Political Quote
I normally do not post in the "Politics" section.
My opinions are just that. Mine. You can't change mine, and I can't change yours. I don't care who you are voting for. Nor do you care who I am voting for. That being said, I did find this quote. And I agree with it. "It is not racist to question whether an untested, inexperienced Senator with no legislative or military record should be our President." /My flamewar. Let me show you it.

Well I agree with that totally.
And I think everyone on this board will too. I don't think anyone here judges Obama on his skin colour, otherwise the many many discussions about his politics, promises, experience and background would not be happening. Do I think there are some people in America who do judge him on his skin colour? Yes I do - I've seen evidence of it online.

I agree too, with both of you and the quote. Just seems like pissin into the wind to question anything about Obama here. McCain has plenty of faults too.

I think of it this way. Mozart didn't have experience when he started performing and composing when he was 4.
Einstein was working as a patent clerk when he wrote his theory of relativity. Some people are born to do great things that can change the world for the better.
