The right wing conservatives in the Republican camp are up in arms at the likelihood of McCain being the Republican candidate for the next US president, due to his ' liberal ' views.

At the same time there is an even chance of Obama making the candidacy for the Democrats - allowing the possibility of him being the 'next leader of the free world'.

Given the verkramptness of the religious right, ultra conservatives, the proliferation of white power neo-nazi groups, the psychos and plain fruitcakes, are they likely to accept the most powerful man in the world being black ?

Just how long before Obama sees his grassy knoll ?

Footnote:
I don't even want to contemplate the fallout following the assasination of a black president by a white hate group.
 
I disagree with the word "proliferation" in regards to neo-nazi groups.
Yeah, they exist - but not to the levels implied by "proliferation".

Footnote: I would have no problem voting for him if his views matched mine (I do not follow US politics, so have no idea what his views are)
 
A woman or a Afro American will be a great step forward for the country.
 
I dunno are they enough leftwing lunatics in the U.S to vote for Barack E Obama

Also where are these all powerful 'right wing christian fundamentalists'. If they voted Dubya into power why is McCain leading the Rep nomination?

OMW what the load of BS :eek:

What does a person's gender or race got to do with one's ability to take a country forward?

*sigh*

I thought people had moved past obsessing with race and gender FFS

i verry highly doubt he is muslim, but his middle name is Hussain, which is kinda ironic, i would not be surprised why people are a bit suspicious of that, can't blame them too much.

oh, and Obama is not black, he is white!!!

He actually belongs to a dodgy race obessed church. Ironic since his supporters here complain so bitterly about Huckerbee :o

McCain has benefited from the Romney/Huckabee tussle.

Why would they vote for Romney?

Same reason they voted for Bush I guess. He's anti anything liberal, is in favour of destroying the ecology for gain, pro-life, pro-death, anti-gay, pro-war, and because a lot of Americans are simply stupid.

I'd vote for barack obama. He's just what the world needs, someone who's not so cynical. He may be a little naive but that may be a good thing. Anyway, even Jacob Zuma as US president would be an upgrade after George W. Bush

Because there are people (especially a few here, such as the above poster) that believe black people are incapable of running things.

I'm sure some of them also believe a woman's place is in the kitchen.

Quite simple really.

Pretty much the same thing except he's not a Mormon.

Which is a hinderance for him because Huckabee is a baptist. Mormons are not popular amongst evangelicals so why are they voting for him instead of Huckabee?
