Default Black President, Double Standard: Why White Liberals Are Abandoning Obama

Electoral racism in its most naked, egregious and aggressive form is the unwillingness of white Americans to vote for a black candidate regardless of the candidate’s qualifications, ideology or party. This form of racism was a standard feature of American politics for much of the twentieth century. So far, Barack Obama has been involved in two elections that suggest that such racism is no longer operative. His re-election bid, however, may indicate that a more insidious form of racism has come to replace it.

The 2004 Illinois Senate race between Obama and Alan Keyes, two African-Americans, was a unique test of the persistence of old-fashioned electoral racism. For a truly committed electoral racist, neither Obama nor Keyes would have been acceptable—regardless of policy positions, biography or qualification—because both were black.

One way to determine how many people felt this way is to measure the “roll-off.” In presidential election years, a small percentage vote for the president, but then “roll off” by not casting ballots for state and local offices. A substantial increase in roll-off—larger than usual numbers of voters who picked John Kerry or George Bush but declined to choose between Obama and Keyes—would have been a measure of the unwillingness of some to vote for any black candidate. I tested this in 2004 and found no increase, statistical or substantive, in roll-off in Illinois. Faced with two black candidates, white voters were willing to choose one of them.

The 2008 general election was another referendum on old-fashioned electoral racism—this time among Democratic voters. The long primary battle between Hillary Clinton and Obama had the important effect of registering hundreds of thousands of Democrats. By October 2008, it was clear that Obama could lose the general election only if a substantial portion of registered Democrats in key states failed to turn out or chose to cross party lines. For Democrats to abandon their nominee after eight years of Bush could be interpreted only as an act of electoral racism.

Not only did white Democratic voters prove willing to support a black candidate; they overperformed in their repudiation of naked electoral racism, electing Obama with a higher percentage of white votes than either Kerry or Gore earned. No amount of birther backlash can diminish the importance of these two election results. We have not landed on the shores of postracial utopia, but we have solid empirical evidence of a profound and important shift in America’s electoral politics.

Still, electoral racism cannot be reduced solely to its most egregious, explicit form. It has proved more enduring and baffling than these results can capture. The 2012 election may be a test of another form of electoral racism: the tendency of white liberals to hold African-American leaders to a higher standard than their white counterparts. If old-fashioned electoral racism is the absolute unwillingness to vote for a black candidate, then liberal electoral racism is the willingness to abandon a black candidate when he is just as competent as his white predecessors.

Now that a nigger is in the White House though, I imagine that other niggers will be calling liberal Whites who want to vote for Hillary 'racist'!

It is going to be fun to watch liberal Whites, who look down on people who talk hard about Race like me and other White Nationalists, get hoisted on their own petard!

So racist apes with weapons at voting booths telling White voters to vote for Obongo "if they know what's good for them" is not "electoral racism in its most naked, egregious and aggressive form"?

Well, FUCK YOU NIGGER!!!

Look at this racist, mystery meat chimp:

Melissa Harris-Perry



Looks like cop killer Mumia Abu-Jamal on female hormones.

Instead of these racist mystery meats spreading social marxist bullshit, why don't they just fucking leave and form their own country? Why? Because it would invariably be a Third World shithole for which they would blame da White man.

Here is just a start of what a Democrat was promised contrasted with what they got.

Closing Guantanomo Bay in the first year. It is open 2 years later

Drug Re-importation and collective bargaining on drug prices. They got none of that and instead pharmaceutical patents were extended 7 years.

"Peace." Obama won the "Nobel Peace Prize." America has never sold more military equipment and small arms. The White House supports Israel even after Israel shot and killed a U.S. citizen delivering aid to Palestine. The Pentagon still has a budget in excess of 700 billion dollars per year and the President's biggest military foreign policy success was sending tens of thousands of military members and contractors to Afghanistan, even as that was is deeply unpopular, particularly with the Left.

Economic recover and 7 percent unemployment. Here is what was tried.Trillions in TARP, quantitative easing (1.5 trillion dollars in money printing), unemployment benefit extensions to 99 weeks, 850 billion dollar American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (Stimulus Package I) that didn't do shit, so now he wants to do Stimulus Package II which would cost another 500 billion. Just for starters. And we've got a U3 of about 10 and a U6 over 15 percent. All the pretty speeches in the world don't make up for the fact that the president helped create and pass trillions in "stimulus" and the poor motherfuckin' Obama voter is still out of work.

I don't see why anybody would support him, unless they were some connected person getting money, like a banker, or a "Green Jobs" scam artist.

"President Obama has experienced a swift and steep decline in support among white Americans—from 61 percent in 2009 to 33 percent now. I believe much of that decline can be attributed to their disappointment that choosing a black man for president did not prove to be salvific for them or the nation."


Noooo it can't be that he made our debt skyrocket and destroyed our economy... its because he's black.
