I am proud to support the best man with the right stuff to rise to the occasion of fixing what the Bush Administration has broken.
He will also be the notice served by the American people that the cancerous evil of racism in the United States has reached the tipping point toward extinction.
November forth McCain's campaign nave will encounter an Obama tsunami as Americans stand up to say enough is enough, and elect a man who will be instrimental in keeping the American Republic alive for a long time to come.

I have to give you credit, Mike.
Like "...Pollyanna (who) brings so much gladness to her aunt's dispirited New England town that she transforms it into a pleasant place to live." you try to uplift this place, your community and the world by sheer willpower and positive thinking."
And, just because I can't change the world doesn't mean that you can't.
But, later if you discover that racism is a human problem and Barack isn't the solution, I hope you won't be too disappointed.
I mean, do you really expect professional civil rights workers to say, "I'm no longer needed. Let's fold the NAACP-CORE-SPLC-etc., and go get honest jobs somewhere!"?
No, Mikey, as long as one white person fails to vote for Obama, racism will be alive and well and need constant monitoring by well funded "watchdogs" who ferret out evil "white ethnocentrism".
In fact, if President Barack gives into the whiners and tries to use the power of govt to "commission studies" to further force blacks upon whites he'll make things much worse. This is what happened in the 60's when already dissipating racial animosities were rekindled with the passage of the Voting Rights Act of 1965 and The Civil Rights Act of 1968.
I hope he wins, too. It will either prove or disprove the theories of the master planners, and the country will either be at peace or we'll be at war.
Either way white folks will no longer be asleep at the wheel.
And, you'll be in for a big surprise when your black in-laws run you off instead of finally accepting you.
And maybe we whites can have our wonderful schools back, and blacks can do...well, whatever the Hell they like with their kids during school hours.

Well, black fathers are all but non-existent and black mothers would be living in coconut trees were it not for the largess of American taxpayer. So, a hardy fuck-you to self-appointed white racial avengers. Should they lay a finger on me or someone I love I'll take their heads off. Let the racial divide grow wide and deep. I'm done with Marxist trash, both black and white.
