It has nothing to do with "white pride" and everything to do with bigotry against blacks.

Thank you and bravo!

They are both examples of bigotry.

No, they are not both being bigoted. Bigotry is defined as: "stubborn and complete intolerance of any creed, belief, or opinion that differs from one's own." These blacks have been voting for whites for decades! When was the last time you heard a bunch of blacks saying "I ain't voting for Clinton, Dean, Gore, or Kerry because that dude is white!"? Answer: NEVER. They may always vote Democrat, but never vote against a Democrat because he's white.

Now they have a black guy running and winning, so they are voting for him... not against him. The whites with the racial bigotry issues aren't voting for Clinton. The polling data shows pretty clearly that her nonapproval and distrust ratings would normally result in clear loser. They are voting for her because they refuse to vote for a black guy. If Obama weren't running, all those blacks would be lining up to vote for Edwards or Clinton.

If you ever get into a debate about the "merits" of Obama'a campaign and someone accuses you of being a racist because of your views, just tell them that you were ragging on his white half.

I want to know what happened to the black community I used to know. When a black guy in town inherited a gas station from the white owner he had worked for for years and who had no family, the place was closed within months. Whites kept going there, but none of the local blacks would give the guy a penny because they resented him getting that gas station. I thought for sure that blacks would turn against Obama the same way, but something sure has changed.

Huh... so all those "the party of old white men" comments about the Republicans didn't really say "white" in them?

Now they have a black guy running and winning, so they are voting for him... not against him. The whites with the racial bigotry issues aren't voting for Clinton.

I think you're missing the point. When you use race as a deciding factor, you're a racist. It doesn't matter if you use race as a reason TO do something, or a reason NOT TO do something, you're still using race as a deciding factor.

So, voting FOR or AGAINST Barry for being bi-racial is equally racist.
