Why as an African American, I am not voting for Obama...

The first thingI always get from other African Americans when they find out why I am not voting for Obama is I am not proud of my heritage or I am trying to bring down another black man which is not true at all.

LikeI tell them, Obama has very different personal and political beliefs than I do. He is very liberal and I am not. If you look at his [Obama's] background, he has been backed by a very large socialist organization, the DSA[democratic socialization of America], his mentor and father figure Frank Marshall Davis who he talks about in his book.

[dreams of my father] is a known communist, he [Obama], has openly campaigned for Bernnie Sanders another politician with a socialist agenda. His pastor and spiritual adviser for over 20 years Jerimiah Wright makes anti-American statements,and he [wright] also endorses Farrakhan, a known racist and says he is a great American.

And then you have this connection between Obama and William Ayers a domestic terrorist who bombs our nations capital, pentagon,and a police station killing a police officer and injuring others, and whenI look at his voting record it's horrible, especially his stance on gun control.

I always ask these Obama supporters what significant changes did Obama make while in the IL senate or in the us senate? They can't answer it. But whatI do know is where he came from.

He was produce by the democratic machine in chicago who has given the people of IL the most corrupt state in the nation with highest sales tax and gas in the nation and a horrible housing market.

In my opinion obama is nothing more than a Marxist with a socialistic agenda with a false love for the US and i will not sacrifice my beliefs for him or anyone who thinks like him.

Please, please format that post. Trying to read it made my eyes bleed :shock:


I was disappointed, though. I read the thread title, and expected a well-thought-out piece that related how Obama has alienated black voters, specifically through his anti-gun record (since this is an OC forum, not an anti-Obama forum). Instead it is a compilation of the same old anti-Obama lines, plus tenuous accusations that, even if you would have cited them, do not clearly relate back to the thread title, which is presumably the point you are trying to make. :(

Try again, please?

OK then..... now after being able to read it I have discovered it is not reallyOC related.

Thread will be closed.
