If a Black Republican had done that, what would the Black Democrats be calling him?

I know my comments will get quite a rise out of some of you. However, you do know that being black in a black community, neighborhood does not necessarily mean the black person is the best choice? Having had a few managerial positions myself, I know what it's like to be torn between giving a position to a black or non-black. First consideration are they qualified, is there potential even if the qualifications are somewhat lacking, personal/professional history? It's not just that simple. Lest we forget there are several black out there who would love to see the Pres. fail as well as the tea-baggers. and most of Congress. Remember that "preacher" up in Harlem?? that wants him impeached or worse. Too often we don't know the real story behind issues like this because the media is not willing to tell the whole story, it will eventually come out.

I don't know that the Dems' would be calling him anything, but the Repubs would certainly be happy.

Did we vote for all the previous Presidents because they were half black as well? or is your racists brain telling you that no blacks voted in past Presidential elections. I'm sure that is your racist logic.
