I'm a white guy, and I'm angry. Several of my white guy friends are angry too. At the Republicans! And we're voting for Obama and the Democrats in general.

One thing I'm angry about is how the right-wing talks about Latinos. Another is the way they treat women. There are other things I'm angry over, but I'm not going to list all the outrageous things that have been said and done by the Republicans. I'm just going to state that my wife is a Latino woman (a US citizen), and guess what - she is a *former* Republican!
