it is true that a lot of white people in the northern states of america voted for barak obama because of hardcore liberalism swaying towards positive discrimination with ventures towards making a black man as president of the united states..but so what, when you look at the alternatives barak is the best candidate by far on either side and unlike his opposite number Mcain he has longevity to last a potential of two full terms and furthermore stands by his ideals...

What a truly brave and great American Richard Trumka is!!! He is the true definition of a "mverick". This is one of the great speeches in American history. How very inspiring. Obama should consider Richard Trumka for Secretary of Labor in his cabinet, or Mr. Trumka should consider running for US Senator.

What field are you in? If you are in any working class job you have benefitted from the Unions even if you have never been a member.

As entire election process has NOTHING to do with race - It has to do with Brings the Nation together in strength - Together, educate out selves, and build the U.S.A. ...Help them whom help them selves - AS WELL

Total Leftist Ignorance. Because liberals, democrats don't understand 1) monetary policy 2) austrian economics 3) keynesian fallacies 4) F. A. Hayek and Hazlitts criticism of Keynes 5) Inflation 6) Federal Reserve 7) Constitution 8) the Austrian theory of the Business Cycle 8) how unions destroy companies and governments 9) the multi-trillion dollar illegal immigration cost to the United States 10) and many other things, the liberals MUST THEREFORE define arguments based on race and class.

Our forefathers created America to leave religious persecution from Britian. Democracy is open to majority vote. Why is this not a good thing?

ok 12.5%?? wtf? yeah his race traitor mother should be ashamed of hooking up with a filthy mongrel african, and i'll stop using the term black when the media does and all the blacks in america do. he has yet to produce a valid birth certificate, which should be easy for any american to do, he has duel citizenship in indonesia..i would hardly call his church in chicago christians, they are just as evil and racist as any other hate group out there.ill use another term for him then.Socialist?Commy?

Listen to the speach you moron. He didn't say vote for him because he his is black, he said that the colour of his skin should not be a reason NOT to vote for him.As for this Kenyan-born Black Muslim Marxist rubbish, you score 12.5% since Obama is of mixed race, born in Hawaii, Christian, and far from a Marxist (do you even know what that term means?)
