>> To suggest a black candidate for president was born in Africa [AFTER he had to show his birth certificate] of course is racist. Even if it is his OWN BIO, undoubtedly either written by Obama himself or provided to his agent on his own.

When did Romney attack Obama on his birth certificate?

aren't all blacks originally from africa ? didn't Obama and his wife say he was born in Kenya. If you said Romney was born in ireland would that be racist ?

Ted, I think the birther controversy is much ado about nothing. If Obama turns out to be Kenyan-born, I wouldn't consider it a national disgrace. But I'm not going to devalue the "racism" card over it. Otherwise, when actual cases of racism pop up (and there are plenty even on this very thread), I'll still have some say on the matter. By the way, when it comes to race relations, I personally can't think of anything more pathetic than a member of the majority race cry "racism" over and over again just to soothe his own guilt over the issue.
