    Allow me to introduce you to the One Drop Rule.

    It used to be used to strengthen segregation and disenfranchise. To make anyone with even the slightest African heritage "black" .

    Now we're trying to make the first black president who looks, talks, and carries himself like most of the black people I hang around, not black.

    The irony is surreal.

    Agreed.

    About as ironical as saying Obama's extraordinarily unifying speech on race is "actually" an exemplar of "race hate speech."

    Or naming the single source, Fox poll's "9-point lead to nothing" poll as "all but non-leftist polls." Real Clear (a right-wing pollster), for instance, has it with an electoral lead for Obama at 311-142 (toss ups) (169 point lead), 353-185 (no toss ups) (168 point lead). Popular, according to the RCP sources, is anywhere from "+3+ (Fox), to +11 (CBS). RCP average is +6.5.

    Ever watch "Curb your Enthusiasm"? If anything, he's the first "bi-racial"...

    That show touches just about every stereotype to the max and exploits the PC as well to the point where you see the silliness in both.

    It's this kind of thinking that scares me about an Obama presidency.

    To have to deal with this for 4 (possibly 8) years is almost too much to imagine.

    Well, I've lived through Clinton/Bush, so it should be good preparation.

    No I've never seen it. I hear it's funny as hell.

    I didn't think there would be a more idiotic post that the OP, but you decided to clarify your thinking and now sound even more ridiculous. Nice work.

    More people should watch it. It is fricken hilarious. Jeff Greene and Larry David are genius's. Larry David for those that do not know is the co-creator of "Seinfeld". Its like watching "Seinfeld" uncensored.
