He'd be in a position to do so more than any other president because of HIS race, not in spite of.

As much as Clinton seemed to sympathize with issues pertaining to minorities, he couldn't possibly fully relate and effectively do what needs to be done in office for minorities because, well, he IS NOT one.

I haven't a problem with race organizations as long as they operate by empowering their race, not tearing down their own or another.

NAACP is effective at empowering Blacks in this country, whether it is by information or actions.

KKK is well, ineffective, because not only do they operate out of pure hatred, but they ACT upon that hatred to the detriment and destruction of others outside of their race.

Now that's one race orgranization whose destruction is LONG overdue.

Let's not forget that Barak Obama is half white, what used to be referred to as a mulatto (not a derogatory term, in case you are wondering). He has no choice but to be fair and balanced when it comes to racial issues.

Whether Fox is lying or not is irrelevant. What is is that America again is having to deal with the racism.

Thanks Obama and JW!!!!!
Do you think that's what running this country should be about?

Are you voting for Obama because he's black or because he's got what it takes to run this country...one that includes not only blacks, but whites, hispanics, orientals, Indians, Europeans, Africans, and Middle Eastern folks alike??

So the Hispanics won't get a fair shake until they have someone in the White House?

Maybe Obama will pick a Hispanic running mate. That would pretty much guarantee him the election. To have all the support he currently has, and to win over significant numbers of Latinos with a Hispanic running mate would put a definite whammy on any plans the Republicans have for keeping the White House. Plus, I think it would be cool! And if he picked a female Hispanic that would REALLY seal the deal!

Then what about the disenfranchising Asians?

The title and underlying premise of that other thread was ridiculous on its face.

Its the old tactic:
If you don't like the message, then blame the messenger.

WOW , this post is reverse racism at its best.

The NAACP is a joke, about like the ACLU...they are a money pit. Rob blacks of their money in return for alot of empty promises...reminds me of the Bakers....

And I hope your ready for the surprise of your life if Obama wins,

The day after he is inaugerated he will become the whitest black man you ever saw.

Mark my words




Fox news Rocks.

So.......I take it that you wouldn't be against a White Entertainment TV Channel as long as it empowered the white race without tearing down other races?

You wouldn't be against a White Miss America pageant?

What if a political organization was set up to empower white people that wasn't tearing down other races?

Are you telling me that you would have no problem with this? If not, why is it fair game for one race, but not fair for other races?

It's my opinion that race organizations such as these are what is making our racial problems worse. They exist to keep race on the forefront of the American mindset.

If america wants racial unity, all race-related organizations should be banned, IMHO!
