OBAMA!!! It is about time! I have never been republican, democrat, green, or an independent, but I have always been pro change! I am tired of rich white men that rely on racist and bigoted tendencies to win an election. I am a white mexican american or a mexican white american and I am proud to have been involved in this election. I just watched McCain's speech and as the camera panned through the crowd I noticed few if any black faces. That says everything about America. I also noticed that Arkansas, Louisiana, Tennessee, Mississippi, Alabama, Kentucky, South Carolina, and Georgia were red states. Does anyone notice a line in the sand? Thank God for Florida! I live in Arkansas and even though Obama won I feel like my vote was lost in a sea of the hateful and the uninformed. The family that raised me is the white side of my race. My family is a racist and bigoted family. My grandmother asked me who I was going to vote for and I said nothing. She then asked "You're not going to vote for that n_____ are you?". This is the 21st century and my grandma is still using the "n" word. I am greatly ashamed of my family and it is not just my grandma. I am a mixed child in a racist white family and they think they accept me. I argued a point once about being accepting of other races and I reminded my aunt that I was Mexican American and she said "But you were raised white!". Seriously?! That woman didn't raise me and she knows nothing about raising a mixed race child. As far as it goes with being a human being and accepting of every other human being, I raised myself!
I am tired of white America. What is so weird is that my white family works in the real world with multiple races and they act totally different at work. Cowards! If you have the balls, SAY WHAT YOU WANT TO SAY! You won't though because you know deep down that it is wrong! There is no reasoning for southern white people not voting for Obama. There is Hate though. They do or say anything to try and explain their own hatred and bigotry and avoid that awkward conversation about how backwards they are.
I am a Mixed Race American living in Arkansas and I hate the way my family is. I want a change and I want it now!
