Am I the only one who thinks mccain just ain't white enough?
Edited on Sat Aug-02-08 06:28 AM by Philosoraptor
I mean, where does he really stand on white supremacy? He's always hinting around the edges, but how do I know for sure that he will carry on our nation's long-standing white supremacist agenda?

Why is he being so cagey and vague about it? I can't tell half the time if he's a white supremacist or not, why doesn't he just come out and say it clearly and plainly and settle it once and for all?

Is he being deliberately cloudy on the issue of white supremacy in America for political reasons? Is it because he's running for president, cause if it is, clearing up his position on white supremacy would certainly take many voters over the fence toward his side, if he would only just come right out and either admit it or deny that he supports our nation's traditional white supremacist platform.

I look forward with great anticipation to voting for a white man, and I want my vote to count, how can mccain convince me once and for all that he stands firm on the subject of white supremacy in America?

White and paranoid in Dumbfuckistan.

4. Do you suppose Strom Thurmond was his daddy?
That would be a problem for him.

8. McCain's wife
Edited on Sat Aug-02-08 07:09 AM by badgolfer
Why is Cindy McCain almost always by the Senators side during his campaign? I have never seen where a candidates wife is always there and giving the intro. Does the Senator need the security? Just think if Michelle was always by Senator Obama's side.

9. The reason
...is they believe they can put his wife out there and make a comparison to Obama's wife.

Michelle has been portrayed in a negative light, so by putting McCain's wife out there, they subtley say, "where is Obama's wife".

12. More like a traveling nurse, if you ask me.
The old goat (him) is likely to keel over at any moment.

14. Making sure no lobbyists disguised as Younger Cindy get too close.
He clearly can't be trusted on the campaign trail...

10. He's plenty white enough, for me. He takes talks about "white" issues,
takes the "white" side of more ambiguous issues, and tries to only appeal to whites.

I don't think he has to explicitly take a position on white supremacy. I think that white supremacists know exactly where he stands. Sure, he appears before the NAACP and the Urban League, but he does it with a "wink".

As for the "other guy" you are like me in wondering whether he stands for racial supremacy or not. If he does, which of his races does he want to be supreme? He seems to want to represent "everyone" (meaning all races, I guess) and you know that is a crock.

Do not fear. In this election you can finally "vote white" (after all these years) and know what you are getting. ;)

11. Really. Will he deliver his first post-convention speech in Philadelphia, Mississippi?
It helped Reagan with his white supremacist bona fides.
