The Republicans solidified Obama's presidency with their choice of candidates. McCain and Romney were extremely horrible choices and the conservative base didn't get excited to vote for those two cucks. A lot of conservatives stayed home.

You cannot make a democrat believe anything due to logic.

Not to sound conspiratorial BUT, "I" believe he was more chosen to be Pres., than he was "elected" in.

Elected on merit?
Nope
White guilt?
Some of it
Black vote?
A lot of it

Crazy?

Racism is valuable tool for Democrats.

They still believe America is this extremely racist place despite the fact a black man was elected not once, BUT TWICE, as President.

I mean, the main qualification as VP for a party that is supposed to be anti-racist is the person's race.

yes indeed

The goal should be not to eliminate the tool (that's not really possible)
but rather, to make it a worthless tool.

Pakistan ( Islam) is sexist how did Benazir Bhutto get elected twice?


Lol, you left out the part where she was widely hated, convicted multiple times for massive corruption scandal and then they ultimately assassinated the frick out of her when she refused to stay the hell out of politics after all that.

So yeah, nice analogy, lol.

Altruism rightfully has no place in politics

Actual answer from dipshits like Robin Diangelo and Ibram X Kendi:

Whites voting for Obama is an act of racism because it leads them to feel like they aren’t racist. An act of anti-racism by whites is actually racist because it leads whites to not see their own whiteness and their own complicity in a racist system.

No shite. That’s how America will always be racist even if the entire government was elected blacks.

I really thought electing a black man as president would put "America is racist" narrative to bed. Boy was I naive.


Because you thought racism would just be over?

The real question is...If the so-called systemic racism existed why didn't our first gay and black prez do something about it?

If I had meant that I would have said that. I did not but what I have said on this forum is that I think blacks have had a reason to be pissed lately but that justified protest does not justify destruction or violence

Still, I don’t get how America can be as racist now as we are hearing but yet elected a black president and then re-elected him
