doesnt matter what skincolor, ANYONE voting for mccain is an IDIOT

[MawmInc]

How are the Democrats now? Obama offers nothing to the AAs, but he uses his skin color to get their votes.

@billybob101013

Please explain to me, where she is wrong? I can't see a thing she says where anyone could disagree with. You can disagree with per political views but in what she says she is 100% right.

women uncle tom

i could care less what color you are - it def is who represents the people and unfortunately folks are not hearing what Republicans stand for and it isn't for the people and i wonder how this woman feels now? McCain has flip flopped on everything he stood for in 2008 -what part of any Republican agenda helps people of color

[bittyrock]

Im a Moderate Democrat and she is right about staying on Message. When the Republicans had a Debate at Morgan State. McCain, Thompson and Romney All Canceled - Ron Paul and others were there. It is a connection thing. Just like the Rural Community loving Palin and the Urban and Young People loving Obama. Republicans need to stay on message but also engage people of Color. Even the Black Republican Association what do they do they Spew Red Meat and that Turns a lot of people off.

People People , You have to have a Liberal Mind once in a while and study History. All this Bin Laden Talk and Conservatism, and Religion, Please read more than your Bible, have an open mind as to why a Crusade even started,The United States does not live up to what it suppose to stand for, Why the U.S. Constitution is Flawed, how a bill is passed, No normal, Decent human being is one type of person, you have to be an idiot to think that way.

Just like Malcolm X say's a Democrat is nothing but a Dixi-crat, I personally don't care, I have to listen to what you say before I have any critism, Now about this uncle Tom name calling? hey Black people given up their Identity a long time ago, hell being Christian, Catholic, or Mormon is enough. but I'm look as a person with no guidance if I do not support religion at all. Black people Hate themselves more than Whites I think. So cut that who was KKK crap because you already European Centered

Party's aren't static people. I think the republicans have jumped far right since REagan. And democrats seem more centrist.

[kevyster]

like you would know, how many GOP conventions have you attended?. Don't get you info from MSNBC, the network that refused to cover the attack on Ken Gladney and the ACORN sting
