Prejudice??
Hmmm, is this a bid to get "guilty whites" to vote Obama again to prove they are not?
http://centurylink.net/news/read.php...org%3E&ps=1018
AP article I found on the news feed from Century link, though. States Poll found over 50% were prejudiced.
Had not seen this posted here sorry if a double post.

Fortunately I have nothing to feel guilty about. But I guess I'm a racist since I didn't (early) vote for him.

I am going to paraphrase a quote from Walid Shoebat. If me being against someone because I completely disagree with what they stand for, their views, and moral standings, offends people to the point of calling me a racist, that is their right. I will die for their right to be offended and state that. But, millions of men and women died for my right, not to care.

You have to wonder what the demographics of this poll were, polls are pretty much worthless. This is all about Obama and how terrible those of us who do not support him are, he could be blue and I could care less. It's the content of his character that bother me.

It is an attempt to reinforce the DNC/MSM narrative. Obama's poll numbers are low, not because of his record, but because we are a racist nation. Even more pathetic than the GOP "war on women" narrative.

I would be more interested in the questions and how they were asked.

Hmmm, that was interesting.
Took a long time to get to the meat of the subject.
Down to around page 23.
Lot of perception questions. Since most folks don't interact a great deal with other races outside of work - the work interaction, what is presented to them through social media and just "who" they run into at the mall lot will greatly color that perception.
So answering those questions the "wrong" way make a person racist?

Brilliant. Like Colin Powells ret. Col Chief of Staff calling the Rep party racist.
Let's see.....Rep are Racist for not voting for the candidate of the other party?
This Col is a moron, and a chump to boot.
What the idiot should have said is "Democrats that vote against BO for no other reason that race are racist".....
There is no way in hell one can 'count' the opposition in those ranks because one would have to totally discount party ideology.
As to the poll quoted...how the hell did he get elected in the first place? Did everyone become racist these last 4 years?
Sounds more like democratic excuse making....then OB won't even have to be resp. for his own failure.

I can't be a racist - I despise his white half too. I didn't vote race either time; honestly, there are far more important reasons to vote against him. It's time the Manchurian Candidate went back to wherever his missing college transcripts say he's from.

For the traitor appears not a traitor; he speaks in accents familiar to his victims, and he wears their face and their arguments, he appeals to the baseness that lies deep in the hearts of all men. He rots the soul of a nation, he works secretly and unknown in the night to undermine the pillars of the city, he infects the body politic so that it can no longer resist. A murderer is less to fear.
