Who Will Win?

You accused WD of referencing Obama's alleged ancestry by talking about African countries; that's just plain ridiculous.

Um, did you even read the explanation I wrote?

Given that we are discussing Bush vs. Gore, I don't see how Obama would even be an issue; you referenced it, not WD. Yes, picking Kenya probably wasn't the best idea, but I don't think it was a jab at Obama: just an unfortunate coincidence.

I'm not accusing him of any of those things you are accusing me of accusing him of. He wrote "Kenyan-Type Country." Of all the corrupt African nations that have been in the news for the last 40 years due to civil war and tribal-like mentality warfare, he uses Kenya, a country that does not at all fall into this category, as his example. I was implying that since he already doesn't like Obama, that was the reason why he incorrectly used Kenya as his example. :S?

Just so you know, Kenya is a perfect example. Read the following article: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2007%E2%80 ... yan_crisis


Now, I hate when these threads turn unpleasant, so let's stop this debate. It's WD's right to fight it if he wants, I'm gonna leave the issue.

My reasoning if you weren't able to figure it out was:

1. Obama is an ethnic Kenyan.
2. WD does not like Obama, as we can all directly see in some of the posts he has made on this forum.
3.

We may as well digress to a 3rd world Kenyan-Type Country and let the strongest Militia faction who murders the most people declare himself Supreme Commander and rule our land.

Kenya does not partake in such activities to determine its president, unlike other African countries that actaully do have feuding warlords.
4. Kenyan-Type Country = indirect reference to Obama + let the strongest Militia faction who murders the most people declare himself Supreme Commander and rule our land = indirect reference to unappealing policies
5. Those two things together represents WD's dislike for the Obama administration, which I pointed out as "a weak jab" because it was at the cost of misrepresenting Kenya as a barbaric country.

Regardless if it was even a jab or not, WD still doesn't like Obama in the end.

Last time I checked, Bush and Gore aren't running in the 2012 Presidential Election, which is what this thread is about, that is who will win it, so me mentioning Obama is on-topic.

...except Mwai Kibaki didn't kill a bunch of people to become the president of Kenya.

Ok, my last comment on the er.

I disagree with your conclusion.

Perhaps I was overzealous in my thinking you were calling out racism/prejudice, but in general, I am so sick of hearing people called racists for disliking Obama.

I am sorry if I was too hasty in judging your opinion.

And I hope you feel the same way about me. But like I said, although I like to stand up whenever I think something wrong is being done, it's really more WD's place than mine.

Heh, it's quite alright. I might have been a little presumptuous myself.

Are we debating whether or not Obama is from Kenya?

How quickly the discussion derails to this nonesense. No wonder our country is circling the bowl.

WD doesn't like Obama! WD doesn't like Obama! It's safe to say that Millions of people don't like him.

Amazing...I said Kenyan-type and a knucklehead thinks I linked it purposely to Obama I wasn't even thinking about his heritage. It was the first country that popped in my head. I could have just as easily said Uganda..In fact, to quell confusion, lets just say 'Uganda'...that country was pretty [m'kay] up too in the past at times. Probably still is.

For the record, some of my good friends are black. A few lean right a few lean left, but they are all good people. I'm not a 'racist'. Hell, I dislike his 'white-half' too! My feelings have nothing to do with skin color, and he 'may' be a nice guy. It's his philosophy, personal beliefs, and lack of strong (or any) leadership that I cannot stand. He just doesn't know what he's doing...He bows to British, Saudi and Japanese Royalty which is a 'submissive' gesture announcing to the world that the U.S. is 'inferior' to them. He immediately set the U.S. in a weakened bargaining position by doing that. He's an Amateur. Clinton even said it in private during the 2008 campaign, and he is right.
