I'm white and I wouldn't vote Obama into office not because he's black but because he's part Muslim (which after 9-11 even 1/16 is enough to omit my vote) and he hasn't had nearly enough experiance in my opinion to handle the economy, the war, and immigration. Give him a few more years when terrorists aren't a threat and I know his Senate record better then hell why not? I wouldn't vote for McCain either. If you're going to analyze whites also analyze blacks. Obama has a huge lead among blacks moreso than any other presidential nominee in the histoy of the USA. Do you think all or even most of them have researched this nominee or is it just because he's black and can "relate". That's equally ignorant to not voting for a nominee because of his race.

I couldn't think of anything else.

yea, I'm white and I dont like obama, not because i'm racist, it's because he's inexperienced. I never like bush either and he's white.

Ever notice that the longer he is in the race the more unfavorable he gets?

One can only parrot the words "Audacious", "Hope, and "Change" so often while still playing politics as usual before even the most dense of people start seeing through that crap.

I wouldn't vote for Obama, even if he was white.  I just don't think he'd do a good job.  All he does is talk about change, but he won't do anything he talks about

How about this... the only reason I would vote for Obama is because most of the people supporting him, the same ones that call anybody who wouldn't vote for him a racist, would be the first to lose their pathetic jobs in the economy he will create with his tax increases. It's almost funny, if not pathetically sad, how little Obama supporters know about economics! Then we would truly be able to ask the question "How can so many Americans be so stupid??" and actually be correct.

For one thing, you can't even be "part Muslim" at all (Obama is not Muslim), and for a second thing, it's pretty sad that you wouldn't vote for someone because of their religion.

(edit)By the way, I'm not planning to vote for Obama either.

Still say that the poll is pretty telling of where the racist elements of society are going to be playing their role in the election.

And if they only vote because of race then why those results


If Barack Obama is elected President, do you think race relations in the United States will get better, get worse, or stay about the same?

         Better Worse Same
White* 29     19      48
Black* 47      7        42


Seems like 42% blacks see no effect of Obama on race. 19% whites see it as worse!

And yeah the black racists really think Obama is gonna favor them over whites? Not



If Barack Obama is elected President, do you think the policies of his administration would favor whites over blacks, favor blacks over whites, or would they treat both groups the same

          favor white    favor black  same
White* 1                16               79
Black* 3                 4                 90


And only black racists think that Mccain will favor whites?


If John McCain is elected President, do you think the policies of his administration would favor whites over blacks, favor blacks over whites, or would they treat both groups the same

          favor white   favor black   same
White* 12               1                82 5
Black* 39                                 50


Oh yeah thats right theres alot of whites who are racist against whites (all those liberals?)

Or maybe race is NOT the reason black dont trust McCain? Maybe its more about RICH/POOR


If John McCain is elected President, do you think the policies of his administration would favor rich over poor, favor poor over rich, or would they treat both groups the same?

          favor rich  favor poor same
White* 49           3              43 6
Black*  81           2              13
