Color isn't supposed to have a dang thing to do with it, unless you're a racist.....

It's funny that I never once recall the "race card" being played by anyone last year during the Iowa Cacuas season.

I never once heard a Black person screaming about a white person voting for a white man because he was white.In any election before....Yet right away you got screaming because a black person was voting for a black PRESIDENT.....Sandhusker you are so concerned about wanting to call black people racists that you do not even see your own Racial issues.....

PS color has had lots to do with it.....This is the first time a Black person ran for president,so do not even try to say color has'nt a dang thing to do with it.....

I guess it all depends on who says something, where it's said and what is meant. I have one good friend who is a black man. (african american) or whatever.....George Morgan. Former POW in Vietnam, retired from tthe railroad, owns about 300 acres with a nice house and runs cows..He and his wfie are welcome in my house anytime. He loves to tell black jokes. Heck he was the one that told me he would be out of town for a week during the primaries because he had a trapping job in DC...said a coon and a beaver was trying to get into the white house. Seems he has a black joke everytime I see him. Course he voted republican as well. Maybe he's not the typical black person. I don't know what that definition is. I just know when he looks at a man he does not see color. Just another person.

The first time I voted for a black national leader was in 1978, I am told that I am 'White', so I think I predate your election by 30 years!

For president of the USA?.....Or are you being technical and need it to be writing out that way?...I guess I should never assume as some here look for any edge to get out and stand on to scream atop thier soap box...

Better watch out Tex,.Sandhusker considers the word typical as a racist slur...

I agree that people it seems can poke fun at themselfs for many reason ,but they and others do not tolorateit when another starts poking the same fun back........example...A women can call herself fat...but if you turn around and call her that 10 minutes later,you will be at the very least,frowned upon...This kind of thing is not strickly a black and white issue....

This is the internet nonothing, never assume anything as people all over the world access the site. I don't have any quarrel with you, but there is a whole world outside of the USA/Canada even though most news is rarely reported there unless it has specific relevance to United States or Canadian interests, I was merely informing you that this is far from unique in the greater scheme of things, so don't be so quick to go overboard when it was you who was vague!

I'm not saying that black people are racists, but I am saying that some are, and it was obvious that race was the biggest reason many blacks voted for Obama. That, by definition is engaging in racist behavior.

My biggest gripe here is you Liberals that have incredibly tight standards for determining that a white person is racist, but a totally different set of standards for judging other races. Why do you get all bent out of shape and holler "racist" if a white man makes a "nigger" joke, but you don't say a damn thing when a black man does much worse?

Watch a comedy routine by just about any black comedian on TV and there will be a bunch of white jokes. That doesn't bother me, though. If they want to tell a white joke, that's their business.

So again, why is there silence from you racist detectives when a black man is making racist comments?

And BTW, I've never lived in Valentine.

actually black people have ran for president in the past..

1. Jesse Jackson
He ran in 1984 and 1988

2. Alan Keyes
He ran in 1996, 2000, and is running in 2008

3. Al Sharpson
He ran in 2000

Also a black woman ran for president, Shirley Chisholm. in 72


not to mention..
Mary Bethune lifted herself from the cotton field to the White House as an advisor to the President of the United States.

but then again we racist/sexists Americans been letting black folk and women run for the office of President for awhile now..
but then again maybe you forgot "The Victoria Woodhull / Frederick Douglass Ticket in the 1872 U.S. Presidential Election


BTW NoNothing have you ever voted for a black man (or for a woman) for President? or don't they allow that in Canada?
