We as people need to come as one.Stop all of this black or white stuff.At the end of the day we should be thinking adout a better way of life for one another.The world as we live will never be great if we can't look pass the skin color the next person has.It's time for a change!I bet if Obama looked more white than black than it would be right.Well wake-up cause from what I see he's a half black half white man trying to make a change for us all.Do you really think you can go another four to eight years with this world we live in sinking?

I would like the author of this (and all of the other sources that have wrote articles about the incident at Baylor) to publish a correction as the source of the rope has been investigated, and it was NOT a noose.

This story was poorly handled by the media, as multiple news sources jumped to conclusions, defaming the name of Baylor University when the incident hadn't yet been investigated.

i've had the opposite experience on my campus.

pro-obama kids have been hostile, aggressive, and generally rude toward anyone supporting differing views.

We all need to come together now. Racidal change is necessary now to rebuild this nation. Don't let petty racism about skin color cloud our judgement. There is no reason for it in this country. Slavery has been over for many generations now. Why do we have to constantly relive the past. Move forward. Barack Obama is both African-American and Caucasion-American and other mixed races. I beleive Barack's mom knew her son was bound for greatness and so it was in God's hands to make this happen. Where are all the conservative people who say they believe in God, fairness and love for our fellow human beings. God loves all people not just one race. Ask yourself why you are racist?

Why do you hang nooses in secret on trees? What is wrong with your thinking about other races? Make sense, think for yourself and don't be brainwashed by old ideas.

Senator McCain is a great American statesman - these racists don't represent what it means to be Conservative.
