Vote Here!

And what of the whites that voted for McCain because they didn't want a black man as president? Playing the race card goes both ways.

It kind of seemed to me that you implied that Grace and I voted based on race after we made the historic remarks.

No arguement here...

Indeed, Obama's election is historic. But if race does not matter? WHY is it historic?

Please belive me when I say it... Race has ZERO do do with my choices in life. Z...E...R...O. The FINEST human being I ever knew just happened to be a black guy. My platoon sergeant from my Somalia deployment.

So please, pretty please, do not misunderstand me on this...

Race only matters to make it historic. Once blacks were slaves. Now we have a black president.

Women couldn't vote even until the 1920's. Had McCain/Palin of won, gender would of made it historic.

I would hope race nor gender wasn't the deciding factor in anyone's vote, but that's a false hope. I can just honestly say it wasn't MY deciding factor.
