Let's vote for Barack because he's Black. Nevermind the issues!

[masterhong]

The stupidity involved is self-evident, as are the comments that agree with this unworthy motivation to vote for someone.

*Awaits the inevitable retaliation from the resident militants.

Yet, we are the most American of Americans. No one has paid more for their citizenship than us. But every four years we kneel before the next bloated white man and offer our souls in exchange for a promise we KNOW will never be honored.

Now here we have, after 400 years, a real chance to do what white people do ALL. THE. TIME. We get to vote for the guy who most looks like us! And we have a hot pisses chance in hell of it actually mattering!

And we don’t want to do it because we do not want to be “pigeonholed”? We don’t want to just go for the black guy because he is black. All of sudden negroes care about a damn policy?!

She's right.

Let me tell you something. There are white folks who actually voted for Bush because he seemed like a great guy to have over for a barbecue. White folks vote for an ex-Klansman because they like his hair. White folks vote straight Republican, regardless of the issues, because God told them too.
True too. I've seen it with my own two eyeballs.

ah yes, that is true. The natives are the the most American of Americans and did get screwed more.

I think, to some extent, every non-white group in this country gets fucked. I hate to sound like an angry white-hating racist, but white people really don't understand how good they have it in this country.

Pre-troll attacks, someone posted something about a stupid potential pet owner, and I mentioned this girl who would let her "rescued" pets out into the street when they weren't cute anymore. Well, this is the same person who voted for George W. Bush because she thought he was "cute". I hope she's dead.
