Racism and Politics

Common sense should tell you that when it comes to politics race plays very little part, if any at all. If race played a big part in politic, that would mean that everyone that disagreed with any person other then white would be a racist. So that would mean that all politicians are racist. You can't through a dead cat and hit a politicians in either the city, county, state or federal government, that some non-white politician, is not agree with. President Obama policies are what some do not agree, it would not matter if he was of a different color, he is very left for most republicans and some democrats. If Carter and Mondale are correct then the democrats that don't like the health care plans must be racist to, or can they pick and choose. I think that they want to pick and choose. I think that they think it helps with the health care debate, it doesn't, but I think they believe it will swing some votes, it won't, but not a very nice try. Of course they could be trying to help the 49% disapproval before 2012. What every the reason, which there can be no reasoning involved, no one should try to play the race card every time the sun shines. Everybody knows that the U.S. has a President that happens to be black. How his term or terms turn out good, bad or indifference remains to be seen. I doubt, when history looks at his record, as President, race will play any part. President Obama will take his place in history as the first President that was black but will need to depend on his judgment and leadership as to what kind of President he was, just like all others. I am glad that Ex-President Carter and Ex-Presidential Candidate Mondale have something to voice their strong but wrong opinions about but look at their careers. As I have said before there is no racism in politics because they are all the same, POLITICIANS, a breed apart. Some will be called racist and some will not but that depends on who and how they would like the vote to go.
