In reply to the discussion: Talking to family members I can tell you the trouble Obama Is up against [View all]Happydayz
(112 posts)30. Ok, but how is Obama in trouble because of racist who will never vote for him?
Why is it amazing that in Missouri Obama and Mittens are tied in the polls? If anything that is a good sign for Obama, because Obama didn't win Missouri in 08 and its a traditional red state. I would never want to have a debate or conversation about President Obama with anyone(including relatives) that believe in the Muslim, birther and he wants to destroy America racist lies. Obama, isn't in any trouble with these people, because they were never going to vote for him in the first place.

There is no convincing some people. I refuse to worry about winning them over.

Racism is the whisperer of lies. Racists didn't vote for Obama in 2004, and won't again.
