‘Because He’s a Black Man’: Kerry Believes Obama Will Help With Muslims
"It would be such an affirmation of who we say we are as a people. if we could elect an African-American president, young leader, who is obviously visionary about the ability to inspire people."
It shows how much of this is based on White guilt.
B. Hussein ObamaMarch 21st, 2008 - 5:10 pm
typical white cracker guilt gonna get this muslin in the white house!

Since Jim Crow ended, our schools have become like prisons, once nice neighborhoods have become ghettos, crime skyrocketed, our GDP has fallen, our society has become degenerate, etc…
So, tell me again why that was a good idea.

Kerry is a racist just by saying what he said.he is measuring Obama on the color of his Marxist skin.I live in Boston and believe me when I tell you that if any Blacks even walk on his street on beacon Hill the cops are on them like flys on Sh..! He is another phony Lib whp’s kids will never lose a sit at a university ot a job due to racial quotas like I have three time.he doesn’t care about Blacks at all.he has been in the senate for dacades but the Black areas here in Boston are still poor and full of crime,fatherless kids,gangs and liberal Marxist so-called Christian preachers who are always asking for more and more tax money which is used to line their pockets.Kerry betrayed us after Viet Nam, he burned someone else’s medals,he lied over and over again.and never worked a day in his miserable life!!He gets his own money the hard way…he marries it!he has now betrayed Clinton for a Marxist racist rookie who thinks Jesus’ Sermon on the Mount menat that abortion and Gay marriage are OK with Jesus.What gall!! They belong with each other two liars and betrayers. he will come back here soon to run again with all his claims of getting health care and all his war medals..which he still hasn’t explained.I know of not one Marine, or any other fighting man or woman, who received three purple hearts and never spent one day in a hospital…and not one who wrote up the medal citations himself for himself! Kerry did this!

First of all I thought kerry was dead.
second I did not think Oslami was a mooslim anymore.
third islam does not care who is in the white house they hate AMERICA and all it stands for!!
I guess the media and the liberals will never get it..
woweeMarch 21st, 2008 - 7:06 pm
This man shows how LITTLE he knows about the muslim mind. They don’t belive in western thought. They think freedom is evil. If you are not a muslim you are scum. You are not gona romance them with one half black one half white man. They will do any thing to purge their so called land of any non-muslim. These numb nuts think that they can reason with un reasonable people. They do not belive any non muslim. And you clueless @*&% %$#%s think you can be president and protect America? You may hate bush but after 9-11 there has been no attact on American soil. IT TAKES BRASS ONES TO BE A PRESIDENT AND A WILLINGNESS TO BE UNPOPULAR FOR THE GOOD OF THE PEOPLE TO BE PRESIDENT AND KERRY AND OBAMA ARE SPINELESS. NO BACKBONE.
steveMarch 21st, 2008 - 7:15 pm
If a republican said this he would be forced to resign for sure ! That is the honest to goodness truth. What a bunch of bull !!!!!!
DaisyMarch 21st, 2008 - 7:56 pm
Nice how Kerry dumps all the people he considers ‘minorities’ into one pig pity pot of disenfranchisement. I wonder if Asians &/or Hispanics – 2 remarkably diligent peoples – would care to comment on being put in the same category as the fatherless (and proud of it) Arab-American (hey, that’s how the peace and love Kenyan’s categorized his father’s ethnicity .. deal with it) kind of White and almost African but 100% Marxist, Obama?
The only clearly disenfranchised ass I can see is Kerry. Will that cowardly gigolo ever stop being stupid and just shut up?
Get this Kerry: The Arab word for black is exactly the same word they use for slave. Have you ever bothered to see the Palestinian cartoons of Condaleeza Rice? Lynch mobs in the 20’s South could not have come up with any caricature as disgraceful. Many Africans still practice slavery and almost all Arabs condone slavery. Who is Obama going to be speaking to – over the dictators shoulders? People who still deal in human bondage, you ass! They would sooner have him shine their boots than talk to him.
Go take a nice long bike ride. You sure as heck won’t be cruising through some of the Black neighborhoods in Boston.
DaisyMarch 21st, 2008 - 8:02 pm
And I thought Kerry was despicable for worrying about what the French think of us .. he’s sunk to a new low (openly) worrying about what Islamist dictators think of us.
On the bright side, one of his own has finally admitted Obama is a Muslim. Nevermind hiding behind Wright – he’s interchangeable w/Imam Fharakhan.
No more democratsMarch 22nd, 2008 - 12:22 am
Wow, this guy is dumb as hell.
TexanMarch 22nd, 2008 - 12:24 am
This has got to be one of the foolish things (and that is saying a lot) Kerry has ever said. It betrays his inane thought process that “gee, radical Islamo-fascists will like us if we only just elect a black man”. NO, NO, NO Senator, Islamo-facists hate us because we are the West and do not follow their brand of Islam. Thank God this Fool was not elected President.
JimBoMarch 22nd, 2008 - 1:15 am
Senqtor Kerry said, you heard it here.
“Because he’s an African-American”.
Those are qualifications we should aspire too.
Okay then.
RWRMarch 22nd, 2008 - 1:27 am
I can see why someone with the middle name Hussein would be helpful in getting Muslim votes. Note to Johnny Kerry, shut the hell up. You were without a doubt the worst candidate the Dems ever put forth. At least until now.
n WaffMarch 22nd, 2008 - 2:02 am
When Gereldine Ferraro refers to Obama’s “african-american”-ness in a negative connotation, she gets pummelled. When Kerry refers to Obama’s “african-american”-ness as a postive attribute, he gets a pass.
markMarch 22nd, 2008 - 2:24 am
john kerry may be one of the biggest morons walking this planet. So just because obama (the black terrorist) is infact, black, that qualifies him to talk to terror groups and be effective? The utter stupidity of democrats NEVER ceases to amaze me!
Proud2bWiteMarch 22nd, 2008 - 2:58 am
Kerry is a Muslin too but he won’t admit it because he still wants to be president but it is too late the minorities are taking everything. They get all the best jobs and all the good college admissions and houses and cars and nos they want the presidentsy too. The White Man can’t get anything anymore it isn’t Fair.
NoGuffMarch 22nd, 2008 - 3:15 am
1. If a Republican ever said what Kerry just did, or said “typical Black person,” there would be riots in the streets from Liberals. and Republicans would ask him to resign even if there weren’t.
2. John Kerry has ketchup for brains if he thinks ‘Muslims will listen to Obama and we’ll be rid of terrorism.’ What an incredible IDIOT.
3. Terrorists and dictators have already announced their endorsement of ANY DEMOCRAT for President. They said it this election year, and back in ‘04. They’ve said it ever since Jimmy Carter was elected. Why? Because DEMOCRATS APPEASE TERRORISTS just like Kerry is proposing here, and just like he’s proposed before, just like all other Democrats have before, except for Joe Lieberman.
So this, my friends, is why we MUST elect John McCain. He’s not perfect, he’s not Superman, he’s not going to making everything right with a wave of a magic want. And you know what? NEITHER WILL OBAMA. But at least McCain understands foreign policy and the proper use of force when needed. And that’s what has made America great, and one of the safest places in the world to live.
Real WorldMarch 22nd, 2008 - 4:37 am
Mr Kerry,
I agree with you completely–I’m sure if you were to take a poll of all the muslim extremists they would overwhelmingly support Obama for president. Heck, they would even feel comfortable attending his church.
PaleRyderMarch 22nd, 2008 - 5:01 am
Kerry is absolutly right on.The muslime world will like obama,and it will help the dems explain to their islamic radical wing of the party why they could not put together the surrender they promised.Kerry and the rest of the hate-America crowd will gladly turn our blood earned freedoms over to a bunch of goat molesting third world toilet dictators who in turn will gladly put a bullet in their head as well as those who actually disagree with their views.The arrogant ignorance of the lepers on the left is astounding.THEY WANT US ALL DEAD,not just some of us…get it through your socialistic head once and for all.So just relav johnny boy,I’m sure osama’s campaign contibution check is in the mail,maybe nancy has some left over from her campaign.
[...] Kerry says, “because he’s a black man.” [...]
steve bourgMarch 22nd, 2008 - 8:21 am
Kerry (and most Democrats) sound like (and are!) idiots when speaking about the muslim jihadists, because they don’t understand the whole idea of Jihad. This is the huge shame of them all. They hate Bush so much that they’ve compromised our whole country. The truth is the OPPOSITE of what Kerry said! The Jihadists will dance in the streets b/c if Obama or Hillary are elected President, the Jihadists will have a chance of creating total chaos in Iraq…..and that’s just their start. So it is practically traitorous for Kerry, Obama, Hillary, Pelosi, et al to believe otherwise because the truth is not difficult here.
WillieMarch 22nd, 2008 - 11:07 am
Why is he a Black man if his mother was White?
RebeccaMarch 22nd, 2008 - 11:41 am
Mr. Kerry,
Along this same line of reasoning, would it not be a great message to put a capable woman into the White House, since it is women who are downtrodden, paid 77 cents for the same work a man makes a dollar for—the racial problems are slim compared to the gender problems–black men got the vote in this country in 1870. Women got the vote in 1920.
ClydeMarch 22nd, 2008 - 4:07 pm
ha ha ha haaa!!!! oh man these idiot dems just don’t know when to stop digging….kerry just cannot keep his foot out of his mouth! Obama is finished.
JoeInNYMarch 22nd, 2008 - 5:57 pm
Oh, I get it. We’ve been sending people of the wrong color to deal with the Middle East. What amazing wisdom. I guess Kerry finally figured out he was the wrong color for the situation. On Kerry: “He can bridge the divide of religious extremism.”
Wow, the Democrats are truly mentally unfit to lead, this is great stuff.
Kerry: ” A Kenyan father, and raised by a single parent.” Hey Kerry, that single parent happened to be a white woman. The color that you’re ashamed of being, which is another thing you have in common with Obama. Dangerous….
MEMarch 22nd, 2008 - 7:12 pm
Kerry’s right. The thinking on this board got us in the situation we’re in. It was a very brave comment.
luvgossipMarch 22nd, 2008 - 7:48 pm
Kerry is damn right! Obama ‘08!

Willie wrote: “Why is he a Black man if his mother was White?”
Whites created the “one-drop [blood] rule” during the Jim Crow area. The idea was if a person had any trace of family blood from sub-Saharan Africa, they had to be considered black. However, if a person were of Asian, Native American, or Arab ancestry then they could claim to be white.
This notion has largely lingered on, and that’s why Obama is usually solely identified as a black man.
RoverMarch 22nd, 2008 - 10:04 pm
Of course, Kerry is wrong.
If you want to get on the good side of the Muslim world, you have to do what Bush and Cheney do. Sell them weapons!!! Like $20 Billion just this year!!
Here’s a little quiz for the neocons. What type of aircraft defend the skies over Mecca?
In other words, when Tom Tancredo goes over there to bomb Mecca, what type of air power is he going to meet up with?
Russian, French, Iranian???
Answer:
Tom is going to first be picked up by Persian gulf US forces that will immediately inform the Royal Saudi Air force that there is an incoming aircraft headed towards their airspace. The Saudis will immediately take Cheney to cover. Then the Saudis will track Tom with one of their 5 Boeing E-3 Sentry Airborne Early Warning aircraft generally known as AWACS. Then they will deploy some Boeing KE-3A refueling aircraft to support air combat and get out some of their 12 Boeing AH-64 Apache attack helicopters in case Tom does a John McCain and crashes.
Then it’s going to get serious for ol’ Tom! 153 series C, D, and S Boeing F-15 Eagles or going up and 110 Northrop F-5 Freedom Fighters. The single Boeing 757 Medical Transport will also be activated in case Cheney has a heart attack.
Now do you really think the Muslims in Mecca are going to give a rats a** that Obamas skin is sort of the same colors as theirs. Or do think they really care about how many weapons he is going to sell them…
Of course, the Bin Laden family is extremely powerful and has vast influence in Saudi Arabia too. The US and many US companies have large dealing with them everyday. Osama is just the sort of black sheep of the Bin Laden family.
Now, are we still worried that Obama might not hate the Muslims…
NORMMarch 22nd, 2008 - 11:25 pm
Kerry lost and still picks losers He’ll never learn If Obama wins the USA loses Like they could care if Obama is black……..

ME,
“The thinking on this board is what got us in trouble?” You ought to try thinking, you freakin imbecile. Yeah, let’s talk in soft, measured tones to these poor, misguided terrorists. YOUR type of thinking, or lack thereof, is what got this country in the state it’s in today. These people need to be eradicated, and turned into Crispy Critters. As for Kerry and race, try this one on. Up here in New England he bragged for years about his Irish heritage. Until it turned out he “discovered” he’s 1/2 Jewish, and 0% Irish. Democrats are weasels on race. Madeleine Allwrong only discovered she was Jewish when someone pointed it out to her, as was the same scenario with General Weasily Clark. And Obama is “African-American” because it helps his electabilty, period. Why isn’t he American-Afican? ME, don’t let the facts, or reality phuck up your pathetic inabilty to reason.
BobbyMarch 24th, 2008 - 3:11 am
Starting at 39 seconds:
…’and I think in the end, he has an ability to help us bridge the divide of religious extremism; to maybe even give power to moderate Islam; to be able to stand up against THIS RADICAL MISINTERPRETATION OF A LEGITIMATE RELIGION…’
I’ll bet Johnny Boy has never read a single sentence from Qur’an and doesn’t have a clue what a hadith or the sira are; yet he wants us to believe he knows more about Islam than devout, lifelong Muslims like UBL and his sidekick Zawahari.
Tell us, Johnny. What chapters and verses of Qur’an have Muslim fundamentalists misinterpreted?
Texan –
It shows how much of this is based on White guilt.
