Obama Strategy Revealed: Vote for Me! I’m Black

Breitbart and the AFP run a whole article that only tells us one thing, Barack Obama is BLACK. For Pete’s sake! Barack, buddy, WE KNOW. It really doesn’t change anything. The people I know who will not vote for Obama are basing their decision on the fact that he is a liberal, who would drag our country down. Black, white, female, Italian, Mormon, none of these things matter in the long run. What does matter is where each candidate stands on the issues. Do they answer questions differently depending on who they are talking to? (Clinton) Do they make a huge issue of their race, as if being the first black president is more important than being a good president? (Obama) Are they insane little twerps? (Kucinich!) Do they run as Republicans yet espouse liberal views on gays, abortion and guns? (Giuliani) Are they perpetual losers who campaign for the presidency every four years when everyone knows they haven’t a prayer of ever winning? (Biden, Dodd) Do they hide behind their spouse?(Edwards) Or do her “accomplishments” amount to nothing more than riding her husband’s coattails and beating off the bimbos that he chases like a cat after a mouse? Is his greatest accomplishment a blatant restriction of free speech? (McCain)
With the 2008 election a bare year away I have no idea who will get my vote. The democrat candidates scare me, but, I am less than impressed by the republican field so far.
What I do know, is my vote will not be based on the person’s physical appearance for one very simple reason: You cannot tell whether a person is good or bad by looking at them, and to try is foolish. I am sick of hearing about Hillary Clinton being a woman, we KNOW. I don’t care about Edwards’ hair, I’ve had a flattop for 20+years and look down on men who spend more time on their hair than their wives do. That Giuliani was mayor of NYC on 9-11 doesn’t impress me. That McCain was a POW does, but, I am smart enough to know that doesn’t make him infallible. Thompson hasn’t really showed me anything yet, and he suffers in my estimation because of the last actor that was elected (Schwarzenegger)
Yes, I know that all rambles a bit.
