Thank you Dragon

No other subject starts with this we as intelligent Blacks should support stuff, and with all the hell and crap we see in the Black community daily, why must we stand united about someone , who we know will not be president and has not spoken directly to our concerns!
iF SOMEONE IS GETTING CHEDDA FROM HIS CAMPAIN TO LEAD US OFF A CLIFF AT LEAST THEY SHOULD BE HONEST ABOUT IT!
Let's face it where are our lobbyists in Washington to put our agenda on the table. Every other ethnic group understands that in a Capitaliast nation you buy politicians collectively you don't vote for them.
The rigging of the last presidential elections should have givrn us a wake up call!!!!!

Choosing to support Obama should be based on the fact that:

1-he's black.
2-he has qualifications and accomplishments that we value, support, etc...

Whether we think he's got a chance to win has nothing to do with it, because if he IS the man and we, as a collective believe this in him, his chances of winning the whitehouse are far better.

Believe it because he's not going to be out of the public eye for a while now.

Has Obama publicly stated his opinions about the matter himself?

I heard he posted a statement on his site, but cannot find it. If you go to Obama.com you will see a menu titled Issues. Notice that racism and inequality is not on his platform.

Totally sold out.
