Also, I find it rather racist that you say the black community voted for Obama because he “looks” like them. Like all of them? Obama doesn’t look like any of my black friends, and I couldn’t say John McCain looks like me, could you? So next time you feel like saying “all black people look alike”, watch where you say it.

Kenya is in fact predominantly Christian, and the majority of Muslims–all 6% of them–are in fact Arab and South Asian, and do not reside in the same region as Obama’s father did. Obama’s father in fact converted while he was in Zanzibar apparently. He also did not have a relationship with his father in his formative years on a par with his step father or grandparents.

Just paste the links…

You are also grossly mistaken on how racism is defined in voting habits. Voting for someone because they are black is different than not voting for someone because they are white. Secondly, for Obama NOT to occasionally address race would have been impossible, simply because of the color of his skin…he would not have been able to avoid it. It is disingenuous to criticize him for doing so. Finally, if you presumptions were true, Jesse Jackson’s two campaigns in the 1980s would have inspired more of a response among the African American population than it did.

I can certainly imagine the outcry, particularly given what was unleashed during the campaign, as well as the number of people that stated they were supporting Obama.

None of the official spots painted Obama in a racist light. However, the conflation of the official with the unofficial lines of attack are strong. McCain was in
a pretty hard position, I would say, because it’s likely that he does not
have the less savory views as many of his voters, just as Obama does
not have the unenlightened ideas of many of his supporters.

Ultimately, it came down to which individual exercised more control over those
areas of his campaign.

Somehow, you forgot that bit…

No, I’m really a better person than that.

Suffered? Suffered? If by suffered, you mean growth of GDP, increase in median wage, decrease in unemployment, no terrorist attacks on US soil, more aid given to Africa than any President before him, then you have an odd definition of suffered.

OK, I’ll play-Obama using taxpayer funds to go help the genocidal African dictator Odinga strongarm his opponent into gaining power.

Where was the voter fraud, btw… I saw some attempted, yes, but the fact we know about it means it failed. If it was successful we’d *maybe* get to hear about it in 2010 or after…
