"Obama is loved because he's 'not an old white man.'"
Ninjap00, you do realize that the previous 43 presidents were "old white men," right?
I hear all these people chanting about how Obama is the grace of God because "omg he's a black man... this is epic history happening here, ladies and gentleman. omfg life has never been better."
Screw that. Skin color and age is meaningless. Obama's going to be an old black man soon enough. What's the difference between that and an old white guy? Do you feel that he is some great being simply because he's black? Or maybe you're *****ing about "old white men" because the stereotype to you apparently is "old white man = right winger who wants to drill drill drill and war war war" just because you've been exposed to people who constantly blame the universe's problems on Bush. If that's the case, then I guess all the presidents before Obama were just bitter, angry old white men who couldn't do anything right and Obama is the gift of God that is going to cast away the dark clouds that have been over the United States that the "old white men" created by waving his hand and saying "Change..... CHANGE!!!"
