It's all about race

Posted by "Pat Buchanan, Jr." on October 19, 2008 at 04:12 PM

While Whites of this country are told not to talk about race, that race isn’t important, that you shouldn’t base any belief, hiring decision, or prejudice when it comes to race, we see yet another prominent Black American backing Obama at the voting booth over his own beliefs and poltical affiliation. And not just any Black American, one who served two Republican Presidents, inclulding the current one. That being Colin Powell. Today Former Secretary of State Colin Powell endorsed Senator Barack Obama, but says it wasn’t based on race. Earlier this year, Conservative talk show host Armstrong Willams and former US Republican House Leader JC Watts have also made statements that they would prefer Obama over McCain. But again, it’s not about race, well, at least according to their public statements. At least JC Watts had the guts to admit his recent thhoughts on who to vote for in this election are actually about race.

It’s a pretty sad day in America when gender and race preclude any form of common sense when choosing the next President of the United States. I guess the actions and statements of these leaders tells us that it’s ok to base your vote on race alone…well, maybe only if you’re a non-white American.
