Who thought conservatives would find their best allies in Clinton supporters -- allied by their desire to bring down minorities seeking power?
So funny. Heh.
A black man finally runs for president and has a decent chance of winning, and his passport file is compromised. Is anybody surprised? 3/21/2008 10:56:38 AM |

I don't support Obama because his policies are not well thought out. As I have said in many, many previous posts....
1) it is unclear what he will do in Iraq. He claims to want pull out "immediatley", but remarks he made in 2006 and remarks his staff have made in subsequent years contradict this sentiment. Links can be provided on request (I've posted them 10-12 other times, so i don't think it's necc unless someone can't find them).
2) his health care plan (as presented) is ill conceived. It would, without a doubt, raise premiums and make it harder for working poor to afford health insurance. It also does not address the primary crisis in health care--rising costs. In fact, by increasing demand for health care resources, his plan will likely make the problem worse.
3) His position on NAFTA is either dumb or dishonest. If he actually thinks closing America off to its largest trading partner (Canada) will make us richer, he's crazy. If he doesn't think this, then he's a liar.
And I could keep going on. I consider myself a progressive, but I don't believe Obama is the best candidate running for President. And it has nothing to do with his race. 3/21/2008 11:09:27 AM |

minority can apply to both especially when you're talking about changing the current dominant political paradigm
both women and blacks had to carry out steps and processes to get the same rights that white males had all along
its kind of funny that hillary and barack...both proponents of affirmative action, which does apply to both women and racial minorities, are proponents of affirmative action because they want to see minorities like women and blacks have equal opportunities...but they obviously dont want to see the other one succeed and become president
i bet both of them wish their opponent was john edwards or some other white male cause they cant really pander using the affirmative action card] 3/21/2008 11:10:37 AM |

SandSanta,
Minority usually refers to minority in political and economic power. Women comprise 50% of the population, but less than 1% of the elected reps in the House and Senate are women. And very few CEOs of companies, professors at Universities, etc are women.
I don't think that's totally 100% discrimination. But, I don't believe it's a stretch to call them a minority either.

A bunch of tokens that are safe. They're the "good ones". Forget the fact that none of them support the rational interests of their community. These people are the ultimate cases of affirmative action -- selected solely because their color will make Republicans appear not racist. Nevermind that they're all as self-loathing as a Bay Area Liberal.

Oh they're there for their merits, but also because they're blacks with specific views. Just like how when FOX News wants to criticize Obama, they pull out a full black cast of "commentators". Practically nobody in their community agrees with them, but they're selected so as to seem "not racist".
