Well he may succumb also because other wise he will be completely ineffectual. Both parties are identical, it's just that the Republicans are a little more 'Jesused up'. In fact the republican have used Jesus to sway many minority voters, which is a sin in and of it self.

We need the American people to make a better effort at understanding what the hell is going on in our country.

So, how do you think voter race will impact the polls? if at all...

Not only race will impact the polls this presidential election but also gender remember. I think Moore's movie totally destroyed Hillary's chances though.

I think race will play a factor when trying to get the ever so mighty swing vote in middle America.

Past race and gender it would be incredible to see the day where our president is not religious.

You need to seek counsel from your local Baptist minister and get your life right!

I do respect each opinion, but race do matter (just look at
the comments that don't believe in Obama), and it will always
matter until people get over racism. Myself, I believe in Obama,
due to the fact that the Brother is smart, and he can't be
compare nowhere near Jessie or Al. He is way ahead of them two
has beens.

I believe that If Obama was elected he would have a strong staff
to consult, and I do believe that his staff will be made up of a
group of pros that's deeply involved in politics. The only problem
would be getting white votes, and from the tone of some of the
posts you all is saying because he's light he almost pass for white.

Senator Obama can get my vote anytime, due to the fact that the
Brother is young in politics, and to create a new style of Gov't.
Old ideas is what keeping America today plus racism and propagenda.
I recall when I first joined this message board there was issues with
the Black Congressman of Minnesota(Oh What's his name)?, but he
won the seat in Washington, and this will be the same way in Obama's
case. So to me race should not matter, but to some of you it does,
and I say to those few...get over it.

I think you are TOTALLY misinterpreting the messages on this board - I think you need to get over it. I haven't read ANYBODY here saying that race matters to them - merely acknowledging that there are people to whom it does matter.

I also acknowledge that our prisons are full - does that mean that I'm a murderer?

They never thought there would be a Catholic President, or a black president... Some day reason will prevail. Mysticism can't rule for ever.

But this thread is about race...

80% of America seems high. Link?

I'd give it to you But this thread is about race...
