No, while his opinions haven’t changed, he is only ranting and raving like a little child who didn’t get his special toy. Starving for attention and willing to go to any means to make his voice heard. I wouldn’t take him too seriously.

and last night on the news, they had a guy who put up a sign saying OBAMA is and ape, and they caught two “white people” who planned to kill 100 people and assasinate obama

BOTH SIDES have stupid people supporting them

The best part of it all, was Obama never ONCE played the race card. He never even mentioned the color of his skin once while campaigning. :tup:

and how many texts did you get saying “Early voting has obama in the lead but that will change when white people get out of work”.

I got that one a few times.

+1.  
Exactly how I feel. My statement regarding the speaking ability was nothing more than a shot at Bush. And, well, at Mavericks around the world.

Just because someone voted the opposite of what you did doesn’t make them an uneducated voter.

Regarding the huge support from “African Americans” voting for Obama simply because of the race-card, I also feel that it’s not right to vote for that reason alone.  
I will not, however, think less of Obama simply because most of the hispanic and black people in America got off of their asses, stopped bitching about change and never doing anything about it, registered to vote, and followed through with it.  
That ALONE shows a whole new form of motivation in America… Maybe some stereotypes will finally be broken?

This is how I feel also. I’m hopeful that we can regain our place in global society, that we can be generally “accepted” internationally.
