I read a news article last night which purports that racism with regards to African Americans is actually up in the U.S. since 2008. I suspect there are many folks whose real issue with President Obama is that he is a black man, they just won't admit it.
you deserve a Nobel prize for this post.....very true..but no none of the conservative idiots on here will EVER admit that this is the case...
President Obama was born in Hawaii and people tried to de-legitimize him by saying he had no experience and that he was not even a citrizen...utterly preposterous since anyone with a brain knows the FBI and the NSA thoroughly vet everyone who runs for national office...IF HE WASN'T A CITIZEN DON'T YOU THINK THE FBI OR NSA WOULD HAVE SAID SOMETHING AND DISQUALIFIED HIM?
?
yet no one questioned JOHN MCCAIN even though HE WAS BORN IN PANAMA. yes he was born on American soil in panama but he was born in a foreign country,,....Obama was born on U.S. soil....and the funny thing is that many of the same Repubs who castigated Obama wanted to change the rule so Schwarzenegger could run and become president....
And the same people who said Obama had no experience (meaning that he was black) started waving the pompoms when Sarah Palin who is an idiot and had even less experience than Obama, ran for vice prez....
AMAZING
