Obama is the great hype machine

[asragov]

Like him or not, this was a pretty compelling speech.

It is not only hype- there is some substance here:

I honestly don’t think that this country is ready for a black man to be president. If you live in areas like SD, LA, SF, NY, etc. sure there seem to be a lot of people who are not racist or chauvinist, but the people who always turn up to vote the most are in the southern states. They are more into politics than the “whatever dude, whoever is president doesn’t matter” crowds in cities like SD.

If you’ve been in the south lately, you’ll know what I mean. I don’t even think this country is ready for a woman to be president, but IMO she’d stand a better chance than a black man.

This fact scares me to think that we’ll end up getting whoever else is left once you’ve eliminated the impossible. If we end up with another born-again, evangelical, or other superstitious president it will make the GW Bush years look like an era of enlightenment and truth.

The guy is an empty suit who spouts left wing bromides. I don’t know about Boomers, but people younger than that would be less likely to vote for a black man out of guilt. To me, his race is irrelevant. He’s not Hillary Clinton and that’s enough for most people. Racially obsessed Marxist journalists try to read too much into RACE, GENDER, CLASS.

He’s a better version of Jimmy Carter. That’s why I’m voting for him in November of 2008. Just what this country deserves.
