Quite true, I mean tho why is it a big deal is he's half white, do you think raciest haters will distinguish that fact?

People are such morons.


-- Posted by Missing Piece at 1:10 pm on Nov. 11, 2008

My mom seems to think that it'll weaken our country socially (like with race issues between our citizens) and will open an opportunity for other nations to invade.

I don't think that'll happen but oh well.

I was going to say a higher number, but I didn't want a bunch of Americans all attacking me.

It's not a compliment or insult. Obama's race was one of the main issues people had with him becoming president.


-- Posted by kidd rune at 1:32 pm on Nov. 11, 2008

Well - now Blacks have no reason to blame thier problems on YT because of slavery/segregation.

They have a "Brutha" in the White house!

I think you will find that one of the main reasons Obama won is because 96% of Blacks voted for him.

I bet theres a fair few rasicts in that lot.


-- Posted by kidd rune at 3:03 pm on Nov. 11, 2008


white people lack brain cells
The average White brain is 8-12% heavier than the average Black brain.

The average supragranular layer of the Negro brain is about 15% thinner than that of the average White brain.

The average Black frontal lobes are are smaller relative to body weight, less fissured, and less complex than the average White brain.


Just to let you know...

Its not big really but for the US thats been so stuck up about race its a first thats all.


-- Posted by katjassidekick at 10:16 pm on Nov. 11, 2008

It really isn't a big deal at all. What matters is that he has a good heart, a bright mind, and some good ideas for this country. Let's see if he could fulfill the majority of the things he said he could.
