My point #5: Obama is the best person to govern Americans of all races

[ObamaAmerican]

His biracial heritage makes white people have confidence in him, and black people see their tribulations in him as well. His personal suffering and struggle at the boarding school in Hawaii and Columbia Univ. is well documented - all the harassment in such a humiliating environment for a colored young child. In spite of all this, he persevered and went on to great success. His life story will be revered and cherished by generations to come - along with Nelson Mandela and Martin Luther King.

America's power structure is still dominated by whites. But this is changing at the speed of light as he is clearly well accepted (may I say adored) by white Americans. His current popularity dwarfs JFK - just take a look at your TV.

3. Christ grab a violin

Is he going to walk on water next, we are seriously getting into cult nutjob territory. Hitler was a great captivating speaker too, didnt make me like him any better. We are voting for a President, not someone whose voice you like listening too.

Has everyone lost their frigging minds when it comes to vetting candidates.

4. Obama thinks gays can be "cured" of homosexuality.

He allowed his bud McClurkin to preach about how praying cured him of his homosexuality at an official Obama event.

That kind of ape shit crazy, backwoods ignorant, bigotry has no place in America. We've had 7 years of that from Bushco.

Barack has done nothing to address this issue, and stating that you don't necessarily agree with everything a person says doesn't fix it. He still gave McClurkin the opportunity and the audience to express his feelings, which were insulting to all gay people.

That makes Barack Obama UNFIT for the Presidency.

5. cured of homosexuality?

7. You are sure piling it on thick today

8. colored? Ugh.

I support Obama, but what tripe. He didn't suffer in Hawaii and it wasn't a boarding school. He evidently had a great time there and anyone familiar with Hawaii knows that mixed heritage folks are common there.

And this isn't some popularity contest. It's a race for President at a critical juncture in our history.

Thanks for representing Obama supporters in such a revolting, saccharine and vacuous way.
