Too many people voted for him because of race and not because of what he had to offer ... I know people that stated they voted for him (both times) because he was black and wanted to say they voted for the first black president.

This is where having discussions and positive healthy discord with people comes in. Explain how we are NOT racist! I had a long discussion with a 3-generation Hispanic -American when sanctuary cities was arising in California ---PRE-ELECTION. Nutshell version ...I am NOT a debater so This was probably not best route, but I "bookended" the convo so she came to her own conclusions.

I said YOU think someone like ME is a racist, because I don't want them coming here ILLEGALLY. I asked about her family - typical 3rd Gen LEGAL immigrants - hardworking, yes endured racism of prior times, parents insisted on Englis h and hard work, sacrificed for each future generation, did the American melting pot model.

I said THESE people crossing boarders have been doing it since your parents got here. But they don't want to come work like your parents and grandparents to build up what you have, they want to skip the legalities and hard work and make YOU GIVE them what YOU have. You think you should, JUST BECAUSE THEIR SKIN IS YOUR COLOR! But, didn't the whole civil rights thing teach us it's not color, it's what's insid e? These people don't have the same work ethic, law abiding morals, and social mores , or living standards you do. Have you BEEN to Mexico?! It's not color, it's a mis-match of ideals and desire to BE AMERICAN FIRST. AND for you to think I should pay for these ideals because of MY skin color is just as bad as if i didn't want them in because of their skin color. She said, "wow, I am The one being racist!". BINGO! RED PILL!

Same goes for Af-AMERICANS and Hussein. This guy has your skin color, but know s nothing about your heart, soul, or plight, BECAUSE he is not one of you! Kenyan-African, madras educated, international is not the same as African-American! It's cult-ure not color, and that's what the left has figured out to manipulate backwards and take down our melting pot culture THAT IS PART OF WHAT MAKES AMERICA GREAT!! MAKES--as in STILL ACTIVELY WORKING ON IT!! MAGA MAGA MAGA!!! Emphasis on GREAT, not necessarily AGAIN like it wa s in some decade the left wants to attach to AGAIN, but the best best part of the greatness built over those decades!

I am. I was 19. Living in DC. The hype got me but McStain was a known imbicil and traitor.

I didn't like Romney either but I couldn't vote obama again...
