I agree that people need to base their vote on who they think has the best qualifications & plans to run the country & not because they simply want to see an African American or woman as president. But learning about what the candidate believe, keeping up with the political process, plus national & world events is boring & too much work to so many people, so they do end up basing their vote, if they vote at all, on superficial things.
otherwise, hope you liked your trip to the south, though you almost got here at the worst time of year, though charleston shouldn't be too bad, at least not like here and savannah in august. oh, and Frederick Douglas was the first black to run on a presidential ticket, though he was on the VP ticket, with victoria woodhull as the prez candidate, who turned out to be ineligible, not for being female, but because she wouldn't have been 35 by inauguration day.
Yah, I was in to Charleston and Savannah like a year ago. Both then and now we have had perfect weather. We'll have a few hours tomorrow to sightsee a bit before our flight.
point being they don't know how to run businesses, don't know how the tax system works, don't know how to read, but do know how to vote for people with the same skin color as them. luckily, C Jack Ellis can't be re-elected, unfortunately his right hand man just won the democratic primaries.
Why? cuz he's black.seems everyone that owns the businesses, and their own houses, live, for the most part, in the county, and can't vote for the mayor (and yes i mean "minority" business owners, not just white, we actually have a huge asian property owner population down here), and everyone in the voting jurisdiction were mostly those with low literacy rates, low levels of education, and high welfare draw, and (coincidentally) black.
"a few years ago we had our first black mayor here, i was proud, the city finally getting past seeing people in terms of race."
Well if this is NOT the pot calling the kettle BLACK! Congratulations "wytkrackr" you have provided us all with proof of what happens when Blacks are elected. Black people get stupid and go on welfare, Africa's tourism goes up and local industry closes up shop and moves to the county. Oh and the tax structure is mutilated.
Please point out where i stated that all blacks are high school drop outs, or illiterate. If I had been "Afroflash2000" you wouldn't have given my comments a second thought, but no, you saw "wytkracka" and immediately jumped to the "you're a racist" banter. What, the fact that i'm white means i'm not allowed to talk about anyone but white people? If anything, that's racist. As we seem to have no shortage of other races talking about whites.
For that matter, please point out where I stated that was what happened "when blacks are elected". If you'd read again without your PC glasses on you'd see that I was stating that's what can happen if you elect people based on sex/race (even if they're white) while ignoring the issues. The dumbass was a car salesman for christ's sake, and not even a very good one, and he got elected solely due to the color of his skin.
Thanks for completely missing the point, demographically the lower educated and less literate whites here live in the county and rural areas, while lower educated and less literate blacks live in the city, i didn't say that blacks were illiterate high school drop outs, just that the ones that were all live within the city limits and only vote in terms of race.
please note i did make an effort to point out that the better educated business and property owning minorities (this term is usually meant to include blacks, hispanic, asian, and women, etc), live outside the city limits, even if the businesses they own are inside the city limits. Almost as if I knew some tool would say "hey look, he's white, he's commenting on black high school drop outs, so he must be racist".
I get it-if you elect someone solely on the issues, you get Hmm.. to overthrow the elected government of Haiti, set up and run concentration camps, wage war against a defenseless opponent and lie about it. Ignore treason against our country, harbor terrorist within our shores, attempt to overthrow the gov't of Venezuela, and just create havoc world-wide. To think, the dumbass was a Major league baseball owner, and not even a very good one. He got elected solely due to ..what????
nice listing of baseless accusations. "vidmakr likes little boys", there, that's as much proof as chavez and aristide ever gave us on their claims. He made more with that baseball team than you ever will, and he got elected due to a clear and coherent economic plan that has worked remarkably well.
Well now we get to the real root of the issue here. Ok, is this where I am supposed to say "yeah, and you're a stupid beer drinking, pot belly, molesting yahoo?" I thought so... that's okay. That you find my statement baseless is proof of your own lack of knowledge. I'll just back out, it's clear you aren't as learned as you pretend. Yes, I do like little boys, my own..I actually love them thank you very much. Peace
no, it was a simple illustration of how flimsy those arguments are, I have no proof you like little boys, chavez has no proof the US government tried to oust him. simple correlation. I, myself, don't drink stupid beer, i am about 8 pounds overweight, and the last thing I molested had 4 wheels and a v8. there are no concentration camps, the war you're referring to is called "treaty enforcement", you don't want a treaty enforced, don't break it
, besides, attempted assassination of a US president is more than enough reason. Yes, there are alot of congressman committing treason everyday, like Dick Turban, and Murtha, and yes, the border should be closed to keep terrorist out, that better? I agreed with you some.
charging trips to africa over and over to the city budget to "learn how to help industrialize the city" (cuz you know africa's such an industrial powerhouse), running up thousands of dollars in debt just in dinners around town, and hanging out with Mr. Molester, Malachi York (look him up with the Nuwaubians). Then the bastard gets re-elected.
Did you know you could probably get a job with FOX News or better yet "law enforcement?" They are always looking for "highly" educated "closet" racists whites like yourself. You'd be perfect. This way you can make sure the "BASTARDS don't get elected/re-elected. You'd "SAVE THE CONFEDERACY"
So let's see what we learn from your comment, whites are highly educated closet racists, white cops are worse, and white cops from the south are worst. Yeah, I'm the bigot here. Again, for the peanut gallery, the point wasn't "that's what happens when blacks get elected", but "that's what happens when you ignore policy and vote for race or sex". For further clarification, that's whether you vote for or against someone.
only to find out the ONLY reason he got elected was that he was black, all our industrial parks are emptying out, downtown was dead, the city stayed in debt, he was paying friends to come down and give speeches at a conference center, while signing orders to waive any fees charged to use the center,
that's ridiculous and illustrates perfectly one of my biggest fears in this election, people voting for the magic negro or hill simply because they are black or a woman,absolutely no regard for their actual policies. a few years ago we had our first black mayor here, i was proud, the city finally getting past seeing people in terms of race.
