Look at Obama. Now think, how could he be any better? I can't think of anything substantial.

It's not wishful thinking at all. It would be wishful thinking if black people would have been allowed to vote and run for Presidency since the early 1800s.

You have a black dude and woman as the only 2 democrats with chances. I think that's very remarkable. More to come in the future. I wouldn't be "worried" at all if I were pro-not-white-male-president. Actually I don't think Obama is as great as you make it look. Yes he can speak and he has charisma. What about his substance, though? Nothing to write home about. I'm very surprised at how many votes he gets. Wouldn't have seen that coming a year ago.

--- Quote from: The King of Mitt Romney's Fan Club on January 25, 2008, 04:16:44 PM ---I was watching CNN or some other news show, and one of the commentators was saying, the US is ready for a black president, but that person probably won't be Obama.
I was thinking about this, and really, it seems to me, if Obama can't win, no black candidate can. Think about it. He is the best black presidential candidate the US has ever seen. He seems like one of the best candidates the US has seen in a while PERIOD.
If Obama can't win, can you actually imagine a different black candidate in the next 50 years having a better shot? Without sounding like some kind of racist, he is the perfect black candidate. He speaks well, he has carisma, he is completely unbiased to his own race. He doesn't use race to his advantage.
It's now or never (in our life times). For all the people who complain that a minority can't win, or compete, the right man is here, NOW! It can't get better then this. Have you ever seen a person like Obama running for president? He's one in a million!
If you want a black candidate to be president one day, and you don't vote for Obama, then you should think to yourself, will another person of color have the same chance Obama does?
Life is a bitch, so don't vote for one. Hillary shouldn't be president, and that reason is Bill. Bill flys around the country, lying to people for his wife. He is a lunatic. He screams, he gets red in the face. He lies. It's embarrassing. Thats the plan!! It's a trick. Hillary knows what Bill is going to say, and she loves every second of it, because she doesn't have to take responsibility for it. A vote for Hillary, is a vote for Bill.
It's now or never for a black candidate. No one like Obama will come around for decades.
Finally, the notion that whoever the democrats pick, will win, is fundamentally wrong. Hillary is not as strong as she seems. People hate her. No one hates Obama. The election is popularity contest. Thats why Bush won. Obama can beat the GOP. Hillary can't.

lmao ok let's put one of the most powerful nations, if not the most, on hands of someone that just has charisma. You may be starving and shit, but hey, he speaks well. I don't mean he should or shouldn't be president, but if you are voting him or any other, don't judge over "charisma", research a little bit, please. And by the way, did he pay you for this post?
