Well congratulations to all of you who wanted Obama to be the president.  I'm sure a lot of people are happy today.  This should prove to be interesting for sure.

you know, you'd think people would've started researching stuff after they loved electing george bush, he fucked up and all of the sudden everybody wished they could unvote.  but no, the laziness/ignorance continued and they just flip flopped to the mainstream party they thought was the opposite from, but couldn't be much closer to, the bush administration.  this is definitely gonna be interesting, so much more regulation is gonna need to be fixed after he's out.  i'm uneasy to say the least.
Yeah , you would think people would have learned from Bush being elected.  How easy it is for politicians to fool the people.  Especially when one is spending hundreds of millions of dollars on a campaign.  but nope.  The most that 90% of these people know about Obama is "hope" and "change"  like pre programed drones.

so, who thinks Obama will live long enough to actually make any changes? or will he even live long enough to even enter the white house?
pray nightfall release me
then i could wander, wander to deep sleep

i guess all we can do is just hope people learn this time, but after this bush thing, i really have my doubts.  they really have it good in the two party system, someone in one camp fucks up, and it's OBVIOUSLY the other major one that's gonna change things, even though they undoubtedly had a hand in the cause of the problem.

if he were assassinated, i dont think there will be riots (unless it was found to be a white conspiracy). actually, as much as i hate to say it, his death would probably bring people together in a way not seen before

+1    If ... and I stress IF he was killed, you could almost bet it would be a racist redneck... and then it would spawn racial tension like never before.   Fuck worrying about wars overseas.  We could end up having one right here at home.

I think you're way over exaggerating that scenario. 

1st off.  I believe Obama will live to see his full term.  If he is elected again.  I believe he will live to see a 2nd term.  The secret service is pretty dam good at what they do these days.  If he was successfully assassinated.  It would be above the level of a "redneck" with a hunting rifle. 

2nd.  You are all forgetting that white people are still the Majority in America.  White America voted in a Black President.  That speaks way louder than the actions of one man or a small group with an assassination plot.  Spread that message around a bit instead of all this talk about him not making it.

3.  Riots would for sure happen.  But nothing like a civil war.  People would just be really really upset.  But Josh is right when he says that the country would come together.  More than just the black community would feel the loss.  So when everyone stands angry and weeping hand in hand, people would probably get a very clear demonstration as to why we are "these states united"  Obama is our president ( or will be soon ) Everyone should respect that and only wish the best for him and our country.  If something happened to him, we should all be outraged and sad as one.  Trying to draw a line at ethnic divides would be so......fucking horrible.  I really hope we are past that.

4.  Quit fucking stereotyping every white person from a small town who dips tobacco and likes to hunt as racist rednecks.  You fucking racist ass holes.

The last thing I am is racist, Trey.   Whether you want to admit it or not, there are some serious redneck RACIST assholes out there who do NOT want a black president.    There are also Arians.   We can just close our eyes and say it won't ever happen.... but sadly enough it most certainly could.


You are correct tho in saying that IF it ever happened it would be .... beyond horrible.    I love Obama.  He is a glimmer of hope...   I don't care for your arguement on it.   I am allowed to have my feelings on it.    I seriously hope you are correct that we will see him through his terms.... and I also seriously hope my gut feeling is right... that he will bring about a good change to our country.

Give me a break.  It's not a bad thing to have HOPE.    It's about time our nation felt something together.   I loved seeing everyone gather in Grant Park as ONE.
