I agree with that statement even as a Obama supporter, but at the same time I'm glad thats what gave him the upperhand. Voting solely on skin color is not right at all, BUT I'm sure McCain had many (probably not nearly as many) but nonetheless I'm sure McCain still had white people vote for him just because Obama is black or because his middle name is Hussien, or because of the absurd conspiracies that he is a terrorist himself. I know I'm not of the majority here being for Obama, not even around my friends infact I was the only one out of my group who voted for Obama, but I'll stand by my decision wether he turns out to be great, bad or average.

When I first signed up, I was harassed pretty good by a few people. There were a few clicks of know-it-all's that harassed anyone who called them out. It's funny that today, they are banned. Oh well, don't take it personally. If you can help someone, do it. If you can't, do like Stealth.

Do you think that Obama and his staff are withholding the inauguration from country stations? Really?

This just show's everyone how much racism is alive in the world today all around. There were people at my work who voted for Obama only because he was black, and a lot vote for McCain because Obama was black. I didn't vote for Obama but I'm going to give him a chance and see what he does as president. It was a hard election for me because I didn't like either one of them I went with McCain just because I don't want my future kids, neices and nephews looking up to an ex-drugy as a role model. Hopefully he will get the country back on it's feet in about a year (I want to buy a house while the economy is in the dump but I'm waiting a year to pay off some bills).I know Obama is anti-gun but I believe he isn't going to take gun rights away.
