Why is it that if a person doesn't vote for B Obama they are a racist? I know several individuals that are "pretending" to vote for Obama because they can't stand the personal attacks on their character, the vandalism of their property or the general air that they are stupid for having a difference of opinion. Obama supporters are vocal and bully the weak for support. I have never seen an election ticket whose followers are so willing to attack people of opposing views. Obama supporters have a right to be proud of their candidate, but they don't have the right to spread slanderous lies that those who disagree are racist or ignorant.
I personally am not voting for Obama because HE does not support cutting (or halting) government spending. The government bloat and the poor politics of Barney Frank and Countrywide got us in the current mess. Obama's ideas have no chance of getting us out.
Nothing about Barrack Obama's policies are racist and nothing about my decision not to vote for him is based on race.
