I asked about the substance of what he says.

Try reading more slowly before you respond with knee jerk invective.

Try again now.
Quote:
So explain to us what his "substance" is... Explain to us what skills he has that qualifies him as POTUS. Explain what experience he has that qualifies him as POTUS. Lay it out in black and white (I'm conservative, that's how we like to hear things), just what exactly is that qualifies him for POTUS. Popularity does cut it. Eloquence isn't enough. Style is meaningless. You think that rhetoric is all we have to go on and that's pretty freaking sad. Having a good speech-writer does not qualify someone for POTUS, experience, skills, abilities, proven track record - these are the kind of things concrete things people should be looking for. So could you please show us where these concrete, proveable things can be found in Sen. Obama???

The original post from FS discussing qualifications and substance...
I can follow, can you?
And I'm not getting into a discussion about why I am voting for Obama...it's personal. There is nothing that I could offer that would change your mind , anyway, so move on. You're not my friend...you're just some conservative Obama hater, on the screen. Bother someone else that might give a care.

You are a "relic of the past". You're going the way of the dodo...heck, you might even be a dodo.
The only truth you spoke was that I am, indeed, a bona fide "liberal"...I think conservatism serves only the rich, and the powerful, and keeps them in power, while finding ways of excusing themselves from the taxation that the average American endures. Elitism at its' worst.
You keep talking about me as if you know me....I assure you, you don't.
And I don't know you...and am happy because of it. Move around.
Find a racist comment I have ever made. I've posted here, at Hardcore Politics, Whistlestoppers, Debate Politics and Free Conservatives (to name a few). Feel free to dig as deeply as you'd like in any of these forums and find a racist comment I've made. The only racist in this discussion is yourself. You have assumed that I'm white and applied your own bigotted opinion of me based on nothing more than that. I haven't said one thing that addresses Sen. Obama's race. I could care less about his race, with the exception of being amazed that racists like you consider it to be something that makes him more worthy of the office of POTUS than a white man. YOUR the one who brought up race trying to make yourself into a victim and me into a victimizer. You'r the one creating a environment of self-victimization, one that does more harm to blacks than any supposed attitude of "white privilege". You're your own worst enemy. You are a bigot and a racist.

You know what I've noticed...is that methinks ye doth protest too much...meaning that the ones calling other folks "racist" and getting "bent out of shape" are usually the ones with "the problem". The publishers of my first book of poetry, are a husband and wife improv team, both "white", who first saw my potential as a writer...I doubt that they would have published me, if they knew I harbored the slightest prejudice. I grew up, spending nights over "white friends' houses", and them over mine...I was the first black pledge at Phi Kappa Theta Fraternity at Univ. of Houston, in 1971...hardly racist on my part. My partner is Caucasian/Arabic mix...so what the funk are you talking about?
The fact that Obama is the first black man to actually have a real shot at the White House, is nothing if not historic and remarkable...
If you weren't a racist, you might agree...you see, up until this point, all presidents have been "white men"...so you might want to take that under advisement, instead of crying "foul". I never heard such 'whining" in all my life.
Geez. I'll bet you're just the life of the party....in a room, by yourself.
Obama's race is actually inconsequential...it's only important to people that make race an issue....he's got so much more going for him...intelligence, charisma, youthfulness, and promise....just because you fail to see it or to acknowledge it, does not mean that it does not exist..it does.
I am no victim, sir....I pay my taxes...I work as best as I can...people seem to like my music and my writing, and I'm able to make somewhat of a living behind it, honestly. I must say, you know more about me, than I of you...why don't you tell us what your claim to fame is?

And you can hardly speak to me on "black issues"...so, please, restrain yourself. Talk about that which you are certain of...which I suspect, is very little. And calm down...you're going have a conclusion. Really.

Well for your information, my publishers hardly suffer from poor eyesight or from lack of judgment...in fact they are doing quite well...they have a "state-of-the-art" theater in West Houston, and are busy "taking numbers"...see for yourself:


Corporate Training Improv Houston



Uh, what was it that you said was your claim to fame? Oh, that's right, you didn't say...no need to feel ashamed...not everyone can be accomplished....at least, you have this forum.

Perhaps, it's that I'm so important you feel the need to comment on my every post. No. Just making sure you don't cross the line.................again. Sugar.
Oh, guess the cat's got your tongue, about my publishers...did you check out their website...they kinda got it 'going on"....I sold out of my 7th edition, waiting to finish up my 2nd, an e-book, interactive, with audio and visual components...kinda cool, don't you think?
What did you say that you do?
