...will everyone that doesn't vote democrat be considered a sexist or a bigot?
It seems like the majority of Obama and Hillary supporters on YA think that way.

Yes, if you don't like Obama you are a racist.
But if you don't like Condi Rice, you are not a racist.

I fear if either of them win the nomination the republicans will once again win. See the PC thing to do is say oh yeah I will vote for Obama, I don't care if he is black, or I will vote for Hillary I don't care that she is a woman. But the truth is, deep down, people are racist and sexist. Yeah you can debate me all you want, but it's true. Who would I vote for between the two, couldn't tell you, I don't know there politics. But you have way to many men who will note vote for a woman, and way to many non blacks who will not vote for a blackman. I think it would be great for either to win, it would be a huge step in the right direction, but I just doubt it will happen. But to answer your question no, not everyone who doesn't vote democrate will be considered a sexist or a bigot.

I disagree with you. Only the ones who are outwardly bigoted by their statments or questions that indicate they are bigots are calld such. While I admire both Senator Clinton and Senator Obama I don't plan to vote for either of them and nothing has to do with race or gender in my decision to not vote for them. I will vote for another Democrat in the primaries and depending on who wins will decide who to vote for in the general election. I could vote for Democrat, Republican or Indepedent. A lot can happen before then so I watch. listen, pay attention and research before I decide. While I am sure there are some who will not vote for either of the two distinguished Senators because of race or gender I am not among them.

No, they will be considered as having a brain.
Running either of those two will make a win for the repubs a cinch.

People are too hung up on electing the first woman or the first semi-black. It is not about "firsts". They will happen when qualified people come along. The test is whether they are best for the job. And, the answer is no.

Yes, when I do NOT vote for either of them, then it will only be because of being black and female (per the dems). It is always someone else's fault....right?
I would probably never vote dem, but definitly not for those two socialists.

I think no one ought to have to explain their reasons for voting.
However, I will say that a large majority of people wouldn't vote for them based on those characteristics, rather than anything substantial. That's how this country is.

BECAUSE IT'S NOT PC NOT TO VOTE FOR A BLACK OR FEMALE DEMOCRAT. I WOULDN'T VOTE FOR EITHER ONE BECAUSE THEY ARE LEFT WING RADICALS. BOTH WILL SELL OUT OUR COUNTRY TO THE MORALLY BANKRUPT UN.
