I guess because he is another race, I'm sort of scared of the other race. Cuz we have so much conflict with them.

- Wanda Gibson, undecided voter in WV

I want someone who is a full-blooded American as president.

- Josh Fry, a 24-year-old ambulance driver from Williamson, who "insisted he was not racist."

I heard that Obama is a Muslim and his wife's an atheist.

- Leonard Simpson, a West Virginia Democrat.

I don't think it's being racist necessarily, they just don't like black people that well. The arrogance and all bothers me more than black, but black is a close second.

- West Virginia voter R.K. Horton

White people look out for white people, black people look out for black people.

- Union organizer, just across the border in Pittsburgh

[Obama] takes the cake, because of, you know, who he is.

- Eric Hardy, 38, a former Democrat and president of the West Virginia
Coon Hunters Association. Also, owner of a Osama, Obama, and Chelsea's Mama sign.

Of course, West Virginia is over and done now. Next primary stop: Kentucky...

I really don't want an African-American as President. I thought about it. I think he would put too many minorities in positions over the white race.

- J. K. Patrick, a retired state employee in Inez, Kentucky wearing a "Hillary: Smart Choice" button.

Yes, pretty much.

If white, working-class democrats vote this way (70-30ish), white-working class republicans would be much worse (90-10?). Something along those lines.

Fair enough.

I guess this just proves that people on both sides say incredibly dumb things. Again, proving my point that mudslinging and yellow journalism is useless.

Let's all discuss politics. Not race, racism, age, and other stuff that is irrelevant. I like to discuss policy.

Anyone else game?

I wasn't trying to label the idiots in WV, I was labeling the entire U.S. People of the same color tend to stick together. We act and say different things in private when we are surrounded by people that have the same color of skin. White people look down upon people of any other color in private, it's just the way it is. I am an equal opportunity racist and proud of it. I am racist against the entire human race.

Sorry if I went slightly off topic here, just venting.
