It's time for me to ask a question. Why, if people disagree with Barack people, are we ignorant?

Question

It seems that if someone doesn't want Obama, then they're just not right, dumb, ignorant. Did it every dawn on anyone that this is still America and we get to vote for whomever we want? Therefore, our answers are not to be judged by those who are trying to be liberal and socialistic.

Answer 1

If I understand you correctly, you are saying that some people who support Obama are calling you ignorant, is that right?

If so, my answer to you is simple.

People with narrow minds believe that whoever they support is the only person who should even have a chance, and that there shouldn't even be an election. Your problem if as I understood it to be, is one that is usually faced by Republicans.

I have found in personal life that when a Liberal Extremist has an opinion, they preach tolerance, but only of the view they have. Your view means nothing, and they are not tolerant of your idea's.

Before anyone responds please re-read and note that I mentioned EXTREMISTS. Not all people with liberal views are bad, and many are good people as well.

Answer 2

No one ever has denied you the right to vote for this idiot, so the part about is this still America and freedom stuff has not been touched so I don't really understand what you are talking about but to call people stupid for not voting for an idiot doesn't make any sense, the people that will not vote for him have probably done there research.

Answer 3

Go figure. People are hypocrites.

Answer 4

This isn't the place for political commentary.

Answer 5

When libs can't state facts they resort to name calling. Pay no attention to it.

Answer 6

You have a right to vote agree or disagree with any Candidate you choose. but try not to let it be because of race. only the facts or s feeling but not race.let's start getting away from that type of racism.

Answer 7

i am a supporter of Obama, but saying someone is ignorant by what they believes makes you pretty ignorant yourself.

Answer 8

I agree with you, for a free country there sure is alot of that going on.

And to the person above: where then is the place for political commentary if not here or everywhere?

Answer 9

its not that they are dumb and ignorant. it all depends on the reason. some people get to looking at him instead of listening to him. that is what makes those people ignorant. its 2008 and it is time for a change, but the change doesnt necessarily have to be with him. hilary is on the journey for a change all well. everyone will have there own opions, but we all need to make these opinions that will turn into decisions based on the merit. nothing else.

Answer 10

AMEN Everyone is entitled to their own opinions and I hope that's what this forum is all about.

Answer 11

Do you want to be a Muslim country?  He scares me and the Muslim's scare me.  If your child made a mistake could someone in your family kill them as a honour killing?  If he claims to be a Christian why won't he hold his hand over his heart, why does he have to be sworn in on the Koran?  You people are heading into scary territory.

Answer 12

I haven't heard anybody say that people who disagree with Obama is dumb or ignorant simply because they disagree with Obama, and I am surrounded by people who are fans of his.  SO I am not sure who you are referring to.  There may be individuals out there who support their candidate so strongly that they view others as dumb, but that is not common and it certainly would not be unique to Obama supporters.  IN fact, everyone does get to vote for whomever they want, and they are not dumb or ignorant if they disagree with someone else's politics.  

On the other hand, there are a lot of dumb and ignorant things said against Obama, as exemplified by a couple of the answers to your post here.  People who won't vote for him because his name sounds muslim seem ignorant, as do people who won't vote for him because of the color of his skin.  That's not disagreement-- that's prejudice.  And that IS ignorant.

Answer 13

Good lord is Kerij stupid.

Answer 14

Everybody has a right to their opinion and to vote for who they want. Some people are more aware of the issues than others so it's frustrating when others make ill informed decisions that affect the world.

Answer 15

it is the same way for people for Ron Paul, abortion, illegal immigration etc.....most of the time the people who call you names when you don't agree with them is that that is all they have left.  there arguments for their position don't hold water so they resort to name calling.  here is an example...(joe says there really is an easter bunny.  I say, no there isn't, your parents put out the candy.  joe, who has no way to back up his belief in the easter bunny says "shut up doo doo head.") sound familiar?  it isn't that YOU are ignorant, it is that THEY are and they know it.
