race not an issue?

its funny that people think that race wasnt an issue with this election because obama won
if he hadnt won then would it have been because of his race? it is sad because id be willing to bet that most black people voted for obama because of his race, which is definitely not a way to decide the president. a guy i work with truly believes that he will get a job in dc now. ive seen numerous videos of people crying out how happy they are because now they wont have to worry about paying their house mortgage or having to keep looking for a job because obama will just give them money. he has known middle eastern ties, so in a pinch who will he side with? his friends from the area, or his country that he is supposed to represent. i understand the historical significance (im a history buff) and all but i cant see how over half of this nation thinks hes the best man for the job. just go to any free clinic in your area and compare it to a privately supported hospital. thats what govt supported health care will get you. no doctor wants to spend years of his life going through bullshit of med school and residency to make $50k a year.

i also see the flaws of trying to change our free market society to socialism. its all fine and dandy of everybody being equal and yadda yadda yadda, but any level headed individual will tell you that everybody is NOT equal. you cant cater to someone who may be less motivated to work hard or work at all for that matter. taking money (whether it was hard earned or someones trust fund) from 1 person and giving it to another is wrong wrong wrong. so lets see what president elect barack hussein obama has in store for our country. he can promise change, but he wont even say what kind of change it is...



and still waiting on him to release a birth certificate...

Re: race not an issue?

You can view his birth certificate online. There are hi-resolution photo's of it and upclose shots of the seal. And as far as people being socialist, if you want to talk about socialism I got a bridge in Alaska to sell you.

Do you have a link. Every picture i've seen of the birth certificate seem to be of bad quality.

People aren't equal. People have equal rights. Big difference.

Re: race not an issue?

people are supposed to have equal rights, but that is not the case. affirmative action is a perfect example of that. still havent seen what i think is a legit birth certificate.

Oh well excuse our Democratic process. I and all other Americans will make sure of it that Obama will present his original birth certificate, along with 3 forms of government ID first thing in the morning. He will only accept his new position pending your approval.

he was hired by the american people. the president works for us! yes he should be held to the same standard as other americans. can we just go walking around the white house without showing any identification?

i am surprised as to how many conservatives on these boards.

I can't believe i'm dignifying this absurdity, but do you really think that in all the years Mr. Obama has been employed in America nobody has ever substantiated his citizenship? As Americans you have every right to dislike Obama, but when you throw up stuff like this it just makes you look foolish. It reminds me of the McCain campaign: constantly on the attack but firing blanks. Come up with something real! Of course Obama is an American. Of course his birth cert has been verified. Oh my god what stupidity.
