5. I felt that was the case right from the beginning.

I used to be on a poll site that has been closed for a few years but it was operating during the first Obama election. I saw posts that indicated racism but never said anything outright about it. Well, on the day Obama won one of the people on the site was extremely angry and called all of us the N word lovers and threatened to kill Obama. Needless to say his post and him disappeared within hours. That site sure spoke loud and clear without it actually being said outright what one of the main things was against Obama. I am truly sad and angry that people are willing to hurt millions simply because of their hate for someone different than them.
