    The thing is - I'm not sure she realized it was wrong until someone told her. Obama's was a mishap. He knows there's only 55 states.

          Anyone worry that this country is going to become separated? I don't think I've ever seen so many people so passionate about an election before.

            In what way? Racially? Religiously? President being shot?

            I think it's going to open up the minds of our Southern baptist folk, some will succomb to the idea of a African-American president, others will be scheming with the KKK.

              That's what I mean. I think things would get "stirred up" so to speak. I mean, obama has to know he's at high risk of assasination. I really hope America is better than that though.

                And that's what makes this election like no other in the history of the country. For the first time, whether people will admit it out right or hold their tongue, there is a percentage of the people voting that could end up hating their president simply because of the color of his skin! That seems amazing that someone would not be judged by the merits of their policies and the service they have done, but instead judged by a physical feature that has nothing to do with the job that they will ultimately do.

                What exactly does that say about America? The reality, it seems, is that the hatreds of the past have simply gone under ground, but the vote will bring that to the surface again, albeit in an unaccountable way on a person to person level, but nationally the trend can be seen again.

                  Dude, there's nothing on TV. Myspace has petered out, Brittany's sober again, and American Idol isn't on until the spring.

                  I really wish I was being sarcastic.

                      So whats worse?

                      Blacks voting for Obama simply because he is black?

                      OR

                      Whites voting AGAINST Obama because he is black/muslim/terrorist/communist?

                        He's not black, he's not a muslim, he's not a terrorist and he's not a communist.

                        He's a half black democrat and there's nothing WORSE then considering a democrat's color when voting AGAINST them. There are simply too many other reasons to vote AGAINST them...

                          Apparently the majority of the country doesn't agree with you at this point.

                          Why did you feel the need to put all of the negative words in all caps?

                              I'm only voting against Obama's white half. I'm still down with the brown.
