LET'S GET REAL! HILLARY SUPPORTERS VOTING FOR MCCAIN ARE RACISTS!
I call 'em as I see 'em! Hillary Clinton and John McCain have supported the 3 worse bills in determining the fortunes of the American people in the last 7and a half years, and candidates claim they have great experience. The vote to invade Iraq has been a catastrophic failure for Americans in lives, treasure and for the sake of our Constitution. The vote for the continuation of NAFTA that Bill Clinton signed with a Republican congress has decreased jobs and pay in this country for U.S. citizens with both McCain and Hillary giving support. And voting for the New Banking and Bankruptcy Laws has led to the greatest housing scandal since the Savings and Loan Scams of the Reagan/Bush years.
With a track record like that, Hillary and McCain have both shown the worse regard for the welfare of Americans. Those 3 votes, alone, should have Americans questioning how these candidates' experience has misguided them in their judgment concerning critical issues to our deficit.
The only reason folks aren’t falling all over themselves for Barack Obama is color. Many Hillary supporters say if Barack wins they will vote for McCain and then tell you they aren’t prejudiced. Hillary’s and Obama’s visions for the future are far closer than they will ever be to John McCain’s. So once again, some White voters will vote against their best interests, based on color. Yet, these same folks will tell you they aren’t racists. When race is the basis of your decisions, you bet you’re a racist, whether you realize it or not.
The media has attempted to call Black voters racists, by saying they are voting overwhelmingly for Barack (92%). Yet not one news station has brought up how Blacks voted heavily for John Kerry (89%) and Al Gore (90%), two White men.
The double standard of White Privilege has shown itself in this election process in the racial fear the media and others have congered up regarding Reverend Jeremiah Wright and the candidacy of Barack Obama. Attempting to paint Obama with hate due to his minister's words is pure ignorance. Some White folks see it as a valid issue. What ignorance! Many White Americans have come from racist homes that have produced children that don’t see the country as their parents did. So why are we putting so much emphasis on Obama’s minister? Is it ignorance or purposefully attempting to mislead the people.
There are real issues that need to be addressed if we intend to make this country great again. There’s no doubt about it. America has lost a lot of its luster the last 8 years and we have some serious challenges ahead that have to be addressed with good judgment.
We have two candidates who have helped to get this country in the mess it’s in through their poor judgment. You have one candidate that is younger in years, but has shown the judgment of Solomon when it comes to the issues – the only problem for some people is his skin color.
THEY DON’T TRULY REALIZE THE TRUE PROBLEM IS THEIR LACK OF CHARACTER AND INTEGRITY IN LETTING THIS GREAT NATION SINK OVER SOMETHING AS SMALL AS RACE! THESE FOLKS ARE NOT PATRIOTS – THEY’RE COWARDS LACKING SELF WORTH!
COLOR BLINDNESS IS NOT WHAT WE WANT. WHAT’S NEEDED IS COLOR APPRECIATION, BRINGING THE SAME DIVERSITY WE SEE IN NATURE.
QUESTION EVERYTHING! THAT'S WHERE THE TRUTH RESIDES.
I don't think this is really fair to say. I dislike Hillary so much that
I'm considering voting for McCain should she end up being the candidatie.
Does that make me a sexist? Isn't it possible that I don't like her for
reasons other than being a woman? While I'm sure there are folks out there
who are indeed racist and will vote for McCain over Obama for just that
reason, I don't think it's fair to group everyone so easily into being
racists.
Nutsy, although I think you make an interesting point, let's follow what
you said all the way through. "I dislike Hillary so much that I'm
considering voting for McCain should she end up being the candidate. Does
that make me a sexist?" If we vote for candidates based on issues, how
could you be for McCain when Hillary's vision is so close to what Obama is
offering? In your case, I would be saying you allowed your hatred to get
the best you, if you will vote for a person who's vision goes against your
best interest. Doing that would be foolish. And I would urge you to
examine your hatred for Hillary.
Capt., I believe "issues" like beauty is in the "eye of the beholder". Are
there any issues other than race that would lead a white American Democrat
supporter of Hilary Clinton to vote for Republican John McCain instead of
Barack Obama? In my opinion, there are valid "issues" other than race for
this act. "Experience" is still a prime issue to many voters and these
voters genuinely feel that Obama lacks the experience to be President, his
self proclaimed "good judgement" notwithstanding! Those voters leery of
"socialism" or far left "liberalism" might feel more comfortable with John
McCain. Those voters whom "personality" is an issue may feel that McCain's
hot temper is easier to swallow than Obama's seeming arrogance and
condesending aloofness. The point is, in my opinion, just because a white
voter votes for McCain over Obama is not an indication that he or she is a
"racist". (By the way are black Americans who are loyal Republicans and who
will vote for McCain "racists"?) In my opinion neither Obama, Clinton or
McCain are ideally qualified to be President. To me it is all about
choosing the "lesser of two evils". Race, for the majority of thinking
Americans , has nothiing to do with it.
Mo, you made quite a few assumptions and you know what they say when you
assume... The experience of Hillary & McCain is what got us in the position
we're in now, so deliver me from your experience issue. You've experienced
voting for Bush the first time to find your assumptions wrong. And you're
making the same mistake again. Life is a trial & error process, but you
keep making the same errors, instead of learning from them.
John McCain has had to drop 5 top aides from his campaign in the last week
because of their being lobbyists. What took McCain so long? What happened
to the Straight Talk Express? What happened to the maverick that didn't
believe in the special interest groups? You can't get much deeper in the
doo doo than lobbyist Charles Black & he was attached to McCain. McCain an
agent of change? I think not!
Nutsy, it appears you have disregarded the TRUTH because you don't like the
package it came in. When you withdraw from debate because you don't like
the TRUTH, you make communication very difficult to take place.
