I guess they broke the "good negro" rules when they decided they could be President and first lady. They got all uppity abd shitt. I believe barry will win, but anyone who thought electing a black man named Barack Hussein Obama would be easy was living in a dream world. If Barry loses the only thing good that will come of it is that finally, white people will see just how racist this country still is and we black folks won't have to hear anymore crap about it being in our heads.

Many of us have concluded that Obama should be way ahead now. We can't help but believe that the reason he is not way far ahead is race. Metro Detroit is the most segregated area of the country. That is why Michigan is seen as leans Dems instead of strong Dem state. <BR/><BR/>This disgusts me to no end.

Growing up in the "hood" in Boston then moving to Ventura California in high school, going to college in San Diego and hanging in LA, I can relate. At 17, hanging in LA people would always comment I sounded "white" I didn't know my tone had changed that much,my slang, my use of parts of phrases, less bass in the voice I guess. I know they weren't implying I sounded "white" because I used correct English, because I used the same words I used in Boston. They thought I was not use to being around black folk because of the way I sounded, I could have taken this negatively and rejected blacks by viewing them as rejecting me. But I ignored the statements and tried and succeeded in assimilating back to black. Funny when I visited Boston in my twenties they thought I sounded country because of the LA accent. Sometimes we feel our own people are rejecting us because of some perceived differences and we reject our people but we have to try and ignore the comments and be head strong. When I went back to Cali they stated I sounded like a Bostonian!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23428832.post-66974299056811241802008-08-20T17:31:00.000-04:002008-08-20T17:31:00.000-04:00Biden can be the attack dog. With Obama, it's "Hop...Biden can be the attack dog. With Obama, it's "Hope". With Obama/Biden, it's "Hope....with balls." Obama can give the great inspiring speech at the DNC while Biden uses his speech to pour gasoline on Bush's record and toss the lit cigarette.<BR/><BR/>Also, the "VP can bring you a state" thing is more myth than anything. The last time it worked for ANYBODY was JFK picking LBJ damn near 50 years ago.<BR/><BR/>I mean shit, Dick Cheney's from Wyoming. Fucking Wyoming. I dare someone to name one thing they know about Wyoming besides its state capital and Dick Cheney being from there.<BR/><BR/>Besides, there's 4 finalists by all reports:<BR/><BR/><BR/>Tim Kaine - He's from Virginia, which Obama has put into play. But he isn't that experienced either. Doubles down on your weakness. His attraction is sheer demographics.<BR/><BR/>Evan Bayh - He's from Indiana, which is a red state that's in play because the GOP is in TROUBLE. So if you think you can win a state with the VP, you can try him. But he's very boring. Would make for a poor attack dog. Shitty speech giver. And while Biden voted for the Iraq War Authorization bill, BAYH CO-AUTHORED THE DAMN THING. That alone makes me (and others) want to see him get hit by a truck rather than be VP.<BR/><BR/>Kathleen Sebeel- Sibel- Sebli- WHATEVER the fuck her name is. Her attraction is she's an old white woman not named Clinton. Yeah. The last thing Obama needs to do is piss off her supporters who are begrudgingly backing him.<BR/><BR/>If you could find someone from Ohio, that would be PERFECT, but their Senator was elected in 06, and the Governor has shown zero interest in being VP. Also, da Guv's poll numbers have been slipping and polls conducted show that he'd wouldn't help Obama for shit, proving my earlier point.<BR/><BR/>The bright side is, McCain seems actually interested in this batfuck insane LOCO crazy idea of picking a pro-choice running mate. Or someone pro-choice AND anti-gun, Lieberman. Imagine the Hannity-crowd's reaction if he did that. And if he doesn't....Romney? Biden would tear Romney a new bellybutton in any debate and leave him for dead.

Everyone has their way of speaking and living their life. No one should be judging and assuming that because I’m black, I have to speak in that hip-hop way. That’s something I prefer not to do.”<BR/><BR/> “I always went to private schools - Bank Street elementary, Columbia Prep - so I was surrounded by people like me.

You better believe that members of MSM as well as the evil empire are on the O man's email list, so it will be out immediately, despite the fact that it's not supposed to be sent until Friday night.<BR/><BR/>I don't think it will be Biden. Not just because I actually believe him when he says he's not the guy, but the O man needs a relative Washington outsider, which is why he'll probably pick Kaine. He can't pick a woman, because it would piss off all the Hillarites. But picking Clinton would be disastrous. Nothing galvanizes the rethuglicans like the common enemy of Clinton. Folk who aren't too excited about Mr. Morton, will come out in force just to stop Clinton. <BR/><BR/>Unfortunately, Obama's attempt to run a campaign "antithetical" to politics as usual has left him no wiggle room. His Ivy league perch, while idyllic and idealistic is a very narrow precipice. To come down off of it and get down and dirty puts him at risk of being attacked for behaving like everyone else--another charge of flip-flopping, or that he can't be trusted to do what he says. We know he is capable of getting down and dirty. He did come up through the Chicago political machine after all. Perhaps he can figure out a way to do the damage and leave the gloves at the scene of the crime--using gloves that "don't fit".<BR/><BR/>The 800-pound gorilla in the room seems to be seen only by folk here and elsewhere in the "diasporic blogosphere". Obama is black, and Americans ain't ready. The so-called enlightened are really looking for any excuse not to vote for him, so they can say it wasn't because he was black. Independents considering Mr. Morton are just looking for the least of a reason to vote for him.<BR/>Americans will say they are ready for the "graying" on the White House, but what they do in the poll booth is totally a different matter.<BR/><BR/>Seems that some other folk are starting to admit this sad reality. I listen to conservative talk radio(until I'm ready to puke)so as to hear what the enemy is thinking and saying. But this morning, I heard it said that race is the real issue--which explained Mr. Morton's increasing edge in at least some polls. I was impressed that some right white folk see the reality--even though the host said he had to admit that he thought the country was past that--until now.<BR/><BR/>I just hope there are enough un-polled black folk, and progressive youth who will come out in November. I ain't holding my breath, but I'm gonna keep drinking the O-aid until there are no more refills.<BR/><BR/>On another subject. Congrats to you for your yawdie!
