Obama supporters met with racism

Race based actions are not in keeping with the American concept of equality.
How is voting "for" Obama because he's black different than voting "against" him because he's not white?

Second, they are supporting someone based on his race and discriminating or being prejudiced against him. The white voters on the other side of the debate who are refusing to vote for him because he's black fail both of those tests.

So, when an ad says "the discriminating buyer purshases our brand", they mean what?

Bru, discrimination is discrimination. When you are prejudiced based upon race, as you defined racism, you are racist. If that is a prejudice for, or a prejudice against, it's still a prejudice.

We won't get into whether blacks are voting in the primary race at a higher or lower level than precedent would demonstrate, which may (or may not) undermine your statement that there has been no demonstrated tendency for blacks not to vote for whites. That's a whole different issue, and I'm not going to go there. But, using race as a determining factor (for or against) is racist.

with a 98% of the black population voting for Obama, it would appear they've refused to votew for the white she-devil

Event A: More blacks move to Waldorf.

Event B: Crime goes up.

I'm not saying or insinuating in any way that crime's going up because the black population is going up, nor am I saying blacks are the only people committing crimes.

That said, you can see why there is concern, can't you?

I was deeply offended by Rev. Wright's comments, but it's a non-factor to me when it comes to Obama. I went to church and I remember Bill Simpson helping me out a great deal during the worst times of my life. I don't know or care what his politics are. I wouldn't throw him under the bus for it.

The election isn't about Rev. Wright's political views. It's about Barack Obama's views.



The whole Wright story was trumped up by the Clinton-supporting left wing media and by Republicans. It's a non-issue.

Maybe I'm just naïve, but I’ve never felt uncomfortable at the Waldorf mall. I have felt uncomfortable at the Iverson mall and at the Caps Blvd for that matter; but never at the Waldorf mall. Have all of you had bad experiences at the Waldorf mall, or are you just saying that because there are allot more people there who don’t look like you?? I just funny that every time someone on this board mentions Waldorf, its not too long after that we are getting all the “Ghetto” comments and such

See this is how lies are spread, 98% of blacks are not voting for Obama. Please don't believe the hype.

Did I say Waldorf mall? Did I say anything about the Waldorf mall?

I said Waldorf. I've been through the worst parts of PG and DC. Waldorf don't scare me. That said, the increase in crime in Waldorf cannot be denied by anyone with a brain in their head.

I said the mall, Andy!

Yes, it's due to experiences. And, quite frankly, there were no black people involved. That's my whole point - I don't care who is doing the crime, just that the crimes are being done. And, if you compare crime stats, I think you'll agree that (compared to sleepy little St. Mary's County) the crime is significantly more violent, and frequent.

Well like I said maybe I'm just naive, because I don't see Waldorf as being any worst then any other heavily populated city in America. Andy, have you ever been a victim of crime in Waldorf??

He replied to my post with his comment on Waldorf Mall.

In fact, he quoted my post yet said nothing even remotely related to my post.
