US ELECTION RESULTS THREAD...
- Thread starter Spit
- Start date
I would have voted for Obama, but looking at this graph it's clear some ethnic groups only chose him because of his colour! You can hardly call white america racist as it was almost 50-50:
Looking at that graph I'd say it's not white america that's the racist group at all...

How do you know that all those black people voted for him because he is black? I guess you can read their minds
. I'm sure all the white people that voted for Bush voted for him because he is white. And saying it's almost 50-50 for the whites is daft, white people make up the vast majority of the US population so you can't just go ZOMG BIGGER BAR!!1.I'm sure that there was an element of black people voting because he is black, but I'm sure that there is also a lot of white people that were against him for the same reason.
Yeh watching that McCain seems like a decent bloke. Shame about his supporters!

how can she say he is a terrorist with no evidence?! Crazy, although George W was much the same
A number of comments Obama has made about foreign affairs concern me though, but actions speak louder than words
Which comments concern you because I like his ideas on foreign affairs.

Wow, what's the point in democracy when people vote for their leader purely because of their race.

Looks like every country around the world is now trying to claim that his ancestors came from theirs.
Even so, the % of blacks voting democrats this election has increased.

but was slighty higher for bill clinton.
According to Wiki 83% and 84% of blacks voted for Clinton in 1992 and 1996 respectively, compared to the 95% who voted for Obama
What lol?
How is that a relevent stat when Clinton never ran for president against a black man?
Actually if you want to get technical Mr. Obama is brown not black
On a more serious note I'm just glad G. W. Bush has gone, to this day still cannot understand how that bloke ever got to be president and for two terms, unbelievable.
One more thing, i will be interested to see how Obama deals with the Iraq issue, he has said he is totally against the war in Iraq, so does that mean come jan when he's officially in power, the first step or next step will be to get the US troops out of Iraq....
I mean it will be really interesting to see how he handles this situation, because you cannot just abandon Iraq, there are many factions, groups in Iraq now, think how bad it will become if he pulls the forces out of Iraq, these extremist groups will grow etc...its only going to become a rogue state and get worse.
Obama has many key issue's to deal with the economy as well, its not going to be easy.

its hard to believe that in this day and age that people can still be so narrow minded about things.
I cant help thinking that Obama is the fall guy. Bring him in at the most difficult time for america, where its back is against the wall...
and when america falls from its place they will blame it on the black president and they wont ever let that happen again!

I think Bush has already done that.
