		<description>While we're on the subject...I'm sick of hearing that I need to be ashamed of raping Indians a bizillion years ago.  I never raped a Native American, oppressed a woman, denied a woman the right to vote, or raped a woman.  In fact, since I AM A WOMAN, I've also never been raped or oppressed by any man.

I thank God I live in this country every day.  And when I look into the typical white faces of my sons, brothers, father, husband...I am proud.  Proud of our men and how hard they have worked to build their women up.  We are equal.  No burkas or squatting in rice patties here.  We are doctors, lawyers, engineers, mothers, teachers, dancers, laughers, lovers and loved.</description>

		<description>Just one question... 

Who has been bamboozling who, for their votes, brother?

As a not so typical irrelevant color person, I detest what Barack has done to the country.

He is a deeply flawed candidate and must step down... but he does not see the need for it.  

So, dear PA, ALL of you.. be sure to get all your friends and family to THINK LONG and HARD on whether we want such a devious person in the office.

A heart-healthy change is indeed available.. and that is Hillary.  If they dont know her well, ask them to visit www.thehillaryiknow.com - it was quite an experience for me to get to know Hillary from the viewpoint of 40 people who know her and her work very well.  It's about time we gave this true public servant (yes, she is) a fair chance and that is all it is going to take to get her into the office.. AND PROVE IT TO THIS SHAM WHAT A NOT-SO-TYPICAL FEMALE CAN DO TO OUST SUCH NASTINESS FROM THE PUBLIC ARENA FOREVER!!  Thank you.</description>

		<description>Isn't it ironic that Howard Dean, who's mission was to get the Democratic party taken over by grassroots and get rid of the "establishment", has *become* the establishment by playing crappy, biased politics and is trying to shove this unvetted, racist, anti-American empty suit down our throats?</description>

		<description>My grandmothers are Typical White Persons too: they live in Poland. One of them has no conventional bathroom and still uses an outhouse at the age of seventy two--no health workers or nurses around as she lives alone. My other grandmother lives on a farm and raised all the food for the family all of her life.</description>

		<description>I, for one, am fed up with all the double talk.....all the double standards that have
been so prevelant in the Obama campaign. 
It is not alright to be racist, period! This
man is not about change! Change is a convenient slogan for his " just so typical "
rhetoric! 
I want to cast my vote on merit! I want to vote for someone who can represent all the peoples of this great nation. I want to vote for someone with experience and a history for working together with democrats, republicans, blacks, hispanics, white , men and women. No more double talk....no more double standards. I'm just voting for a plain ole 'typical white " woman from New York!</description>

		<description>"I can no more disown him than I can disown the black community."

then it can still be concluded that one does not have a a mentor/spiritual advisor for over 20 yrs. without sharing the same views!...Obama`s refusal to ‘disown’ his Pastor strongly suggests that`s the case!

but perhaps the larger issue is that while Obama`s preaching togetherness, he goes to a church who`s Pastors preach racial, anti-American garbage...and who preach a separatist, 'Black Only Value System', which is extremely divisive...even Obama`s mentor, the Rev. Wright, stated that it`s a separate but = black theology!

and what`s this use of the word ‘disown’...doesn`t Obama know that`s RACIST...but against black people...

yes...we all have friends, etc., who say things we strongly disagree with...but there`s a HUGE difference...none of my friends, etc., have ever been my mentor/spiritual advisor for OVER 20 YRS!

just another TYPICAL politician!...</description>

		<description>I'm so glad to know I'm a typical smart white person whose not going to let Nobama get by with this. After all who is really being racist? I think he and the rest of his typical black friends are the racists.92% of the blacks voting for Nobama. Hmmmmmmm let me see that sounds racist to me. You want to here some stuff on Obama and Oprah by a reverend from harlem go to you to Atlah.org rev. david manning. He will give you typical white people a few lessons on B. Hussein Obama.</description>

		<description>Maybe Americans are finally seeing Obama for what he is. Sounds like he has been trying to cover up his own racist feelings, by pointing the finger at the Clintons. I hope it is not too late to defeat him. He has no experience, is friends with very cruel people in Africa, goes to a racist and anti-American church for 20 years, and worse than that seems to have no problem doing so. We are just beginning to know who he really is.</description>

		<description>It saddens me to think that Senator Obama is somehow the spokesperson for all people of color. 

I have a question I would like people to think about:

What if Senator Clinton or Senator McCain referred to someone as a "typical black person"? Would that make them racist? If so is that not a double standard?</description>
