Let's talk about the post-election racial tension

[The_Sheff]

I hope Romney wins the popular vote by a wide margin and still loses. Thats the only way we would get rid of the electoral college. Republicans wont stand for getting fukked over like Democrats do.

No matter who wins, im not going to work Tuesday night.

 

[stealthbomber]

the person above me explained it fairly well.

if Obama wins, will there be angry white people?

Of course.

Are they angry because a black guy won? That's purely speculation for the most part.

lost souls...

 

[Slim]

If Obama wins the Electoral College but loses the Popular, the "He's not my President" rhetoric, will be at an all-time high.

 

[Trip]

lost souls...

were talking about the same people that voted for Obama in 2008.

basically.

It doesn't mean that C@Cas are more upset or tense with the average black or hispanic person more so than normal. ( or v visceral)

Many whites have got that guilt vote out the way already. The others he lost are just fed up with the nation and it's simply too easy to blame the black guy in charge.

I wouldn't say post-election racial tension. I would say post election nation still messed up since 2004 and most of the nation's projected voters can't relate to a semi-swagged up president with a bad wife who doesn't fit into the ideas of what the white house family has been for over 200 years....

plus he lost that first debate.

racial-of, pertaining to, or characteristic of one race or the races of humankind.

tension-mental or emotional strain; intense, suppressed suspense, anxiety, or excitement.

a strained relationship between individuals, groups, nations, etc.


I'm not talking about riots, and wars and violence, but there will be a LOT of racial tension when Obama wins the election, maybe loses the popular vote, only wins 30 something % of white people and dominates among non-whites 80 something to the teens. It's going to be the talk of election...watch.

Chris Weigant: Last Election for Electoral College?

an article on huffingtonpost.com about eliminating the ELECTORAL COLLEGE... how 2012 will be the last election to use this format

Prove it then. You are pulling that out of your ass.

I think its pretty absurd to automatically equate anger(when the person you are rooting for loses) with racism.

Obviously I'm not saying any white person who doesn't vote for Obama is a racist. But if you don't see that there's a lot of animus toward Obama by a lot of voters that is based upon his race and feelings that have toward people of his race, you live on another planet. You're the typical ignorant oblivious to race American voter anyway, and you've proven it time and time again here. There's no use talking to you.

this wasn't even what you were arguing.

I think youre mistaken that you'll see OJ levels of tension if/when Obama wins the election. It seems that's what you're rooting for however.

lol, your upset because you think I was attacking your thread so you insult me?

OK 'vvd', . i know, i know, ur e-persona is all you have. You been on my sh1t since sohh and I don't really remember why because I basically was absent from online for nearly a year due to a promotion (got busy in real life) so I apologize if I don't know where it's coming from but...

Whatever loser, I an very conscious of race relations in this nation.... and there's nothing to prove.

And if there's no use to something.. I usually don't do it; why did you? No need for a childish attack and all your other usual fakkit sh1t


However, I would say it's the normal tension. It's the US after all.

Yeah, that's what I want.

I'm being realistic. Much in the same way that left-wingers (including myself) were upset and lashing out at Bush voters for being in our opinion so stupid to have re-elected him 2004, you're going to see the same type of reaction from right-wingers...but on steroids.

And you can't avoid the racial disparity elephant in the room. Obama is winning 82-16% among non-whites. He's going to win with the lowest % of white voters of any President in history. It's going to be discussed in the media ad nauseum, with the racial breakdown numbers on the screen. We're seeing a clear extreme polarization of racial political preferences greater than ever before. The shyt's gonna be worse than the O. J. verdict.

 

[Trip]

disagree. I hope not at least.

I see your point though.

Are you retarded? I was talking to Trip, you imbecile. Not you. The fact that I quoted him and not you in the post was kinda of a hint I thought.

Geez...did your promotion force you to forget how the standard message board quoting system works?

oh I though you were coming at me. I was looking at something else at the same time. aight then. But yeah I just started back.

 

[Mike Otherz]

i said before, if obama wins, these cacs will attempt an assassination. just remember how angry the tea party cacs were two years ago/ we aint seen nothing yet.

 

[Shogun]

I think people over estimate this shyt. Some people will be bytchy but life will go on either way.


Some of y'all the same people who were positive the first black person to be elected president would get assassinated immediately.
