Does Obama have a chance at the presidency running against all of those "racist" Rebublicans?

Question

Boy oh Boy. Folks really get in a "tizzie" about politics!!! Why, Why, Why. Look where they have taken the WORLD... Oh and a misspelled REBULICANS... OOOPS ... I guess that's a No, No on Yahoo Answers. A lot of you are waaaay 2 critical. Politic...Smolitics....We're such a self-destructive society!!! Everyone wants 2 B sooooo Right!!!

Answer 1

Yes, I think he will actually swing some Republican votes along with a great deal of Independents. He isn't as unpopular as Hillary is with the Repubs. In my opinion out of the Dems running he has the best chance at winning the White House.

Answer 2

The word "racist" has no meaning today, other than it is abused and used when someone of a different race, especially white, disagrees with someone claiming to be Black or other preferential treatment class. Oprah Winfrey, Jesse Jackson, Al Sharpton, and Baracka Hussein Obama, Jr. are racists, meaning they are for their own kind. Branding all Republicans, or any specific class as "racist" confirms your own bias, prejudice, and racism. Regarding Baracka Hussein Obama Jr.'s chance at the presidency, he is unfit, specifically because he has dishonored the American flag in public, during the playing of the national anthen, by refusing to place his hand over his heart, however Hillary Rodham Clinton and others on the same stage placed their hands over their heart paying due respect as any honest presidential candidate should. Source: AP. Baracka Hussein Obama is a fraud, a polly parrot, copying the ideas and brainwork of other candidates such as Hillary, Edwards, and Richardson, then claiming same to be his own.Hussein has little or no experience qualifying him to be president. The White House is not the place for on-job-training or Affirmative Action placement.

Answer 3

Rebublicans? Or were you trying to say Republicans are the racist party. The racists party has always been the Democrats. Read a little history, you know Abraham Lincoln, the Republican, Civil War....In the sixties, it was the Republicans who voted for civil rights; it was the Democrats you fought and voted against it. Be very careful who you call a racist; maybe you should look at yourself in the mirror when you use hate speech and inflammatory words.

Answer 4

It is unfair of you to proclaim republicans "racist". By doing so, you are only perpetuating the idea that Democrats have to resort to name calling and cheap politics to win.
However, there is some glimmer of wisdom in your words. I think America has come a long way in Civil Rights, but is America, as a whole, really ready for a black president?? I am and I fully support Barack Obama, but I am not so sure about the rest of the population.
In the end though, if Barack Obama loses it won't be because of his race, but rather because of his name, perceived inexperience, and because of Hilary.
Obama definitely stands a chance; the time is ripe for the downfall of the republican regime. I think people's disdain for the Bush era and all the republicans who supported Bush might just be bigger than any prejudices against blacks.

Answer 5

Name one Democrat President that gave a Black person one of the highest positions such as Condi Rice has ?
Colin Powell had it too.
Wasn`t it the democrats dogging Alberto Gonzales. Racist Republicans ??????????

Answer 6

Absolutely! The majority of voters in the nation will vote for Obama for fear of being called racist, besides it would be politically correct

Answer 7

Anyone who sticks to an issue would have a running chance. Obama is not that great. It isn't racist to not like a candidate. I can't stand Guiliani either; or Hillary. I am crossing party lines for the best candidate...Obama isn't it for me.

Answer 8

he should immediately jump into 3rd party, maybe then it can be a viable chance to save our once great nation. Both parties are tugging each other under the table, it makes me sick...Please everyone, for the sake of our country, vote 3rd party no matter who or what happens, we all know they won't win anyways....but to make a 3rd party viable, will make a huge difference, in the attitudes of Dems and Reps. (as is harder and harder to distinguish between the two, once in office). No matter which of the 2 parties win, they will at least know that a large enough percentage want control brought back to the people. They both have gotten too good at, sneaking in pork belly, corrupt, favoritism pandering. Putting both on notice or "watch" will give the(shrinking into poverty) middle class an honest chance at a life. The whole conservative vs liberal ideology is just so much baloney when you think about it. Isn’t it like saying "change" vs "do not change?"... and how can either say they are not adding more laws, just to sneak in their pet payoffs. Its is almost impossible to get a business going, "completely by the book", (with the Federal and State requirements) unless you have some kind of "in" "special deal".... which is why there are so many "under the table" workers. Both parties have "cut their noses off to spite their face". They think they are creating tax revenue, but by making it too hard to compete with those pandered companies, they end up with "rogue" "zero ethics" flippant businesses, with so many people "temped", they not only deepened the health care problem but have dissolved the tax revenue they could have had if there were proper "check and balances" in place. Remember how Bill Clinton disallowed homeowners to claim home repairs as a tax writeoff? Did that bring tax revenue...no the contractors just didn't file on most of the jobs they did, because they knew there wasn't going to be a 1099 to even know what they actually made. And giving welfare moms, jobs going after "deadbeat dads" seems genius on the surface.....except for one very important detail....They are not bounty hunters! All they did when they needed more money to get their girlfriends in, was "triple bill" the stand up guys who took the responsibility for their kids, after all they knew where they were, by the "payoff support paid in full" records on their computer. You haven't saved the children or the moms (your daughters) if 1/2 the pool of men to choose from are downtrodden, basket cases, living in silent desparation over lopsided parent rights, and family court judges who (in the 80's when in CA every guy was labeled a molester during a divorce) didn't have the discernment level of a "crack whore on LSD" .This continual "what they want to hear" speech repertoire, billions for education,... what they don't tell you is "the nothing on the other side" part, and the "whoever falls through the cracks", just "hide em on some campsite". And I will for sake of our troops, stay completely off the subject of the war, (as we were not in Iraq before 9/11)..Bush was taliking out the side of his neck when he spoke about getting USA off the need for oil with alternate fuels, he obviously did nothing to enforce auto makers to downsize their designs, most new vehicals on the road today are gas hog trucks and SUV's, and all the BIO fuel advanced production does nothing when the oil companies control the gas stations, and don't make the supply availiable...Just over and over favortism pandering, makes me puke to think about it. Both parties have proven that they are either, void of understanding planning and executing logical solutions, or frustrated by the bypartisan power parades, subsquently resign to thinking, all they need to do is "business as usual" smile, pretend to care...and then float through their term, by passing the buck round and round. Without a 3rd party, set up for at least, the election "after" this one, or country will be toast...and that is IF we can light this fire under demreps butts right now by sticking to 3rd regardless of all the worthless hype,of paid for (with secret kickback) media propaganda!
Whenever a group gets together and makes a stance for all the rest, its human nature for an equal and opposite one to rise against it, because freedom means We dont want to all be forced one way, we want to choose as we go. So the liberal, conservative, democrate, republican, name tags are just letters in a row. Be sensible, bring in a 3rd party or be partly culpable for the demise of this once great nation, I now am too ashamed to put out my flag for anymore.

Answer 9

If his supporters are the type of person who makes huge, sweeping, uninformed generalizations like you yourself just did, then nope, he's hasn't got a prayer. With friends like you, he doesn't need any enemies.

Answer 10

Did JFK running against all those Protestant Republicans. Yes
