Away From Obama’s Crowds, Racist Moments

Washington Post: Obama Campaigners Encounter Raw And Surprising Racism As They Push Democratic Frontrunner

(Washingtonpost.com) 
Obama has won 30 of 50 Democratic contests so far, the kind of nationwide electoral triumph no black candidate has ever realized. That he is on the brink of capturing the Democratic nomination, some say, is a testament to how far the country has progressed in overcoming racism and evidence of Obama's skill at bridging divides.

Obama has won five of 12 primaries in which black voters made up less than 10 percent of the electorate, and caucuses in states such as Idaho and Wyoming that are overwhelmingly white. But exit polls show he has struggled to attract white voters who didn't attend college and earn less than $50,000 a year. Today, he and Hillary Clinton square off in West Virginia, a state where she is favored and where the votes of working-class whites will again be closely watched.

For the most part, Obama campaign workers say, the 2008 election cycle has been exhilarating. On the ground, the Obama campaign is being driven by youngsters, many of whom are imbued with an optimism undeterred by racial intolerance. "We've grown up in a different world," says Danielle Ross. Field offices are staffed by 20-somethings who hold positions -- state director, regional field director, field organizer -- that are typically off limits to newcomers to presidential politics.

Gillian Bergeron, 23, was in charge of a five-county regional operation in northeastern Pennsylvania. The oldest member of her team was 27. At Scranton's annual Saint Patrick's Day parade, some of the green Obama signs distributed by staffers were burned along the parade route. That was the first signal that this wasn't exactly Obama country. There would be others.

In a letter to the editor published in a local paper, Tunkhannock Borough Mayor Norm Ball explained his support of Hillary Clinton this way: "Barack Hussein Obama and all of his talk will do nothing for our country. There is so much that people don't know about his upbringing in the Muslim world. His stepfather was a radical Muslim and the ranting of his minister against the white America, you can't convince me that some of that didn't rub off on him.

"No, I want a president that will salute our flag, and put their hand on the Bible when they take the oath of office."

Obama's campaign workers have grown wearily accustomed to the lies about the candidate's supposed radical Muslim ties and lack of patriotism. But they are sometimes astonished when public officials such as Ball or others representing the campaign of their opponent traffic in these falsehoods.

Karen Seifert, a volunteer from New York, was outside of the largest polling location in Lackawanna County, Pa., on primary day when she was pressed by a Clinton volunteer to explain her backing of Obama. "I trust him," Seifert replied. According to Seifert, the woman pointed to Obama's face on Seifert's T-shirt and said: "He's a half-breed and he's a Muslim. How can you trust that?"

Pollsters have found it difficult to accurately measure racial attitudes, as some voters are unwilling to acknowledge the role that race plays in their thinking. But some are not. Susan Dzimian, a Clinton supporter who owns residential properties, said outside a polling location in Kokomo that race was a factor in how she viewed Obama. "I think if it was somebody other than him, I'd accept it," she said of a black candidate. "If Colin Powell had run, I would be willing to accept him."

The previous evening, Dondra Ewing was driving the neighborhoods of Kokomo, looking to turn around voters like Dzimian. Ewing, 47, is a chain-smoking middle school guidance counselor, a black single mother of two and one of the most fiercely vigilant Obama volunteers in Kokomo, which was once a Ku Klux Klan stronghold. On July 4, 1923, Kokomo hosted the largest Klan gathering in history -- an estimated 200,000 followers flocked to a local park. But these are not the 1920s, and Ewing believes she can persuade anybody to back Obama. Her mother, after all, was the first African American elected at-large to the school board in a community that is 10 percent black.

Kokomo, population 46,000, is another hard-hit Midwestern industrial town stung by layoffs. Longtimers wistfully remember the glory years of Continental Steel and speak mournfully about the jobs shipped overseas. Kokomo Sanitary Pottery, which made bathroom sinks and toilets, shut down a couple of months ago and took with it 150 jobs.

Aaron Roe, 23, was mowing lawns at a local cemetery recently, lamenting his $8-an-hour job with no benefits. He had earned a community college degree as an industrial electrician, but learned there was no electrical work to be found for someone with his experience, which is to say none. Politics wasn't on his mind; frustration was. If he were to vote, it would not be for Obama, he said. "I just got a funny feeling about him," Roe said, a feeling he couldn't specify, except to say race wasn't a part of it. "Race ain't nothing," said Roe, who is white. "It's how they're going to help the country."

The Aaron Roes are exactly who Dondra Ewing was after: people with funny feelings.

At the Bradford Run Apartments, she found Robert Cox, a retiree who spent 30 years working for an electronics manufacturer making computer chips. He was in his suspenders, grilling shish kebab, which he had never eaten. "Something new," Cox said, recommended by his son who was visiting from Colorado.

Ewing was selling him hard on Obama. "There are more than two families that can run the United States of America," she said, "and their names aren't Bush and Clinton."

"Yeah, I know, I know," Cox said, remaining noncommittal.

He opened the grill and peeked at the kebabs. "It's not his race, because I got real good friends and all that," Cox continued. "If anything would keep him from getting elected, it would be his name. It might turn off some older people."

Like him?

"No, older than me," said Cox, 66.

Ewing kept talking, until finally Cox said, "Probably Obama," when asked directly how he would vote.

As she walked away, Ewing said: "I think we got him."

But truthfully, she wasn't feeling so sure.

We don''t need Pennsylvania, Indiana or West Virginia. Bunch of hillbillies anyway who are simply out of touch with mainstream America. The Obama Shuffle will steamroll lil'' missy(Clinton)and grandpa(McCain)without these clowns. Like America really wants a woman handling two wars and an old man napping through critical intelligence briefings--NOT!!! Those hillbillies will know who their DADDY is real soon.

[riptide213]

Barack Obama is more of an oasis of optimism and less of a mirage of same despair in the apathy desert that is American politics.

Like opinions every citizen has a single vote of equal worth.

Political candidate scrutiny is a good thing.

I challenge anybody to discover a thriving politician even in the United States to be free from any dubious link to something at sometime that would not offend or aggrieve someone somewhere.

Is Obama perfect no way. Can he learn more sure.

Can he realize enhanced understanding of all Americans concerns no doubt.

Perhaps for the first time in a long time ordinary voters feel drawn to a candidate like Obama because their one and only valued vote could actually make a noticeable compass heading direction change in national politics.

Voters believe that a better or positive outcome is possible even when there is some evidence to the contrary. Eureka.

Please exercise your right to debate and vote for who ever you want.

Respect the rights of others to vote and freely debate for their candidate.

Rejoice in Americas hard won freedoms to cast your vote with bona fide unfettered choice and to critically debate your choice for change openly.

Vile candidate or voter bashing with malice is a cowards folly on the low road to anarchy.

[dante805]

Here come all the America is Racist stories from NYT and WPO and Time and Newsweek. Obama cant win the White vote so we all are racist - 90% of blacks vote in lock step for Obama - thats more racists - at least 40% of White DEMs are voting for Obamination. The self hating White Liberals need to push the RACIST theme to make us all feel bad about not voting for a Black President. Too bad he''s more LIBERAL than Kennedy and Schumer and Reid and Pelosi and Boxer and Durbin.

[briannorwood]

A lot has been made in this election about the "age" divide between Obama and Clinton. I think this is code-speak for "race" divide.

The bad news is that there is still a lot of blatent (and not so blatent) racism in this country.

The good news is that among the younger generation, they seem to have put that garbage behind them. Perhaps those white, hardworking, undereducated, underemployed folks Hillary has been all too eager to exploit could learn a lesson or two from them!

[jack3213]

Riptide213_ Nice post. On a differant note- does anyone think perhaps the Clintons have set the ball in motion for those who are making themselves known -more now than ever- to show the racist card towards Obama? I would not put it past them- it was them who said " We are hangin on just in case something happens" Someone should step up and put those Clintons in their right place- like jail.

[trishab4]

CBS: "The first person I encountered was like, ''I''ll never vote for a black person,'' " recalled Ross, who is white and just turned 20. "People just weren''t receptive."

-I wish those who said so were pretty old, I mean really old and that racism would die with them, pretty soon, for ever!

[charisma9949]

Oh my god! What is the matter with us? The ignorance and prejudice still existing in this country is mind-boggling and distressing. When I read remarks on these blogs blasting Michelle Obama for saying she''s proud of her country for the first time, I think to myself after reading this article, well, she may be proud but I''M not so proud, and I''m white. No, after reading this article I''m disgusted and dismayed and not proud at all and it doesn''t give me much hope for the human race that at this point in time we still have such stupidity and ignorance to contend with. If we humans can''t accept each other within our own country it doesn''t bode well for the concept of peace on earth. At this moment I am very ashamed of being an American.

[rowdytexan2]

Whine, whine, whine, whine...he who spouts racism merely continues to promote it he''s worn it like a shield in this campaign against anybody who criticized him.

And then his own supporters compare Hillary Clinton to Fatal Attraction, call her a monster for wanting to win the nomination, and all the male bigots in the US get up and applaud, as well as the pigs in our news media. And then those male bigots are the very ones that get up and call you a racist anytime you say anything critical of Obama the Scamma.

Truth is the pansy Obama needs to be called on for his corruption, not his race. But nobody seems to want to. They just want to live on dreams of purty words they fell in love with. Too bad they''ve been duped.

[bfjones666]

The good thing is that this campaign is bringing in a lot of young people who actually do think people should be judged by their character and actions and not just skin color. As the dead-enders who think race should be a factor in out lives die off, we as a country will be better off for it. I hope this election is a turning point for this country. It hurt me to read about what Jackie Robinson had to go through to integrate baseball and to read that we as a country have not progressed beyond that kind of thinking is very sad.

[hhroams]

Hillary is promoting racism in her campaign. Saying that Obama can''t get white working class votes in a general election is a racism theory. To some extent I agree with her theory, but don''t think it will cause him to lose the election. I''m sure that the racist fringe will vote for McCain in the general election, as he has been soliciting the white born-again evangelical christian conservatives(racists) votes, and there are lot of so-called Democrats that are carbon copies of the white born-again evangelical christian conservatives(racists) Republicans. The only difference is the label not the content.

[b-easy63]

We all know how racists Hillary supporters can be. It is one thing that led me to the conclusion that there is not that much difference between Democrats and Republicans after all. Not in how they really review other races, not in what they are willing to do or say to get elected. Not in the reasons they will never vote for another race. Maybe when RowdyTexan, or croft, or Tracy Morgan, etc gets here, they can tell us their take/view/defence on why racism is a great position for supporting Hillary.

This is great for the country, it tells many of us who have been deaf, dumb and blind to still rampant racism, just how much it is NOT gone. Time for the blinders to come off--time to recognize one more reason why God may not be pleased with our country or our behavior.

There''s a difference between not voting for Obama for political reasons and not voting for him because he''s black. If you''re not voting for him because he''s black, then that''s racist. It''s not that difficult.

Another Texan says if you want to talk about corruption all you have to do is look at Hillary or John McCain. Whitewater Creek and the Keating Five were not imaginary happenings. One of John''s current advisors is(was until yesterday) a lobbyist for the Myanmar dictators, how much foreign money to he bring into McCain''s campaign coffers?

[granolaboy1]

I will vote for Ralph Nader because Barak Obama supports H-1B. Studies have shown that you cannot even get an interview in Silicon Valley if your name sounds too Black. Meanwhile, Americans are training people from overseas in basic computer science.

There can be no high tech labor shortage when such a large portion of your domestic labor pool is discrimnated against. Obama has either sold out or has not looked closely enough at this issue.

I''ve read some of RowdyTexan2''s earlier remarks about Obama. She is a racist--and if we go by some of her remarks, she is old, bitter and a feminist too. Those who hate or won''t even consider Obama based on his skin color are not reachable--but like others have pointed out--one good thing is that they are old. One day, they will die out, like and the horrible virus of racism will eventually die out or go to a really low infection rate, also.

[pepperwood2]

Good story & point made. Unfortunately this is true with a lot of closet or back door racists still remain among the Old Guard Democrats.

The Clintons themselves are and have played this card thoughout the campaign. They thrive on playing the polictics of personal destruction & made a fortune by doing it. The overall lying, dishonestly, cheating, & scheming you get from them at a bonus????

The exit polls can tell you a lot. Hillary is expecting a big win in WVA because of the large white population that are catholic in name only, senior, blue collar & low income. Its sort of an inconvenient truth. This has been exploited by the Clintons over & over again because it works. Sad to say, I''d like to proven I''m wrong but, I''m afraid, the WVA will only confirm this story.

The Penna Primary shaped up to be the same thing. The Clinton, Rendell, Ferarro, Spitzer & Hafer Crowd. It becomes very clear that the White Catholic segment are being exploited, along with the senior citizens, white blue collar & low income groups. The typically stalwarts of the Clinton supporters. Its tragically sad as most ot these voters show know better but are in denial & they know not what they do.

Together we now have an opportunity to work to change this sad scenario. Our Country, & The People deserve better than The Clinton Old Guard Racists Polictics. Yes we CAN do it!

You are right--all 3 mainstream candidates have sold out to illegal labor, outsourcing and to legal immigration insourcing geared to hurt our jobs. I will be voting for Obama--because Nader has no chance. ONe way or another, one of the mainstream candidates will hold office. When I was younger, I made protests votes, but in the past 6 or 7 elections, I have wanted my vote to help choose the next President, not simply voice my ire with the system. One helps to shape our destiny...the other is just giving a finger to the eventual destiny. Glad you are voting--my choice is the candidate most likely to be controlled and influenced by the public--the equation does not get any more basic than that, for me.

[endtimes72]

It would be very naive to think that racisism doesn''t exist because we all know it''s alive and kicking. To me racism is a disease because it can be spreaded and it is contagious and has and can eventually lead to death. I even know people who are so called religious, but on judgement day when you''re asked why were you racist what will your response be? The only answer will be an excuse. The good news is--is that racism is curable. The bad news is a lot of theses diseased idiots don''t want to be cured.

If a lot of Clinton voters are voting for because they don''t or will not vote for a black man then what is going to happen if they end up on the same ticket and she is the VP? Would you vote democratic or would vote racist?

[singingrick]

What if you are voting for him just because you are black, and Obama is Black(part)?

What would you call that?



Posted by dumbshun at 09:11 AM : May 13, 2008


Voting for him just because he is black is preferential treatment--the reason it is NOT racist, are that the same people who vote for him, by and large say they will support Hillary if she is the eventual nominee--that means the choice is deeper to blacks than color--conversely many of those who vote for Hillary due to her being white, say they will either vote for McCain (another white) or not vote at all if Obama is elected. If they are voting based on color and not voting or not electing someone in their own party based on color--then that IS racist--because their votes are based not on making a first for a race in history--but on a negative--judging and reacting to someone negatively based on skin color or difference--that is racist--the point is the negativity, not simply the color choice.

[Lai K W]

It''s time that BO recognize that his racist approach to primary will cost him lots more than he imagine.

He won''t stand a chance unless the Clintons show mercy and forgiveness on this nerd. Until recently, the party understands that they are sitting on fire which cost them many delegates of them seats in congress and senate. Americans won''t be fooled for long.

[mkbjon]

It is a fact of life here in America. You are bound to run into someone who hates you without bothering to find out anything about you other than what they see on the surface. As a black woman I have been called names by people just passing by me when I was minding my own business. Sometimes even when I smiled at them, I would get called a dirty name or get a dirty look. I also know white people who have gotten the same reaction from black people. It''s disheartening, and always somewhat of a shock to feel pure hatred from a stranger that you bear no ill will towards. Sometimes it seems like we are losing the battle against discrimination, but look how far we have gotten. Women and minorities would have had virtually no chance of being in this position 50 years ago. There is no rolling back of this progress, in spite of the hate-riddled segment of the population that constantly strives to widen the racial divide. This genie is NOT going to be put back in the bottle, and eventually there WILL be a woman as President, and there WILL be a black President, and no amount of hate is going to derail that train. When racists try to bring you down, the best reaction is to look at your friends, laugh and give each other a hug! They can only rob you of your happiness if you let them. When they find out that they can''t, they slither away.

What You Reap is What You Sow -

Obama doesn''t mind his connections and friendships to some of the worst bigots in America - BOTH White and Black. KKK Byrd is on record saying he''d never serve alongside a Black American in time of war, and he never has.

And funnily enough, Obama, coward and race hypocrite he is, has never served either.

Not to mention his "Uncle Jere" - who, if he were white would be exactly like Byrd or David Duke.

But the guy blames "Racism" on his White granny or on "Reagan Democrats" - not the BLACK and WHITE Fascists who eagerly join his camp.

Stepin'' Fetchit Obama - totally unfit to serve, except maybe Janitor at the White House.

"Obama has not spoken much about racism during this campaign. He has sought to emphasize connections among Americans rather than divisions. He shrugged off safety concerns that led to early Secret Service protection and has told black senior citizens who worry that racists will do him harm: Don''t fret. Earlier in the campaign, a 68-year-old woman in Carson City, Nev., voiced concern "

The REAL RACISTS are the McVets and "singinricks" here - who''''d vote for a Black Nazi because he''''s Black - and has Fascist, Anti-America views. Or is willing to surrender to his namesake.

Absolutely folks. Those 935 LIES posted online are really TRUTHs... Saddam had NUKES and they were pointed right out you and me... Scared enough?

ROFLMAO Now everyone stand and sing it out... we burn the cross tonight!! Sieg Heil Grand Wizard!!

We do need white working class people, all people - we are all Americans and we need to pull together. Let''s give it a chance. The alternative hasn''t worked out very well, has it?

What''s wrong with the GD word when our constitution is just a GD piece of paper (dixit Bush) ?

And by the way, Hamas DOES support Obama.

What is that supposed to mean? The last I checked, Hama is not a voting block in America. The KKK supports the GOP? Does that mean the GOP is the KKK. People outside of this country can support whomever they want, it means nothing. I know many Germans and other Europeans that hate Bush. It means nothing. Get a grip morons, and stop repeating *** that does not mean anything. You racist neo-cons are pathetic.

McVet, McVet, you hate mongering fool. You wouldn''t know a corrupt government regime if it hit you in the face. Suppose someone living in China or North Korea or Myanmar or Zimbabwe read one of your insane, inane, repetitive post with your comparisons of the government of America to the Nazis. They would think you had lost your mind (which you have). You''re just a big bag of wind. Go live in the mountains with the other survivilist nuts.
