And I have to say that I was disgusted with the American white-folk who were saying they wouldn't vote for him purely because of his skin colour!!
That being said it also
disgusted me that black American who voted for him on the basics of his skin tone and not his polices.
Yeah, I did think of that too.
It disappointed me, but didn't really disgust me coz they wanted change more than anything, and to finally put an end to all this raciest crap, and they weren't being totally disrespectful towards white Americans (or at least, the ones I saw anyways), where as the white Americans were saying all sorts of things about black Americans, including remarks about terroism.
It actually shocked me how much America still has racism issues. And just how many of those Americans don't even think there's anything wrong with being racist!
I don't know alot about politics, so all I really had to go on was intuition, and through that, I always hoped Obama would win.
