You consider that exceptions and outliers. I do not.

Why is that food for thought? Think about why YOU think that is food for thought. There is something embedded in the mere suggestion that this would be food for thought.

What is embedded in that suggestion makes your "exceptions" and "outliers" no longer so, including for yourself.

All the pot/kettle irony here, and me without my cyberfood. *Sigh*

I totally missed the "many of us." LOL. My bad.

"Many of us" are..."many of us" are not...this is one of those topics where every side of the issue has "many of us."

Nobody has won the Republican nomination yet, first of all. Secondly, they would have done the same thing because they are Obama supporters.

Your food for thought does not nourish me.

I feel you and I was wrong. I already admitted to that, with an apology.

Girl please, the same thing applies to you, with some of the disrespectful shit you've posted to me.

Au contraire, fellow Black person, 1911 United would obviously be befuddled and perplexed because they were clearly desperate to find a Black person...ANY Black person to support...with TWO Black people to support...whattado?! Whattado?! If Herman Cain was still running and eventually won the Republic nomination (he was never a viable candidate and is no longer running, but let's humor Ghostwriter since he wanted some food for thought), there would be a Black folks riot in the streets as Blacks struggled to process such a Black-on-Black crime. Clearly, the fact that 1911 United are not only supporters of President Obama but probably staunch Democrats would not matter. Having a Black GOP candidate would ruin the equation.

Like Beyonce said, 1 + 1 = 2. What do Black folks do when there are 2?! 2?! 2222222222222....*echo*

For those who do not see the irony, it is humorous to claim that race and ethnicity are not a factor for "many of us," and that it is only the exception, but then to offer food for thought that implies the exact opposite.

Definitely quotable.

Well, it doesn't imply the exact opposite -- methinks the food for thought was about "many of them," not "many of us."

That food for thought was about Ghostwriter's own assumptions. His own assumptions makes it about him and not about them.

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.

Should we add to the list

4. Psi U MC Vito is not white

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."

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.
