Why is it okay for blacks to be racist, write books about it, get elected President...but whites can't?
If a white candidate for President wrote in his books anti black sentiments, would he/she be elected? From 'Dreams of My Father', "I CEASED TO ADVERISE MY MOTHER'S RACE AT THE AGE OF12 OR 13, when I began to suspect that by doing so I was ingratiating myself to whites" From Dreams of My Father, " I FOUND A SOLACE IN NURSING A PERVASIVE SENSE OF GRIEVANCE AND ANIMOSITY AGAINST MY MOTHER'S RACE". From 'Dreams of my Father', "The emotion between the races could never be pure..... the THE OTHER RACE (WHITE) WOULD ALWAYS REMAIN JUST THAT: MENACING, ALIEN AND APART" From Dreams Of My Father, "never emulate white men and brown men whose fates didn't speak to my own. IT WAS INTO MY FATHER'S IMAGE , THE BLACK MAN, THE SON OF AFRICA, THAT I'D PACKED ALL THE ATTRIBUTES I SOUGHT IN MYSELF. From Dreams Of My Father: "THAT HATE HADN'T GONE AWAY," he wrote, BLAMING WHITE PEOPLE,- SOME CRUEL, SOME IGNORANT, sometimes a single face, sometimes just a faceless image of a system claiming power over our lives." From Dreams Of My Father; "There were enough of us on campus to constitute a tribe, and when it came to hanging out many of us chose to function like a tribe, staying close together, traveling in packs," he wrote. "It remained necessary to prove which side you were on, TO SHOW YOUR LOYALTY TO THE BLACK MASSES, TO STRIKE OUT, and name names" From Dreams Of My Father, "I had grown accustomed, everywhere, to SUSPICIONS BETWEEN THE RACES.." Quote from Barack Obama's book, Dreams Of My Father: "The person who made me proudest of all, though, was [half brother] Roy .. He converted to Islam." From 'Dreams of my Father', "In Indonesia, I had spent two years at a Muslim school" "I studied the Koran.." From 'Audacity of Hope: "Lolo (Obama's step father) followed a brand of Islam ...."I looked to Lolo for guidance". From 'The Audacity Of Hope, "I will stand with the Muslims should the political winds shift in an ugly direction." From The Audacity Of Hope, "We are no longer just a Christian nation," "We are also a Jewish nation, a Muslim nation, a Buddhist nation, a Hindu nation, and a nation of nonbelievers."

White people can do all of those things and still get elected. However, a white person would never get enough votes if they did those things. And Obama is not racist. And some of those quotes are not even about race. They are about religion. Moron.
8 :
It is the way of socialism.

First, way to take quotes out of contenxt to spin them to fit your agenda. Second, who says it's okay for blacks to be racist? Traditionally, blacks have had more of a reason to be wary of white individuals for obvious reasons. But the thing is that racism towards white people rarely translates into anything. There were no laws against white inidividuals, whites never had to worry about feeling less than since they dominated every field and made up the majority of the US population. Racism toward minorities actually causes real discrimination. You have to be blind to not be able to see that.

Odd. No racism in any of these quotes. Mentioning one's race isn't racism. Speaking of one's race isn't racism. Talking about how racism affected YOU isn't racism.
