because I disagree with their politics, how quickly do you think I would be labeled a "Sexist" and a "Racist"?

It would come quicker than you'd realize. I am a Republican and therefore didn't vote for Harold Ford Jr. here in the TN Senate race and was labeled a racist for it. Its pathetic and pitiful when some people try to demonize you when you simply don't agree with that particular person's politics. What was worse is that the media was portraying the race as saying "South still can't stomach black Senator" which I thought was insane, considering it was a Dem v. Rep race, not a white v. black race (and TN is known for being a Red state, so why would they expect Ford to win, anyway?). Even Ford Jr. himself began playing the race card. Overall, don't worry if they play the race card. I've been called a racist because I oppose Affirmative Action and because I support a border wall. The left tends to try and use scare tactics to get others to conform to their beliefs. Hence you see words like "fascist, Hitler, racist" and the like thrown around to garner support for their own flawed ideology.

More than likely but you really can't let that bother you, sick by what you belive is right.
Although they are for childerns education they are still morely corrupt.
Although they say they are for the hick we still get a kick in the *** They spend money on special programs for the manority when all the manority has to do is get off their lazy *** and go find a job so what if they have to work at Target, Winn Dixie, Mc Donnals
You have to start some were we all cant work at Mirco Soft I certainly don't so why should they have specail program just because they are poor they are poor because they know the Government will give them a hand out.
So with they all said stick to what you believe regardless if people will refure to you as a white bread rasist ***** it really does not matter what they think.

Hello again. I've read your questions before.
I'm a Democrat and I would never label you a "sexist" or "racist" for disliking HIllary Clinton or Barack Obama.
I don't like Hillary Clinton because she tries to be all things to all people, and I don't think Barack Obama has enough experience to be president.

You probably would be right away because we live in a society of label. I do not like either of them, they are way to left for me. I may labeled as a racist and sexist because of this, but you know what, I know who I am. I do not care about sex, race, creed, or anything else when it comes to anybody. I just want the right person for the job.

Immedeiatly, when logic runs out, as has happened in America, labeling begins. Take the way this administration has behaved over the past 4 years ans you'll understand. Disegree and your not patriotic, stand up against them your a terrorist, come up with a better plan and your insane.I don't like Hillary but I'll give credit where credit due, she voted for the war, but like most Americans she had no idea this administration would get their ego trip off it. To be fashionable and "political" correct, when someone disegrees with you it's your duty as an American not to logicly debate you label them and move on. Damn right Alex, Im writeing your name in for president.

You would be both a sexist and a racist. It would have nothing to do with the fact that Hillary is vile and Obama (who I find too far left anyway) has yet to 'prove' himself as a strong leader to his supporters on the left. AFFIRMATIVE ACTION BABE! she is a woman and he is black--THAT should be all that matters to vote for them.
Your fellow sexist/racist,

Not quickly at all. Voting isn't based on personal like- at least it shouldn't be. It should based on if you feel the candidate best represents your beliefs and concerns. If Clinton or Obama don't do that for you- then vote for a different candidate. I wouldn't consider you sexist or racist.

You have the right to your opinion and I agree with you, I don't like their politics either. Unfortunately we'd both be labeled as sexist racists for it, sucks doesn't it?!

The personal decision to not like them, is of your personal preference. There is nothing that calls you "sexist" or "racist", one cannot be identified, named, or labeled, with evidents that stems from default. The only way that you could be labeled as such is for you to look into the reasons for your preference. If it comes down to the fact that you have your preferences based on such premises, then you have identified your-self as being such. In this case, you are such, by your own admission.
If one mislabels you, shame on him. At the same time welcome to the insights of imperfect people. this is life...
If you are more than just labeled as such, shame on you.

I wouldn't assume you were a sexist or racist unless you said why you didn't like them and it included sexist or racist jargon. Simple enough.
