Car_1, you said that ALL the reasons you did not want Barack Obama to become president weigh heavily on your mind. May I ask what those reasons are?

A white man asked his black friend, "Did you vote for Barack Obama just because he's black?"

The black man responded by saying,"Why not?Hell, in this country men are pulled over everyday just because they're black;passed over for promotions just because they're black; considered to be criminals just because they're black; and there thousands of you did not vote for him just because he is black!

However, you do not seem to have a problem with that! This country was built with the sweat and whip off the black slaves' back, and now a descendent of those same slaves is going to lead the same country where we weren't even considered to be people, where we weren't allowed to be educated, drink from the same water fountains, eat in the same restaurants, or even vote! so yes, I voted for him! But it's not because he's just because he's black, but because he is hope, he is change, and he now allows me to understand when my grandson says that he wants to be president when he grows up, its not a fairy tale but a short term goal.
He now sees, understand and knows that he can achieve, withstand and do ANYTHING just because he's black!"
