   they really find it weird to see a half black man or a fully black man wisdom, they always thought we are just dumb black monkey. Let me tell you, God don´t hate us!!!!

   its just a matter of time when he wins or not but the truth will remain racist aren´t ignorant but rather the one who call em ignorant. I say racist are just retarded, always checking what color not the words a wise man says.

   I bet you understand this and don´t judge by the color cause if you do then you´re closing many doors

   I think this cartoon shows why obama has made it this far. there isn’t a single black person who won’t vote for him just because he is black. then white people say they like him because they don’t want to be called a racist. besides, who could agree with anything he says. it is all a bunch of bullshit, especially his anti-war stance and he is only popular like hillary because he is running to be the first black president like she is running to be the first woman president.

   This cartoon is very racist. I don’t see how it could be seen any other way. And you would assume a country such as Israel, which can easily identify with being discriminated against, would not be quick to be so judgemental.
   Obama’s race is not the reason why he has made it so far in this presidential election, as suggested by the most recent comment. Every U.S. citizen is entitled to vote for whomever they choose, regardless of their race. And despite which way any person may “says” they are going to vote, when he/she gets to the polls, he/she will ultimately do what they truly feel.
   Thus, democrats ultimately feel Barack Obama best represents the ideals of the democratic party. And hopefully, the rest of the country will agree.

   I don’ t think that it’s racist, I think that they are just making fun of his idea of “change.” I could picture him wanting to change the color of the white house. (He want’s to change the president’s seal).

   This is not racist, this just points out that a lot of changes are coming, and we may not have wanted many of the changes if we knew all the details before we voted. Change means things could get better, but change also means things could get worse. Be careful what you wish for!!
