    I only see whites being insecure in this thread. What does calling themselves African American have to do with being insecure. most black people just call themselves black. I can tell you don't know to many black people. I'm not black.

    He's not exactly "sitting home." He's still out campaigning for Republicans.....Newt, I think. BTW, there are several out of the running now; others are white. So, what's your point?

    You mean....other than the fact that before each election Democrat leaders....black and white.... go into all-black churches and scare them with statements like, "Republicans are trying to keep you from voting?" Ask yourself these questions.......for decades AA have voted in the 90 percentile for the Democrat party. And yet here they are as a group......high unemployment, high incarceration rate, high birth rate of children with no father present in the home.....and still down in many ways. So, what in the world has the Democrat party done for that group....other than "keep them down and
    out" and as if they don't have a brain to think for themselves. Per Democrats.....all AA's should all think alike. I can think of nothing more racist than that kind of an attitude.

    You tell that story to blacks and see if they come running to your side. You will be waiting awhile or forever.

    I also think that, if you think that is a winning argument to black Americans, you ought to go into those black churches and tell them that... you ought to tell them that they have been duped as a socio-economic group by the democratic party. Tell them that they have all been too stupid to see how the democrats have been using them. Go ahead.

    Key word....

    40% of white people voted for Obama. 3% of blacks voted for McCain.

    Those are the only 2 statistics I need to see.

    What does that have to do with 95% of an entire race voting for Obama?

    That 95% of a race voted for the white guy. It is the same thing. Do I really have to explain this to you guys?

    Yes, cause 95% of whites didn't vote for McCain. It is a completely different stat to say 95% of those that voted for McCain were white, and 95% of all backs voted for Obama. if 95% of whites voted for McCain, then McCain would be POTUS.

    I may have phrased it incorrectly in that post. 95% of the people that voted for McCain were probably white.

    That is still not the same as 95% of all blacks voted for Obama.

    I am pretty sure he isn't, because he is probably trying to avoid his wife who wants to know about the woman he had on the side that he was giving money to.

    Newt was probably the one that put his business in the street, shows how big of a fool he is.

    Where are they running to?

    you forget..Obama is half black..the half he's chosen to exploit. So, in reality, a white candidate, or 'half white' did.

    I have no clue what a future republican will do for race relations. I feel very strongly that Bush Jr was incredible in that regard. It was clear if you look at his cabinett and top posts, that race meant nothing to him...and that's a good thing (you know what I mean). Likewise, he showed strong leadership after 9/11 embrasing moderate muslims and condeming radicals. Obama can't even bring himslef to define what a radical muslim is. Obama serves himself and his agenda, but I believe the Republican candidates will serve the nation. Service to the nation can result in all kinds of national healing. I hope.

    You guys have obviously never met a black person in real life..they are all racists. They only care about their race, only go see movies with black actors like denzel and only vote for blacks...blacks are the most racist race in the world.and this is also proven because they segregate themselves by only going to an all black church.

    they only vote for blacks? really? are you saying that no blacks voted for presidential candidates between the emancipation proclamation and 2008?

    And I wonder how many whites go to an all white church?

    Barack Obama was a member of a United Church of Christ congregation. That denomination traces its roots to the pilgrims and the puritans.... not to mention the dutch reform church and the early frontier Christian Church. I belong to that denomination and we have many many racially diverse congregations in it.

    I think your white hood is showing.

    Oh but you do for democrats.

    Why because he had a few in his cabinet, but he didn't do a (*)(*)(*)(*) thing for it on the streets.

    No, I don't know what you mean. As I said before he didn't give a (*)(*)(*)(*) about those on the street.

    Yep, invading Iraq while Bin Laden was in Afghanistan.

    Can you bring yourself to define what a radical christian is.

    That is pretty much what every president serves, if they didn't we would all be in the same party.

    We all believe in something.

    Hope in one hand and take a dump in the other one, and see which one fills up the fastest.
