Quoted in The New York Times a pipe-fitter in Mobile Ala. had this to say concerning Sen.Obama's race..."He's niether-nor.He's other.It's in the Bible.Come as one.Don't create other breeds"....opinions please .

to many in both black & white, mixed race people are a blemish on society.  i think that might be what the man meant.

To many people, really? I don't think so. A few insane freaks may feel that way, but there isn't that many of them.

i have lived on both sides.  i am not an expert, but i have lived it for almost 50years.  it is a real belief in both races.  some do not express it openly or to you, but that belief is real.

no but i think there are many that do not believe it is a real feeling or belief that it exist.  i feel most will blame this on ignorance nd the uneducated as your OP stated.  to alot of intelligent and educated people, mixed race people, like me are a blemish on society.

Bestbaby do you believe a formal education or for that matter a high IQ means a person can't be ignorant in their racial views?

Bestbaby is correct.
Harry Truman was against miscegination(sp?). and he said so in public.

Thats how I learned the word; reading what Truman said.

what does THAT have to do with governance and representation?

nothing.

If he doesnt get along with some groups, I guess that is his perogative.   IMO- Obamas race is an asset, not a liabilty.

I understand some cultures can be fearful of others'   but I do think that in this case, it is misplaced.

To be fair, Mike, education and a decent IQ tend to help in that department.

Not necessarily. High IQ well educated people are more adept at disguising what they really feel

i do not find that all people that are educated or have high IQ's to be ignorant in their racial beliefs.  that is there belief, no matter how misguided.  i would not label them as a biggot or racist.  they just have their belief.  i experience this everyday.  i have friends & colleagues that are very very conservative when it comes to racial boundaries etc.  but i do not label them as ignorant.  it is there belief no matter how wrong it is.  most of them can tell you why they believe that way and to me their reasons do not sound ignorant.  most keep that belief to themselves unless they are asked about it.

there are large numbers of us who have difficulty understanding what this idiot meant.

Many things that people believe, and say, are unfortunate and ultimately destructive. For example, large numbers of us have difficulty understanding why some people brand anyone whose beliefs they disagree with an idiot.
 
Personally, I see nothing to recommend in either of your views.
