No. Actually, it sounds more like a giant load of horseshit.

How do you feel about his name, Barack Hussein Obama? Do you have the same objectivity?

I'm not sure who you were addressing your question towards, but if it was to me, I have no feelings about his name whatsoever.

ANYway,

I understood what you said about "a colorblind society", and voting for Obama, teenyboone.

Don't bust a gasket trying to explain stuff that either someone gets at the first, or not at all.

I just told you when I look at Obama I don't see a black man. Does that sound like a racist to you?

No, I think the person who looks at someone and focuses on the color of their skin, is a racist. You may not agree, or you may find that a bitter pill to swallow, but that is what I believe.

And what do you think teenyboone sees when she looks at Obama?

How do you feel about his name, Barack Hussein Obama?

Good to hear. Wish there were a lot more like you around this country.

Doesn't sound very American to me.

Sounds to me like you don't know the difference between WHITE and BLACK...

Why?

I have to say I don't really get that -- you decided to vote for someone way in advance and then you just don't really pay attention to anything else because you've already decided?

Of course don't change your mind based on color or gender -- but what about changing your mind based on issues, or how a given person conducts his or her campaign, or implications for America's ability to repair relations with the rest of the world, or or or...

If you say that you've examined Obama closely and you still prefer Hillary, that's one thing -- but with "who decided to vote for Clinton before Obama became a factor in the election" it sounds like you've never really given Obama a close look in the first place.
