First of all I would like to clarify that Obama is not muslim (although there is nothing wrong with that). Obama is a christian who believes in my Lord and savior Jesus Christ and GOD the father. I think that he is a smart, brillant young man that brings hope and change to our nation (GOD knows we need it).
I am African American and I would not vote for any candidate that I don't believe in. I believe in Senator Obama and what he stands for. So many women are already struggling everyday just to make ends meet. Senator Obama wants to bring relief to the middle class by cutting your taxes so that you can get by. He supports women's rights, education and health care for your kids. He supports equal pay for women. Also, you can tell a lot about a man by how he treats his wife.
Yes I do believe Hillary would have lost the African American vote because just as the women claim that sexism played a part in her defeat, there is a lot of racism taking place during this election. Some die hard christians would rather die than to see a black man as president and that is so sad.
I am 57 years old and have voted ever since I was a young adult and never gave a second thought to voting for a caucasian president because I was taught to love everybody whether they be black,white,hispanic,muslim,ect... That's why I resent the fact that my color is not accepted in the same manner that I accepted our past caucasian presidents.
I don't know if any of you are christians or not, if you aren't I am not referring to you but if you are, we had better get it right before our time on earth expires. Jesus tells us to "love ye one another as I have loved you".
Women we need to come together and realize that Hillary is not the democratic nominee and support our candidate. Lets do the right thing, regardless of race (that's what this all boils down to).
I Corinthians 13:11 says " When I was a child, I spake as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child but when I became a man, I put away childish things".
Be blessed.
