  1. Voting up only for how pathetic these people are.

  2. "I really want to vote for someone who's from here"
    "But he is from here, he was born and raised here."
    "But he's Muslim."
    "Why do you think he's Muslim?"
    "I don't know ... I just don't agree with that."

    Yikes! The basic sentiment seems to be that these people can't get behind Obama because they don't think he's an American. Well, I can no longer say the propaganda machine is losing it's footing in modern day america.

    I can only hope there are enough educated people to vote in the election. Whoever you vote for, it should be based on what kind of president they'd be, and not some other junk.

    exact same reason...I just can't understand how those people can live their everyday life with that fear of the stranger, it must be really awful for them.
    And best part is : he's not American (another WAW!), that was just funny :-(

  5. This is a survival mechanism - stick to those who are like you, reject those who are not...

    I feel like heading into this area and beating some racist fuckers to death. I am so filled with anger I can't put it into words. People believe what they want to believe. If they hear that Obama is Muslim, then they want to believe it, as it gives them a more credible reason to hate him than coming right out and saying their real objection: that he's black.

  7. Disgusting.

    BTW, being from North Carolina (where we trounced Hillary), I can telll you the reason these ignorant white supremacists say they are democrats is because for many, many decades after the Civil War, a majority of Southerners referred to themselves as "Yellow Dog Democrats". The saying was: "I'd sooner vote for a yellow dog than a Republican". That mindset derived from the fact that Abraham Lincoln was a Republican and that he ordered General Sherman to burn practically all the major Southern cities to the ground. Republicans as a result were very unpopular for a very long time.

    In the more enlightened Southern cities, there are indeed plenty of progressive liberal Democrats however and I wouldn't worry about the trailer trash we say in this video; they'll forget to vote anyway.

  9. About a month before the TX primary a lot of people I know started getting those emails saying Obama was Muslim and all that trash. The saddest part was that some of these folks actually took these "facts" of mysterious origin to heart. It was sickening. Some of those people are otherwise fairly intelligent, but they couldn't separate an obvious smear campaign from verifiable fact. Based on that I changed my opinions on those acquaintances...
