If it is policies, then why is it okay when Dubya Shrub does it and NOT okay when the black president does it? What other conclusion should someone draw from that observation?
W's executive orders are better than Barrack's?

I agree with you on this one Mike! I didn't like most of W's policies either! Thats what is frustrating me! This isn't a black or white issue. It has been made that way. Perhaps it is something that JUST cannot be avoided! If so racism is a 2 way street in this nation. Perhaps racism is something that is just a fact of life!

Oh, there are black racists who hate whitey, no doubt about it.
I've dealt with my share of them.
I keep trying to look at things from a neutral position and understand "why?"

Mark did you not read further where I said it has been made that way? It has been made that way IMO because whether you like it or not the LARGEST % of folks voted for him because he's black its just the "way it is"!

well, jeff...that's precisely what i'm talking about. one breath you say "it ISN'T a black and white issue" and next you say "the only reason MOST people voted for him is 'cos he's black"!
i'm curious what you base that second assertion on. did you take a poll or see one that confirms that? or is it something you heard or read somewhere secondhand?
myself and everyone i know who voted for obama did so because they thought he was a better option for this country, because they didn't like romney, and/or because are suspicious of repubs and their failed policies.
sorry, i don't know ONE person who voted for obama BECAUSE he was black.
mind you i'm not saying there's NO ONE who based their vote on that but "most people" .....no way, son.
