Yes, it's sad, but no surprise at all. But, there is another intangible. How many are not voting for him just because he is black? I would bet far fewer.

I listened, and was not surprised. Most voters have no idea what the candidates stand for. Heck most of the Obama supporters in this forum think Obama is not going to tax them... He's just going to tax businesses. They will never feel the repercussions.

Maybe so, but I bet they at least know she is not running with Obama

I mean how stupid must you be to think Palin is Obama's VP?

So why do you think they are voting for Obama then if it is not race related?
They just agree'd to all of the policies of McCain.

Not that it matters at all, but I thought Obama was half white, while his father was mostly of Arabic heritage like many persons in Kenya.

So isn't his ethnic heritage more white and arabic than black? Not hating, just asking.

Regardless, its silly to vote for or against someone because they are black.

Kenya's In Africa. That makes him an African American, (at least half).

That's like calling a Christian from America a Catholic American.

There has been a weird push out there to make it seem like Obama's a Muslim Arab and not a Christian White/Black Guy from Iowa...

Race has nothing to do with my vote.

Because Bush and McCain are the same, hince the name, John McSame.

Just a few facts about Bush:

*Made people poor. He alone caused people to spend money they didn't have.
*No one supports the war HE started, regardless of the fact most of the nation originally did.
*Caused Hurricane Katrina and exploded levees to cause flooding.

We can only expect the same from McSame...

It sounds like Obama is not black enough to not vote for him because he's black...
