When Obama is not Elected, will there be riots and violence ?

Question

I ask because it concerns me.

I think Obama is an affable guy and has strong beliefs.

I dont think America is ready for that much change !

Answer 1

No.  When Obama completes his 2nd term in office 8 years from now.  The Obama Administration will have cleaned up  the catastrophic mess that  Bush has Made.  

America will be happy that we elected him in 2008 and we will be ready to elect Hillary as our President in 2016.  

Answer 2

Why would there by riots and violence. We are all Americans I hope, and all have faith in this republic. I am confidence that Americans for the most part will get behind him and show the world that we truly believe in democracy, isn't that one of the reasons we went over to Iraq, Kora, Vietnam, WWI and WWII

Answer 3

I would not be surprised to see a replay of the street scene after Katrina.  But I have my fingers crossed that I am wrong.  

Answer 4

it's weird that you used "when" instead of "if". You are saying that he without a doubt will not get elected. But to answer your question, no i do not think there will be riots.

Answer 5

Actually, I believe that there will definately be some. Also, lawsuits and accusations of cheating, etc.

We've seen it all before.

Answer 6

Are you kidding?  In this jobless, homeless, aching country, you actually think there is a chance Obama won't be elected?  You actually believe that the American people want four more years of Bush?  

Answer 7

Would you be asking this question if he were white?

This is a racist question.  If there weren't riots in 2000, there won't be in 2008

Answer 8

No need to worry about that scenario. But, on the off chance he would be, no, despite his strong socialist stances, no.

Answer 9

of course, we all know how black people act with all that jungle blood they got.

Answer 10

first, if obama doesnt win, there probably will be riots. i mean, they are just bring in another bush, and who needs that!??

and second, if obama wins, they still will probably be riots and such,

because of the kkk and other bias people who dont want a black president.

this is a historical event and either way, i think there wil be a riot of some sort.

Answer 11

There will be riots if he is not elected.  There will be riots if he is elected.  Such is the nature of his supporters.

Answer 12

i say that in the conservative areas it won't be as well, however, liberals, like me will be happy to be so fortunate :D

Answer 13

Visit Best Buy the day before the election, just to "fill out your list"!!!  Then come back when the "sale" starts!!!

Answer 14

Maybe by some terrorists.  I think they won't be happy.  Because McCain won't put up with it.

Answer 15

When The Holy McCayun and Sayunt Sarah are not elected will Awlmitey Gawd send The Seven Plagues of Egypt upon US.

Oh woe is US.  

Answer 16

It's not because America is not ready for change; it's because America is not ready for radical socialism disguised as "economic justice".

So, yes, unfortunately there's a high probability of riots and/or other violence.  Socialists believe that the new world order is right only when they are in control.

Answer 17

Well goodness I hope so... I would not want to think that I haven't been clinging to my guns and studying my Bible for nothing...

Answer 18

We may have a revolution.  If he loses, it would be worse than taxation without representation.

If he wins it will be representation without taxation (for the freeloaders)

Answer 19

I am not wise enough to say if either candidate has the answer anymore.I think neither one has the magic fix.That being said,My biggest immediate concern,the one I think will impact me the quickest,is a disputed election,a close election,or some redneck deciding to shoot Obama.Om my gawd,this country will be torn apart,from the inside.If ANY of those very realistic scenarios come to pass,riots will ensue nationwide.The worst part is,as divided as this country is now,it's hard to know if the government will even be in control to restore order.This used to be one nation,The UNITED States of America.Today,we are a nation divided,neither side willing to give the other any consideration or respect."That's not MY president1"I see that often.That's crazy,like him or not,like the next one or not,Bush is,and McCain or Obama will be,THE president of the United States.This bitter partisan hatred has more ability to destroy us than Russia,and is more likely to happen.I might not like Bush,but he is currently MY president.I may not like who gets elected,but he will be MY president.I do my bit at the ballot box,and take what the Constitution gives me.At a time when more than ever,Americans need to work together and be united,we are as far apart as we have ever been since the Civil War.A close election or an assassination of Obama,and this country goes to anarchy.I could just cry when I see the bitter hate between fellow Americans.We can only hope

Answer 20

Quite possibly.

It depends on how much c**p Rev. Al and Louis Farrakhan stir up.

Even though black Americans comprise only 17% (+/-) of the U.S. population, they insist on getting more than a 50% share of everything... we can thank the Dem's for the illegal quota system known as Affirmative Action.

Answer 21

It is sad that only about 14% of the American population is African American, yet there are so many people who think we just have to have a black man in the oval office.  But I would definitely stay out of the urban areas if it is a close race and Obama loses...there will be riots.  (That should be the name of a movie...There Will Be Riots and I drink your milkshake!)  Of course, I'd much rather there be riots for a little bit and get to look at Palin for the next 4 years than there be no riots and look at Obama and Biden's mugs and watch the U.S. go more downhill than we already are.  

Answer 22

Sometimes I feel like conservatives are living in a dream world.  No, that will not happen, and I can't really understand why you all seem to be convinced that Obama supporters are all the kind of people that would do that.  Open your eyes, please, we're Americans just like you and just want the best for this country.  

However, if the Republicans STEAL the election again, there might be some problems.  

Answer 23

If there are riots and other types of  violence, it just shows people's ignorance and will be a turn for the worst for Democrats as a whole.  I am sure that everyday Democrats will find that sort of behavior disgusting if something like that were to happen.  Which is better:  acting like a civilized human being or acting like an idiot and harming people and property over something like an election?  You would expect that sort of thing out of a third world country that doesn't have a foundation of freedom and human rights--but this is AMERICA.  And people in this country should act like freedom-loving Americans, no matter which party you belong to.

Answer 24

Looks to me like no matter which way the election goes unfortunately their are bigots all over and racists on both sides of the issue I expect there will be problems from some group or groups no matter which way the election goes..Tons say they aren' t prejudice and yet they really are .When it boils down to it you have all kinds of nuts out there.There are those who don't want him and those who do.It will really make a mockery of what America is SUPPOSE to stand for.This is Her chance to show she is who she says she  really is.But some won't care they have their own narrow minded agenda.That family needs prayed for by everyone who wants justice and equality and I am asking God daily to cover them with protection.I am not a Democrat I am a Christian.

Answer 25

I doupt it. I think a lot of people who dislike him for certain reasons will be so happy if he loses, and I think the rest of America will be disappointed, but they'll still call Obama number one and hope that America wont be getting worse.

can u answer my multiple choice question: WHat would make you cheat on someone? I want to know what you think...

Thanks =]

Answer 26

Who cares? The best thing in that situation is that he is not elected and we will have a great president to take care of it!  

Answer 27

LOL I can't believe the people on here actually think that this is a dumb question. There may not be riots, but there will be a lot of black celebrities and black people saying that McCain only won because of race! Trust me, I'm black myself and I know that a lot of my black people like to play the race card and it's a d**n shame. But if he does win, I do think a lot of whites will think that it's only because of his "celebrity" fame, which is true.  

Answer 28

I don't know.  Didn't a closed session of congress arrange a safe haven for the politburo to hide when the US engages in civil war?

I would not be surprised.

Answer 29

You reap what you sew.

You'll be seeing these springing up everywhere...not that they aren't springing up daily anyhow...be scared...very scared!!!

It's a pity nobody cares about how they are perceived in the world, because right now people got their mouths hanging wide open in disbelief!!!!

Answer 30

Possibley, if theres riots then maybe alot of people wanted him to win hence they wouold have voted for him hence he would probably have won

Answer 31

I got to know this.

Are you related to Don Imus?

Religion & Spirituality, what a joke.
