If the Michelle Obama and Louis Farrakhan tape really exists – would it change your vote?
Yes – McCain supporters – I already now your answer. I’m wondering about Obama supporters whether Democrats or Independents. Would this change the way that you view Obama?
I would never vote for anyone who was supported by Louis Farrakhan!
no, since I’m not voting for him anyways.
No. Obama is his own person.
As I’m undecided, it wouldn’t really change anything for me. but it would make me finally decide to vote McCain.
NOPE
Obama 08
It doesn’t exist so why bother asking.
it wouldn’t…I already know he’s a liar so my view of him as a liar would be preserved. And FYI I am not a McCain supporter.
Nope….There is nothing the Obamas’ can do that will make me vote for a sexist, pro-war, anti-gay, and anti-abortion Presidential canidate like John Mccain.
OBAMA 08!!!!!!!!!!!!
That would make me either not vote or depending on who McCain ran with…..I might go with McCain.
It’s the McCain-Ron Jeremy tape I’m worried about.
No. I’m voting for her husband, not her.
Whether a “tape” exists or not, everyone is fully aware of Michelle Obama’s support of Farrakhan. She is the one who gave the praise speech when he accepted the TUCC Lifetime Achievement Award. I’m still trying to figure out what he did that was so great, as to receive such an award, unless of course it is his staunch support of racism and anti-American views.
Yes if she was rallying with known leaders who condemn whites I would not vote for him because as a white that would concern me. If McCain’s wife was pictured with KKK leaders or a group like that would we elect him?
Obama groupies obviously don’t care if all the things that have come out already hasn’t convinced them.
First off, it doesn’t. The transcript is inconsistent with the date. More damning, it’s ripped directly from a book. The tape doesn’t exist. If it did, it would’ve hit a long time ago.
As for what it’d do to my vote…where I am supposed to cast it? For McCain? Fat chance of that happening. Obama’s the man with the plans…and as long as that’s true, that’s where my vote is going….
I would never vote for anyone who was supported by the leader of the Nation of Islam Luis Farrakhan.
Just make me run faster toward McCain
Not in the least. Why, you ask? Look at the alternative: John Insane.
Is it supposed to be a sex tape?
I haven’t heard about this one!
NO it wont change my vote my vote was changed when Obama decided to run. He is grossely under qualified for the job. His only plus is that he makes great speeches and knows what to say and when to say it…HMMMMM, sounds familiar….Oh yeah!!!! George W Bush!!! This man totally reminds me of GW from back in the 2000 election. But at least GW had run a state. This guy was a state legislator. And for those of you that say that is enough, I have coached pee-wee football ever since I was in high school playing football, over 20 yrs now. So, does that mean I can go into Jerry Jones office and ask for the job…..l DON’T THINK SO!!!!! Same difference when it comes to comparing being a state legislator and being President of the US. Think about it! Please, otherwise its another 4 yrs of crap. Well, either way we’re screwed now. McInsane or Obamanation? We are doomed for the next 4 yrs.
Depends, I’d like to see the actual tapes first. There was an idiot asking if a video of Osama bin Laden congratulating Obama was real for example xD
I bet u wish it would.
All u hatin republicans: i bet ya’ll are just itchin for a tape! Lol And im’a tell u what: I’ma feel the same way about Michelle’s supposed tape that ya’ll felt about Kramer’s tape. yeaaah.. u know what i’m talkin about lol
but there is no such tape, b/c if it was, I’m POSITIVE that all u Anti-Obama, fear mongering, conservative repubs would JUMP at the chance to upload it. So, sorry guys, back to the drawing board.
The more I read comments like this, the more I think about that old Sly Stone song (from the ‘Sixties band “Sly and the Family Stone” for those of you who weren’t around them) : “Don’t call me “Whitey”, n*g*er…Don’t call me “N*g*er”, whitey”…remember that one?
Does anybody else, after reading a lot of the postings on Yahoo!Answers get the feeling that at this stage of the game, the current Presidential campaign has become just as much, if not more, of a referendum on the current state of race relations in the U.S. than about the candidates themselves?
It’s mind-blowing. I thought we had come farther than this. I guess I was wrong.
Why are you guys so fearful of Louis Farrakhan ? Don’t get me wrong I like Farrakhan I don’t agree with everything he believes but as a man I chose my own views like I don’t agree with everything Martin Luther King believed doesn’t take away from the man for all the talk of america being a melting pot you guys don’t take the time to really get to know your nubian/black neihbors has anyone of you guys and girls who responded ever read a book put out by the nation of Islam ?? or are you guys going by what others say ?? anyway I think most of the problems we face as neihbors is the lack of commutcation I don’t think you guys understand where we’re coming from as a people and I think what burns us up is the fact the 85% of us don’t feel you give two sh**t about what we think…….How about this I’m going to post some questions
1. How does white america truly feel about its treatment past and present of nubian/native americas/and minorities ingeneral.
2.Do you think our miss trust of the system is warranted considering our history.
3.How do you guys feel about a divorce? would you welcome us seperating from your system of goverment laws ect. and working together as indivials or separet parties
…………..I say this because the next gen aren’t buying into the dream any more me included….we’re looking for a better way and it has nothing to do with elections thats still falling under a foriegn system…..any real ideals of bridging the gap sorry for the miss spelling i though spell check was working and i’m too busy at work to prof read
James C you missed the point you still fell to realize your system was set up by your forefathers and you should support that its yours and you should be proud of it. But what does your system have to do with me as a nubian/black man yes race is important we have never given up our identy to pursue the american dream we were kiddnap and brought here or adducted here on these shores and used as slave labor so the option is still ours to make do we as a people continual to support a racist system thats counter productive to our well being (80% of the prison population when you say we are 7% of the population here in the states) white america is missing the point if you think we as a people need anything from you the question floating around is do we break away or continual to lend you our support in every field from millitary and so on we make up more than 25% and if we decide to stop paying your goverment our hard earn money as a whole and it can be done look at sciencetology they don’t pay taxes you’ll miss the very people you abused if you don’t think we can’t walk away your fooling your self slavery is over and we don’t fear you your system or your jails so we’re at a impass so if you as a whole keep giving us your a** to kiss and turn a deaf ear to this gen of nubians your going to wake up to find us off the playing field…. oh yea as far as allowing us to vote check out the arrogance dog you don’t allow us to do anything most do it now because they still they can make a difference in your system thats all we’re not your puppets any more we’re a proud race of people no one I mean no allows us to do anything we do what we want vote don’t vote the choice is ours and as far as other countries that thier house thats their stuff if the want to live that way in their house so be its up to them to rearrange thier house the way they see fit you you arrogant people haven’t realize that yet you are always going to have problems you offer your support your addvice you offer shelter if need be but you don’t go into someones house uninvited…we allow our minotrities to vote..better yet translation we allow our slaves to vote i think thats what he was trying to say LOL they will never learn there losed…maybe thats why they hate the nation I think they said “you can’t change the nature of the devil” so he the honarable Elijah Muhammed thought “Do for self” so next question in hind sight who had the better message Martin Luther king turn the other cheek or Elijah Muhammed “do for self” if our parents fell under he’s umbrella we whould be self- suficient
For all you non-educated, white and black, men and women, homosexual and straight, christian jewish muslim mormon buddhist, vegans vegeterians and meat eaters… This is America. This is a country that was founded on human morals, and principles. Do we have a troubled past? Absolutely. Do we have tense race relations and do they continue to get more and more tense as this election moves forward? Yes we do. But. Moving forward in the race based on whos black and muslim and who is white and christian, is that absolute wrong way to be looking at this. You are all looking at what the Large party political machines want you to look at. So they can control you, Republicans and democrats work together in DC, the state houses, the county houses of chosen freeholders, the local town and city councils. When are you all going to realize this, these elections are merely to focus you on which of the wrong set of rules you want to govern you. If you want change, go to school. Learn something, work an 8 dollar an hour job and pay for a tudor to teach you the right way. pull yourself up by the bootstraps and make something of yourselves. You all say that America is so bad, have you ever been outside of this country. Venezuela, Iraq, Chek Republic, China, Taiwan, Israel, Vietnam. Hell take a trip down to Mexico and not for cancun, go to their largest city, Mexico City, and see what their people live like, in disgusting detritus infested ghettos, where their woman are turned into slave and prostitutes at the age of 13. Where people go for days without eating. Place where there is no work what so ever, for anyone. AND COLLEGE? forget about it. Doesnt Exist, unless you are one of their elitists. DO we need change? yes. But how bout in the form of what party we vote for? How about looking at other options, The libertarian party and Bob Barr, most likely. How about deserting the party conventions this year, DONT GO IN. Keep your mouths shut, and nobody vote at all on election day. Look within yourselves and find out what really is bothering you and stop looking to politicians for answers. DONT FORGET THEY WORK FOR US. We pay them to have our best interests on their minds. Talk about why in the United States, a leader in human rights “we ship jobs overseas to countries where people are making 13 cents a week to build their economies when ours is suffering. Get rid of NAFTA. Bring american jobs home. Work on our foreign policy? absolutely, but don’t let someone cowtow to Terrorism. And keep in mind, that whether or not you like BUSH people Islam extremists DO want us all dead. We allow our women, our minorities to vote, work, and dress as they please. We allow all forms of religion to call this country home. DOES Iran do that? Does Afghanistan? Does Iraq? Does India? ABSOLUTELY NOT. There are so many things wrong with this country. But there are so many things right. We do not need a national health care plan. How do you think they are gonna pay for it in DC? through paycuts to Senators and Congressmen? No they are going to raise your taxes. Have you looked at the healthcare systems in Europe that are nationally sponsored and tended to? You probably haven’t. Did you know the average waiting time for a doctors appointment in Canada is about 3 weeks? All I am saying is investigate the different parties yourselves, and start looking at alternatives. Speak your voices as individuals, and STOP letting race be an issue. Stop thinking that obama and mccain are the only answers to these problems. There is a way to do this, so that the power ends up in our hands, benefiting us, the people that work 181 days a year just to pay our income taxes, then buy goods to live and enjoy life that are taxed. Then pay high prices to buy water and electrity which are taxed. Which we already pay taxes on. learn research and investigate. and lets make this country, this land, this world better together.
