You mean the same Obama that specifically used racism as a means to get elected in the first place? His first campaign was based around the novelty of a black man getting into the White House, it encouraged minorities to get you and vote for Obama because he was black, not because he was the best man for the job.

Yup, there's racism, but a lot of it comes from minorities.

we don't elect the best man for the job, we elect the best one running.

You're the poster stating we can't get beyond racism. What evidence do you have to support this or that our current situation is not being exasperated by other so-called racists?

Good evening, AP.:2wave:
I can't stay long; I'm going out to reduce the lobster population tonight. Just thought I'd warn you that even the "evidence" can't be trusted.

If you will spend a little time reading the posts on this and other online forums you will find plenty of evidence of racism, bigotry, homophobia, misogyny and xenophobia.

Yes, and most of it is fomented not by the right but the left. I won't deny that there are assholes on both sides, but there is only one that needs it to continue its existence...

And yet you leave out the Black Panthers. I'm not blind, and I can recognized that neither of these groups are the problem with the current race situation in the country. When you come to realize race is a money making industry in this country, you might begin to understand...

Had I thought of the Black Panthers I might have mentioned them as well. The point is the same, racism is alive and well.

Racism is a bit like porno, you know it when you see it. Racism is also like violence, it's not going away. All you can do is deal with it honestly, something we don't do in this country.
