If you said it then you meant it how you want it head or gut? And all you other politicians trying to hate on my man, watch us win majority vote in every state on my man You can't stop what's bout to happen, we bout to make history The first black president is destined and it's meant to be The threats ain't fazing us, the nooses or the jokes So get off your ass, black people, it's time to get out and vote! Paint the White House black and I'm sure that's got 'em terrified McCain don't belong in any chair unless he's paralyzed Yeah I said it cause Bush is mentally handicapped Ball up all of his speeches and just throw 'em like candy wrap 'cause what you talking I hear nothing even relevant and you the worst of all 43 presidents Get out and vote or the end'll be near The world is ready for change because Obama is here 'cause Obama is here The world is ready for change because Obama is here, yeah cuz Obama is here Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mattp Posted August 2, 2008 Share Posted August 2, 2008 Are you ignoring the obvious again, Fairweather? We've seen a lot more about how Obama is muslim and swore in on the Koran and his wife is not proud of white America than we have about how he's being mistreated on account of his skin color. Clearly, it is those who favor McCain who have been playing the race card the most aggressively. Right, but Obama was the one who said he was going to be "post-racial" (whatever the fuck that is) and NOT bring race into the race. Yet, he has repeatedly over recent days. Yes, the idea that he could be "post racial" is rather hard to define but McCain's "common sense conservatism" is no better, and we actually DO know what they mean by these phrases - in a general if not specific way. Prole and KK have it right about how complaining that he is "pulling the race card" is mostly just a code phrase that means: "lets not have whatever discussion is timely." This week, McCain's whining about how Obama's playing the race card was really nothing but a dodge with a bit of negative attack add mixed in: he could easily have addressed the question of whether or not he or his supporters have in fact tried to portray Obama as a muslim or as "different" from mainstream America. That, of course, would not have been to McCain's advantage so he chose to play the "anti race card" instead. Obama's proclamation that he is "post racial" may or may not not stem from any great idealism but wouldn't you admit that his campaign has stayed well away from any Jesse Jackson type rhetoric and he's done a remarkable job of minimizing the extent to which he becomes the "black candidate?" This is certainly a lot more meaningful than Bush's "compassionate conservatism" ever was and in my mind a more compelling stance than McCain's complaints that "we've tried racial quotas and preferential treatment is bad for all Americans." Obama's position (or at least his posture) with respect to racial politics in America is refreshing. McCain's? He's simply recycling campaign slogans that have been used since the Reagan years.
