You "voted for him" and admit it??? Wow, that is scary

:thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup: How silly, stupid and naïve for Obama to get directly involved in this. Bill Clinton must be laughing his ass off. This could be the start of Obama's downfall and I voted for him because I thought he was the better of three evils. I think a lot of white folks are getting tired of all the black racism toward those 'white cracker asses'.

I agree. If you are born here you are an American. I don't care to be known as a Dutch, German, French, Polish American. Just an American would be fine.

Kudos Magic. I agree wholeheartedly. When my great granparents came here in1905 they ceased being Italian. From that day forward they considered themselves and raised their children to be, proud Americans.

The distinction of ethnic origin, my Northern friend is not out of context. Every group identifies their origin. All who are born in America are truly Americans. It's all about what word you choose to make that identification. When I first wrote, I didn't call myself Negro, yet you decided that's what you wanted to label me as. It doesn't really matter what you call me as long as you treat me fairly. Here is a fact you probably have not considered...Africans were the only ethnic group brought to this country against their will. Now that we have made our contribution to building this nation, free labor to the economy, fighting in wars to secure and protect freedoms, we are considered a burden to "Americans". Africa is the land of my heritage but not of my birth. I reject anyone's response to go to a land not of my birth simply because I recognize that dark skin color is perceived by some as inferior and undesirable.

I understand how those of your situation come to the conclusions you do but I refute your conclusions. White people in the US today accept any acceptable black person. What is an acceptable black person? The same as an acceptable white person but with darker skin and to many with perhaps more desireable and attractive physical attributes. Many whites and blacks are integrating and enjoying life together and raising children together. Many top corporate CEO's are black today. Your take is not fair. I truly believe the white community embraces our black citizens and will strongly step forward to make certain they feel comfortable and share affection with us. It is unfortunate you do not share these feelings and instead dwell upon our rejection of the scumbags of your race among us. You forget that we reject the white scumbags just as readily while jealously trying to protect the dignity of those like yourself. I reject President Obama's shopping trip bullshit hallucination as his problem. Not mine. He is demonstrating paranoia even though millions of whites have proven their acceptance of him.

Obama continues to add fuel to the fire. He hopes to use this case to further his anti-gun agenda.

Just last night a young white man was walking down the street in St. Louis after he said hello to a black man he got the crap beat out of him. So where is the outrage, where is the DOJ? If the young man defended himself and killed his attacker the press, the NAACP, Jesse Jackson, Al Sharpton and Obama's DOJ would be all over this case!

I appreciate your honest response. I did qualify my assertions by saying "some". Unfortunately some of that "some" are in positions of great economic and political power. I did not intend to imply that Blacks are all depressed and suppressed, we have come a long way from the market squares. After all, the President of the United States is a Black man. I just find it odd that because of his unique identity that he is vilified for expressing a position whose situation he shares with so many who look like him.

Throw a little dark skin in that pot and tell me how American you feel.


The only African American I have ever known was white. He was born in Africa and became an American Citizen. He talked funny...
