  • I agree; we don't have enough evidence. However, no proof of existence is not proof of non-existence. The covert racism that is not obvious is just as bad, if not worse, than blatant racism. Obama's policies are not perfect and can be criticized on their substance and intelligently debated. Yet, his opponents ignore all of it and linger on his birth, death panels, and other made up stuff. So if you're criticizing everything but policies, we can conclude that racism is a factor.

  • Carter grew up in the racist south. He knows racism when he see's racism. He just brings up what everybody else is afraid to bring up. Just look at the "tea party's" signs: "Go back to Kenya", "Obama nomics: Monkey see monkey spend" "Stand ideal while some Kenyan tries to destroy America" "The zoo has an african and the white house has a lyin' african"...on and on! Are those signs racist? Absolutely!!!!

  • "Democrats have been in Washington DC only bc of the negro vote.You put them first & they put you last. The party you back controls 2/3 of the gov't & they still can't keep their promise to you.Any time you put your weight behind a political party & they control the whole gov’t & they can't keep their promises & you are dumb enough to still identify with that party you are not only a chump but a traitor to your race”Malcom X

    From Obama’s Dreams of My Father:

    I never emulate white men and brown men whose fates didn't speak to my own. It was into my father's image, the black man, son of Africa, that I'd packed all the attributes I sought in myself, the attributes of Martin and Malcolm, Dubois and Mandela.'

    From Obama’s Dreams of My Father: ; 'It remained necessary to prove which side you were on, to show your loyalty to the black masses, to strike out and name names.'

    From Obama’s speech in San Francisco:

    "You go into these small towns in Pennsylvania and, like a lot of small towns in the Midwest, the jobs have been gone now for 25 years and nothing's replaced them," he said.

    "And it's not surprising, then, they get bitter, they cling to guns or religion or antipathy to people who aren't like them or anti-immigrant sentiment or anti-trade sentiment as a way to explain their frustrations,"
