For the same reason you profess to know my skin tone.
My motive will only be if the shoe fits.
Your words are soaked in the privilege of those with lighter skin.
I accept that you earnestly mean this. I want to be clear: throughout this discussion, I have assumed that you feel you are being fair, impartial, and not racist in the slightest. I have no ill thoughts of you as a person.
Then we are all good.
Yes, I agree there has been instances in about every presidency where the majority rallied... Bush for a time post 9/11 (possibly), the acceptance speech, Osama (possibly). But can't remember the last time I felt that the president had the nation's support for a prolonged period of time.

Osama he says.
I have to admit that this made me laugh. I experienced rascism and discrimination first hand. I have been assaulted, beaten, denied service, spit on, insulted, denied membership and other similar things on a continuing on going basis. So I do have a day to day knowledge of how it feels.
Either you missed that he meant Osama as in Bin Laden or you mean that he was not kille dunder Bush. Either way Bush did get support because of Bin Laden. Bush was able to put a face to the enemy and that lead to support. It was a firm goal.

Let's get real about racism. Anyone focused on their race like it is the first and foremost thing that matters in life is a racist and spits in the face of MLK jr. and his dream.
The following are racist:
The congressional black caucus
NAACP
La Raza
BET
Any black who calls another black person an "uncle tom"
Jesse Jackson, Al Sharpton, Rev. Wright...exclusive black churches
Obama(white cop, white grandma comments) & his justice department (won't prosecute racism by blacks and other minorities)
Liberals have won blacks to their party by handing out government goodies and making them as dependent on government as they were on plantation masters.
Newt explained the Conservative perspective perfectly in the last debate, “I believe every American of every background has been endowed by their creator with the right to pursue happiness. And if that makes liberals unhappy, I'm going to continue to find ways to help poor people learn how to get a job, learn how to get a better job and learn some day to own the job.”
As for Obama being the Food Stamp President:
Newt explains, “The fact is that more people have been put on food stamps by Barack Obama than any president in American history. I know among the politically correct, you're not supposed to use facts that are uncomfortable.”
As for a VP pick by the Republican candidate. They could very well pull a McCain and pick someone no one ever expected.

Feel free to correct me, then. What were the circumstances?
