"Is is really about race?" Senator?

The campaign has now turned it’s ugly head back to “Race” once again by the Obama folks. Barack seems to be his own worst enemy. He mentioned race several months ago with the famous “I don’t look like the other guys on the dollar bills” to illicit I don’t know exactly what kind of response….pity? Recently, the campaign took its turn focusing on McCain’s VP pick, which really gave the GOP a much needed boost in the polls. It took Karl Rove and others to get Obama to realize his focus on her was only taking the limelight off himself and squarely on the McCain/Palin ticket. We are indeed grateful. He is now back to playing the race card or rather his left-leaning political pundits seem to be dealing that deck once again. Again, I say “thank you”.

If the Democrats want to remind us that there may be something wrong with electing a person of color to the highest office of the land, we will accept the political support no matter how strange the venue may seem. Personally, I don’t see an issue with people of color, religion, or gender. Laws have been passed and in effect for some time regarding these issues and that is the law of the land, enough said. There are some folks out there who still regard the “black man” as an inferior specimen to the human race, but are those folks really taken seriously anyway?

Now if the people of color are choosing Barack Obama because of his color, then that is racist. If they are choosing him because they believe in his ideals, that is the American way. Of course, it almost always is never viewed from that standpoint. It is always the white man (or woman) that is the racist no matter is it is an issue of color or ideals. I wonder if the Liberal leaning thought police could possibly somehow spin the idea that all of us whiteys who don’t vote for Obama are indeed doing so because we are racist.
