So, you're saying ONLY black people are voting for Obama and that the ONLY reason they're voting for him is because he's black? This is a man that supports equal pay for equal work between men and women, he supports a woman's right to chose what happens to her body, he wants to start overhauling the healthcare system in this country, etc. All these things affect more than just black people. I personally know other people of color (Asian, Latino, etc) along with whites that are supporting Obama. What's their reason for voting for him? To say that blacks are only voting for this man because he's HALF black is insulting. As if we can't see past a man's color in order to make a decision. Which leads me to point two.

I bet they have NEVER put any white president sticker on their car...
Dude, are you serious? Blacks have been allowed to vote in this country since 1965. The italicized allowed is a whole other topic which I won't bother to address. We've been supporting and voting for white men every since. Usually when you're supporting a candidate, you'll wear buttons, clothing, car decals, etc to express your views. Trust me, black people have been putting "president stickers on their cars" for the white men they've supported for MANY, MANY years. You act as if this is the first time that we've voted in this country. And despite what your media tells you, a LOT of us have been voting for quite awhile.

In spite of how some of you retards on this board think, there are some people out there voting for candidates based on where they stand on the issues. It would be dumb of me to say that there aren't those voting strictly on the candidates' skin color because we all know better. It's definitely white people that are making a bigger deal about his skin color/race. If we as black people made our decisions purely based on skin color, we would be azzed out all the friggin time.
Wow....someone brought the heat!
