what are you like 14? 15?
Well at least your butties liked your nothing post.
You never respond with anything but little cheap shots.
Like a child.
And I've been posting here for years.
In fact I was the first one to post anything about obama on this board.
I am part of no group here.
Are you?
Too bad if you don't like my post, I don't care.
And its true, everything I said.
The guy is just playing these people.
playing you.
I have defended Obama a few times here and in the real world.
And my name is sarcasm.
Obama doesn't play the race card.
He uses the whole god damn deck.

Very well said! Your getting some Rep!
the whole "we this" ' We that" stuff.
He's not talking about Americans , he's taliking about blacks.
" We" meaning ' I am black like you, not white like them".
The whole damn thing is a race card.
Its the blame game, "its republicans faults" "its their fault(meaning you know who)".
It doesn't help black americans any(unless of course getting more on welfare is the solution) , but it sure is an effective way to get a lot of democratic votes
the old saying you can lead a horse to water" you know.
if people can't or won't see it what can anybody do.
If he or any leader really wanted to help black americans he would preach to them about bad and irresponsible parenting,, put the responsibility and blame on them because in reality that is the root of all the problems within their group.
But then again that wouldn't get them too many votes so we play the card game.
cheerio
:hatsoff:
When Obama says in his address here, "We've got more work to do.." (in the context of the upcoming election), who do you take him to be referring to?
Let me answer that for him.
He would say as he did say in his post that Obama is talking to blacks exclusively,while you and I know Obama is talking to not just blacks but everyone else that is in favor of his progressive agenda.Meaning most blacks,most other minorities and a fair percentage of whites.
In reality it's the republicans not the democrates who have a narrow base racially, almost exclusively white.
As evidenced by?
Honestly I just felt like saying it. Personally, I love Obama.

Got it! We ain't shit. But in reading your diatribe I could have swore it was the ramblings of some reformed GOPer who finally got the Fox "News"/GOPer game. I really did.by progrssive agenda you mean more tax and spend right?
I basically said all i wanted in my former post.
i will add that the whole thing is a game for these people.
you think that they represent you but they only represent themselves.
you guys are just chickens being fed what you want to hear but they profit from the eggs.
you think youre number one but you ain't even number two(get it?).
What do you think constitutes electability?? It's not just experience (years in some office or body of g'ment). If that were the case Gore and Kerry would have beaten Bush. While they were foraging their political careers W was somewhere snuggled up and passed out next to an empty 5th of Jim Beam.And the whole Obama thing is a race card.
they even have politicians admitting to it on tape.
they were very confident with hillary but when obama came along they realized he was more electable so they threw her in the gutter, turned on her like rabid dogs.
Just part of the game.
the card game.A white women with experience, she's a full house.
But a black guy, not to old, strong speaker, ect.....he's a straight flush.
And like i said, if he really wanted to help these people he would address their problems within themselves regardless of consequence instead of divide and conquer.
Mr P
In the 70s the democratic nomination process got more democratic with primaries (the people) having more sway then they previously had.To be honest I'm not so sure that really has always had a better result than what some would call party bosses having more say.
It was the primary voters who went for Obama over Hillary,most of the establishment was with Hillary.
To think somehow the bosses thought the black guy was more electable is ludicrous.There is simply no way being black can be spun into being an advantage for Obama and not a hurdle.
As someone I know told me and I think it rings true "George Bush was so bad he got a black guy elected".
:hatsoff:
If it ever comes up in your classes you may want to know the distinction between a diatribe and a response.Thank you mega, I liked your diatribe also.
Diatribe, what a funny word.
sounds like a hay fever medication.
true friday, the people voted for him in the primaries, got him the nomination.
but if you think the fact that his skin color wasn't a huge factor in the fact that the members of his party and the news media supported and promoted him unlike anybody i've ever seen in the past from any party than i believe you are in denial.
We disagree, what more can be said.
I don't care about his racial make up, I do believe MOSt of his voters and supporters do/did. I only mention it because its relevant to the thread topic.
