re: It's his policies, not the color of his skin. Yeah right. The truth is revealed

Explain the difference between the two, if you can.

I will tell you a big difference...I don't think many black folks who voted for Obama simply because he is black will deny it...hell many, many black celebrities have said so in VERY public ways....on the other hand the number of white people who will publicly admit that they didn't vote for Obama because he is black is fricking miniscule...short of a klan leader or other type I have never heard anyone publicly say as much.

However...I am a white, southern male. I live among white men and white people in general...and I can't begin to estimate the number of people I have had tell me all sorts of vile, hateful shite about Obama which was solely based on the color of his skin. The number is HUGE...it is, in fact, a universal theme....in my experience every anti-Obama person I have ever had identify themselves to me....and they are numerous....initially did so because he is black....issues were all secondary IF they existed at all....most never have to get to issues because skin color is reason enough.....

Now I know that ya'll will claim I live among the only last remaining vestige of racism known in the world and that the people I have had tell me these things are uniquely in my experience and do not exist outside of my reality. Of course this is insane but some of you will make that claim, and then, when you are with your friends and family you will tell one another about how you have the black man who is president primarily because he is black and issues are only used to hate him publicly.

I don't know why ya'll don't just own it....everyone knows it anyway....be proud of your hatred just like black people were proud to vote for a black man simply because he was black (and, on no small scale, a democrat...Herman Caine is a good example of a black man black folks owund't vote for in numbers so large...)
