Why don't you just go ahead and start wearing white robes and a cone-shaped hood with eye-holes cut out already?
Dude. You take other peoples' ideas and bring them to the radical extremes. I've noticed them because I've seen you do this to me and I myself do it too.
Also, guys...
Think about this. Obama's grandmother was "afraid" of African Americans people but she loved her grandson dearly. When Obama was about 12, his grandfather revealed that his grandmother was a racist (which crused Obama.)
A lot of "racist" people voted for Obama, because they generally dislike the race as a whole, not the individuals themselves. (This is how I feel towards Japanese people.)
Killing Obama would most likely create a lot of African-American-sympathy all over the U.S. This is just a personal speculation. I mean, the African Americans have just won their great victory. His assassination would probably make most people feel sorry for these amazing people who have risen up against oppression. As I would.
Killing him because he's black falls into the category of a hate crime. The term "hate crime" has very distinct borders (doing something against someone because of their ethnicity, gender, etc.), but "racist" has very, very vague borders (it's subjective.) I consider anyone who isn't racially "colorblind" (doesn't take race into account) racist. This includes myself as being racist, and almost everyone else I know. So yeah, calling someone a racist is a very loose term! (I keep thinking about that Avenue Q song... everyone's a little bit raciiiist, today...)
(I only talked about hate crimes because some kid at my school was rumored to be cited for a hame crime due to him dressing up as border patrol. And we have a good amount of Latinos in our school.)
EDIT: Er, the point I'm getting at is that being a "racist" is not necessarily a bad thing. However, committing "hate crimes" is.
When did the whole world go retarded? (may or may not include mario sprites)
This is an interesting topic. We should discuss it some more. Seriously, I've been thinking about this kind of stuff a lot lately.
EDIT: Infact, this is one of the most profound forums topics I have ever read. Also ignore my above post which may or may not contain a personal attack.

Uh, Azn... you might want to stay in school for a few more years.
207+55(California)=262. I'm pretty certain Obama will get California.

One thing I'm kind of curious -- I've heard Obama has already got a lot of assassination threats/plots on him... Has anyone heard anything about this, or are they just rumors that everyone in Houston likes to talk about...?
The thing is, if he is assassinated that would just probably heighthen racial sympathy.

Socialism is a broad term that involves the government taking involvement in the economy. However, business and stuff can start up. Communism itself is an extreme brand of socialism, which the government has total control over the economy. (Thus everyone gets paid the same, everyone is equal, and government pays for almost everything for you. Capitalism = when the government gives free public education, but you have to pay for everything else.) Socialism is generally viewed as a middle ground or transition between communism and capitalism.
