The other thing that the simpletons seem to misunderstand is the fact that the "white vote" (Those that turned out to ensure a scary black man wouldn't take their guns, religion, etc) HEAVILY OUTNUMBERED the "black vote" (Those blacks that showed up to try to help a black man become president)...
It is amazing that here in 2009, white people are actually insinuating that BEING BLACK IS SOMEHOW AN ADVANTAGE is absolutely HILARIOUS! :lolabove:
ESPECIALLY when you realize that the Voting Rights Act, allowing black voters to finally fully participate in our elections was only passed 44 YEARS AGO!
What you don't understand is that he is less than 50% black.
I don't understand the point in bringing up his race or his middle name. He won because he was the best candidate in 2008. It's not that hard to understand.
What YOU don't understand is that people like you consider that 1 drop of "black" blood makes you black...
"The one-drop rule was a tactic in the U.S. South that codified and strengthened segregation and the disfranchisement of most blacks and many poor whites from 1890-1910. After Supreme Court decisions in Plessy v. Ferguson and related matters, White-dominated legislatures felt free to enact Jim Crow laws segregating Blacks in public places and accommodations, and passed other restrictive legislation. Legislatures sought to prevent interracial relationships to keep the white race "pure" long after slaveholders and overseers took advantage of enslaved women and produced the many mixed-race children."
yeah, okay...the president of the United States was not born here. Either you're extremely ignorant or just pissed we don't have a guy like W leading us into unnecessary wars.
I'm no birther, but he won the election as well as the Nobel Prize because of what he wasn't: George Bush. Not saying McCain was a better candidate, but people downplay how badly this country wanted to separate from Dubbya.
So let me get this straight. You are saying that he WAS IN FACT born here? ... but the REAL reason he won't show it is because he was identified on his birth certificate as being "caucasian", and that he would have lost his black support?
That's a GOOD ONE!
k: :crazy: :birgits_giggle: :zeitung_lesen:
That Nobel Prize was BS. He doesn't deserve that just yet.
And yes, people realized that when Clinton left office, the economy was pretty much as healthy as can be. It's amazing that one guy can screw a country as much as W did.
