Black President, Double Standard: Why White Liberals Are Abandoning Obama

Electoral racism in its most naked, egregious and aggressive form is the unwillingness of white Americans to vote for a black candidate regardless of the candidate’s qualifications, ideology or party. This form of racism was a standard feature of American politics for much of the twentieth century. So far, Barack Obama has been involved in two elections that suggest that such racism is no longer operative. His re-election bid, however, may indicate that a more insidious form of racism has come to replace it.

Still, electoral racism cannot be reduced solely to its most egregious, explicit form. It has proved more enduring and baffling than these results can capture. The 2012 election may be a test of another form of electoral racism: the tendency of white liberals to hold African-American leaders to a higher standard than their white counterparts. If old-fashioned electoral racism is the absolute unwillingness to vote for a black candidate, then liberal electoral racism is the willingness to abandon a black candidate when he is just as competent as his white predecessors.

The comments after the linked story are fucking priceless.

Just goes to show that no matter what, racism is alive and well if you arent black. Only whites are racist.

Disgusting.

Now, where's my EBT card? White liberals need to promise me more free stuff.

In fact, whites are 4/5ths more racist than blacks.

Are you indicating that your white ass will NOT be voting for Obama?

Or do you agree that white liberals are racist if they dont vote for Obama in 2012?

10/10 either answer is racist.


Who else is a white liberal going to vote for? Romney?

Anyone outside of Paul and Johnson fits the agenda. So, yeah, sure.

Along those lines...

Obama is a Democrat?

If I COULD, and consequently because of the failed two party system...I wish I had a 3rd or 4th choice for a Presidential nominee.

Will I be voting for Obama again? Would it be any different than voting Republican?

I want more options. But, sadly, and admittedly, I will, more than likely be voting for Obama again. I'm not crazy about his "kiss-ass-look-at-me-tryng-to-be-bi-partisan-while-they-publically-condemn-my-ass-at-every-chance" approach...or the way he went about universal healthcare, or the fact Gitmo is still open, or the way we still have troops in Iraq, and Afghanistan...

Come to think of it...I might not vote for Obama again. I'm pretty sure it's better to say your policy is THIS, and go with THIS, than it is to say you would do THIS and not do anything close to THIS.

I still say he was the better option than the, even remotely possible, President Palin option.

Fsb how can you complain about a two party system then vote status quo. Man the Fuck up. Vote for a 3rd party or write somebody in. At least if Obama gets re-elected you can say you weren't part of totally fucking this country.
The problem with Obama was the promises...

He made a buch of promises... and where is he with them?
- He said TARP and stuff would create jobs... um... no
- He said Gitmo + wars = GONE... ummm... no... we also picked up Libya.
- He said more gov't transparency... nope.
- He said he'd work through partisan politics and work together with the other side.. haha... RIGHT! (NOT!)

I mean, the guy spent his first two years blaming everything on Bush and bullying Universal Health Care through both the House and Senate because they had the supermajority...
Then, the Dems lost the House, and they're blaming it on Bush and the Tea Party for stalling negotiation...

It's like they think it's "my way or the highway" or they'll bitch and moan.


Where's the Hope and Change? There's been change, but it's WORSE than the same old shit... Finger pointing, partisanship, ZERO working together, ZERO respect coming from the House and Senate for the POTUS, IMO.

It's pretty bad, if you ask me.

I LOVE this video for 2 reasons.

1) First it's a great shot at the unrealistic expectations of Obama supporters. As if to say, "Yes, I expected him to do all THIS".

2) Second, it's a great shot at the unrealistic expectations of Obama opposition. As if to say, "Unless Obama fulfill all THIS, he is a failure as a President".

Fucking-A

You cant simultaneously bitch about a two party system and then go and toss your vote into supporting that very two party system. That's nonsensical IMO.

The only way you waste your vote is by voting for some asshole that you know is going to be an asshole.

My Grandfather once told me that he would purposefully vote for the loser...JUST so he could bitch during the current Administration.

I always thought that was a lazy cop out. Additionally, although I do want more choices, in the last election, Obama did verbally represent the closest representation of my political beliefs.

As such, it's not like I voted for Kerry so I could bitch about Bush more. It's not like I voted for Perot because I felt he was the lesser of two evils.

I DO vote by my own convictions. I think a better edit to my original statement would be, I wish 3rd or 4th party Presidential candidates received equal media coverage. Agree or disagree, sane or crazy...the message should be avaliable via mass media outlets.

That's why I'm not throwing my vote away anymore.

I'd rather watch Obama sink the ship than vote for some crazy GOP idiot who I know is going to be as articulate as a box of crayons shoved into clown shoes.

If I can't find someone who I agree with on the issues most important to me....then I refuse to vote anymore.

When I find that person, like I did this year, I'm penciling them onto the ballot whether they are a certified candidate or not.

Something has to end this bullshit system.
This is how we get stuck with Gore Vs. Bush....Kerry Vs Bush....McCain vs. Obama......and Idiot of the week vs. Obama

I'm sick of it.....there is a reason all the candidates look alike and it's because of the filtering system we have in place they they have to pander towards (to win primary nomination).

I'm skipping past those filters.......that are being sponsored by crony capitalism, statism, and lobbyists.

Says the Fucking Stupid Bitch who has an Obama quote as his sig, not to mention you are against the system while you vote for the system.

I cant believe anyone could possibly be this retarded (sorry retards, I know its insulting).

Then you posted and removed all doubt.

However, Ill let you redeem yourself. Did you read the OP and follow the link? Whats you analysis on what this black woman says about democrats like you?

After all, you did say you might not vote for him, but probably will but because you dont have more choices.

Fuck You, Motherfucker. I aint paying you shit. I have the money, I make tons in interest every year and could give it all away (it wouldnt hurt me), but you arent getting ANY.

We NEED to help the poor more; I feel their pain since I used to be poor. Thats why I expect other who have more to give more, except for me.

I can...but I need to sell weapons to Iran for hostages. They just gave the last 2 away.

Hmmm, back to the drawing board I guess.

quick read of this thread and the most strange comment is this. you're most emphatic point against Obama is probably the biggest strike against him to Liberals. While you say he did not work with the other side, the main problem with liberals is he did TOO much of that. giving too many concessions to republicans. strange.

The right is more virtuous than the left. They have twice as many virtues because they have double the standards.

They gave them away alright....for the low low cost of 500k a piece.

QFT!

Which is why I asked the question about if voting for Obama would be any different than voting for a Republican.

It's also the biggest point of confusion I have for Republican "hate" against Obama. Outside of Obama-care, I really can't think of much that Obama hasn't done that Republicans don't want.

Now stick with me here, it gets tricky:

Republicans want X. Obama wants to compromise. Republicans say no. Obama goes ahead with X as is (Bush tax cuts). Now because Obama "supports" something Republican, Republicans fight him on it and bitch about the state of the U.S.

This guy can't win. So it seems. If only he would STOP trying so fucking hard to be bi-partisan, figure out they are NOT going to like him no matter what he does and start pushing his own "promised" agenda. I really hope, if he wins a second term, this is what he does.

There are members of Congress who want nothing more than to get rid of this President as fast as possible.
______________________________________________________________________
"Oh, dark grin, he can't help, when he's happy looks insane, oh yeah"
Yeah, he and the super-majorities of democrats in both houses really felt the "bi-partisan" atmosphere that the New President brought with him. To wit:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xHo5h2cpKH0

Just focus on what obama says and ignore the rest of the video. Its the only one I could find of him telling them to get to the back of the bus. If the embed doesnt work, follow this link instead.

edit: wtf? Why arent old youtube embed links working here anymore?

If Herman Cain get the republican nomination I expect all democrats to vote for Cain or else they are racist. Obama is only half black. When Cain becomes president I expect all democrats to support all policies he puts forward or else they are racist.

spot fucking on.....and when I say that I mean the dumbest statement ever....but you certainly hit the spot.

This is the intellectual capacity of the people you are arguing with.
What's funny is how shitty the GOP has become that Liberals can't fundamentally tell the difference between Obama and Bush.

Expansive government....endless spending...unjust wars for oil peace....total government intervention....sounds like a Republican to me.

No....no it shouldn't....it does however sound like G.W. Bush and that's the problem here. This is what both parties today have merged into and why many true Conservatives are so fucking pissed off.
