Bi-Polar
Whether it is a joke about the presidential RACE or
a thread to expose the politics, I am not sure.
I had this as my contribution.
"Sentenses that strike the attention and hurt the conscience
What a joke. White folks and other Americans are so eager to believe race is not an issue in this country. Let’s reflect on the immigration issues that still plague us as a nation. Get real America.
Just because the Republicans are crazy doesn’t make the Democrats sane
A strong infection requires a strong medicine
Let’s not measure our progress in 217-years, but rather in our American-way of thinking. Because that is what holds a good future for the next generation
Might I point out that we have never had a Jewish president either though all the western democracies have had Jewish leaders, starting in the nineteenth century. Women have led these domocracies as well
It is time that America catches up with the rest of the world and practices what it preaches
Sure you will have black mayors and legislators , but not for the highest government position. Let not Obaama fool himself. Remember the Ad. against Ford.That will be put out against him too.
O.K. so it’s time to elect a woman or a black.
If either actually win in this country, I hope they too will be given another 200+ years of fixing it!
I think that Americans are skeptical about the possibility of an African American or female presidential candidate
So why are we even asking the question of whether we are ready to be who we think we are?
The same people who do not want female pastors, do not want female politicians. In the whole Christian (esp homeschool) arena, the idea of a woman leading a man in anything is not cool.
It does not matter if America is ready for them. All that matters is that they are ready for the position
The issue of the next political election should not be if Americans are sexist or racist.
There are enough prime economic, juridical, and political issues to be addressed without adding these to the fray for the sake of the polls.
Let’s all hope that the strong candidates we all crave magically appear from the ashes of our republic in time for 2008.
If a highly Catholic nation like Chile can elect an atheist woman, we should be able to be able to follow in their footsteps..
