to choose from (57 states, Michonians…I’m guessing he meant people from Michigan…Reznik, Wright, ACORN, Ayers). I’m afraid in the effort to be politically correct, we’ll never see these and if we do, the Obama camp will launch an all out attack at the racists at SNL who dare to criticize the Messiah. With tens of thousands of people showing up at rallies (according Obama’s numbers) and the media becoming completely orgasmic at the mere mentioning of his name, you’d think he’d be running away with this election. The only numbers that matter are the ones that result from actual votes. Instead of focusing on every tiny detail of Palin’s life, it would be nice to see the media focus on things like the corrupt activities of Obama’s friends at ACORN.

Example, it is a very well known fact that the Bush administration assisted Osama Bin Ladin family quickly and quietly leave the US in fear of their lives. By your argument, is Bush a Muslim sympathizer. Is he a terrorist?

Obviously, some people will go to any measures to defame someone’s character. I do not believe Obama is gay and, like Cindy McCain, and Betty Ford, he has admitted to using substance. Now on the argument of being gay, let’s talk about U.S. gay (or rummored to be) presidents. FACT: It has always been rumored that Lincoln was bisexual.It has been historically written that he shared a bed with a man for four years. President Buchanan lived with another man, William King. King was often referred as “Miss Nancy” and President Buchanan as William King “better half.” By the way Buchanan is the only US President who never married. Side Bar Fact: Edgar Hoover was gay and a cross-dresser. Therefore, if the attempt to defame Obama by questioning his sexuality or drug use, then in all fairness address the others. Lincoln, Buchannan, and Hoovers sexaulity and how that impacted their duties. Clinton admitted to using pot, Arnold Schwaggner, Betty Ford, and Cindy McCain stole and used from her own company. If these people discretions are not important, than why slander Obama. Know your history before attempting intelligence.

On imprisonment: If the country allowed Nixon the option to resign due to Watergater, Clinton for lying, and Bush offenses were reason for impeachment (lying to Americans and falsifying documents). Surely, a MAN of intergity like Obama will escape the discreations of past presidents.

Barack Obama will be the next Kwame Kilpatrck or Marion Berry.

Black Democrats have historically shown, and continue to show, they cannot behave themselves in positions of power.

Obama WILL be the first sitting President of the United States to ever be sentenced to prison.

This message is for sambo. Ignorance is bliss. I am an educated, professional black women and I know that McCain would do nothing but destroy this country more than Bush already has. I have many, many, many caucasion friends that are flocking to the polls and voting for Obama. They have even said out of their mouths that some white people can be very senseless. McCain is a hundred years old and every other week he is having basal cell carcinoma removed from his face and has even admitted that he doesn’t know how to use a computer. Palin doesn’t even know what the Bush Doctrine is. Two of the smartest people to run this country RIGHT.

Do your history. Many things that whites use and can’t do without today, the black man invented. With that said I am sure that OBAMA is capable of running this country an running it well. After Bush my 9 year old daughter can run this country. OBAMA will be our next president, so get over your racist self. Worst of the worst huh. Well a white person like you would rather live in a box and eat dog food before you accept that times have changed. I will pray for you.

I find it amusing that racist Georgians (and yes, you are racist if you say The Civil War was caused by Economics not slavery) complain about Black people voting for Marion Barry.

How many of you voted for Bush in 2004?

Obama is a “Marxist” huh?

And Mike you also “believe” they story?

Well you both believe in whatever fairy tales are told to you by your leaders. THAT is why you attack the mainstream media, but you don’t even believe FOX NEWS which hasn’t reported that story either.

And THEY don’t call him a Marxist.

No, what you believe is the random emails that your friends send you.

Well here is the problem with that…what if we knew that you believed whatever emails were sent to you, and deliberately made one up and got it virally sent around? What if we had a secret tape that we planned to release that it wasn’t true and that it was a test to see who was willing to believe whatever random things were sent out?

How would you know? Since you never bother to find out anything but what emails your buddies tell you, or at best maybe the Drudge report, and Drudge reports anything sent to him, if there was a trap, you’d be totally hosed.

Not that you’d care, but I imagine there ARE still a few Republicans that do care about the truth.

Just a few.

**Follow up to why some veterans will not vote for McCain. Devvy

August 29, 2004

NewsWithViews.com

McCain continuously violates the Code of Conduct

In direct violation of the Code of Conduct, McCain, who was supposedly in solitary confinement, met with and was interviewed by several foreign news reporters and political delegations, including many high-ranking North Vietnamese leaders, such as Gen. Vo Nguyen Giap, North Vietnam’s Minister of Defense and national hero.

Through the Freedom of Information Act, the U.S. Veteran Dispatch acquired a declassified Department of Defense (DOD) transcript of an interview prominent French television reporter Francois Chalais had with McCain.

Chalais told of his private interview with POW McCain in a series titled “Life in Hanoi”, which was aired in Europe. In the series, Chalais said his meeting with McCain was “a meeting which will leave its mark on my life.”

“My meeting with John Sidney McCain was certainly one of those meetings which will affect me most profoundly for the rest of my life. I had asked the North Vietnamese authorities to allow me to personally interrogate an American Prisoners. They authorized me to do so. When night fell, they took me —- without any precautions or mystery —- to a hospital near the Gia Lam airport reserved for the military (passage omitted). The officer who receives me begins: “I ask you not to ask any questions of political nature. If this man replies in a way unfavorable to us, they will not hesitate to speak of `brainwashing’ and conclude that we threatened him.

“This John McCain is not an ordinary prisoner. His father is none other than Admiral Edmond John McCain, commander in chief of U.S. Naval forces in Europe. (passage omitted).

Another declassified DOD document reports an interview between POW McCain and Dr. Fernando Barral, a Spanish psychiatrist who was living in Cuba at the time. The interview was published in the Havana Gramma in January 1970.

According to the DOD report, the meeting between Barral and McCain took place away from the prison at the office of the Committee for Foreign Cultural Relations in Hanoi. During that interview, POW McCain sipped coffee and ate oranges and cakes with his interrogator.

During that interview, McCain again seriously violated the Code of Conduct by failing to “evade answering questions” to the “utmost” of his ability when he, according to the DOD report, helped Barral by answering questions in Spanish, a language McCain had learned in school.

On Dec. 7, 1969, McCain was moved out of isolation and into the “Hanoi Hilton” with other prisoners of war.

McCain is Hanoi’s leading advocate

Today, McCain, who claims he was brutally tortured by the Communist Vietnamese, focally emerged as Hanoi’s leading advocate for normalized relations with the United States.

McCain’s high-profile and unrelenting support for a government that brutally tortured and murdered his fellow POWs is causing POW/MIA Family members and fellow Vietnam veterans to question the senator and his motivations.

They ask what drives McCain, who owes his public life to the tag “former POW,” to work so hard for Hanoi and so diligently to discredit any possibility, in fact the probability, that Hanoi held back live U.S. prisoners of war after the 1973 prisoner release.

How come no one questiones the fact that many Hilary Clinton voters may have voted for her, based on the fact that she is a woman? don’t many white people vote based on race? How can anyone explain the fact that George Bush’s best friend is even in the running with Obama? A party that has destroyed all that america values, is still even in the running? Many countires laugh at the fact that we pretend racism doesn’t exist, and then despite what bush has done, we even consider electing his best friend, come on, we will have more of the same politics. and I pray that we will elect Obama( Obama can not get every vote, no president can or will) but those that will support him, let’s do it…there’s nothing to stop us…let’s finally stand as one..thank you.

This black/white issue was one thing Obama specifically said we need to overcome to conquer the problems this country has. He didn’t ask to be born any color - just like none of the contributors to these comments asked for their color. Get over the obstacle folks. People are people.

October 5, 2008 1:49 PM | Link to this

Over 85% of white Mississippians voted for George Bush in 2004. In Georgia 78% of white voters voted for W. If you take out metro Atlanta white voters have virutally the same block voting behavior as white people in Mississippi, Alabama and South Carolina. African Americans are not only group in America that tend to block vote. We have millions of people in Georgia who vote Republican if a the candidate says three symbolic things that don’t have any affect their everyday lives.

It’s fair to say African American block vote, but the very people in this board who criticise this block voting are part of group that block votes.

BTW, In the 40% of African American households that make over 50,000 a year Republicans don’t fair much better than with African Americans who are on food stamps.

BTW, In the 16% of African American households that make over 80,000 a year Republicans aren’t making much of dent.

The reason for this is the IGNORANT rants that you all though this board. The African American community is divided on social issues, immigration issues and attends Church at higher rate than most Americans. Take away Obama’s historic candidacy Republicans should do better with blacks.

All I can say to all of the Neil Boortz wannabees on this board is keep doing what you’re doing. You’re helping to keep middle class and socially conservative African Americans in the Democratic camp for years to come.

Get over yourself, I am a black woman who makes over $100K a year (and I did it the right way by becoming well educated), and not looking for food stamps or a social program to keep from working. I am a very conservative Democrat, and at times do not agree with a lot of the ideals of Democrats in Washington, however, I’m smart enough to know that the GOP has done an excellent job in taking this country to the pot, and I don’t want four more or maybe even 8 more years of that. And for once if the GOP could actually muster an ounce of truth, I might could be convinced to switch parties, but I can’t deal with the perceived hatred that seems to run rampant in that party towards other minorities whether it be blacks, hispanics, asians, or otherwise. The GOP strike me as a party of total intolerance, and that’s why I could never be a Republican until it became the party of Lincoln again.

95 percent of blacks are voting for Obama because he is black? Tell me where you are getting these racist facts. If you want someone to take you serious then prove this is a fact.

Also, one of you racists prove the only reason blacks vote democrat is because of goverment handouts. Last i checked whites make up the majority of the welfare rolls.

Obamalamadingdong is gonna lose because lots of white democrats tell pollsters that they’ll vote for him and will actually vote for McCain when they are alone in the voting booth.

I am a 25 year Democrat who was thrown under the bus by a vicious, illegal, and dirty campaign directed by the DNC and the Obama campaign against Hillary Clinton who has done much more for middle class/working class/Black Americans in 30 years of public service than Obama could ever imagine even if he gave a damn. All I care about is the Constitution, the Bill of Rights and the Rule of Law. Just understand that Obama is extremely dangerous. I am willing to live with a divided government for four years with McCaine than rubber stamp what he and the DNC have done to the party of FDR. Take care.

Ask most white americans who support Mcsame and they can’t state the issues either. Trust me i debate this with republicans all the time. He nor his running mate have ever revealed their plan fully. Just a bunch of smokescreens and strawman arguments.

All this really boils down to is some white people will not vote for Obama because of his skin color. It’s as plain and simple as that. They would rather this country continue to go down the tubes than letting something like that happening in their lifetime. It really has nothing to do with any political issues but rather just their own personal issues.

That in itself is un-patriotic and it also represents treason.

The “I don’t want big goverment” argument makes no sense. We already have big goverment. Mcsame will not change that. HOW? That’s another coded argument to make one sound intelligent.

Let me educate you on the Big Gov’t deal.

That’s Right, we do not want Gov’t to contiune to grow like Obama is proposing with Nationalized Health Care, along with a Socialist type of Government, and the Hate America crowd that he hangs with (Wright & Ayers).

Therefore, just so you know, the house is now controlled by the Democrats and they have a lower approval rating than the President and you want to put two more in control of our security and our country?

By the way, Obama also profited from the Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac campagin donations that he received, so why are you not upset about that?

I’ll tell you why: You Sir are Racist,& Ingorant - and anyone who supports this guy is as well!

None of you knew anything about this guy before he was nominated to run on the Dem ticket - except he is Black and now all of the Blacks are now coming out of the woodwork with that Tom Joiner (racist crowd)to vote for him along with that flip-flopper loser Biden who is another one who has done NOTHING for Blacks as well as anyone else.

Same ole playbook from the Dems: Middle class, Healthcare, blame America, and the like.

Do us all a favor and don’t vote since you have no idea what and whom you are voting for!

Sambo, Your comment is a racist one and untrue. I know plenty of African Americans that are not voting for Obama. Besides the only reason you’re not voting for Barack Obama is because he is a black man. Most white’s won’t vote for him just because he’s black despite his mother was a white woman, and he is the next new face for change. He is for the middle class and not for the rich to keep getting richer but for the lower class to have more. This country hasn’t grown as far as I’m concern when it comes down to white and black. White people are the most racist n**** in the world afraid of change and scared to admit that African American’s are far better at everything human’s do. The only reason they don’t exceed in life is because we as white people has failed to let them grows and we have made the country all about us. We bring them over to America and then we make the believe that they are less than human. We make them live like animals We haven’t equipped them with the tools many of them go straight from school to prison because of the conditions of the inner city school. We have stated of the art schools while they have schools that are falling apart, no running water, no books, holes in the ceiling, no swimming pool, no art classes, and no after school programs. We have it made compared to what we give them. You should use your vice to change the situation for the nation not spew your hatred in this forum.

Everyone! I think the southern states…blacks and whites…need to get over themselves. SOME blacks and whites in Georgia are the biggest racist that I have ever seen. We need to focus on the fact that the country is in a mess. If a black man, white man, or purple man can fix the problem—fix it!!! It is time to move forward. People vote for people that they can relate to. If McCain is the person that you can relate to then vote for him. If Obama is the one you can relate to, vote for him. Some people are voting for Obama because he is black. Some are voting for McCain because he is white. However, I caution people on that…you may find yourself voting for political views you disagree on. We are a state divided by color and a 1950’s mentality. Blacks and whites need to stop the name calling and find solutions to the deep hatred that some harbor towards one another. If this is offensive to anyone, no harm is intended because the truth only hurts the guilty. Gas does not impact one race, it affects us all. Job loss affects us all. The war affects us all. Pollution affects us all. Contribute to making Georgia a great place to live and not state known for racial divide, pollution, crime, and corruption.

This election has been stolen by the far left and black churches (ACORN) and political groups. Look at Ohio and what the over-the-top Obama supporting Secretary of State of Ohio did. She bent the law to allow for same day voter registaration and voting. That’s a nightmare in the making. Fox is the only news station convering this story. The cameras show people wearing Obama tee shirts driving homeless people to the polls to vote. This election is a farce but hey..it’s the only way Obama can be elected. Next Obama will gather the Black Political Causus together to assure them the tax payer will pay a portion of all black defaulted loans. We’re in a heap of trouble in this country. My home is paid for; I am a retired military officer with a pension plan close to six figures yearly for the rest of my life on earth so I say all you idiots out there…pizz away your worthlkess futures and your 401K plans, see if I care.

Funny, all the white people I know are voting for Obama. But then, all my friends are smart enough to read the Constitution and the writing on the wall.

By the way, for the guy talking about the murder rate in Montana….their population is less than a million, and their murder rate in 2005 was 18. Atlanta, with a population of two million in the same time period had 21 murders.

So apparently Montana has about twice the per capita murder rate of Atlanta. But you know how those white people are…..belligerent, and impulsive, and they like their guns. And don’t forget self-righteous. They aren’t too good with math, either. Except for me, apparently.

Y’all need to find a way to engage your brain before you open your mouth or hit the “send” key. Barack Obama is not your typical anything, and that’s a GOOD thing. We need an extraordinary person in the White House, because things are in a mess. It’s going to be a horrible job I wouldn’t wish on anyone, but for purely selfish reasons I would far rather have the guy who went to Harvard on a scholarship and graduated with honors trying to figure out how to deal with the situation. We need some competence and credibility in the White House, and McCain, despite the hype, has always been mediocre and on the take.

Anyone who thinks John McCain is the best candidate should read the cover story in the upcoming issue of Rolling Stone, “Make-Believe Maverick A closer look at the life and career of John McCain reveals a disturbing record of recklessness and dishonesty.” The link to it is: http://www.rollingstone.com/news/coverstory/makebelievemavericktherealjohnmccain From the article: “In its broad strokes, McCain’s life story is oddly similar to that of the current occupant of the White House. John Sidney McCain III and George Walker Bush both represent the third generation of American dynasties. Both were born into positions of privilege against which they rebelled into mediocrity. Both developed an uncanny social intelligence that allowed them to skate by with a minimum of mental exertion. Both struggled with booze and loutish behavior. At each step, with the aid of their fathers’ powerful friends, both failed upward.”

I went to an Ivy League school, but I came from a small poor town in Mississippi and education is the key for me, but here is GA, these kids are just hereditarily dumb, mostly white kids. Most racist have sub-par education, live very close to the poverty line, and are on welfare.

As an African American from the great state of Virginia, I just want to say that Georgia has a mighty long way to go when it comes to race relations. The comments I am reading are extremely troubling. I would not dare raise my children in Georgia and I pray that race relations in Georgia improve. This past Saturday, Barack Obama spoke in my hometown of Newport News VA and the turnout was overwhelming with a broad support from whites and blacks. The voters in VA have gone beyond race and will make history by electing Barack Obama as President!!

Just Because He’s Black

A white man asked his black friend, ‘Are you voting for Barack Obama just because he’s black?’

The black man responded by saying, ‘Why not? Hell, in this country men are pulled over everyday just cause they’re black; passed over for promotions just cause they’re black; considered to be criminals just cause they’re black; and there are going to be thousands of you who won’t be voting for him just because he’s black! However, you do not seem to have a problem with that! This country was built with the sweat and whip off the black slaves’ back, and now a descendent of those same slaves has a chance to lead the same country, where we weren’t even considered to be people, where we weren’t allowed to be educated, drink from the same water fountains, eat in the same restaurants, or even vote. So yes! I’m going to vote for him! But it’s not just because he’s black, but because he is hope, he is change, and he now allows me to understand when my grandson says that he wants to be president when he grows up, it is not a fairy tale but a short term goal. He now sees, understands and knows that he can achieve, withstand and do

ANYTHING just because he’s black!’

….Sorry Lacy, I apologize.

You are definitely not Morph.

You’re slightly incoherent, but your heart is indeed in the right place and I do believe you’re voting for him for the right reason.

And you’re right. White people who think Black people will vote for Obama just because he’s Black and not because say…he’s not a Communist Republican….are racist.

There are white racists, black racists, asian racists, latin racists and indian and hawain racists, but on this board, the vast majority of them have been white racists.

And they are pathetic.

Dear “Sambo” (not hiding your bigotry with that name now are you?)

Let me ask you, if what you claim is true, why then didn’t Alan Keyes do better?

And your “point” about Hitler ignores the fact that Hitler rose to power as a white supremacist whose genocidal mission is still praised by scary people like David Duke.

And guess what? A whole lot of white racists in Louisiana voted Duke into public office.

I would say the “worst of the worst” is when people like you assume that all people who fall into one category, be it race or gender or religion, are all alike, and all worthless.

In fact, it is your view that is completely single-minded and incomprehensibe.

Perhaps you should reexamine your beliefs before you express such trash to everyone trying to read the news.

We also had the first tragic attack on America soil by an American called the Oklahoma City bombing and that perpetrator was a white man named Timothy McVeigh and the people who suffered were Americans of all colors.

Sambo…ignorance is bliss. As a Obama/Biden supporter it is not about his race, but it is about the issues and his character. As an African- American, I am offended that you think that we would vote for someone just because of their race. If that was true, why would we even bother to vote in other elections when we are not represented at all? Why are so many whites supporting him …because it is about the issues. I sure hope you don’t believe that Sarah Palin is even close to being qualified as VP. She is a farce. She is only on the Republican ticket because Obama did not chose Hillary. So will all women vote for her because she is a women? I don’t think so. SO cure your ignorance by swallowing this pill… WE, Americans, are voting for him because of the issues and his character.

I would like to know how Christians who happen to be politicians can reconcile with God all the lies and embellishments that they spread just to win an election? Does being a Christian become less important on the campaign trail than winning? Is living a life that is selfless and righteous surpassed by a sound byte and a hope to win voters even at anothers expense? Is it okay to lie when the Bible clearly states that lying (a lying tongue) is one of the seven things that God clearly despises?

Proverbs 6:16-19 Seven things hated by the Lord haughty eyes, a lying tongue, hands that shed innocent blood, a heart that devises wicked schemes, feet that are quick to rush in to evil, a false witness who pours out lies, and a man who stirs up dissension among brothers

Obama is experienced as well, but of course he does not have the same background as McCain but if Feel that this man can really do this. I grew up in a family where my family was racist towards blacks and it really confused me throughtout my life. People do not realize that the line has to be drawn somewhere. We white americans have not liked blacks for yrs now and ok some people never change reguardless of what the century is or what their views are towards blacks. Blacks have the right to do just as what everybody else in this country is doing. I feel that this is payback and they can have their time. Reguardless if OBAMA is black, he is a much younger, optomistic opponent for this presidential race. White Americans get over it We Need A change.. OBAMA WILL BE PRESIDENT ON NOVEMBER 4th..

What about whites not voting for him because he’s black or whites voting for McCain because he’s white even though they don’t know what he stands for. Can we say Keating 5 that same issue that we’re facing now with the mortgage industry. Can we say supported Bush over 90% of the time or the fact that he’s still honoring the same Bush tax plans that doesn’t work. A person that so endorsed deregulation that is causing us issues right now. Maybe we can discuss his integrity for forcing his disfigured wife to divorce to marry his mistress the following month. That mistress(well now 2nd wife) that is a known drug addict and should have been a convict for stealing from a charity organization. Why was he so in a rush to marry her? Well, she happens to be worth $100 million dollars and her family’s money helped him to get into the Arizona elite circle. He doesn’t even know how many homes he owns, but he calls Obama an elitist. The same man that wears $600 shoes and whose wife wore $300K earring to the repuke convention. How can they ever understand what people are going through? Why wouldn’t he think the economy is fundamentally strong? As for Palin, can we mention the troopergate fraud crazy voodoo sidekick. She lied about the bridge to nowhere and the money she saved Alaska. People talk about black baby mamas. What about Bristol? Pregnant at 17? Oh I forgot, she’s engaged. Yeah, right. A shotgun that will not even last a year. Why would I vote for someone that believes in abstinence and no sex education in schools, but has a pregnant teenage daughter? A person that tried to ban books? A person with questionable religious beliefs? A person that got reimbursement for expenses while sitting at home. A person that hired friends for positions beyond their experience or fired you if you did not agree with her. I didn’t even go into her interviews with Gibson and Couric that showed not only how dumb she is , but how dumb McCain is for even choosing her. Russia is next to Alaska and that means I know foreign policy. So, when you say people vote for someone because they know nothing about the person. Do you know anything about McCain and Palin? I forgot. You’re Joe Six Pack.

YES MY SISTER BLACK AND PROUD You have made me proud. Isn’t it strange that they choose to spit their venom right out as if it could hold water. unintelligent and unworthy to be heard. They are the ones that McCain/Palin are trying to entertain and it is working funny thing is that group of idiots are the minority and there votes will be wasted. Palin is trying to start a riot at her speeches as if she wants some one to kill the next President she knows her audience, KKK connected pigs. We must show our strength in full force in November and then watch out for the enemy.

According to CNN

White Christian Supremacist group the Ku Klux Klan has endorsed Barack Obama to be the next President of the United States of America.

Speaking from his Kentucky office in Dawson Springs, the Imperial Wizard exclaimed that anything or anyone is better than having that “crazy a* b***” as President.

This is the first time in Klan history that any member of the KKK has ever publicly supported an African American candidate for the presidency.

KKK lodges all over America have been gathering and holding rallies supporting the black presidential candidate.

A reply to the comment of- Obama could be Hitler himself; blacks would vote for him regardless. They don’t care who is good or bad. Just skin color. America blacks are the worst of the worst. It is whites that put Hitler into power, not blacks. Does that mean that whites are worst of worst?
