I was under the impression that most people who posted here on ATS were conspiracy theorist, and believed in conspiracies?

The article you linked is nothing whatsoever to do with Obama. He has not endorsed it, he did not orchestrate it - hell as far as I can tell by searching google he's not even commented on it - and yet you chose to link it - solely because of the colour of the skin of the woman who sang the song.
Would such a connection be that farfetched? I've seen some pretty wild theories expounded on this forum! Why does this particular one trouble you so much?
That a small percentage of it's constituents fall into the sociopathic category of mental illness?
Well Ted Bundy was white. Using the same logic what does that tell me about white Americans?
Ted Bundy was a suave, well-educated lawyer like Barack Obama, what should that tell me about Barack Obama?
Corellations can be drawn between any two variables if you try hard enough..

Oh come on!! I want to sing the White National Anthem. I want White Entertainment Television (WET TV). Mrs White America and the National White College Fund (NWCF). Blacks constantly cry about racism but they are the only ones continually perpetuating it. They continually draw lines and constantly make distinctions between the races. I say let it go and be an American not an African American. Slavery happened along time ago. I dont know of any living black slave in America. I also cant think of any living white slave owners. Im tired of hearing about something that happened before any American today was alive. This women saw a chance to get her 15 minutes and took it.
To the poster who made the Obama connection. I see it. Obama has made distinctions between himself and white America. His wife has made distinctions and would this women pulled this stunt if Barack wasnt a presidential canadate?
Before I get flamed for my comments be advised. I have a sister in a "mixed" marraige and I have a beautiful neice and nephew whom I love very much. Along with my brother in law and his family. So dont cry racist.
You have never, and will never be black, therefore you don't know how it feels or what blacks go through.

Hm, true... but I am a minority in a ton of different ways. So, just because I'm white, does that mean that I can't -possibly- associate with how you're feeling?
Okay, let's look at it a different way. If you heard a song about Jews, or like, Jews want a Holocaust Remembrance Month, instead of a day, or Paraplegics want a political party, would you laugh?
I'd never, ever say "You can't possibly know what it feels like to be in my situation." No offense meant at all from this, but- Blacks get a TON of respect and a a group tend to ask for MORE recognition as being different instead of less.
I'd go for integration, if I were black. I go for integration with everything and if there was more integration and less race-specific holidays and events and music and this and that subculture, then Obama would probably win the election and no one would CARE if people are black or white or purple or green or yellow or red.
Just my thought, but hey, I'm not black.

The problem is that there are still people at the top, who just happen to be white, who don't feel the way you do.

I've skimmed through this eleven page thread of garbage and from what I've seen, this one sentence is the only piece of truth in this ignorant hate fest. Unfortunately, very few of our lighter skinned, "cousins", seem to understand this simple point.
