In an effort to show how "the man" is out to get the poor disadvantaged gentleman of color, I present a nonsensical poll for your amusement:
Evil Whitey still keeping down the black man (http://www.democraticunderground.com/10024141976)

I, for one, am shocked at these results. After decades of affirmative action, somehow blacks can't seem to get ahead. what gives?

2. Hellz yeah. It was easier to get out of a trailer park
...because I could work on my diction, change mannerisms, and scrounge up some decent clothes, and the interviewers couldn't easily tell I was lower-class. Because I'm white, it was easier to pass.
I don't think rigster ever actually left the trailer park

10. I am a white person who grew up with precious few disadvantages...
...and is ****ing grateful about that, because I know it was just dumb luck that I was born into a financially secure white family in the United States.
Most of my problems are so "first world" I feel guilty even whining about them (when I pull my head out of my ass and look at the big picture).
Obligatory white guilt here. Clutch that purse a little tighter in the elevator next time.

12. If Barack Obama had been born white, would he have still become president?
Who knows?
Okay, which one of you is playing in this campfire?

14. Are you implying that he was aided by his skin color?
If not, what are you implying? That it didn't matter?
gosh, you think? It wouldn't explain the black vote at all, nope...

Whah whah whah ****ing whah. Indians, Chinese, Koreans, El Salvadoreans, Mexicans, hell, actual Africans immigrate here all the times and in one generation turn themselves around and become successes. If you can't make it in the U.S. it's you're own ****ing fault. Stop listening to stupid ass white liberals, who ONLY view your worth in terms of a vote, who tell you you can't make it because some cracka is keeping you down. :sosad:

not only was he aided by his skin color, he uses it as a shield on a daily basis to deflect criticism of his countless ****ups, and you DUmmies play right along with it.

rodeowebuma is not authentic American black. He did not share the struggles of the authentic American blacks in his rise to power. Many authentic American blacks resent this. But what can they do about it is the question.

I'm so ashamed of my white self...and white privilege...we had a wood heater and an outhouse. None of that fireplace and shitting in high cotton for us, no sir, privileged all the way. :-)

When you swept your dirt floor, how did you know you were finished ? Now that is true oppression.

Hey, I said we were privileged....the chickens stayed under the house and we kept count by the cracks in the floor.

He would not have had a chance in hell if he had not been black. He had ZERO experience and/or qualifications. For the DUmmies to pretend otherwise is ridiculous. Frankly, it burns my butt for them to still pretend the man deserved the presidency.
We are STILL paying for Carter. How long will we pay for 0bama? I assume I will be long dead and gone before we recover from these eight years.

I dislike his white half too.
Actually, I just detest his politics.
Had Obummer run on his white half, he would lost to my pet squirrel. (Which has the same qualifications)
