The More Obama F's Up, The More I like Him!

The more I hear these "mistakes" that Obama says, the more I like him!

My goodness, finally somebody who understand that racism has not gone away. Somebody who understands that when people don't feel empowered, they begin picking on others or fighting for non-issues. I was thinking of voting for Ralph Nader, but the more I hear Obama's true thoughts, not the facade he has to put on for the majority of racist disempowered Americans, the more I like him. My vote for him would be solidified if he were to completely tear off that mask of his, but unfortunately he has to play the game if he has any hope of being president.

Here is Obama keepin' it real:

"I can no more disown [Jeremiah Wright] than I can disown the black community. I can no more disown him than I can my white grandmother – a woman who helped raise me, a woman who sacrificed again and again for me, a woman who loves me as much as she loves anything in this world, but a woman who once confessed her fear of black men who passed by her on the street, and who on more than one occasion has uttered racial or ethnic stereotypes that made me cringe."

"the point I was making was not that my grandmother harbors any racial animosity. She doesn’t. But she is a typical white person who, you know, if she sees somebody on the street that she doesn’t know, there is a reaction that has been bred into our experiences that don’t go away and sometimes come out in the wrong way."

"It's not surprising, then, [some working class voters] get bitter, they cling to guns or religion or antipathy to people who aren't like them or anti-immigrant sentiment or anti-trade sentiment as a way to explain their frustrations."

There has been a small "political flare-up because I said something that everybody knows is true, which is that there are a whole bunch of folks in small towns in Pennsylvania, in towns right here in Indiana, in my hometown in Illinois, who are bitter,"

"So I said, well you know, when you're bitter you turn to what you can count on. So people, they vote about guns, or they take comfort from their faith and their family and their community. And they get mad about illegal immigrants who are coming over to this country."
