Racism vs Sexism in the upcoming election?

Question

African American presidential candidate

Female vice presidential candidate

Which do you see being more of an issue in this election, racism or sexism? Or do you think it won't be an issue?

(Sorry if this was already asked, just curious)

Answer 1

People who vote to "give props to the homies" or throw a bone to feminists shouldn't vote. I feel like 2/3 of our country has become deaf to the issues and enlightened to the physical appearance of the candidates. THEY'RE JUST PEOPLE whether they're black, white, asian, male, female, or she-male. They're people. People need to be voting for the person who will lead our country in the best direction. You've got a lot of college kids who are voting for the first time this year. They don't watch the news because they don't have TV in their dorms or they're just too busy. They vote because of what they've heard from other people, whether it's accurate or not. I'm scared to learn the results of this election....

But since both presidential candidates are male, I think race is and has always been the biggest issue with this election.

Answer 2

Palin is only VP - I don't think even the misogynist voter will care that she is female.

Answer 3

I like white women more than black males.

Answer 4

Race is an issue, s*x is not an issue the platform  is.

Answer 5

it looks like sexism will win hands down.
