Color isn't supposed to have a dang thing to do with it, unless you're a racist.....
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!nonothing said:This was the first time EVER that a black person could vote for a Black leader...Also This was the first time EVER a white person could vote for a black leader....Maybe the true word of the people has finially been spoken....be them what ever their skin color......

TexasBred said: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.
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!nonothing said:andybob said: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!nonothing said:This was the first time EVER that a black person could vote for a Black leader...Also This was the first time EVER a white person could vote for a black leader....Maybe the true word of the people has finially been spoken....be them what ever their skin color......
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...

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'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?
just left your ass prints on windows around town???Sandhusker said:And BTW, I've never lived in Valentine.
