And like what goes along with my other posts is that, a lot of people who don't normally vote (a lot of blacks, no offence) are actually voting. Which brings my previous point in that they are all voting for Obama just because he is black too and they want to make that change to make him the first black president (which in my opinion will not end up good). At least it's gotten more voters out and participating.
My dad showed me this thing on the computer... This guy goes up to random black people and asks who are they voting for and they say Obama, and then the interviewer asks is it because of he is pro-life, and wants to stay in Iraq. and they answer yes. Those are McCain's things, NOT Obama's. Yet they are so out of it they don't know and just vote for the "fellow black person". and the last question asked was about if they would be fine with Palin as vice president. And they answer yes. They did that to several people and its up on youtube i think.

We are discussing how to deal constructively with an obsessional compulsion with politics in general that have likely been aggravated by the electoral news coverage in the US. I don't recommend going public with your personal and political viewpoint that you've touched on, as it's not very conducive to polite society and most people will find it triggering and provoking.
If you want to be actively engaged in the conversation, we welcome your suggestions. Have you any ideas yourself on the issue?
