Obama says Republicans will use race to stoke fear

JACKSONVILLE, Florida (Reuters) - Democratic presidential contender Barack Obama said on Friday he expects Republicans to highlight the fact that he is black as part of an effort to make voters afraid of him.

"It is going to be very difficult for Republicans to run on their stewardship of the economy or their outstanding foreign policy," Obama told a fundraiser in Jacksonville, Florida. "We know what kind of campaign they're going to run. They're going to try to make you afraid.

"They're going to try to make you afraid of me. He's young and inexperienced and he's got a funny name. And did I mention he's black?"

Why does this surprise you. That's the kind of campaign republicans run, you do realize what happened to McCain in 2000 or do you recall 2004 with all the attacks and color code changes. By the way what did you ever do with the plastic and masking tape.

The race issue is coming from Obama, not RepubliCANS. Obama is a liberal moonbat with some of the worst associations I've ever seen and you think we're worried because he's half black? A bad joke disqualifies a Republican like George Allen, from office yet Obama spends 20 years in "black values" church that preaches hate towards white people and we're the racists?

There is a Seinfeld episode in which they play on the idea that if one is of a certain race, religion, or what have you, it is then Ok for you to make fun or criticize that particular thing because obviously you stand in those shoes. Obama is considered black not half white, that by itself reveals a lot about how we think of race and while many pretend racism is a thing of the past that is hokum. So yes, Obama needs to hit back on the issue every time it is brought up.

If someone says you'll run a racist campaign against them, that's basically the same as calling you a racist, is the way I see it.

So Obama and his supporters are calling anyone who calls him on his liberalism, his racist friends, his terrorist friends, a racist

Will Smith On Obama: 'First Time' in Years it’s Good to Be an American
By Geoffrey Dickens | June 23, 2008 - 13:32 ET

On to promote his new movie "Hancock," Will Smith was pushed by "Today" co-host Matt Lauer to express his support for Barack Obama and the actor/rapper, channeled his inner Michelle Obama, as he declared it's the "first time" in five to 10 years it's been good to be an American overseas:

WILL SMITH: You know I just, I just came back from Moscow, Berlin, London and Paris and it's the first, I've been there quite a few times in the past five to 10 years. And it just hasn't been a good thing to be American. And this is the first time, since Barack has gotten the nomination, that it, it was a good thing.

Mississippi is 40% African American, but it votes 25% African American. If we just got the African Americans in Mississippi to vote their percentage, Mississippi is suddenly a Democratic state. And Georgia may be a Democratic state. Even South Carolina starts being in play. And I guarantee you African-American turnout, if I'm the nominee, goes up 30% around the country, minimum."

why is it ok for obama to mention his race "first" but yet you support his claim that the republicans of course will use race to scare people? they have not done this with him and the entire republican party is not responsible for what happen to mccain, ever stop and think that mccain is the one running, not bush...obama is the one talking about his race, he is such an idiot

Obama is black.

Obama attended a racist church for 20 years and calls the controversial racist, American hating pastor an "uncle". This is disturbing to people who don't want to vote for a racist sympathizer.

Colin Powell, Condolezza Rice, Allan Keyes are all blacks that I would vote for. Notice, they don't have the baggage Obama has.

It isn't about Obama's color, its about his character.

Obama plays the race card way too much, and will continue to divide Americans by using it to blur the truth during this election... And, Americans don't want 4 years of the same kind of misleading racial manipulation. It won't unite us, it will divide us.

Obama is the wrong black man.

no one ever suggested that the entire republican party was racist. I merely suggest that many racists are republican and will vote against Obama because of his skin color and how much they HATE niggers. Black voters will vote for Obama because most blacks vote for democrats anyway, and this year they will have the added incentive of being able to vote for an african american for president for the first time. There is something fundamentally different about white folks voting against Obama because they hate niggers, and black folks voting for Obama because of a combination of shared political philosophy and ethnic pride. The former seems more sinister to me. But apparently, you disagree.

Lets take a closer look at how Dems view blacks - black conservatives that is


"Simple Sambo" and "Ignorant Mammy"": That's how Democrats view Blacks
By Frances Rice

Democrats, who claim that they care about diversity, use despicable racial stereotypes, just as Democrats did during the days of slavery and Jim Crow, to slur black professionals, such as Dr. Condoleezza Rice and Maryland Lt. Governor Michael Steele.

Oreo cookies were thrown by Democrats at Mr. Steele, and two members of the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee, Katie Barge and Lauren Weiner, committed identity theft, illegally obtaining Mr. Steele's Social Security number and credit report.
Brazenly, on the left-wing Internet website called "The News Blog," Democrats posted a doctored photograph of Mr. Steele, depicting him as a "Simple Sambo." This contemptible racist stereotype is the same one that Democrats used to demean blacks during the era of slavery and segregation.

In addition to other outrageous racist images produced by several Democrats, cartoonist Jeff Danziger depicted Dr. Rice as an ignorant, barefoot "mammy," reminiscent of the stereotyped black woman in the movie Gone with the Wind who remarked: "I don't know nothin' 'bout birthin' no babies."

Democrats feel free to display such blatant racism because they know that they can take the black vote for granted. Black Americans need to wake up, think for themselves and get off of the Democratic Party's plantation. The National Black Republican Association is dedicated to exposing the failed socialist policies and racist past of the Democratic Party that has hijacked the civil rights record of the Republican Party.

I have NEVER suggested that anyone vote based solely on skin color.

I said:

Black voters will vote for Obama because most blacks vote for democrats anyway, and this year they will have the added incentive of being able to vote for an african american for president for the first time. There is something fundamentally different about white folks voting against Obama because they hate niggers, and black folks voting for Obama because of a combination of shared political philosophy and ethnic pride.

your cowardly dishonesty is truly pathetic.

I bet you have never spoken to him on the phone.

He is a very tolerant person, who doesnt pressure me or scold me for disagreeing and he has a great sense of humor.

I chose to try and make a point clear, i felt he crossed a line there, and i understand why you would be upset, i re-read what he said, and felt a stronger opinion on the matter was warranted.

However, I dont feel calling him a douche bag, accomplishes anything.

I respect him, and thats not gonna change, whether you like it or not. Do i really need to yell at him or name call to get that same point accross or dont you think my way, being polite is more effective?

how intellectually dishonest of you.

I have NEVER suggested that anyone vote based solely on skin color.

I said:

Black voters will vote for Obama because most blacks vote for democrats anyway, and this year they will have the added incentive of being able to vote for an african american for president for the first time. There is something fundamentally different about white folks voting against Obama because they hate niggers, and black folks voting for Obama because of a combination of shared political philosophy and ethnic pride.

your cowardly dishonesty is truly pathetic.

I know a few blacks that might be able to spell philosophy, most don't have a clue what it means. The only reason they will vote for Obammy is the same reason they wanted O.J. found not guilty, all they see is color and Obammy kind of looks like them...... they don't have a clue what that empty suit stands for because he doesn't even know until his white masters tell him. Obammy is a slave to George Soros and numerous other asswipes, if he doesn't do exactly what they say they will whip his semi black ass and pull the plug that has allowed him to be where he is. A vote for Obammy is a vote for slavery 2008.

By the way, Obammy isn't a nigger, he is a mulatto or a half breed..... ask Sharpton.

What's funny is that I work with real Africans that have become citizens of The United States and they refuse to be called anything but Americans. They also detest American blacks because they feel that they are lazy, childish, criminal and ignorant in general.

If Ernie Els or Gary Player would become American citizens, they would technically be African American even though both are whiter than I am, that's just how silly the label is for American blacks. The other thing that I find really hilarious is the false sense of pride blacks have for Africa even though most can't find it on a world map and certainly don't know that much about it.:laugh2::laugh2::laugh2:

OH, FIRST OFF, GOTTA JUST LOVE THIS JOHN EDWARDS STUFF, AND HE WANTED TO BE PRESIDENT??? HAHAHAHAHA

Sorry, flat out delusional. It wasnt always that way. Liberalism used to be based in reality, but not anymore. Fact is they use fear mongering and lies to lure votes. They can only appeal to a collection of many different special interest groups, and even those dont realize they are being deceived.

XLINT example. Blacks vote Democrat based on past experiences and a distorted public image of the Republicans. Yet the Democrats will dump the black voters best interests if it conflicts with the interests of one of their other special interest groups.
Teachers unions wants to continue their monopoly on education opportunities, that way they can continue to collect money and graduate students (Los Angeles has an over 50% rate of graduates who cant read and/or write proper English), so the Dems oppose school choice even though an overwhelming majority of inner city black parents want it.
Dems pretend they are for family values, yet support feminist posistions which help weaken the family structure as well as same gender marriage even though a vast majority of Americans oppose it.
Delusional in concluding their is nothing abnormal about homosexuality, which is obvious on its face value.
Delusional and liars when one of the leading Dems claims republicans, like me, want to revert to the days of slavery, no child labor laws, complete oppression and lack of rights for women (different than modern feminism). Yet I have 5 daughters and a wife and in no way support anything remotely close to what the liberals accuse me and millions of other every day ordinary conservative Americans, including women, of.
Delusional that they think you can negotiate with Islamic radicals.
Delusional that they think humans are basically good, and big business and corporations are the big bad evil entities, yet they are run by,,,,,guess what?? PEOPLE !!!!
Delusional that they blame President Bush for high gas prices and everything else.
Delusional that they cling to the claim that an unborn child shouldnt have all the rights afforded every other living individual human beings.
Delusional that the death penalty doesnt help reduce crime, or that more gun ownership leads to more crime and murders (truth is quite the opposite)
Delusional that Republicans want to destroy the enviorment
Delusional about their claims of global warming is already an established fact
Delusional and/or liars about things like the Kyoto treaty which in fact would be unfair and disasterous to us if we signed on.
Delusional that women and men dont have basic intrinsic differences.
Delusional that kids dont need a man to help raise them
Delusional that animals are equivelent to humans.
Delusional that raising minimum wage is helpful to the poor
Delusional in their interpetation and rewriting via judicial activism, of the Constitution.
Delusional that the civil war wasnt over slavery.
Delusional that America is an Imperialistic country
Delusional that govt can solve all our problems, when in fact today it creates most of them for the average American.
The list goes on and on.

Go on with your rationaLIES ation of why your thinking on these points isnt delusional, but they are.

SUpporting the ACLU that supports the rights of pedophiles, as though the right to free speech is un restricted. (fact is the founding fathers only wanted free speech to apply to political speech)

Erasing The Race Factor
Obama's Best Hope Is To Face the Issue Directly

By Peter Beinart
Wednesday, August 13, 2008; Page A15

Barack Obama has a problem. He really, really doesn't want this campaign to be about race. He wants it to be about change, President Bush, the economy, gas prices, Iraq, Afghanistan -- almost anything else. But it is going to be about race, at least in part. That's the lesson of recent weeks, when the McCain campaign brought up race (on the pretext that Obama had brought it up first). The Obama campaign tried desperately to change the subject but couldn't. Once the chum was in the water, the media sharks went wild.

Obama should take that as a warning. Race will be central to this campaign because McCain needs it to be. He simply doesn't have many other cards to play. And it will be central because every time Republicans light the match, the press will create a forest fire. Race is just too titillating to ignore. The history of post-Vietnam presidential elections is littered with Democratic nominees who thought they could run on policy and ignore symbolism. This year, the symbolism will be largely racial. Obama can't avoid that. He needs to control the race debate instead.
