show me the video of Obama saying God Damn America. Or overtly agreeing with that statement and I'll give a damn.

I don't wear a flag pin on my suit.

I have great Pride in what this country COULD be.

I get pissed off when any black person says you owe me for what was done to my people in the past. But there's still a lot of discrimination in this country and EVERYONE should be pissed off about that.

The illegals are going to be a bitch to deal with no matter who's in office.

I can't believe people are so surprised at this Minister's racist sermons. He's a perfect example of what I've been saying for a long time. Many of the older folks still carry a hatred for people of another color. Thats why I've said the time isn't right for a female or black president. Of course with McCain as the only option, I could be wrong.

We've set back for so long wearing our rose colored glass, content that because we have laws, race is no longer an issue for most. But every now and then we get a wakeup call from people like this. Racism is alive and well all over the world. We've done noting to address the real problem and with people living longer, that problem hasn't died off as soon as expected.

We're are seeing it rise again here in dodge because people refuse to address reality. As Wordy says, everybody is a little racist, or they're a lier. Seeing dodge go down hill makes it much easier as well.

Here is his stance on the border and illegals from his website.

Barack Obama's Plan
Create Secure Borders

Obama wants to preserve the integrity of our borders. He supports additional personnel, infrastructure and technology on the border and at our ports of entry.



Improve Our Immigration System

Obama believes we must fix the dysfunctional immigration bureaucracy and increase the number of legal immigrants to keep families together and meet the demand for jobs that employers cannot fill.


Remove Incentives to Enter Illegally

Obama will remove incentives to enter the country illegally by cracking down on employers who hire undocumented immigrants.



Bring People Out of the Shadows

Obama supports a system that allows undocumented immigrants who are in good standing to pay a fine, learn English, and go to the back of the line for the opportunity to become citizens.


Work with Mexico

Obama believes we need to do more to promote economic development in Mexico to decrease illegal immigration.
Not my ideal, but something that I can live with. Secure the borders and remove the incentives to enter illegally.

What is the problem with his stance on the border and illegals?

Obama going down?

Quote:
McCain has gained ground against both Democrats in recent days as stories about Obama’s former Pastor, Jeremiah Wright, have been widely discussed(see recent daily results). Wright is viewed favorably by just 8% of American voters and 73% consider his comments racially divisive.

The dialogue about Wright’s controversial comments appears to have had at least a short-term impact on public perceptions of Barack Obama. The Illinois Senator is viewed favorably today by just 47% of voters nationwide. That’s down five points since last Thursday (see recent daily results). The number with an unfavorable view of Obama has risen from 44% on Thursday to 50% today. Among White voters, Obama is now viewed favorably by 43% and unfavorably by 54%.

Looked at from a slightly longer perspective, Obama’s overall favorable ratings peaked at 56% on February 21, shortly after he won the Wisconsin Primary. At that point, Clinton began raising questions about Obama as part of the campaign that ultimately enabled her to win the Texas and Ohio Primaries. Since then, Obama’s net favorability ratings have fallen seventeen points (from plus 14 points on February 21 to minus 3 points today).
