This is all horse hockey. Black people-- Democrat black people, not just the "Uncle Toms" that dems want to say black conservatives are-- are fed up with Obama. He's not doing anything to help anyone. All he's doing is living like a king and not bothering with us peons. Obama has a monarchial mindset, nothing more. He's Emperor in his mind, and the rest of us are just living in his world. It has nothing to do with race. At all. Period.

I feel that racism still plays a role in Obama elections today. I currently moved to a smaller town were my college is located and just found out that racism still is alive and its even strong then it was before. I fell if the congress gives Obama proposal that chance, it will all pay off at the end. But every decision he put up for them they all turn down. Now the decision he are making too many Americans are smart and Right But the? still remains why want they just give him a chance and approve one of his proposal it can’t do nothing but help the economy in the long run.

Racism is more a part of all that's going on than anything else.Where were all of these antagonists when Bush was ruining the country? Where was the uproar?"Race card"? What is a race card? Just a cute way of trying to trivialize racism.Get your heads out of the sand.Racism is very much alive and well in America and until we can discuss it sensibly and honestly, it will continue to exist.

No matter how hard the liberals try to play the "race card" these days ... it's falling on deaf ears, so they might as well accept that people have lost faith in him because he is failing all the way around, or come up with some other lame excuse because the race card crap isn't cutting it any more. People are really tired of hearing the racial crap.
Bottom-line: If race were an issue ... Obama would not be in the White house now. He's failing miserably all the way around, so that is why people are losing faith in him. They didn't just realize he's black and decide to go against him. "He's failing miserably!" Even the liberal rag, The Huffington Post, is actually telling the truth these days.

Despite the media, racism, fear and hatred are no longer the engines that drive America, as evidenced by three words -- President Barack Obama.

I know a way to take race out of the discussion. How about an all black (not just half black) candidate.
For me, Herman Cain is the brightest of all the candidates and potential candidates, but just happens to be black. It is not really a factor.

Race was an issue in the first campaign of Obama...raised by himself, and it worked to an extent, because his opponents (including from within his own party) handled him with kid gloves for fear of the PC Police. Now he is doing it again. This is typical of a Community Organizer...raise made up issues...then step back and watch people TRY to defend themselves or say or do nothing in order not to be perceived as racist. Play the victim...nothing to lose and everything to gain. Perhaps then people will overlook divisiveness, arrogance, and bad policies that have negatively impacted this nation. The question is, will the electorate accept more and more spending, ever increasing taxes, larger and larger government and intrusions into our lives for four more years of the same? Lets Hope for a Change. This OJT stint didn't work out.
