29. That is not

reality. President Obama got almost 40 percent of the white vote and over 70 percent of other minority groups. They consider the whites that voted for President Obama the enemy too. They call them Liberal communists. What they are espousing is no different than any other white supremacist group like the Klu Klux Klan. These people can not deal with the changing demographics of America. O'Reilly's rhetoric is no different either or Limbaugh.

The simple truth is no American is a second class citizen based on skin color but that is what scares these people. As an African American, I can care less about the color of someone's skin as long as I'm treated with respect and as an equal. That is what the President is really about. They don't like the idea that a Black person or anybody else can rise to the top office in this land.

To tell you the truth, I think people are talking in code and it is really about using skin color for
preferred status in this country. I see this through Foreign Policy and immigration Policy. Is this really about keeping unskill or criminals out or about keeping certain racial groups out of this country through a quota system? In the 20 and 21st century, you had a lot of European immigration coming through Ellis Island and now you have more immigration crossing the borders that are not European. I think certain whites are threatened by the shift. So it is not just about African Americans, but it is really about anyone who isn't white isn't it The problem;em with these certain whites, is that a significant portion of whites are not racists and threatened by someone's skin color. Their message is really tailored towards whites that are though.

So I guess that means Obama is going to fight himself. southernyankeebelle Feb 2013 #1
No, only 1/2 of himself...? angstlessk Feb 2013 #3
