A Vote Is More Than a Vote
Daughter of Slave Casts Vote, Remembers Struggle
For 109-Year-Old Amanda Jones, a Vote Is More Than a Vote
At 109 years young, Amanda Jones can still remember when the idea of blacks having the right to vote was as far-fetched as the idea of desegregation.

Why the **** would anyone vote for someone based on their skin color rather than their plaform? I understand this is the first time a minority is in play but c'mon, skin color doesn't determine how well someone can lead a country.

Plenty of white people are voting for Obama just to say "Look i voted for a black man, I'm no racist"

Why shouldn't black people vote for blacks because of the colour of the skin, plenty of white people are going to vote white for the exact same reason.
Let's see, in the last 232 years a voter HAD to vote for a white guy, they didn't do it because of race, both candidates were white. Therefore, political ideation was extremely important. Throw Barack Hussein Obama into the mix and suddenly the candidates ideals don't matter anymore and skin color does? "That's right, y'all, lets vote for the brother and stick it to whitey!!!" Worst argument I
ve heard in a long time, yours.

Obama and/or McCain are colorless, they are Politicians,eager only for power, controlled by friends in high places, puppets, they run with the Money, so if anything they are both Green, therefore...only as decent as Lizard Eating Martians, so why humans play this Voting game...i dunno.

Yep, vote for the colored man, no matter what his policies are. Typical.
