What if...
Edited on Sat Mar-22-08 01:56 PM by butterfly77
Obama looked more white than black do you think that we would hear all of the issues pertaining to race? I have another question I didn't post on here yesterday but I saw Bill Clinton on television talking about McCain and Hillary and how patriotic they are as though blacks don't care about this country it sounded as if,she and mccain will be running together.

What is there problem, if I was still for Hillary this remark right there would have made me stop supporting them, at first I thought they weren't race baiting but now, I see them in a different light. Hillary thinks she is suppose to be the nominee and they talk about Obama as though he is nothing. Hillary and Bill can kiss my ass! and I will not be voting for her if she is the nominee. Something I thought I never would say but these people are ridiculous...

1. From what little you've relayed,
just because Bill Clinton mentioned the patriotism of Hillary and McCain doesn't automatically mean he was saying that blacks AREN'T patriotic.

I don't like the idea of Bill and Hillary painting McCain in a positive presidential light, though...

3. I don't care what he looks like.
Obama is no more to me than a man who doesn't meet my criteria for the job he's applying for.

For that matter, neither does HRC.

I don't care what color skin, or gender, HRC, Obama, or Bill Clinton sport. I don't want any of them in the WH.

5. Oh. A user of false propaganda.
I am a supporter of none of them. Including McCain.

As a matter of fact, I have NEVER not voted for the democratic nominee for president, and I've been voting for 30 years.

This will be my very first time, if either Clinton or Obama gets the nomination. I'm not sure what I'll do. I know I'll cast a vote FOR someone I think would make a good president, and that certainly won't be McCain. Or Clinton. Or Obama. Whether I vote 3rd party, or write in a better democrat is up for grabs.

My vote is earned, not owed; if the party doesn't want to earn my vote, that's the party's choice. I'm not accountable for the votes lost through this disgusting parody of a primary, or through nominating a bad candidate. If the party can't earn enough votes to win, the party is accountable.

All the blame-game propaganda in the world won't bury that simple fact.

You can shovel that shit elsewhere.
