Everyone needs to sit back and think of the person they are voting for.

Yeah, I'll see what I can do about digging it up. I'd like to read what I saw. LOL Besides, I want to send it to someone I know. If I can't do it now, I'll try when I get back from Dr.

I thought the same things. Dh works with a man who's wife is black. They were talking about it at work, she stated "oh no honey, it's about race" Dh just looked at her and said "oh"

That's fine, it doesn't make either of us wrong. :-)

Is this the ad you're referring to?

It appears to me that "make history" is referring to the record number of young voters.

-oh, because SHE is black she has the magical insight? it simply doesnt make sense to encourage voters to vote "to make history" because no matter who wins, it will still make history.

from both of these ads i think it is fairly obvious that he is trying to get large voter turnout. of course he wants those votes to be for him. but in no way did i see 'race' playing as an undertone

I'm not even going to address that ridiculous remark.


And you're right, no matter who wins this is a historical election. I'm afraid that it's going to be historical AFTER as well. I really believe it's about race.

"His economic policy is going to put us into a depression."


You should go see the documentary I.O.U.S.A. - it explains very well how

"I still remember the pictures of our soldiers going into that house with guns pointing at that little boy and the guy that was trying to protect him. Can you imagine what was going through that little boy's mind when that happened?"


Do you have that much empathy and sympathy for all of the families that have been devasted by military action around the world?
