Which isn't the case. I just didn't agree with Obama's policies.
So I asked this person several times if I'm so uncomfortable then why was I backing Ben Carson? She wouldn't answer my question.
So I wonder how do people justify calling people who don't support Obama racist when these same people would have voted for Ben Carson?

That's easy dummy, Ben Carson isn't a real black man, no conservative black man is. Racism is not agreeing with liberal blacks on EVERYTHING.

You should've corrected the person and said 'no I was uncomfortable with a Kenyan in office'

Should have said "yeah, you're right. I was hoping for a decent human being. Color doesn't matter."

You were trying to combat emotion with logic. She really didn't care what your reasoning was, all she saw was a white person that didn't approve of the job a black person was doing therefore that white person can be nothing other than racist.
What you experienced is an ignorant bigot, "ignorant" because she refuses to see her own racial prejudices and how they shape her views of others.

About 20 years ago a white woman was mugged by a black guy. She was not harmed, just robbed. She claimed that this caused her extreme discomfort working in an office with black males. She knew the company couldn't fire the black males to accommodate her. Her goal was to qualify for disability payments. She didn't get them.

I was never uncomfortable with a black man in office.
I was uncomfortable with THAT black man in office.
I was uncomfortable with THAT black man in office.

Because according to chalmetteowl, Ben Carson has black skin. That doesn't mean he's black.
Duh you elitist white racist pig.

The problem with her logic is that Obama voters swapped to Trump. The same people that were "uncomfortable with a black man in office" voted for that black man.

These maps show where the Trump surge happened and the places that flipped from supporting President Obama in 2012 to going for the Republican nominee and billionaire real-estate mogul just four years later.
In some places, the changes were more concentrated. Just three counties flipped from Obama to Trump in the Keystone State — Erie County along the Ohio border, Northampton County in the Allentown suburbs and Luzerne County, where the Wilkes-Barre suburbs. Luzerne saw a 25-point swing from Obama to Trump. Traditionally red counties in Pennsylvania, in particular, saw a massive shift in the margins toward Trump, as well.
But in Wisconsin — the state that ended up putting Trump over the top in the electoral vote early Wednesday morning — 22 counties that had once voted for Obama switched to Trump. Some of those counties — such as Sawyer, Forest and Adams — have some of the highest unemployment rates in the state.
Michigan had 12 counties that went from blue to red, including critical Macomb in the Detroit suburbs and the swing counties of Calhoun and Monroe.
Iowa had a whopping 31 of its 99 counties that went from the Obama column to Trump's. The bellwether county of Cedar, which has picked the winner of every presidential race since 1992, again got it right. Even though Obama carried it by 4 points in 2012, Trump won it by 18 this year.
I voted for Obama in 08 and haven't voted for a Democrat since that awful mistake.

For 8 years I was told if I disagreed with the President, I was racist.
Now if I agree with the President, I'm racist.
Now if I agree with the President, I'm racist.

quote:The question you should ask her is does she support folks like Ben Carson, Clarence Thomas, Condi Rice, Tim Scott? Does she support the writings of Larry Elder, Thomas Sowell, Armstrong Williams, or Niger Innis. Which ones specifically, and why?
So I wonder how do people justify calling people who don't support Obama racist when these same people would have voted for Ben Carson?
When she answers negatively, suggest she address her racism.
