There were definitely people that voted for him cause he was black...don't give the common voter too much credit ! They don't' follow politics except right before the election.

So does that mean that some people made sure they didn't vote for him because he was black or that others voted for the other guy because he was white?

Electing the first black President was supposed to end racism ! Or so I was told.

A lot of people in the media made a big deal about it.

So if we elect Hillary we will end sexism. Only makes sense.

If you asked most black voters, yeah, they levered cause he was black. And he's a Democrat. A party most black voters wind up in statistically.

And here's where Nausi comes in and affirms that black people are racist, QED, it's all over now, surrender your duel disk and hand over your star chips. You win Yami, just spare my friends. I like them not Shadow Realm'd.

Or maybe the historical significance of a black man, in America, a country noted for slaving said individuals for the better part of 3 centuries, elevating a black dude to the most powerful position on Earth brings a sense of catharsis in many black people (globally) regardless of political leanings.

But what do I know!

Only when we elect the first Native American president will the cycle be complete.

When Hillary gets elected I'll be the first to say feminism wins.

Actually feminism will be worse if she gets elected...sadly.

If the census is correct the 2% of (total population) Native Americans alive would be happy about that !

Merkel is 60, most powerful lady in Germany.
Thatcher was like 55 and finished her term at like 60something.
McCain was like 72 running for POTUS?
Our Supreme Court Justices are how old again?

This is a non-issue. Reagan was staring down dementia in office and that was npnp, savior status and all.

It's a huge issue. Her face is turning in on itself at at alarming rate. She will never make it through the primaries.

Let's face facts, Reagan's dementia probably started before his first term...but he looked damned good on that horse and chopping wood and ***

So, why can't the Republicans present a non-white guy for POTUS if this is such an underhanded Democratic tool?
They did once, democrats panicked though, had to do some political assassination on him

What made him a qualified candidate?

Also, how was it the democrats? The other republicans running against him tore him up nice and good before he ever really became an issue. Also, himself.

His native american name is now "Chokes in the clutch"

I had a friend that worked on his 08 campaign so I am a little biased...

But love him or hate him, obama ran one hell of a campaign in '08 he knocked out hildog and the gop and made it look easy.

See I think romney has the same problem hillary has.

A lot of people SAID they were going to vote for him...but none of them actually pulled the lever down when they had the chance...

Are people here really contesting that voting for Obama was sold to many people as an end to racism in America?

Anyone remember moochelle telling everyone that for the first time in her life she was "proud of her country"?

Fools.

All that hate against the President and then when the time comes to take action, it's time to eat cheese curls and finish that Bud Light?


Sounds American.

I think we've established over and over again who the fool is here Nausi... You're so far gone you'd even try to refute undeniable evidence sitting in front of your face if you didn't agree with it.

it goes way deeper than that.... you're probably too young to remember mondale/ferraro ticket in 84

nobody voted for mondale NOBODY! it was a massacre. he had to cheat and fudge the numbers so it looked like he won in his home state of Minnesota.

" narrowly won his home state over incumbent President Ronald Reagan by just 3,761 votes, giving him his only state victory in the election"

How's that for a final score? 49-1 better luck next time ***-wipe, we secretly never liked you anyways!
