The excuses are already starting - and if Obama loses, its all because of race.

Of course - if racism was so rampant - he wouldn't have been elected in the first place, but that little fact escapes mention. No - if he loses it couldn't possibly be because of his record on the economy, or all the broken promises, or massive debt increases, or health care mandates, etc.

By the interest and knowledge the common voter shows, do you really think most people even know Obama is black ?

They are now considering a law ruling a compensation of 5% of the total electorate poolsize for all non-White political candidates, due to the politically incorrect problem of population-wide thought crimes.

They also plan an amendement saying that the right to vote becomes void if the right is abused for voting the wrong guy.

I already see the headline in the LA Times in 2022: "New POTUS Amada Mombeki elected with 105% of all votes!"

^ A 'constitutional republic', with dwindling rights for democratic vote

What is true is that Romney has now gathered more money from his supporters, than Obama ever wasted for his campaign.

Anyway the president of the United States cannot be elected directly, by the people, but only by electors - just as we had it in Germany a long time ago, with the 'Kurfuersten' who elected the king or Kaiser of the country.

If Obama loses, it won't all be because of race, but i think race is a large part of it. With all the bullcrap that has surrounded Obama's presidency like "Birthers" and a congressman yelling out to the President during an address, "You lie!" and all the other myriad things that are unique to Obama's term, i fail to see how race is NOT an issue. These negative things are all unique to Obama's term, and the only thing unique about obama is the color of his skin.

However I also think Race is also a part of why he got elected to begin with. Of course to prove or disprove that, all you need to do is look up percentage of white vs non white voter turn out during that election year. I'm pretty sure alot of blacks (if not most blacks?) voted for Obama because he was black and for no other reason.

Since this topic is not that important to me, ill let someone else do that research if its such a burning issue. Personally im convinced race is part of the issue. Racism exists, no matter how hard people try and pretend it doesn't.

EDIT:
It's also worth mentioning that the voter demographic is changing. Insert my standard rant about illegal immigration here.
