1911 United: Re-elect President Obama

[amIblue?]

Regarding the "like me" part of voting: if I heard a female say it once in 2008 about Sarah Palin, I heard it a gazillion times. To which I could only respond, "No, I like you; you're nothing like that nut."

Thanks to 1911 United for bringing so many issues to the forefront:

1. Obama is Black but is that why some people support him?
2. Sarah Palin may not be "like me."
3. Democrats and Republicans have stinky feet.

Yes and also add:

5. Race and ethnicity of candidates does not matter to "many of us" but it conveniently matters to "many of us...I mean, them."

LOL. That was always stupid.

Cain was on The View yesterday. I liked him more than I did the first time he was on The View. He has calmed down and seemed less antsy. I guess he will not provide me with more dumb quotes for my signature.

When I lived in Atlanta, I would occasionally tune in to Cain's radio show. I always thought that he said some things that I agreed with and some things that were crazy. Just like in his presidential campaign.

Straying out of my lane (being white and having voted for a black guy), the whole Cain thing just made me laugh. I worked for Godfather's in college and since leftover pizza kept me from starving to death I do have a certain warm spot for them. But that being said, the guy was, well, not good enough to be president. There is a subset of the Democrats who would have voted for Obama even if all the ridiculous things said about him WERE true, but the reverse is not true between Cain and the Republicans. Even if none of the stuff said about him were true, he'd only have the "vote for the black guy regardless" caucus and the goofy tax plan caucus among the Republicans. And after those 5 people who do you have?

I do not understand what this means in terms of what Ghostwriter is talking about.

If black voters want to support a candidate whose policies are good for the black community, or who has a proven track record of working for the black community, or whatever, of course it makes sense to do so. In the case of Obama, he also happens to be black himself.

[Trey_P-I_47]

I would say Ron Paul has a much better plan to help the black community than Obama ever dreamed of. Who can refute that fact when RP wants to get rid of all of the non violent prisoners and the obvious fact that there are disproportionaly more blacks per population than any other race incarcerated. This would lend credence to the fact that this man wants to help, I mean obviously that policy would help all people, but certainly it would effect the black communities the quickest and most noticeably. And thats just one small issue where he is a better choice than Obama. Doing away with an income tax and abolishing the FED and the IRS = instantly more money to spend in your pocket again helping the poorest people first which again helps the black community. Just saying, skin color is irrelevant when another man has superior policy.

I predict Obama will lose to Ron Paul if there is a head to head match-up. Even a large portion of the black community will turn away from Obama for some sensible policies.
