It's seem that white people would rather vote for a moron liar. Obama is smart!!!8yrs of bush should bee enough for Americans to want to move forward in the world arena

Maybe it's naivety, maybe it's because I'm not a US citizen but I think sexism is more of a problem than racism. Seems most average white American guys would rather have a black male president than a white female one. I think it goes deep to the heart of the puritanical past of the US founding colonists where the father was head of the family.

You you might have a point there dude! we Americans seem kinda hungup on some real issue that muddy the waters of clear and concise thought

By the results of the primaries tonight I don't think it's that important at all. I sure hope it isn't, anyway. Annie
