    Obama plays the race card constantly and half of his campaigning is a greatly exagerrated story about his family being diverse and from Kenya. But Obama has defo used his race to his advantage.

    Yep, most folks thought this was a huge gaffe back in May, when this was first discussed on DP:

    Glad he knows how many homes he owns, though.

    I wish we could ignore Obama's race, but unfortunately we live in a racist society.

    The fact that he's the Democratic Nominee is a great step forward.

    However in the privacy of the voting booth, I firmly believe America's inert racism will be the deciding factor.

    I hope I'm wrong, but I don't think so.

    I think the majority of racism in america is mostly a media myth that has been hyped to levels that it does not actually exist on.

    I got a funny rep today from this thread "racist. Obama is the best. At least he is Promoting Islam"

    Don't get me wrong, I support Obama over McCain by a landslide.. but I really don't think they should care what color the presidents skin is.

    And how exactly does Obama promote Islam anyways?

    Talk to Grim, as he apparently got the exact same rep.

    Personally, I sniff an anti-Obama lad at play, getting jollies by anonymous nonsense. Seems to be going around quite a bit today.
