I didn't vote for Obama. Just as I didn't vote for Kerry, Gore, Clinton, or Carter.
I was hopeful that President Obama could help us get past the original sin of slavery, and racism. I'm old enough to remember the last days of Jim Crowe. It's not something I'm proud of.
Beginning with the Skip Gates and the Cambridge Police, and most recently citing Ferguson in an address to the UN the President has made it clear that he is not President of all of America, just another exploiter of racial divide.
As far as Mary Landrieu. She really reveals her ignorance. Ever since Louisiana was a French or Spanish Colony women in La. maintained control of their property brought into a marriage, and were equal owners of any property acquired during marriage.
So she's a fool for saying what she did. Which is not a first.

This is completely accurate. She even said that Republicans would try to twist this into her playing the race card. The most depressing thing is that they did it anyway, and it's likely to work.
How is this "completely accurate" when she neglects to mention it was HER PARTY, the DEM PARTY that harassed, denigrated, and terrorized Republicans for decades, the same decades she says was unfriendly. That's why MLK was a Republican.

One of the reasons that the president's so unpopular is because HE put the moratorium on off-shore drilling. remember?
And Mary didn't do a fricking thing about that.
REMEMBER?

Mary like all Dems have the "plantation mentality" STILL.
She, like Hilary doesn't believe people have sense enough to run their own lives, so they want everything from those working, and they will throw a few crumbs back and around, just enough to stay in power.

It's time for someone to start a stickied, rant-style prediction thread for this race.

Oh, I know exactly why she's doing this. But how did the conversation segue from energy production to misogyny and racism? Desperation, I presume. ![](https://images.tigerdroppings.com/Images/Icons/IconLOL.gif)

If you really believe the white Dems of 40-50 years ago are the Dems of today and their kids, then I don't know what to tell you.
The state is 63.9% white voters
31.5% black
4.6 other
Blacks make up 2.8% of the Rep party in LA
Louisiana went 58% Romney 40% Obama.

The with dems of today are the most racist group there is.
If the black vote ever shifted to a 50/50ish type of split, you would see racism out of the democratic party that this country hasn't seen in generations.

So is the issue race, or something else?

I find it very ironic that the Dems are always preaching about the evil rich white man and then we have Biden for VP.

We are so racist, and sexist that we only elected a brown skinned man as Governor twice, and a woman for Senator 3 times.
