    I voted because I saw his issues and I agreed with them.

    That and I don't want McCain in office. A lot of people didn't vote base on race. I don't care if he is whole or half black. I don't care if he is half or whole white.

    I like his issues. I like that he is caring about the citizens. :)

    I think either way he will get beef from people. Being Black, half black, different, His name. Some black folks don't like half breeds. Same with white people. everyone is gonna have issues. But then, that is another reason WHY people are voting for him. He speaks a good game. He has allot of good things to offer. And If he was full black I do think it would be way different. Sadly not for the best.

    Excellent Question.

    Who knows? Either way, I agree with the other user, folks would still be salty. I do think he'd most likely get more flack if he was like, a Chocolate 100% Black American man. White Americans constitute the majority, and most of them HATE that image. They can deal with a half black guy, but perhaps having a dark Black man leading over them would be to hard to swallow.

    You know, I was wondering this myself...just as I was contemplating buying an FM radio. Do you think it will catch on? I mean, there's really nothing wrong with AM, right? Oh well, at least I have my BetaMax recorder all hooked up and ready to record the latest episode of Dallas. I wonder if JR is going to get shot!

    people were racist enough to him for being half white if he was full black they wouldnt have voted him in most white people are ignorant like that.
