I am or am not voting for obama.. POLL

[TIGERJC]

You tried to agrue that 50% of blacks were voting for obama b/c he is black, but your dumbass fail to realize that blacks vote democrat anyway. Now you're saying "What the **** does religious beliefs have to do with electing a president", Religious beliefs were a big part of the last presidential election and still plays a major role in this election.

There are more evangelical christians that vote republican b/c republicans have more in common with evangelical christian relgious beliefs than voters that are going to vote b/c of race.

LOL ok genius, lets get some things straight. Everyone knows that black people usually vote democratic, BUT, when was the last time you saw 90% of the black community, INCLUDING a HUGE amount of famous black people rise up out of no where and encourage people that they MUST vote and especially for one candidate; Obama. Why has oprah had Obama on her show TWICE, but when the idea of Palin was brought up to bring on the show she said "i don't want my show to be about politics." Why have nas, ludacris, so many other just decided to send this message of "YOU GOTTA GET OUT AND VOTE" all of a sudden? You HONESTLY think they'd be doing this, both candidates being old white people? Get real. I can see where you can bring religion into this, but religion really has nothing to do with THIS election. People have proven that Obama has had a past of Islamic studies. Yet NO ONE GIVES A ****, you know WHY? Because they're so caught up in the fact that he's black, and this could be making history and make changes for "other minorities too" that they don't care. I see so many countless quotes on this forum and other forums from black people praising obama, and they really have no ****ing CLUE what he stands for. They listen to everything the media says and take it full throttle and start talking him up like he's the greatest thing since sliced bread. Hes not even crust. Here's one i saw today.

For me, and this is not racist, but for me its about giving better hope and oppertunities to the african american communities. Actually I take that back, not only the african americans but all races. This is a historical moment for some of us.

THIS IS NOT RACIST? LOL.


And im not going to sit here and say that there aren't stupid ass women who wall of a sudden jumped for joy when palin came into play. This election will be won for ALL THE WRONG REASONS. This election is now more about making history than it is about choosing a president. Both candidates are horrible choices for this country, i think i hate mccain more than i hate obama. But to sit there and act like half the votes obama gets aren't from blacks voting just because he's black, or half the votes mccain is getting are from women just because he picked a female running mate would be so beyond ignorant it's unfathomable. Get your head out of your ass.

To the first rant, P. Diddy did it for the last election. Now, after us as a community of black people have taken care of our non-voting issues behind closed doors, we can now voice it out to the country. Not only grasping the black voters, but anyone else who has not expressed the right to vote. This process has been on going for about 10 years now. I remember in HS they were pushing the notion of expressing your vote. I am proud that the number of voters skyrocketed! The next step is to further education Americans on the process, and government as a whole. You should be excited too, we all should!

And HELL YES we are excited that a man of color is in the position that he is in. Whether he wins or not, he has taught thousands of Americans class and respect; along with the notion that you CAN do anything.

Next, you generalize alot on this forum. What in your brain tells you that all black people do not know that what Obama/McCain stand for? You are ignorant for assuming such a thing. Thats why I wondered if you left out the poll option earlier in this thread. It saddens me that you are so closed minded. There are plenty of white people who have no clue what McCain stands for, let alone Obama. Sir, please use your mind and think, just a little. THERE ARE TONS OF BLACK PEOPLE WHO ARE NOT VOTING FOR OBAMA, as there are TONS OF WHITE PEOPLE WHO ARE NOT VOTING FOR MCCAIN. Get your head out of your ass!

To the second rant, TIGERJC is not making a racist comment. He realizes that minorites, maninly blacks, could use a shining light of a person. He even went as far to correct it. If Obama does the things that he says (and going to say, watch the next 3 weeks) this country will be on the track to gel like to other. tigerjc said what he felt, people need a push and should acknowledge it.

Open your mind, kill the stereotypes, realize that EVERYTHING does not APPLY to EVERYONE!

BTW, all elections have hidden agendas. Oil, special interest groups, etc. It just so happens that this election has some BIG OBVIOUS changes. Obama, Hilary, Palin....the only norms are war, oil, and 2 old white guys, lol.

You've completely missed everything i was saying. I have said a million times that there's plenty of white people out there that are voting against obama because he's black, and don't know what either candidate stand for. BUT, no one knows what obama stands for, not even himself. He has changed his mind countless times on almost every issue brought to the table. Getting out there and voting has always been pushed, why does it have to take a black man to get black people to get out and vote? That's ****ing stupid. Never once did i say that no black person knows what obama stands for, i said the majority are just going out to vote because he's black, and don't know either candidates stance. IM closed minded? LOL. Hardly. I'm being real, i'm acknowledging the fact that race is a massive issue in this election, and so many people want to rule it out. Get real, stop being so naive. I know there are blacks not voting for obama, and you know why? Because they actually took the time to see candidates stance on issues and made a rational decision. I've also said that there are white people not voting for mccain, don't put words into my mouth.

Did you even read this? This makes absolutely no sense. I can't even respond to it. And please, enlighten me on what obama promises to do. Because everything he has "stood for" has changed after every other speech. HE CAN'T MAKE UP HIS MIND.


Again, i dont know why you've classified me as stereotyping. I did not say 100% of black and white people are voting this certain way because of the race issue. I have pointed out numerous times that there are a vast majority of people voting one way or another based on race. If you took the time to read any of my posts about this election then you would have realized that. Instead you're making brash assumptions based on the fact that you probably think i'm racist. Now, remove head from sphincter, and actually read what i typed this time, and respond with something that makes sense. All you did just now was point out that i was a stereotypical racist, when i never said half the things you've accused me of. Thanks.

Ok you are right and I am wrong. 90% of black people, including the celebrities are voting for Obama. It took a black man to get people to vote. Yep all the young white kids with an open mind, along with countless other races, to finally get excited about voting to go and do it.

My personal feelings about why many people did not vote prior to now, esp blacks, is beacuse no candidate stood for anything worth voting for. It makes you feel like no one cares. Suppression, yes it was years ago, still lingers in some peoples menality. Yes, it took rappers, entertainers, and celebs to hit there target demographics to spark the interest. Are you familiar with the Hip Hop summit? It was getting minorites interested in politics long before diddy. It was targeted and it worked. Be excited Obama gives hope to more people that many others didn't, the colored JFK if you will, lol.

You are right, your crystal ball is godly. Its tells you percentages of the reason people are voting.

Hell, I feel that there are plenty blacks/whites putting on fronts for their friends and coworkers. When they go to cast their ballot many will surely pick the opposite of who they have been "supporting" in public.

You are right again, he changed his mind because he is stupid, not because he further opened his mind and looked at things a different way; admitting he was wrong and is human.

If someone would have listened and thought through situations more, we wouldn't be where we are today. Listening skills are taught at a young age, your inlelct and ability to decipher things are honed skills.

I am glad that you acknowledged and clarifyed that there black people voting for the right reasons. Thank you sir! Although many of your previous post on this board led me to believe otherwise, but thank you for fixing that.

I jumped the gun, so many true race haters are on this board, my apologies

Also, I never put words in your mouth. I stated a fact, just making sure that you knew there are shady tard-faced McCain voters.

I classified you as steretyping due to the nature and order of your words. I felt you did not put the poll question about "blacks voting for Obama/McCain b/c they understand thier policies" b/c you didn't think they knew. You corrected that notion for me, thanks again!

repped......

love how, even if i bring up race, obama is apparently bringing something to the forefront that is going to make the african american community proud, and more recognized. This is just getting ridiculous, and you are further proving my point. Repped as well.

Dude, its more to me than the presidental race. Alot of black youth need to see this for inspiration. Thats what I meant by that. 20 years ago, surely even further back, having anything CLOSE to Obama was stupid to everyone.

I like what lots of rappers are doing for the black communuity, but I personally look at other influential blacks. Obama is getting press, kids are excited to watch and learn. I know a better day is coming for this country. Like i said, whether he wins the election or not, he changed a lot of people for the better.

I am speaking from a person who sees the youth (pick a race) who think they have no hope, some with good/bad/no parenting.

It has nothing to do with recognition, trust me in this world no one owes you ****.

... BUT, no one knows what obama stands for, not even himself. He has changed his mind countless times on almost every issue brought to the table....

... Both candidates are horrible choices for this country, i think i hate mccain more than i hate obama....

... FYI for everyone, i am not even voting, both candidates suck total ass, i can't stand mccain, but i really can't stand obama...

wow, and all it took for you to change your mind was an explanation of why obama is a positive figure for the black community? interesting
