Do you think Obama will win?

Gossip and polls say yes but the biggest factor here is race. Personally I want him to win. Do you think racism or "white superiority" will stop him. As Jason told me there was currently the first woman President in Brazil so maybe the borders are breaking down.

First of all, you shouldn't even consider the race and gender of whoever is running for president. You should just look at what they say they're planning to do and their previous political background (I think I'm missing something.)

The fact that people are only considering to vote for Obama as president JUST because he's "black" and/or they want "white superiority" to end pisses me off a great deal (same deal with people only voting for Hillary because she's a woman). If people just vote for a person because they are "black" or "female", they're just as worse as the people who vote a "white" or "male" candidate, just because they're "white" or "male".

Sorry Argetina. Exactly! Obama could change the world into an utopia and a person will know it but when the ballot comes theyll pick someone else because they dont like black people.

.....


utopia? You're a moron. *smacks you*

By the way my previous message was directed to you, by the way.

I was saying I'm getting pissed off that some people are only voting Obama because he IS black. (same thing with Hillary being a woman) The people who only vote Obama because he is black are just as worse as the people who DON'T vote him because he is black.

Just because obama is "black" doesn't mean he's going to be the best president ever. And the president of the world can't make the world into a utopia. You're over exaggerating.

I personally don't think Obama would make such a great president. He'll be okay, but won't be the "best". But I think he's the best democrat running right now, so I do hope he wins.

Why does it MATTER if obama is black? So what? Is he gonna make a BETTER president BECAUSE he's black? Is he gonna be worse? NO! A person is a person.

Anyways, the ballots are about a YEAR from now, there could possibly be more and more and more candidates for president.

Off Topic but not off topic:

Steven Colbert is gonna run for president. What the hell? people shouldn't vote for him. (no, I'm not taking into fact that he's a comedian. Anybody could be the president no matter what their previous occupation was, if they qualify for presidency) I think he would make a shitty president. I've seen almost all of his public interviews and I'm going to read his book soon. And from all the information I've gathered about him and his running for presidency, is that HE DOESN'T TAKE THE JOB SERIOUSLY! Oh my GOD he thinks the biggest "ISSUE" we have is the the fact that people are prejudiced against gay people. Oh PLEASE, gay people are doing just fucking OKAY on their own. What about the people WHO STILL DON'T HAVE HOMES IN FUCKING NEW ORLEANS?! WHAT ABOUT THE WAR?UGH! He just dsklfjdsklfjds! Pisses me off!

Also, the borders have always been down.

There were PLEANTY of female rulers in the past.

Just because some of the many ignorant racist/sexist dumbasses of the present are slowly becoming more open to diversity, doesn't mean the borders "just" came down.

What I'm saying is that I think that people are going to vote him not to be President just because he is black. I'm not one of those people so I don't know why.

[The Kimmeth. >_>]

Well that's too bad if they don't vote him because he's black.

It's the voters who have to suffer for a bad president, so whatever.

Exactly!
