Where race comes into play is in who Obama chose to associate with for some 20 odd years in Chicago. Black and White, they aren't the people most voters want their potential president hanging out with. This wasn't wild youth but the most recent work this man has done. Black Liberation Theology is very leftist and related to Liberation Theology which has inspired communist insurgencies in Latin America. The Pope has excommunicated priests who peddle the theology. It uses truth with spin and dubious conclusions. Obama has little background with work so his education level is the biggest selling point. His penchant for leftists in the extreme sense is a good indication of his true feelings and beliefs. I am a liberal democrat but will not go that far left and find it just as distasteful as the right. So I am out of the election and out of choices. This is the first election I will not participate in but I can't pull the lever for candidates I don't want to be president and I'm not going to help them.
