War? No, thats ridiculous.

No, it wouldn't cause a war. Most of those people threatening to kill if he's elected are just talking.
I don't believe there will be riots, either. Or at least not many. If people were seriously opposed to a Black president, they would be protesting and parading now. Someone that prejudiced wouldn't sit back and wait until he's actually elected to protest--they would be trying to forestall his being elected in the first place, and not by merely voting for someone else.
Yes, I believe America, as a whole, is ready for a Black president. I know I am, although I'm not ready for B. Obama because of his politics.

You're carazy to think that they'll be mass hysteria if there is a black President. America is ready for black President, just not a dem.
There simply will not be a second civil war

there couldn't be another war- war has to be declared by our government. Our government isn't going to declare a war on itself... but I'm sure that there are going to be a lot of unhappy people. But, if Obama is elected, they're going to have to suck it up. There are plenty of presidents that were immoral and did illegal things- they should be lucky if Obama is elected. Maybe he can pull us out of this ridiculous amount of debt our current dumbAsS president has gotten us into. I know plenty of people that talk about how much they dislike Bush, but no one does anything.

I don't think it would cause a war. Sure people might try to kill him because of his race but it wouldn't incite a war. WHere do you think these riots that you are so sure would occur going to happen? Plus the South remembers the whupin' we put on them before, they don't want it again

no. the vast majority of people are rather racially accepting. its not like half and half like back then its maybe 99% to 1%. nothing on that scale could ever happen, but thats not to say that some ignorant fools wont form less than peaceful protests.

No, there will not be another betweeen whites and blacks. There will be one between Whites and Latinos. I as a black male will become a carpet bagger and get rich off the misery of others.
