Obama's Election Triggering a Rise in Racial Hatred

The election of Obama the Immaculate is spurring a rise in racial hatred across the country. Now, before you fly off the handle, I do not think Obama is purposely causing this, and I do not think he wants it to happen. However, it is happening ....

This country is divided more than it has been at anytime since the Civil War. The Far Left has declared war on anyone that does not follow their politics. The Far Right defends itself, and is called racist, elitist, and worse for doing so. More and more people are moving out of the middle and towards the opposite poles. Racial relations, particularly between whites and blacks, are being pushed to a higher intensity as a reaction to Obama's heritage.

Two things triggered me to write this today. First, breakfast. I was in a popular local cafe, a place where many folks gather to visit and start their day. A large group of fellows seated around a table near me were voicing their concerns over Obama and what he is doing. The hatred I heard in their speech was scary - beyond political disagreement by far.

Second, the Dallas NAACP held a press conference yesterday, where their president, a shrill woman named Juanita Wallace, complained to anyone who listened that the KKK was running a membership drive in a small local town, and this was evidence of 'grass roots hate'. Surrounding this woman were members of the New Black Panthers. Now if that isn't the pot calling the kettle black, so to speak ....

I think this explosion of hatred and racial posturing is an occurence that was inevitable to coincide with the election of the first black President, whoever that person turned out to be. With all the bad racial history this country has, I think that this outpouring of racial bias and hatred is part of the process of getting to the point where the color of skin is not that important when electing officials. The election of Obama is not the action that puts the United States over the racial hump - it is an important action that will move us further along that path. The next minority elected to that position will be far more likely to be elected and judged based upon their qualifications than the color of their skin. Rosa Parks sitting in the front of the bus didn't end racism - it was a step. Obama's election isn't ending racism - it is a step. Each step gets us further along, even if the step is painful.

The fact that Obama is a hard core leftist has ramped up the situation, adding dislike and hatred of his policies to the racial component. This is making the wound wider, more painful, and it will take longer to heal.

Personally, I don't care whether the President's skin is white, black, brown, purple, green, or pink with yellow polkadots - I care about their qualifications, their experience, and their policies. THAT is why I don't like Obama and want him out of office - not because he's half black.

Eventually, the United States will be better off racially for Obama having been in office. Now, how much of the United States is left to benefit from it after he gets through socializing our country remains to be seen. I think we'd have been much better off with the first minority President being Condi Rice, or maybe even Colin Powell (although they aren't 'authentically black' according to race hucksters like Jackson and Sharpton).

And one more thing .... to all those people who voted for Obama just because he is black (or half-black) - you are just as racist, just as bigoted as those who voted against him because he is black.
