If being an old white man wasn't the norm in politics, then McCain would have THAT conversation thrust upon him. How the hell do you avoid that? Lie? Is Obama supposed to say that he ISN'T black, despite visual evidence to the contrary?
If you have such criteria, than I suppose we will never have a president that isn't a white male lawyer. |
He wouldn't have to have the "race" conversation thrust into his face if he wasn't such a racist nutcase. The guy has spent 20 years surrounding himself with black afrocentrist lunatics like his wife and his pastor and now he wants people to pretend it doesn't exist? He is a liar, he's been saying all along that he wants his campaign not to be about race issues etc, and yet thats exactly what he brings to the table. He couldn't even disown or quit the church he's going to that specializes in black racism. Instead he justified it by claiming his grandmother once said racist things to him. Its fucking absurd, you want to vote for a guy who will toss his grandmother under a bus (the woman who RAISED HIM when his mother and father weren't around) so he can defend his fellow racist asshole pastor? NO FUCKING WAY!
