Apparently supporting Cain means I'm a racist

[Xavier_Onassis]

A Black person who votes for Obama is a racist, you say? Would that be ALL Balck people who vote for Obama, or merely some?

Is a White person who votes for McCain or any White person also a racist?

How can you distinguish between a racist person who votes for a member of his own race, and one that does the same thing, but is NOT a racist?

Bingo BOZO, that's why what Janeane Garofalo said is utter nonsense. That's why Liberalism is a mental disorder. Now your ilk are obsessing on Christy's fatness.

how come if the democrats represent the blacks
there is not a single black member of the US Senate?

Because Democrats are racists and they like to keep their Negros on a short leash.

There was one, but he was promoted to President by 53% of the people.

Hmmmm I donno , I should consult an expert on that subject.

Hello ,expert ,how does one determine the purportionality of racism in a large group?

Cain got 36 % of the vote in the FL primary. At best, this indicates that 36% of the voters in that straw poll are not racists. 

Ah I see!   Racism can be assumed as a default untill there is solid evidence otherwise.

I did NOT say that 36% are not racists, I said at AT BEST (meaning at most, or between 0% and 36%) are not racists.

Thus validating his point; you think Republicans are racist, even some of the ones that voted for Cain.

Am I missing something in XO's logic or illogical point? If a racist is a racist then why would a racist vote for Cain a black man?

[Xavier_Onassis]

YOu did not understand, so yes, you are missing something.Perhaps I did not phrase this correctly.

If we assume that no racist would vote for a Black man, and observe that 36% voted for Cain (who is Black), then we must logically conclude that if there are racists, they are among the 64% who did NOT vote for Cain.



I would say that this means that somewhere between 0% and 64% of the voters are racists, since none of those who voted for Cain are. (If we assume that no racist would vote for a Black man).

I am not sure that no racist would vote for Cain.Perhaps one might for some ulterior motive. We cannot assume that everyone votes consistent with logic.

        If the best proof that one is not a racist is to vote for leadership that belongs to another race, then what is a Black Republican who likes Herman Cain for his resume' gonna do?   Can his vote for Herman leave him vunerable to a charge of Racism?

Yes , exactly.

[Xavier_Onassis]

A Black person who votes for either Cain or Obama cannot be seriously described as acting out of racism.

There could be many possible motives, but racism is not one of them.

    I don't understand your logic.

    Please expand your idea?
