it kills me how others want to whitewash all of us mountaineers as racists. ask many people in the northeast and out west, and they dont even know west virginia became a state totally separate from virginia over a century ago.so this trash talk doesnt surprise me. im from west virginia, and i guarantee im smarter than half themorons that produced this trash. this video is the equivalent of me doing a documentary with the guys standing around a burning 55 gallon drum in a new york back alley
There are white racists and there are black racists. I was raised to love everyone. Now that I am an adult, I see that racism exists between both. I was harassed terribly by black people in my school as a teen because I am white. Mainly by the girls. As an adult, I still see very well that blacks still do not like whites. I thought we whites were the problem but racism is very strong in the black community. I hope that one day we will see one another as just humans that we are. Bless.
Whether the people of our great nation vote for republican or democrate it doesn't matter becuase we are in for five more years of bull shit and grd lock. I am sure a lot of people are in the same boat as I am In a one year period my wife, both my sons, and my brother all lost their jobs to companies that when under wth only a 2 day to 2 week notice and it took from 7 weeks to 8 months to get a lower paying worse job, I retired early due to poor health, family income is 50% of a decade ago.
Person who is under Tinyoak2. Whoa buddy. You've been to Kosovo? Then you are a terrorist. Type "KLA Kosovo" in google and you will know who you supported. Like in Libya you supported terrorists, criminals and I do mean YOU! Not all American folks who I have stated earlier hard working honest people, YOU! We, the Serbs have people convicted for war crimes, while rarely you will find people convicted for war crimes against Serbs. Shows that we wish justice. God save America, bc it needs saving.
I live in wv and where I'm from there are all kinds of races and religions...I'm glad I've never lived in an area of wv like that one, because that's just ridiculous
If Obama didn't care about this country he wouldn't have run for president in the first place. Its common sense. He's admitted he's a Muslim, he's told us as much truth as Hilary has. I don't like Obama, but I don't approve of people wailing on him because he's from a different heritage. Its ridiculous.
@XbluejuiceXx Well, I would agree except that Obama never stated he was Muslim, he is a Christian. I don't really have a problem either way. I'm Catholic, but lean towards being Agnostic too.
@XbluejuiceXx he never claimed to be muslim. That was the rumor mill from everyone else who couldn't handle the winds of change, so they made that up based on his name and race ( let's be honest). He has claimed christianity.
@XbluejuiceXx im from west virginia and i dont really agree with these people yeah obamas not a very good president but i respect him i dont like when people just wail on somebody
Ok , first of all I live here in West Virginia, and trust me, we our NOT rednecks, The Capitol city of Charleston is a Great Place to be, and WV as a whole is a great place to be. And were certainly not the poorest, wv has a level economy that during recent times of economic hardship have remained stable do to wf's economy. Before you claim us the be the poorest and racial, know what your talking about, I haven't seen one racial act here for as long as I can remember.
This is one reason why I left WV, I love the state, but I can't stand some of the people. I was born there, grew up there, but had to get my kid away from it.
This video just makes me sad.....sad that this is the way many people view the wonderful state of WV. Shame on those in the video and on those who created the video. The world would be better off without both. And to those who live and love WV Cheers, Na zdravi and have a great summer.
throw it mom, because he is black..is that so hard?, don't hide your racism...go for the person, not the color of the skin...at least the old laddy said she is not ready for a black president...that is understandable, because she is part of the 50's- 60's age, let the hypocrisy to the side and be honest with yourself " I AM RACIST "... I DO NOT VOTE FOR A BLACK.is that hard...MOM WE ARE IN THE 2011... ignorance is a thong of the past....
Don't judge West Virginians by this please. I, for example, am Republican, not racist, do not sound like a hick, am educated, and do not go around talking about things that I don't know about. I laugh at the lady in yellow. No clue what she's talking about...
@Zhihveli No, it was not 'better not to vote for him". Not at all. Things would be much, much, much worse right now with Cranky McCain and loony Palin in the White House.
@Zhihveli So you americans had 2 shitty options and you voted the lesser evil? What a funny way of looking at life. Personally I would always look toward something better, but no fairy tales, maybe you guys watch to much msm to know the difference between the real world and fiction.
Obama is just a puppet, same as the other guy would be, so, its all the same to you. down down down you guys r going, and there's no stopping it. NAU is your future.
@Zhihveli Lol! Lectures from a Serb or a Russian? Give me a break. We do just fine here in America, and whether it's a Republican or a Democrat, OUR options will always be better than yours. We have swings in our politics, social and economic, but it's all balanced by our Constitution and separation of powers. There is no fear, from sane people, about any NWO(or NAU), only the tinfoil hatters.
@Zhihveli ok well ur weird man xD this has nothing to do with being bored but just some lame person like u who is saying jerk stuff xD get over it man
@Zhihveli Ok we have a Ballot and on it is two options. So our Options are Vote for A, vote for B or don't vote. Your criticism is voting for the lesser evil is silly cause we shoulda voted for something better.... ? Im not sure how that says anyone doesn't know the difference between the real world and fiction. Im not saying you're right or wrong but your argument seems a little, flawed.
@Zhihveli I do very much wish we had more options though. Ill take a 2 party system over a 5 but I really wish our 2 choices weren't always in the recent years so lackluster.
I live in WV and I vote for Obama. I think the people on this video who said they "didn't agree" or they "don't know what he stands for" are just too chicken shit to say that they are racist FUCKS! I am so ashamed of my state right now. I also think the editing on this video had a lot to do with portraying my home state as "in-bred white trash" I didn't see a single white person saying they would vote for Obama.
3:15 even the old bitch is racists lol not a surprised at all they all made excuses why they wouldn't vote black they would have been better of saying well..........im just racist lol
This fuccccccccccckin dumb bitch, united states run by someone from the united states... History has habit of unturning over every stone, the U.S.A is a an established occupation of foreign land. Stolen from Native Indians!
Awh, great. I'm West Virginian. lol. I am def. not like this, and I know that my generation will not come out as stubborn as our parents. We aren't racist. lol
Not all of West Virginia is racist and inbred as a lot of people show. I lived there for 16 years, and it was a great experience.
This video is biased as are many other people. West Virginia needs to be shown in a better light for what it really is.
It's really sad that the US as a nation would hate on one of its own. These people speak of being united, yet they tear their own country into segregation.
@ZuttoAoi And therin lies the problem. To this day it is all part of propoganda left over from the civil war. The media and especially those who have never even stepped foot south of the Mason Dixon Line will always continue to suggest all southerners are racists and all (so-called) Rednecks are part of the KKK. That isn't true at all, but unfortunately the ignorant will always be Biased.Truthfully,too many southerners remind them of where they came from, so they distance themselves by hate.
My parents are from WV and they acted the same way, "If Obama gets the nomination, I won't vote..." And these were lifelong New Deal, Union Democrats. I live in California now and am so glad to be far-r-r away from this. (Oh, I know we have our share of Orange County Republicans and Desert Trash that feel the same way as these closeted racists in WV, but at least in the more urban areas there is SOME enlightenment). I am all for digging a moat around California and filling it with alligators
racist people tend to be a little on the slow side. Segregating people never did the country much justice and it never will. I dont believe that west virginia is a completely racist state but i do believe that ignorance still holds its bonds with the elderly. Their children show the effects.
I think it's crazy that people watch, and believe what they see. West Virginia is not like this at all. The guy making the video picked out the least intelligent people to put in his video. Stop putting down WV, and giving us all a bad name by making videos like this one.
Actually I can some what agree. I went to WV back in 02 an with a friend to see a girl he was dating at the time. There family an the areas we went to treated me no different. They were a bit curious about this black guy they had never seen in there town before. Those people in the video are ignorant white folks. I bet they feel stupid to know Obama did win.
I live in WV. I voted for Obama. I live in morgantown, and honestly Marko80us, were glad you moved. We don't need close minded idiots like you living in our area and infecting everyone with your shallowness!
It is comical to read these comments. Instead of your brilliant minds attempting to educate these misinformed interviewees, you choose to use your stereotypical prejudice about the State of West Virginia. It must be difficult to live in utopia.
What do you want me to do? I don't have access to these people. The video just makes me sad.
It's hard to educate folks that don't want to be educated. As you watched the interviewer try to tell that woman that Obama was not a Muslim, she just said "Well, I don't believe it". Impossible to educate those who let their biases and prejudices cloud their ability to reason.
Clffjumper12-Your name says it all, you need to go jump off a cliff and take your racist neo nazi inbred family members with you , you and all you MC"CLAN" supporters need to pull your head out of his ass!! Obama is going to change the US for the better, dumbfucks like you are why we are now in a recession,It figures that a dumbass like you would want another 8 years of retarded ass bush tactics!!! Anyways it doesn't matter because " it's "OBAMA" time bitch!!!!
Im sry but that shit is funny. The woman on the swing is twaked out im suprised she even knew who the candidates were. Look at her nose twitchin. Go Hit the pipe again. Vote for Obama !!!!
Martinsburg WV is a distant suburb of Washington DC. People moved there from the DC area for the low cost of living compared to the surrounding MD, VA and DC area and have long commutes to work in the DC area. If I had the means to go to each state I would find few ignorant people to film who have ideas I would be trying prove as well. WV is not perfect but it is far from being completely backward. When it all hits the fan we will survive a lot longer than the suits computer nerds and deskjocks.
Update: 10-5-2008: Let me just say that I don't like the comments lumping all West Virginians into the same category. It isn't fair. Outrage is valid, but..
I know a lot of people in West Virginia and when I was campaigning there for Senator Obama I met a LOT of good people. People that took me in their homes, fed me lunch and dinner and only want what most Americans want. A chance to make a decent living, support their families and to give their children a chance to do the same.
Fuck you bitch. Is not that you don't agree, is that he is black, and you are a racist bitch. At least be honest like the old people in the clip and don't try bullshit the reporter.
This is a very Sad Shit, I'm from Puerto Rico and I served in the US Army, and in the Army at least in my case, I had buddies who were Black, White Southerners, Pennsylvania White dudes etc. and we were BROTHERS, AND SEEING THIS SHIT, makes me sick. So we were fighting for this flicking people? Fuck this people.
this video points out what is wrong with America - ignorance. Sheltered from the outside world of their small town with no clue what an educated mind truly means and the opportunity it creates. Why do Republicans want to destroy the public education system? Because they know a dumb American is a fearful one trapped in the darkness of their limited experience.
yea this is a state that reelected bush,idiots not raedy for a black man but ready for a women this is why wv gets a bad rep all the time toothless idiots
that fat bitch tracy is too racist. stupid cow so dumb she even cant speak english to tell why she dont want obama. spasticated fat ho. i hope some niggaz run up in her crib and blast her silly. stupid cow
The woman in this video is stupid. If you don't "know" a candidate it's because you are unwilling to take the time to research them. This is just a hunch and I could be wrong, but I have a strong feeling that the only reason she backs Clinton is because she is a woman.
I was born and raised in West Virginia and still live there today. There are uneducated and ignorant people all over this country. Why point out West Virginia? Racism and ignorance is proven here in people over 40. Look at the younger, the new generation of people in West Virginia and you will find good, respectable people here. Do a video about us!
Sorry Dave. Most know that everyone in West Virginia are not like all of these people. But this is a video that shows how some of the people in WV, in the Appalachia region, are pretty ignorant.
And I don't use the word racist, because I think most of the people that are like the people in the video are more ignorant than racist.
If we do a video in WV that shows how good the people are, people like you, I will surely post it.
I realize that racism goes both ways, believe me, I KNOW, lol, but because the KKK is growing down there it worries me that they are going to try to stop blacks from voting. I don't really know the extent of the racism down south personally because I don't think I've ever been there, maybe on vacation when i was little but that'd be it. Not to scare anyone by any means, just that a lot of these videos on youtube have me worried.
Hahaha!!! That lady apparently has never taken a 6th grade civics class and learned that it's a prerequisite for office to be born in this country to run. "But he's muslim." I don't know whether to laugh or to cry.
I live in WV and sad to say this the way most of the people from age 40 up think.The younger people are not like them. You can not have a conversation without Christianity coming up and usually some racial slur as well.
"Hillary knows what the pledge of allegiance is, Hillary could probably sing the Star Spangled Banner better than anybody... so can John McCain. Atleast I know that they believe in this country..."
The fuck? Glad to know people are voting for the right reasons...
Do not judge whole states based of a hand-full of people the SLANTED NEW MEDIA has intervied and play over and over. Also dont ever beleive their FLAWED EXIT POLLS to come up with their results. Research "EXIT POLL " before you beleive this propaganda they smear on television. The exit polls these idiots use to judge america by only sample a very small fraction of voters. WAKE UP AMERICAN PEOPLE who beleive everything your SLANTED NEWS MEDIA feeds you !
Unfortunately, rodana12, there is no spin here. WV is a state full of backward, straw hat hillbillies. There are some exeptions, even withing those who oppose Obama. However, the rule stands.
My vote is for OBAMA!! Obama just won the endorsement of Sen. Robert Byrd of West Virginia, the longest-serving senator in history and a former member of the white supremacist Ku Klux Klan and one-time opponent of civil rights legislation. Let's unite!!!
I love these people who say they don't know so they're afraid...it's not like there isn't information out there everywhere...these people are just racists!
Well, I guess it's a case of who gave the worser answers and it seems to me the rednecks won.
The Black people I would say have given a generic answer as to why they are voting for Obama. And the Whites here are saying they're not ready for a black president but has weird reasons eg. Obama seem unAmerican and unable to sing the Star Spangled Banner, etc.
well they do say the uneducated in America are Hillary's base. Thank God... I'm a recent college graduate, and we seem to key in on issues more than those who support Hillary. So we know more about the policy and issues. Hillary supporters do not. So they use him being a muslim (even in the wake of Rev. Wright controversy). and him being a so-called racist (even when his mother is white). Wake up stupids, we know you're racist and stupid. So stop hiding behind the pledge of allegiance.
Sorry, but you don't know anything about Obama. He is a Christian;-) And his plans are much better for the American people than the plans Mc Cain is offering.
I guess you are just a Racist, so I repeat myself: Poor guy!
Great video.. Obama and Clinton basically share the same policy agenda for the oval office. However, "white working class democrats" who refuse to vote for Obama tend to have a tough time explaining why they wouldn't. Basiclly suggesting, "I'm a racist but I dont know why." lol.(pretty pathetic) The country has come very far but this is evidence that it will have to come much further in order for blacks to be seen as equals in the minds of many white americans.
Some Americans still believe that Obama is a muslim???? At the risk of offending some Americans: Are some Americans really that stupid??? Racism and low education are often connected to each other. I really hope that the American education system will be improved very soon!!

It's really sad that the US as a nation would hate on one of its own. These people speak of being united, yet they tear their own country into segregation.

You are absolutely right, and this video does show only a section of West Virginia, and not the good side.
I do know there is a good side and have been to WV many times. But I also know the bad side. Which is sad.
It's hard to talk to people who have the kind of hate and racism bred into them from many generations of the same kinds of thinking.
But I know change is possible and many will break away from that type of thinking. I've seen it. I've experienced it.

@ZuttoAoi And therin lies the problem. To this day it is all part of propoganda left over from the civil war. The media and especially those who have never even stepped foot south of the Mason Dixon Line will always continue to suggest all southerners are racists and all (so-called) Rednecks are part of the KKK. That isn't true at all, but unfortunately the ignorant will always be Biased.Truthfully,too many southerners remind them of where they came from, so they distance themselves by hate.

My parents are from WV and they acted the same way, "If Obama gets the nomination, I won't vote..." And these were lifelong New Deal, Union Democrats. I live in California now and am so glad to be far-r-r away from this. (Oh, I know we have our share of Orange County Republicans and Desert Trash that feel the same way as these closeted racists in WV, but at least in the more urban areas there is SOME enlightenment). I am all for digging a moat around California and filling it with alligators

racist people tend to be a little on the slow side. Segregating people never did the country much justice and it never will. I dont believe that west virginia is a completely racist state but i do believe that ignorance still holds its bonds with the elderly. Their children show the effects.

Actually I can some what agree. I went to WV back in 02 an with a friend to see a girl he was dating at the time. There family an the areas we went to treated me no different. They were a bit curious about this black guy they had never seen in there town before. Those people in the video are ignorant white folks. I bet they feel stupid to know Obama did win.

I used to be a racist too. I was brought up that way. Then I started working with people of all different backgrounds and began to change.
I'm not saying if you don't vote for Obama you're a racist, but let's have rational reasons. :-)
I voted Dem for the first time in my like in 2000, and worked for Obama's campaign throughout the last election.
I'm praying it was worth it and my efforts are rewarded.

It is comical to read these comments. Instead of your brilliant minds attempting to educate these misinformed interviewees, you choose to use your stereotypical prejudice about the State of West Virginia. It must be difficult to live in utopia.

What do you want me to do? I don't have access to these people. The video just makes me sad.
It's hard to educate folks that don't want to be educated. As you watched the interviewer try to tell that woman that Obama was not a Muslim, she just said "Well, I don't believe it". Impossible to educate those who let their biases and prejudices cloud their ability to reason.

Martinsburg WV is a distant suburb of Washington DC. People moved there from the DC area for the low cost of living compared to the surrounding MD, VA and DC area and have long commutes to work in the DC area. If I had the means to go to each state I would find few ignorant people to film who have ideas I would be trying prove as well. WV is not perfect but it is far from being completely backward. When it all hits the fan we will survive a lot longer than the suits computer nerds and deskjocks.

Update: 10-5-2008: Let me just say that I don't like the comments lumping all West Virginians into the same category. It isn't fair. Outrage is valid, but..
I know a lot of people in West Virginia and when I was campaigning there for Senator Obama I met a LOT of good people. People that took me in their homes, fed me lunch and dinner and only want what most Americans want. A chance to make a decent living, support their families and to give their children a chance to do the same.

Sorry Dave. Most know that everyone in West Virginia are not like all of these people. But this is a video that shows how some of the people in WV, in the Appalachia region, are pretty ignorant.
And I don't use the word racist, because I think most of the people that are like the people in the video are more ignorant than racist.
If we do a video in WV that shows how good the people are, people like you, I will surely post it.
No offense, and take care.

Wright controversy). and him being a so-called racist (even when his mother is white). Wake up stupids, we know you're racist and stupid. So stop hiding behind the pledge of allegiance.

Great video.. Obama and Clinton basically share the same policy agenda for the oval office. However, "white working class democrats" who refuse to vote for Obama tend to have a tough time explaining why they wouldn't. Basiclly suggesting, "I'm a racist but I dont know why." lol.(pretty pathetic) The country has come very far but this is evidence that it will have to come much further in order for blacks to be seen as equals in the minds of many white americans.
