If President Obama was White, do you think he would receive the same votes? And do you think it would affect possible 2nd term?
This is a spinoff of a post about if he was dark skinned.
Quoting anity:
Race has nothing to do with my reasoning for not wanting him in the white house in the first place.
*I* Agree, I am wanting to see if others agree or disagree too :)
BUT to some race does have a LOT to do with it (from hearing this irl)
Eeek, misread that, but I never wanted him in the white house. I just agree race has nothing to do with it.
There...I said it.
I did not vote for him and it had nothing to do with race
Quoting LiesLiesLies:
I think he got a lot more votes initially because he was black.
There...I said it.
Honestly I don't think he would. I have heard TOO MANY people say they only voted for him because he was black.
