Steve Sailer, VDARE.com, April 13, 2008

Where does Barack Obama really stand on racial issues? Is he the post-racial bipartisan conciliator of his campaign image, or is he the black racial activist depicted in his autobiography?

On this issue, for once, Obama’s stance is quite clear.

Acolytes in the Obama Cult are taught that, when proselytizing over the phone for new converts, they should not answer direct questions about what Obama stands for, other than “hope” and “change,” but instead should tell the inquirer to go look up the candidate’s policy positions on BarackObama.com.

So let’s look carefully at Obama’s “Civil Rights” webpage.

(In case you are wondering, all three surviving candidates’ websites have an “Issues” page, but only Obama’s has a “Civil Rights” subpage. In contrast, on Hillary’s website, one of the Issues sections is entitled A Champion for Women,” but none of the “issues” she chooses to feature is specifically devoted to race. And McCain’s website doesn’t give civil rights prominent play.)

Obama’s Civil Rights page also links to a more explicit Plan handed out by Obama’s team when the Senator spoke at black Howard University in 2007.

Here are excerpts (in italics) from these two civil rights documents on the official Obama website:

“Barack Obama’s Record

“Record of Advocacy: Obama has worked to promote civil rights and fairness in the criminal justice system throughout his career. As a community organizer, Obama helped 150,000 African Americans register to vote.

Notice that the document doesn’t say 150,000 American citizens.” It says, 150,000 African Americans.” That’s not a typo or an oversight. Obama got into the voter registration business not out of some general commitment to democracy but to boost the political muscle of blacks.

“As a civil rights lawyer, Obama litigated employment discrimination, housing discrimination, and voting rights cases.”

Obama likes to brag that, as president of the Harvard Law Review, he could have taken any high paying legal job in the country, but that he chose a lower paying job as a civil rights lawyer.

Swell. But keep in mind that the more the Obama Administration tries to carry out Obama’s personal passion for crushing residual examples of discrimination against blacks, the more false positive errors it will make and unjustly accuse whites.

In statistics, that’s called the Type I Error vs. Type II Error tradeoff.

As I wrote in VDARE in 2003, the unfortunate reality is that racial quotas are the inevitable by-products of our anti-discrimination laws. These laws place the burden of proof on the employer to justify any deviation from equal outcomes in hiring and promotions. Lawsuits can be won. But the cost can be so crushing that most firms will do just about anything to stay out of court. So they use quotas.

Lots of pundits don’t understand this logic. But Obama is a very smart guy. He gets it. That he chose to sacrifice income in order to, in effect, push for more quotas for legally protected minorities is not something that I, as a legally non-protected non-minority, find reassuring.

“As a State Senator, Obama passed one of the country’s first racial profiling laws.”

He cracked down on the police using racial profiling—great! As I wrote in VDARE.COM in 2003, despite the War On Crime, there are still roughly five 9-11’s worth of Americans murdered each year. And that could easily go back up if the cops are constrained.

Simply put, the police can use either of two alternative strategies:

*  They can sit around eating donuts and wait for bad guys to commit crimes.

*  Or they can get in the face of potential bad guys and prevent crimes.

To do the latter, though, they have to use the brains God gave them to figure out who is more likely to cause trouble.

And that’s when they get blamed for profiling.

Obama’s website goes on:

”. . . and helped reform a broken death penalty system.”

To give credit where it’s due: Obama’s leadership on getting police interrogations in Illinois videotaped was an excellent piece of good government work to clean up a horrific situation where cops were torturing suspects.

On the other hand, would Obama have invested so much effort in this worthy reform if it didn’t primarily benefit blacks?

For example, has he crusaded to cut down on prison rape? I can’t find evidence on Google of him paying much attention to the issue.

At first glance, prison rape might seem like a violation of civil rights. Yet you’re forgetting that the words “civil rights” are used solely in a “Who? Whom?” sense these days. If whites are violating the rights of blacks, that is a civil rights issue. If blacks are violating (literally) whites, as typically happens in cases of prison rape, well, that’s not a civil rights issue. That’s just something the cool cops on TV shows make jokes about when arresting the Great White Defendant.

“And in the U.S. Senate, Obama has been a leading advocate for protecting the right to vote, helping to reauthorize the Voting Rights Act and leading the opposition against discriminatory barriers to voting.”

The “discriminatory barriers to voting” that Obama’s against are photo-ID laws that would keep urban political machines (like, oh, say, Mayor Daley’s Cook County machine that helped him win big in this year’s Illinois primary) from cheating and

I believe that the original 1965 Voting Rights Act was necessary and hugely successful. But subsequent reauthorizations have featured a cynical bargain between Republicans and minority politicians to corral black and Hispanic voters in gerrymandered “majority-minority” districts. This guarantees black and Hispanic politicians a lot of seats in state legislatures and the House of Representatives. But it’s also a major reason why blacks more authentically African American than the preppie from paradise have had so much trouble moving up to statewide office. They have to start their careers out as “race men” to get elected. But unlike the preternaturally politically gifted Obama, however, most of them aren’t talented enough to backtrack rhetorically later and win the votes of whites in races for Senator or President.

Let’s read through the rest of Obama’s “Civil Rights” policy platform:

“The Problem

“Pay Inequity Continues: For every $1.00 earned by a man, the average woman receives only 77 cents, while African American women only get 67 cents and Latinas receive only 57 cents.”

Is this a civil rights problem or a human capital problem? That sounds academic, but the distinction is crucial. Calling it a civil rights inequity automatically suggests a particular solution: even more quotas.

“Hate Crimes on the Rise: The number of hate crimes increased nearly 8 percent to 7,700 incidents in 2006.”

Obama’s speech deploring the prosecution of the six black football players in Jena, LA who stomped a white youth unconscious suggests that the candidate has an awfully Who? Whom? view of what comprises a hate crime. Obama orated:

“Fifty years after the events in Little Rock, we have the recent events in Jena, Louisiana—with nooses hanging on a tree in a schoolyard and the overcharging of African American teens for a schoolyard fight.”

In reality, it’s unlikely that the September noose incident had anything to do with the December six-on-one stomping, but if Obama is right that the black star athletes’ assault was racially motivated, then the blacks should have also been charged with a hate crime.

“Efforts Continue to Suppress the Vote: A recent study discovered numerous organized efforts to intimidate, mislead and suppress minority voters.”

More of the black leftist paranoia you’d expect from a follower of Rev. Dr. Jeremiah A. Wright, Jr.

The biggest problem black voters face, as shown by Florida in 2000, is that they tend to botch up their ballots more often than other groups—because they have weaker average ability to follow directions. If Florida blacks had managed to fill out their ballots in a usable fashion at the same rate as Florida whites, Al Gore would have become President. But black incompetence is not a civil rights issue, it’s a human capital issue. Incompetence also affects lots of people, like all the elderly Jews in Florida who accidentally voted for Pat Buchanan.

This could be turned into a nonracial good government issue by a call for the use of voting machines with error checking technology. But Obama would never admit that black voters, on average, have a harder time following simple instructions. It’s so much easier to call it a civil rights issue.

“Disparities Continue to Plague Criminal Justice System: African Americans and Hispanics are more than twice as likely as whites to be searched, arrested, or subdued with force when stopped by police. Disparities in drug sentencing laws, like the differential treatment of crack as opposed to powder cocaine, are unfair.”

Which shows African Americans and Hispanics aren’t being stopped enough.

Think about it for a moment. If Non-Asian Minorities (NAMs) were being arrested per stop only half as much as whites, that would show NAMs were being stopped too much, and thus were victims of unfair racial profiling. But, instead, the opposite is happening. Simple logic shows that cops should be stopping them more and stopping whites less. Then the stop/arrest ratio would be the same. (It’s like the mortgage default rate scam—which is now a factor in the subprime mortgage mess.)

Of course, Obama is proud to have passed a law to make this worse.

“Barack Obama’s Plan

“Strengthen Civil Rights Enforcement

“Obama will reverse the politicization that has occurred in the Bush Administration’s Department of Justice. He will put an end to the ideological litmus tests used to fill positions within the Civil Rights Division.”

Bottom line: More quotas, ahoy!

Obama’s Howard U. Fact Sheet is much franker about Obama’s concern that blacks haven’t been getting enough lawyer jobs in the Justice Department:

“Moreover, the House Judiciary Committee, under Congressman John Conyers’s lead, has been investigating allegations that the Criminal Section has failed to hire a single African American attorney since 2003 to replace those who have left – leaving this important Section with only 2 African American lawyers out of fifty.”

More jobs for the boys!

“Combat Employment Discrimination

“Obama will work to overturn the Supreme Court’srecent ruling that curtails racial minorities’ and women’s ability to challenge pay discrimination. Obama will also pass the Fair Pay Act to ensure that women receive equal pay for equal work.”

Even more quotas, ahoy!

By the way, in 2006 the Illinois Senator went out of his way to record a radio ad opposing Ward Connerly’s Michigan initiative outlawing racial preferences in state government. But Connerly triumphed over Obama 58 percent to 42 percent.

“Expand Hate Crimes Statutes

“Obama will strengthen federal hate crimes legislation and reinvigorate enforcement at the Department of Justice’s Criminal Section.”

That’s pretty scary-sounding. (To Obama’s credit, however, he once didquietly send a letter to a constituent saying he approved of an independent inquiry into the notorious prosecutor Mike Nifong in the Duke Lacrosse hoax case. Granted, he was a year behind VDARE.com, but by the very low standards to which Presidential candidates are held, that’s not bad.)

“End Deceptive Voting Practices

“Obama will sign into law his legislation that establishes harsh penalties for those who have engaged in voter fraud and provides voters who have been misinformed with accurate and full information so they can vote.”

Hmmm. Do you think Obama’s Justice Department will go after voter fraud in Obama’s own Cook County?

Do you think he’ll crack down on illegal immigrants voting?

Do you think he’s really going to go after all the black ministers who take walking around moneyfrom political parties? By the way, did you notice that Obama’s Rev. Wright is moving to a 10,000 square foot mansion on a golf course in a gated community in a 93% white suburb? Do you think President Obama will have the Justice Dept. look into his own church’s finances?

“End Racial Profiling

“Obama will ban racial profiling by federal law enforcement agencies and provide federal incentives to state and local police departments to prohibit the practice.”

More 9/11s, ahoy!

George W. Bush’s fight against profiling Arabs by airport security contributed to the climate in which Mohammed Atta and his 19 friends freely boarded four jetliners. Do you think Barack Hussein Obama is going to do anything to make us safer from people with, say, Muslim middle names?

“Reduce Crime Recidivism by Providing Ex-Offender Support

“Obama will provide job training, substance abuse and mental health counseling to ex-offenders, so that they are successfully re-integrated into society. Obama will also create a prison-to-work incentive program to improve ex-offender employment and job retention rates.”

Not necessarily a bad idea, but mostly a state duty. Ron Paul would say it’s time for the Feds to get out of the way of states experimenting with criminal justice systems.

Anyway, there are already lots and lots of programs for ex-cons. Unless Obama has identified a few that actually work, this is just a call for more money for his social worker constituency.

“Eliminate Sentencing Disparities

“Obama believes the disparity between sentencing crack and powder-based cocaine is wrong and should be completely eliminated.”

Perhaps a good idea, but calling it a civil rights issue just shows Obama’s racial tendentiousness. Keep in mind that the increased penalties for crack were demanded in the 1980s primarily by black leaders such as Rev. Jesse Jackson and Rep. Charlie Rangel. Back then, crack was cool and was sweeping across the black community, with disastrous effect. Today, everybody knows it’s the devil’s own drug, so it’s less of a threat.

Also, it’s a myth that large numbers of NAMs are being sentenced to prison who are mere drug users. In truth, as Sam Quinones pointed out in the LA Timesrecently, [A familial mean street, March 30, 2008] it’s hard to convict gang-affiliated crack dealers of trafficking in drugs or perpetrating violence because their gangs threaten witnesses with death. So, they often get put away on drug possession charges, because those require only physical evidence.

Anyway, this is another example of where federalization, such as determining the length of prison sentences, which was reserved in the Constitution for the states, just gets in the way of good government. If drug sentencing had been allowed to remain a state prerogative, then supporters of change could point to how, say, Idaho, had reduced sentencing for crack down to the same level as powder cocaine with good results. But, since this law was passed at the federal level, experimentation can only take place at the all or nothing federal level, which, reasonably enough, makes people wary of experimenting with laws that, at great cost, have helped reduce the crime rate.

A better approach would be for the federal government to pass a law allowing state governments to vote to change the law in their state. But that would be . . . States Rights, which, by definition, is evil.

“Expand Use of Drug Courts

“Obama will give first-time, non-violent offenders a chance to serve their sentence, where appropriate, in the type of drug rehabilitation programs that have proven to work better than a prison term in changing bad behavior.”

Once again, from a non-racialist’s perspective, shouldn’t this be a state criminal justice issue, not a federal civil rights issue?

“Restore Professionalism to the Civil Rights Division: Barack Obama will reverse the politicization that has occurred in the Bush Administration’s DOJ. He will put an end to the ideological litmus tests used to fill nonpolitical positions within the Division and ensure that the nation’s civil rights lawyers are just that—civil rights lawyers.”

In other words, Obama will banish anybody who has any principled doubts about racial preferences and put the Department of Justice firmly back in the hands of people who make their living off quotas.

And then there’s this doozy:

“Fight Pay Discrimination

“Obama is also a cosponsor of Senator Tom Harkin’s (D-IA) Fair Pay Act. As president, Obama will support legislation to promote paycheck equity—the right of women to receive equal compensation to that provided comparably qualified men.”

In other words: comparable worth, which was such a incredibly stupid idea that it never passed even back in the Stupid Seventies when feminists dreamed it up. This doctrine says that the federal government should oversee the wages of everybody in private industry to make sure that mostly male occupations, such as truck driver, don’t get paid more than mostly female occupations, such as librarian. It’s basically equity-driven socialism.

Harvard economist Greg Mankiw, author of the best-selling economics textbook, blogged last year when he heard about what Harkin and Obama were up to:

“In the first edition of my favorite economics textbook, there was a section on comparable worth. Eventually, my editor suggested I take it out, on the grounds that economic logic had finally killed off this bad idea. But like Lord Voldemort in the first Harry Potter book the idea was weakened, but not dead.”

In short: The totality of Obama’s career since age 23 adds up to a man who has been in the business of taking from whites and giving to blacks.

Or at least that’s the impression he tried to give. How much benefit he actually did for blacks is another question altogether.

All that we can say with confidence is that Barack Obama’s career has been very, very good for Barack Obama.

But will it be good for America?

“Obama’s lifelong business: giving to blacks and taking from whites.”

He robs from the poor and gives to the rich.

You have to hand it to these liberals who support Obama. Their hypocricy affects them as little as water running off a ducks back. Obama has clearly and demonstrably been listening to racist messgages against whites for twenty years, and the liberals who forever remind others about racism, are gung ho to support him. What a bunch of phony creeps, who do not practice what they preach.

Posted by Bobby at 6:29 PM on April 14


I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again. Barack Obama, Michelle Obama and the good Rev. Wright are peas in a pod.

They all blame Whites for the failure of Blacks anywhere in the world. They are bitter about it and they think Blacks are owed by Whites.

The thing is, doesn’t helping stupid people interfere with evolution? Aren’t stupid people supposed to die off before procreating? How are Black people supposed to become more intelligent as a race if we keep helping the stupid ones?

Here is my suggestion that I left on his website where he ask people how to improve civil rights.:Voluntary racial segregation of the united states would assure the civil rights for everyone.Then no one can blame the other race for any racial disparities in employment,education and crime.As president what will you do about the epidemic of black on white rape. 37000 white women are raped by black men each year. Almost zero black women are raped by white men. Segregation would solve this problem.

Obama is just fighting for decency. He’s like the king of the racism detectors. Many of them make a career out of finding racism, and all of us pay homage to it. All day long, in their think tanks, their university offices, their government positions, and their company EEO offices, that’s all they get paid to think about, research, and discover. That’s all they do. All day long.

Good thing they are vigilant and on the job else Americans could find themselves subject to racism.

Steve Sailor’s very lengthy column, boiled down, shows Barack Obama to be a clever, oily, monumentally ambitious mountebank who has used racial grievances, real or imagined, to climb to power, and now like Icarus is flying closer and closer to the sun - or rather, the presidency.

But here’s hoping that fact-finding articles like Sailor’s, plus the screaming of the Rev. Wright and the condescending comments of Obama himself when he thought he wasn’t being recorded, will melt the wax from his fake wings and send him plunging back to earth. He really puts me in mind of the appalling Andy Griffith character Larry “Lonesome” Rhodes in 1957’s “A Face in the Crowd.” Rhodes rose very high, then plummeted, also. Hopefully one of these days we’ll be singing “Bye, Bye Obama!”

Obama is for blacks, hispanics, muslims, anyone but the whites….he hates us…make no mistake about that. We vote in the primary here in PA soon…..anyone who would even think of voting for that madman is too stupid to draw a breath…hes disgusting and evil….and HE IS A MUSLIM!!!

Posted by lydia at 8:06 PM on April 14


A vote FOR Obama is a vote AGAINST White Americans!

Any questions?

Posted by Fed Up at 8:23 PM on April 14


I read somewhere that 2/3 of the money spent on poor people actually goes to social workers, government clerks, and so on. If that’s true, there are a whole lot of Whites who are counting on BHO to keep their paychecks coming. Some White Obamists are going cultish, but I’d guess that most of the older ones smell money, the way that missile designers can smell the Pentagon budget when a Republican takes office.

Posted by Schoolteacher at 8:25 PM on April 14


Obama is a closet racist. Period. His dad was a wacko and so was his mother. I dare say that electing Obama will collapse the USA. It will expand racial hatred because white people already know we are getting oppressed by both the racist african haters and their white Bolshevik and Bushevik neo-racists (defined as a white person who sees black on white racism but is silent about it and even denies it). Obama will increase the oppression beyond the breaking point. Whites will march, blacks and the Bolsheviks and Busheviks will attempt to oppress the whites again and violence will erupt. Coupled with the illegal invasion and even the legal invasion of liberal immigration policies, massive debt, crime, and corruption, moves will be made by high level people to call for dialogue for peaceful national split. Just my prediction.

There is something really, really wrong with that man—the man some are calling the black Jesus—really, really wrong.

“When people tell me they’ve all stressed about racial discord, well, you know, try slavery for a while.” Barack Hussein Obama

Do some research on child labor in the US. Many, many poor white children were literally enslaved by the mining, textile, glass manufacturing and other industries. Heaven forbid we call this what it was—slavery of poor, white children.

I think a much clearer vision of Obama’s views on race are to be found in his own autobiography. Page after page is filled with racist paranoid fantasies and intense bigotry. More than anything else, his own words, written down and impossible to disavow, will do Obama in.

The hubris of the democratic party is just awe inspiring. They know that Americans will NEVER accept this far left liberal radicalism. So they tried to sneak in someone like this by blinding people with the novelty of a first black President. Too late, they are finding that far left liberals are crazy….crazy in a way that is impossible to hide from voters. Politically, Obama is unacceptable. But personally….he’s nothing less than a nazi….a black supremacist who espouses socialism. A uniquely black version of national socialism with the very same attitudes and beliefs as the originals. Including an alliance with radical islam.

The liberalism will cause him to lose. But that other stuff will shatter the credibility of the entire democratic party.

“But Obama would never admit that black voters, on average, have a harder time following simple instructions. It’s so much easier to call it a civil rights issue.”

Exactly. This man’s main agenda is in getting more power in order to push blacks into positions they’re not qualified for, even though he surely knows from experience they’re just not able to effectively compete in Western societies.

By constantly criticizing mainstream America, as he did recently, saying, in essence, working class whites have issues with those not like them (Meaning blacks, of course.) guns, religion and such, is just a small sample of the mindless theme he plans to constantly harp on if he’s elected.

This Condoleeza Rice even chimed in by saying that Anerica had a “birth defect” by not including blacks fresh from the jungles of Africa, as if blacks were competent and able the entire time they’ve been here.

Is somebody that’s high profile finally going to get the cojones to tell these whining, Wrights, Obamas, Rices’s, etc., that blacks haven’t been competent enough to succeed as all the other races have? And, since intelligence can’t be acquired or learned, please tell them to turn the debate around to concentrating on what kind of programs are necessary for blacks to keep them employed, without pretending that they’re qualified, which has turned this country in a chaotic situation where racial clashes occur more frequently than ever before.

Pretending they’re equal in intelligence to everyboidy else just frustrates them, making them whine and cry even more when they can’t come up to the average, and when they’re told the real reason for their failures is because of white oppression or racism, or laughably slavery 200 years ago, it increases their hatred and rage of whites. All this just so they won’t get their feelings hurt by telling the truth.

This Obama is typical of the average black leader and the average black. He is concerned mostly with trying to elevate blacks any way he can and to Hell with everything else.

We have two nations here: A black one and a white one. Blacks are fully aware of it, and nothing will change for them. It is only the pitiful whites on the left who live in LaLa land and can’t seem to grasp that.

Posted by Ranger at 9:37 PM on April 14


Get ready for President Obama folks! Seriously, get ready. He’s going to win the election, defeat John McCain and assist greatly in waking up White people to the realities at hand. Isn’t it worth it to have a half-Black president to discover the true realities of what life is going to be like in the future for the White minority? If he does get elected President, in four years we are going to see a great awakening in this country. Believe it, it is worth it. Actually, as contrary as it might seem at the moment, it will be a good thing for European-Americans.

Unfortunately when he gets elected, look for Blacks to become emboldened to commit a lot more crimes than they do now (if that’s possible) I recently, here in NYC was riding a subway train and a very overweight Black woman was leaning against me, so I tapped her with my umbrella ever so lightly, and she exploded with, “Don’t you touch me!” I’ll kick your a _ _ N _ _ _ _!” She called me the N-word —- and I’m White!! Then she said,
“I hate your race!” I haven’t gotten this sort of thing in a while - and Obama hasn’t been elected yet. Wait till he’s in the White House.

Posted by Awakened at 10:09 PM on April 14


If Obama becomes president and his policies become law, watch black “leaders” complain about those same policies as being “racist” 30 years from now. If police do give up racial profiling entirely, one result will be more black people getting murdered - since the majority of the victims of black crime are other blacks. The advice for whites is, as always, stay away from black areas if you value your safety.

Steve Sailer of VDARE makes a very compelling case against Obama.
We are lucky to have input from sources like this, including Limbaugh and Hannity, to get a real idea of what Obama is all about.

The MSM has not laid a glove on him in over a year. Instead they tend to spin and justify any negative information and any faux pas he makes. This includes his radical and racist church and his anti-American racist preacher. The MSM gave limited coverage regarding the crazy preacher story and Obama’s statement that he had not heard the anti-American rants during his 20 years of church attendance.

Michelle Obama also gave a real insight into how the Obamas think about their country with her statement of the first time she has been proud of America during her adult life.
In Obama’s first book he tell about how he deals with white people. “You must be courteous and smile and make no sudden moves.” White people will think you are a well-mannered young black man who doesn’t seem angry all the time.

Reading Obama’s “Civil Rights” vision causes countless red flags to pop up and we can be thankful that the Dems primary season is lasting as long as it is. We need to learn much more about BHO.

I could not have imagined a candidate that would make Hillary look good by compairison, but Obama is it. Why is he a candidate? Because the Idiot republican party of Illinois can’t put a qualified candidate to run against him for his senate seat, and they did a lousy job of vetting the first candidate (Jack Ryan) who had some spicy sexual history. I swear they do it on purpose.

Posted by at 11:42 PM on April 14



This is the kind of in-depth analytical thinking that makes VDARE such a great web site.

Unfortunately, most of these concepts are too complicated to be conveyed to the public at large. All of this will have to be transformed into a somewhat oversimplified statement that “Obama is more concerned about black criminals than about everyone else.”

Maybe that message could stick.

“Because the Idiot republican party of Illinois can’t put a qualified candidate to run against him for his senate seat, and they did a lousy job of vetting the first candidate (Jack Ryan) who had some spicy sexual history.”

In addition they refused to support the runner-up, immigration restrictionist Jim Oberweis, so as not to alienate the mestizos who’d never vote for a republican to save their souls.

Obama is both mentally unstable and a racist. The number of whites who support him demonstrate how effective the mainstream media has been in manipulating some people. We often wonder how past tyrants have gained power when their claims, in retrospect, appear so stupid or insane.

Unfortunately, it is occuring again before our eyes.

““Expand Use of Drug Courts
“Obama will give first-time, non-violent offenders a chance to serve their sentence, where appropriate, in the type of drug rehabilitation programs that have proven to work better than a prison term in changing bad behavior.”


Once again, from a non-racialist’s perspective, shouldn’t this be a state criminal justice issue, not a federal civil rights issue?

Uh, no. California passed a ballot initiative to partially legalize marijuana only to have it superceded by Federal law. This is a federal issue now as the Feds have taken most powers intended for the states.

When Obama said, “And it’s not surprising then they get bitter, they cling to guns or religion or antipathy to people who aren’t like them or anti-immigrant sentiment or anti-trade sentiment as a way to explain their frustrations”, I said to myself, ‘I’m less concerned about the guns and religion remarks (that’s standard liberal ideology and to be expected. I’d be surprised if he didn’t hold these views). What I find insightful is the remarks about “anti-immigrant sentiments or anti-trade sentiment”.’

What I take from this is that he’s frustrated that he can’t get through to this white demographic and that he’s trying to find a way to make his PRO-immigration and PRO-free trade sentiment palatable to the average white working American. Far from reassuring middle America, he seems to be confirming their fears about his objectives.

His remarks are a red flag regarding his plans for the United States.

But wouldn’t a President Obama be a boon to the white nationalist movement? His open racism would most likely have whites looking for someone who could stand up to the black man.

Besides, will McCain really be all that different on affirmative action quotas, immigration, bilingual education, hate crime double standards, hoax crimes, Confederate flag …etc?

Posted by Sol Rosenberg at 7:44 AM on April 15


Senator Obama is a conventional sixties style liberal. His views, outside of increased racial entitlement, are really no different than Hilary’s or even McCain’s. We are losing two wars, the dollar is diving, and the economy is in recession. Whoever gets elected will be sticking his or her hand into a hornet’s nest. A failed Obama presidency, which seems likely, will potentially make many more racial realists out of the already brainwashed America public.

Let’s face it, none of the forerunners will be any good to White Americans, however, Obama, as has been previously stated, will probably do more to wake up those White Americans who still don’t get it.

Get ready for President Obama folks! Seriously, get ready. He’s going to win the election, defeat John McCain and assist greatly in waking up White people to the realities at hand. Isn’t it worth it to have a half-Black president to discover the true realities of what life is going to be like in the future for the White minority? If he does get elected President, in four years we are going to see a great awakening in this country. Believe it, it is worth it. Actually, as contrary as it might seem at the moment, it will be a good thing for European-Americans.

I hope your right but Obama is not exactly the lone pioneer of excessive liberalism, white guilt, etc. A lot of white fools seem to like to self-flagellate. I frequent a non-political message board (it is music based) and most of the white people there have not blinked an eye in regard to Obama’s wife, Obama’s minister…

Plus, most likely he will be able to choose at least one Supreme Court Justice (if not as many as three) so his legacy to a certain extent can go on longer than his tenure in office.

In regard to your NYC subway experience that is funny to a certain extent but could be a harbinger of worse to come. Recently I was in the Port Authority and a black women making a nuisance of herself verbally attacked a white guy trying to buy a newspaper-he accidentally tapped into her while she was purchasing her lottery tickets. It was sort of humorous, she also seemed to despise the Indian ticket agents, but also a little scary in that it showed how much rage lies below the surface of the anointed race.

Sol Rosenberg, you are so right. I don’t know how sincere you are, but I’ll give you the benefit of the doubt. At any rate, supporting the Republicans means more of the same treatment we got from Bush. Why go there again? With McCain in the White House, conservative Republicans, who would otherwise be opposed to many leftist schemes, will feel obliged to support a fellow Republican president. It will be a disaster on many fronts. However, with Obama sitting on the White House Throne, conservatives will have a reason to coalesce as they did against Harriet Myers and Hispanic amnesty. We can stop a Democrat. Can we stop a Republican? I’m going to hold my nose and vote for Obama, then oppose him with all my power!!!

You know who’s really bitter and who really clings to guns? Blacks, that’s who. They become aggrieved and use guns to make holes in each other on a daily basis.

I’ve been trying to wake people up to the dangers of anti-white racism for a while now. Each time I say something (supported by facts, statistics etc.), I get the same answers: “it’s no big deal”, “I disagree with you”, “there’s more anti-black racism” etc. etc. - and these people don’t even bother to read the facts. Their opinions are based purely on prejudice. So I say let them elect their beloved Obama and let the country go the way it wants to go. The rest of us need to just let them self-destruct and then, from the ruins, we can build a normal country where people can live in peace. The ignorant masses simply will not listen to us in the numbers required to actually make a difference. They’re either stupid or brainwashed or both.

The question that needs to be asked is who exactly would vote for a racist black president? Blacks constitute less than 15% of the population, so their votes hardly matter. Hispanics hate blacks and are actively ethnically cleansing and commandeering established black neighborhoods. And the majority of white male democrats would never vote for a black and the white democrat females will vote their gender. So, other than blacks and a handful of effeminate male radical white liberals who exactly would vote for a racist black president? Obama bin Laden will never be president and you can count on it…

If Obama “graces” the White House, it’ll quickly turn into the Black House full of bitter black cabinet members; and we “typical white people” will be doomed!

Of course, none of the “corporate candidates” will do us “typical white people” any good; and that’s just the way it was planned by the powers that be…

Moving right on to the North American Union… It’s a “regional” thing. It’s a “diversity” thing. It’s a “G** D** America” thing…

Check out a relatively new website called Western Voices World News - a great site for European Americans!

Obama the black American messiah presents no surprises. Just another tax the multinational corporation’s ill-gotten gains (exploitation of “free” trade agreements not in the national interest or American worker’s interests) and print money to hand out to the growing poor underclass in this country. He will look like the candyman during his Presidency and then when the money’s gone and the dollar devalued; he will be too just like the carpetbagger he is imo.

“Tony Soprano”:

The problem with “voluntary racial segregation” is that it would require Americans to “voluntarily” commit to it. Which people who love this country as it is will never do.

You could have picked a more realistic fantasy
