Hmmm, I guess I am one of the minority who is not a racist. I couldn't care less what race he is.

I'll rephrase my question: Are you implying that I am racist? I don't think you meant to imply that, but your post hit right after mine and I wasn't sure.
I wasn't talking to you specifically at all. My post implied that everyone who a) voted for Obama because he was black, or b) is getting all excited over his blackness as POTUS, is strictly speaking, racist. I couldn't care less about the man's race. I thought that is what MLK lived and died for: "content of his character, not the color of his skin". How is doing exactly the opposite of MLK's vision anything but promoting racism?
