ASK YOUR SELF THIS...

What if the Obamas had paraded five children across the stage, following the debate, including a three month-old infant and an unwed, pregnant teenage daughter?
 
What if John McCain was a former president of the Harvard Law Review?
 
What if Barack Obama finished fifth from the bottom of his college graduating class?
 
What if McCain had only married once, and Obama was a divorcee?
 
What if Obama had met his second wife in a bar and had a long affair while he was still married to his 1st wife; whom she was disfigured from a car accident?
 
What if Michelle Obama was the wife who not only became addicted to pain killers but also acquired them illegally through her charitable organization?
 
What if Cindy McCain graduated from Harvard?
 
What if Obama had been a member of the Keating Five?
(The Keating Five were five United States Senators accused of corruption in 1989, igniting a major political scandal as part of the larger Savings and Loan crisis of the late 1980s and early 1990s.)
 
What if Obama couldn't read from a teleprompter?
 
What if Obama was the one who had military experience that included discipline problems and a record of crashing seven planes?
 
What if Obama was the one who was known to publicly display a serious anger management problem?
 
What if Michelle Obama's family had made their money from beer distribution?
 
 
You could easily add to this list. If these questions reflected a reality, if the tables were turned, do you really believe the election numbers would be as close as they are?This is what racism does. It covers up, rationalizes and minimizes qualities in one candidate and emphasizes negative characteristics in another when there is a color difference.
 
And, think of this - the candidates' educational backgrounds:
 
Barack Obama:
Columbia University - B.A. Political Science with a Specialization in International Relations.
Harvard - Juris Doctor (J.D.) Magna Cum Laude / President of the Harvard Law Review, 1990
 
Joseph Biden:
University of Delaware - B.A. in History and B.A. in Political Science.
Syracuse University College of Law - Juris Doctor (J.D.)
 
----------------------------
 
John McCain:
United States Naval Academy - Class rank: 894 of 899
 
Sarah Palin:
Hawaii Pacific University - 1 semester
North Idaho College - 2 semesters - general study
University of Idaho - 2 semesters - journalism
Matanuska-Susitna College - 1 semester
University of Idaho - 3 semesters - B.A. in Journalism
 
 
 Education isn't everything, but this is about the two highest offices in the land as well as our standing in the world.
 
Oh, but wait... who'll be more entertaining to have a beer with?
(To which you'll most likely never will. They prey upon your emotions, not anything else)
 
You make the call.
Now, spread the word.

HAiDER: As always "my friend" your points are well plotted. Where as my points sound like the rants of a Republican rat.
