Wrong on two counts:
Skybird...it is not a racial thing with Obama...it is a to radical thing with Obama. He wants to change the entire face of the US in one fell swoop. He is spending like mad and it does not look like any thought is going into it. Congress approval rating is what 35%? Obama approval rating is what 54%? How then is this racial with an approval rating like this? There is a small segament in this society that we can equivically say is racist towards Obama. Then again every President had their detractors no matter what color they are. Pulling the race card with an approval rating over 50% does not make for good math....I take it with a grain of salt that Jimmy Carter is saying this. Jimmy is one of the top 5 worst presidents the US has had IMO.

The country really wasn't ready for anything other than the stereotypical President, an old white Christian male,.... until McCain picked Palin. Given that choice, he got elected because he was the lesser of two evils.

Not true...Obama outsmarted McCains camp. He played a good hand. Every major city in America was targeted. In the major cities live democrates who for the most part would not normally vote. Obama got them out to vote. He even got smart and used every major media outlet he could find. The most influential being the internet. He won because of his excellent feel good speeches. McCain had not much to offer but the old school politics. Obama is young, fresh and inspiring. These traits helped win the white house. Obama would have one even if McCain had George Washington as a running mate.
