...and if I am accused by one more person of that, I will get really pissed.
Many of my friends have jumped on the Obama wagon. Heck, for a few seconds I thought about it. I don't mind people with different opinions than me, more often than not I learn something from other people, it is called "listening" for some of you out there. I can see what they value about him. But, didn't we learn from Clinton that a great public speaker doesn't mean the best president?
But more often than not, people here McCain out of my mouth and the ears are turned off and the rhetoric is turned on.
I DON'T CARE THAT OBAMA IS BLACK!!!!
This is why I am not voting for him:

and if you have a problem with the email that was unknowingly circulated based on the article above which included ridiculous "biblical" references and other stupid information, read Mr. Blackwell's rebuttal to that email.
As a southern-white-male-who-played-sports-in-high-school, I am routinely put into a category of bigotry and ignorance. I, of course hate black people, right? I am not going to sit here and list all the African-American people in my life, I don't have to. But when you are preaching your sermons against bigotry and hate, please inlcude me in your arguement as someone against those ideals. As someone who disagrees with a canidate's views and not their skin color.

I agree. It sucks that people like you, who disagree with Obama might get labeled a "racist" even though they only disagree with his politics. You are allowed my friend to disagree with whomever you choose, yay for America. I, however, think you are going straight to hell for voting for McCain. *smile* TOTALLY joking. And thank you for having an opinion and getting involved in an election that means so much to our generation. Kudos, my friend!
