Do you think America will really elect a black man???

Question

I don't personally because racism is still alive and well in this country. Everyone keeps saying America has changed and those of you who live in this country know thats a bunch bull c**p, the country has just gotten better is all.

Opinions please

Answer 1

Of course, as long as he is experienced and qualified to be president. Unfortunately, we do not have any candidates that meet that criteria this time around. Maybe next election season!  

Answer 2

Rascism may be more prevalent in your neck of the woods but in most populated places, its certainly not as bad as it was 20 years ago.

(Nice how Pretzel can continue to show the redeeming quality of a conservative...ignorance.  God bless those simpletons!)

Answer 3

It did in the primary. And call me naive, but I have more faith in America than that.

Answer 4

I think the racist and sexist have a big problem .They have nobody to vote for.

Answer 5

Any man with far-left liberal ideals will always be hard to elect.  I think that there will be a small number of people that will not vote for him simply because he is black, but another small group of people will be voting for him simply because he is black.  Ultimately, I think those will balance out and the fight will be in the middle for the more independent voters.

Answer 6

yeah, I think so, Bush is still in office, so that's not saying to much for what we put in office, and for those ignorant souls who think he's Muslim he's not, so get your head out of your a$$

Answer 7

I might have voted for Colin Powell but not some black radical.

Answer 8

I think the odds are strongly against it.  Racism is alive and well in America and it is as treacherous as ever.

I do however, hope Obama wins.

Answer 9

YES

but not a muslim

Answer 10

sure with colin powell runs

hugs!

Answer 11

No, but men and women will vote for McCain because of Palin. She hunts moose She fishes. Was a

TV Sports reporter, then City council for 4 years, then Mayor then for 4 years, then Lt Governor for 4 years, now Governor for 2 years.

She has an approval rate of over 80% as Governor, the highest in the USA.

Mother of 5

Oldest son in the US Army

Youngest son born with Downs Syndrome, they knew and still had the child.

She actually has visited the troops in Lanstuhl hospital in Germany.

Her husband is a real man who has won the snowmobiler 2000-mile "Iron Dog" race. 4 times.

Her husband is native American

Sarah Palin is a great VP, a Governor, Guns, babies and Jesus what more could you want?

Answer 12

Sooner or later it will happen but I am not just sure now.  just look at the post by the person name Sarah Palin Rocks she is grouping all black men as the same way as obviously has a racist view of us and no matter how well a black candidate is she would not vote for him or her.  Not all black men are not like the street thugs you see in video and to be truthful about it there are a lot of people like her.

Also look at cheese post  to prove my point.

Answer 13

IF... there was one qualified running which there isn't ... Obama is so inexperienced that Ms. Palin has more experience in public office than him she has 14 Yrs. in public office he doesn't even have 2

Answer 14

Define "black". According to American and international standards, Barack Hussein Obama is not black, being only 6% black. His father at 12% black could claim to be "black". Not his son, since the 12% was further reduced by Caucasian blood.

Answer 15

That doesn't have much to do with it. It's all about agenda. Every African American Republican is seen as not black to Liberals & Dem. African Americans. It's the biggest crock of sh*t. It doesn't have anything to do with skin color, it has to do with agenda. Oh yeah, Bill Clinton was the 1st Black President right? Give me a break.  

Answer 16

He is only 1/2 black. Does that make a difference? But he is 100% American.

Answer 17

I think we will......now how long he lasts before the skinheads and the kkk get him, who knows? I'm not racist...but I am a realist.

Answer 18

I know at least 80,000 will vote for him.

Answer 19

Well, my dad is a pretty tough racist (and sexist), but he said that if Condeleeza Rice were to run for president, he would vote for her in a heartbeat.

I was really impressed when he said that, especially since he was actually being serious.

It showed me that even people with extreme bias are capable of putting that aside and voting for more legitimate reasons, such as policies, experience, etc.

That, of course, doesn't mean that most of the people in America WILL put aside their bias.

Answer 20

Yes

Obama!
