I have come to a conclusion that the U.S. will never change its thoughts of being a narrow-minded nation. The world leader nation has never changed
its prejudiced thoughts; it will bend the rules of things it cannot change. Although many good things had happened in a not so distant past, a lot of
progress needs to be done.
But the beauty of what America was intended to be is that everyone CAN be prejudice. An opinion is an opinion and we should all be afforded those
opinions. Women (and realize that, obviously from my screen name, I am a woman) have proven to base their decisions and actions on emotion rather than
logic and the black folk, for the most part (although I have known and heard some rather great things from black ppl) as better off not being in
leadership. *flame away* I can handle it
I am talking about the fact that the U.S. will NEVER be ready for a Black or Female President. Even if Obama gets elected, sadly he
will not last.
I am not biased on skin color when it comes to a president, but Obama's stance on the issues are very socialistic and THAT I AM against. Just ask me
to and I will be happy to make a thread that *proves* he is anti constitutional based on his issues... same goes for McCain (and he is white,
*der*).
Having a woman president though is out of the question for me. I REFUSE to vote for a woman bc we, no matter how hard we try to escape this, base
things on emotions (even Rosa Parks herself said she was merely lucky that her stance made the impact it did bc it was based on emotions rather than
logic).
What would a Female or a Black President do to the U.S? Is the U.S. still under the provocative thought of the “white power” or
“machismo power” where the nation can ONLY be run by a white man?
In the case of a female it is up for grabs. There have been a few good things that came about as a result of women following their emotions, but there
have been MANY negative things come about as well. It is pretty much up for grabs whether her decisions will turn out good or bad considering that
most likely they will be based on emotion (as is our nature) rather than logic.
If, let's say Obama, were to have proven that he never showed an inclination toward the black race and proven to never shown dislike for the white
population AS WELL AS been consistent in his history as elected official and through his stances on issues to be SPOT ON in line with the constitution
as given to us by the founding fathers of this country, then I would vote for him despite his race and/or affiliation with a certain party.
What are its Citizens afraid of?
I can't speak for anyone else, but I am no more afraid than I was before considering who will most likely be elected. I am not so much fearful as I
would like to have hope that my children will grow up in a world that doesn't downgrade individuality for the more popular view of socialism.. My
sons are the reason that I seek with EVERYTHING inside of me the truth. They are the reason that I would never settle on a woman calling the shots or
for someone, despite skin color, who would erase everything that makes them who they are in order to turn them into mindless unthinking drones!
Bring it on though! I will fight till death to protect THEIR rights as humans to think and live how they should choose. Come up against a momma who
actually understands the value of life and you may have met your match, if only for all of 5 seconds
What do the Citizens think it may happen if that takes place?
Study the stances and what we have been given by our founding fathers and THEN line them up against the issues and maybe you will understand.
Otherwise, don't ask such retarded questions.
I am dropping the rest of your post. I grew bored with you mindless ignorance.
*Flame away* but at least bring fact to the table!
