People voted for Obama in order to not be racists
America still has a race problem,though not the one that conventional wisdom would suggest:the racism of whites toward blacks. Old fashioned white racism has lost its legitimacy in the world and become an almost universal disgrace.
The essence of our new “post-modern”race problem can be seen in the parable of the emperor’s new clothes. The emperor was told by his swindling tailors that people who could not see his new clothes were stupid and incompetent. So when his new clothes arrived and he could not see them,he put them on anyway so that no one would think him stupid and incompetent. And when he appeared before his people in these new clothes,they too—not wanting to appear stupid and incompetent—exclaimed the beauty of his wardrobe. It was finally a mere child who said,“The emperor has no clothes.”
The lie of seeing clothes where there were none amounted to a sophistication—joining oneself to an obvious falsehood in order to achieve social acceptance. In such a sophistication there is an unspoken agreement not to see what one clearly sees—in this case the emperor’s flagrant nakedness.
America’s primary race problem today is our new “sophistication”around racial matters. Political correctness is a compendium of sophistications in which we join ourselves to obvious falsehoods (“diversity”) and refuse to see obvious realities (the irrelevance of diversity to minority development). I would argue further that Barack Obama’s election to the presidency of the United States was essentially an American sophistication,a national exercise in seeing what was not there and a refusal to see what was there—all to escape the stigma not of stupidity but of racism.
Like Forest Gump's Momma says stupid is as stupid does.
That's right James. This man has no experience. He's just a puppet on a string. He's just the right color. This man,even as a Senator did nothing worthy of running for President. And to top it all off,he has an agenda against America.
IMPEACH OBAMA CAMPAIGN IN 2010

I agree..have you checked out Bilderberg Group. OBAMA AND HILLARY attended the last meeting to setup the US to FALL..I'd say that is TREASON!
The article reads correctly,putting Obama in office was simply all about Race,everyone knew he was not qualified for the job and now he has proven that statement to be true. He is an arrogant,narcissistic egomaniac and a bully to boot! He is to good to wear a tie on National TV while standing behind the sacred Presidential seal? He looked like he needed a shower,many that voted him into office which they had a "do over!."
"OOO"has committed many treasonous acts since he took office. The Impeach Obama Campaign which I've mentioned shows on their web page the treason done against America. And he continues to bring this country to ruination.
You are so right,Karen! Obama is a legend in his own mind,deluded into thinking himself "King of the World!"He is simply an arrogant,elitist S.O.B. from the corrupt bowels of Chicago –pushed to where he is by the wrong kind of racism! That is,white people voting for him to make themselves feel "hip"and modern! And because there are so many of those fellow white voters,we are stuck with this incompetent BOZO and his Democratic senate mob of useless twerps –UNTIL NOV. 2010,WHEN THE REAL PATRIOTS IN THIS COUNTRY RISE UP AND KICK THE BUMS OUT OF THE CONGRESS AND SENATE IN THE MID-TERM ELECTIONS,AND OBAMA AND HIS CROWD OF RIFF-RAFF CRONIES GET THEIR BUTTS KICKED IN 2012! THAT INCLUDES THAT INSUFFERABLE MICHELLE,WHO NEEDS 30 ATTENDANTS AND A SEPARATE PLANE TO FLY ALL OVER THE WORLD ALONG WITH HUBBY! THE FASTER WE "FLIP THE (WHITE) HOUSE",THE BETTER! ALL IN FAVOR,SAY "AYE!""AYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYEEEE!!!!!"
YAAY Marybeth for that exhilarating patriotic speech!!! HORAAAY!!!! We'll lick em in 2010….by golly by gum. People are rising up all over this country to do just that. Praise God!
