US ELECTION RESULTS THREAD...

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.

How do you manage to breathe without assistance?

What difference does your genetics have on your religious leanings? I'll give you a clue.....none.

yes, it was just saying he had a black Muslim Kenyan dad (and Muslim Indonesian step dad) as documented and your blood line is down the paternal route.:cool:

please don't take it literally;)

I don't know what religion he is :confused:
 
Having just watched his concession speech I have a lot of respect for John McCain. He come across as a really decent guy, who was just surrounded by morons in his campaign.

+1:D

and I think,in the end , he is relieved ,because now he could get away from all those nuts ,eheh

He's black, just look at him.

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!
 
Just because hes totally against the war in iraq doesnt mean that hes even going to concider pulling troops out or reducing numbers anytime soon at all.

I think Bush has already done that.
 
Wow, what's the point in democracy when people vote for their leader purely because of their race.

Wow. Just, wow.

Its unbelievable. Black people had been oppressed for decades. Despite what rights black people now have, there is still a racism problem in America towards this minority group.

As such, many black people would like to see an end to this. One way around it might be by having a respectable black person in office.

And now you are telling me its racist that they are voting for Obama because he is black? No, please... you are joking?

I'm gobsmacked.

Wow.
