From his spot on the Time Ideas blog, the MSNBC anchor Toure admitted “If President Obama had to run against Senator Obama of 2008, he’d probably be crushed. Back then, Obama seemed superhuman; today he is merely mortal. His victory in 2008 was historic, breaking the race barrier in the nation’s highest office.”
Guess what came next. Re-electing Obama is a greater test of whether America is racist than it was in 2008: “But an Obama victory in 2012 would say something even more profound about how far our country has come. Granted, Obama’s election (or not) is merely one of many factors that will tell us where we are on race in America. But it is a big one.” Toure put Obama into the metaphor of The Matrix:

Hm. It seems to me that voting for Obama because of his skin color is, by definition, racist.
Those who choose to vote against Obama, because of his record, are, by definition, not racist.

Bingo. Don’t fall for the con.

I am so tired of hearing about racism. Racism is like drugs. The last people who want drugs legalized are the top echelon people who make boatloads of cash from the severely inflated costs caused by the illegality of them. If drugs became legal, their cash cow dies. The people who claim to want “racism” to end are the same people who depend on racism for their survival: Jackson, Sharpton, Farrakhan, and now this Toure. If racism were to become a non-issue, these people would become immediately irrelevant and have to find real jobs. They are the ones who will say or do just about anything to insure it’s a problem that not only survives, but thrives. Their primary interest is protecting their own cash cow of racism.

Very astute comment, I have friends of many creeds and colors they are my friends not because of their color or religion. They are my friends because of their character, plain and simple. The biggest tragedy of Dr. King’s vision, aside from his assassination, is that his most trusted lieutenants have bastardized his message for personal political and financial gain. I really don’t know how these “race hustlers” can sleep at night.

You voted for him in 2008 to prove you weren’t a racist now you must vote against him to prove you aren’t stupid.

Yours should be your own independent vote. You have nothing to prove nor do you have to prove anything to anyone about whether you are a racist or not. Vote according to your conscience, and not because of a skin color without substance.
My politic is to Re-Elect Nobody.

When did “racism” become a prison word, for Whites and Whites alone, and become THE CHIEF religious doctrine for Whites, and Whites alone? Why would any-one, never mind the Race, pay any attention to a hysterical. White HATING, poisonous toad like the abomination Toure?
Anti Racist is simply code for Anti White. Toure HATES you, Mr and Mrs Whitebread. He wants you DEAD. And his obsession WITH Race serves as a harbinger for Things to Come, once his fellow abominations Obama and Holder are re-installed. Do you know about the Farm Murders of South Africa and Rhodesia? Read up fast boys and girls. Behold your fate.
"Doug Giles and his team over at ClashDaily.com cut through the crap to expose what have become modern day human slaughter houses: gun free zones. Their candid arguments about allowing teachers to protect themselves and the students in their care through concealed carry should be taken seriously. As a result maybe, just maybe, we’ll be able to save some lives someday rather than call the cops to report the body count." - Katie Pavlich.

"There were many lessons to draw from the horrific Newtown, CT school shooting. Unfortunately, most of the media and political Left came up with the wrong ones. But not Doug Giles and his writers over at ClashDaily.com. In the wake of this horror, they offered a robust defense of American citizens' right to bear arms and common sense answers to societal violence. The Sandy Hook Massacre: When Seconds Count, the Police are Minutes Away is a great resource for those interested in this vital, Constitutional issue." - S.E.
