Politics - United States
OK! so Rednecks for Obama... are we finally going to bridge the gap between the races?
We all know that there are some voters that are hesistant to vote for Sen. Obama purely based on racial differences... well Tony Viessman, 74, and Les Spencer, 60, got politically active last year when it occurred to them there must be other lower income, rural, beer-drinking, gun-loving, NASCAR race enthusiasts fed up with business as usual in Washington, They started http://us.rd.yahoo.com/dailynews/afp/ts_afp/storytext/usvoteo... and are attempting to reach out to traditionally republican, voters like them selves... What do you think?

Racism and any other form of discrimination will linger around. Obama in office will unite some people of different races; however, there will still be some more that will continue to hate and fight others for whatever reason. Just as the ending of the Jim Crow era through Civil Rights, some whites, blacks and other races will unite and progress to the future, while some of the other whites, blacks, and other races will separate even more. It's just a fact of life.
Oh...and I'm a gun loving, NASCAR race loving, lower income guy, does that make me a red neck, even if I'm classified as black? = D -

Ayers, "Kill all the rich people...Bring the revolution home. Kill your parents."
Ayers participated in the bombings of the New York City Police Headquarters in 1970, the Capitol Building in 1971 and the Pentagon in 1972.
He was the leader of the Communist, terrorist group, Weatherman.
"Emerging in 1969 as the most militant wing of the SDS's Revolutionary Youth Movement, the fledgling Weatherman issued a "manifesto" eschewing nonviolence and calling instead for armed opposition to U.S. policies; advocating the overthrow of capitalism; exhorting white radicals to trigger a worldwide revolution by fighting in the streets of the "mother country"; and proclaiming that the time had come to launch a race war against the "white" United States on behalf of the non-white Third World.
FBI files from 1976, recently made public under the Freedom of Information Act, confirm the connections between Weatherman, Havana, and Moscow. Weatherman leaders like Mark Rudd traveled illegally to Havana in 1968 to engage in terrorist training. There, camps set up by Soviet KGB Colonel Vadim Kotchergine were educating Westerners both in Marxist philosophy and urban warfare."
It is amazing how the liberals use their concept of moral equivalency to counter legitimate facts about Obama's ass...Ayers, "Kill all the rich people...Bring the revolution home. Kill your parents."

It is amazing how the liberals use their concept of moral equivalency to counter legitimate facts about Obama's associations...instead of just accepting the truth about their socialist candidate.
It is even more amazing that approx. 50% of registered voters are apparently planning on voting for obama.
His church of 20 years is founded on a racist, Marxist ideology...similar to the Weatherman terrorist group. The church has removed references which suggest James Cone's book as required reading for its parishioners. James Cone is the founder of Liberation Theology. He wrote the following:
"Black theology refuses to accept a God who is not identified totally with the goals of the black community. If God is not for us and against white people, then he is a murderer, and we had better kill him. The task of black theology is to kill Gods who do not belong to the black community ... Black theology will accept only the love of God which participates in the destruction of the white enemy. What we need is the divine love as expressed in Black Power, which is the power of black people to destroy their oppressors here and now by any means at their disposal. Unless God is participating in this holy activity, we must reject his love."
It couldn't possibly be more clear that Obama is aligned with both of these Marxist ideologies. I can only assume that the American people who are planning on votin for him are victims of liberal media spin. I saw where a journalist was showing young people at one of the rock concerts where the Democrats were promoting their get out the vote campaign photos of Biden, Obama, McCain, Palin and Judge Judy. Most didn't not know who any of them were, except for Obama...and Judge Judy. It is patently obvious how the Democrat party preys on the uninformed.(less) -

I think that, "lower income, rural, beer-drinking, gun-loving, NASCAR race enthusiasts fed up with business as usual in Washington", isn't an issue of race, and I am sick of (OHB currently) pandering to the classes! Change? MY multi-racial ass, it's status quo,ante in this campaign! Divide and conquer and apparently Obama isn't above such political ploys! -

I've got news for everyone. Obama ain't black. Last time I checked, he had mixed-race parents. I can't stand him because he's a politician, just like McCain. I wish the mudia would quit trying to make this a race issue, cuz it ain't. But, good for those "good ol' boys" in getting involved and standing up for their beliefs. That's what this great country is all about. -

Obama’s ties to Bill Ayers are numerous. Bill and Bernadine Ayers hosted a fundraiser for Obama during his first run for the state Senate. Every rung on the political ladder Obama climbed, Ayers or his father Tom were there to help him along and work the Chicago machine.
At no time were Obama’s ties to communist Ayers stronger than during the period when they were both involved in Chicago’s Alliance for Better Schools and the Chicago Annenberg Challenge.
Under the guise of “school reform,” Obama and Ayers conspired to advance the concept of Local School Councils, which look eerily similar to efforts by regimes like those in Nicaragua under the Sandinistas and Venezuela under Hugo Chavez to impose control over teachers and their independent unions by an authoritarian regime.
Do we want a two-faced commander-in-chief who publicly denies knowing a terrorist, yet takes his campaign contributions from and is sponsored by the terrorists’ family and friends, including Maoist and communist Carl Davidson? Do we want a morally flexible commander-in-chief who owes a great deal to the terrorist’s family in his rise to power?
