Obama ‘black’ concerns
Written by: AlexKP
As America wakes up to the realisation that it has a new president, a few lone voices have been claiming that Barack Obama is not white. Until a few weeks ago, the vast majority of Southern States voters had clearly indicated their conviction that Obama was a white man with a heavy tan. ‘I’m votin’ Obama. I ain’t gonna see no goddamn coloured in the White House’ was a common reaction to any suggestion that the Democrat candidate might be the first Afro-American to attain the highest office.
Grand Kleagle Billy Bob Jacobs stated publically that, ‘Ain’t no chance the folks round here are gonna vote for a negro to sit in Washin’ton. Didn’t the Lard say that the black man should know his place and work in Burger King? I’m votin’ Obama, and any other dang patriot should do the same.’
Paster Phelps of the Westboro Baptist Church, generally recognised as the second most hated man in America after George W. Bush, launched into the attack. ‘The Lord said ‘there’s only one thing I hate more than a faggot and that’s a black faggot’. In his name we must denounce John McCain as the servant of Satan, a black man and a homosexual who likes to take it in the butt.’
In Missississississsspeeee, often regarded as the most difficult to spell state, black people were only allowed in 1998. Before then, a complete ban on coloureds had been enforced since Sidney Poitier’s 1967 Oscar triumph for ‘In The Heat of the Night’. Local celebrations were slightly muted as revellers pointed out ‘We know he’s white, but he sure seems to have spent a long time sunnin’ hiself. He needs to be careful otherwise less enlighten’d folks might start think he’s a negro lover. He needs to be more like that Cohlin’ Powell, a good soldier and whiter than ‘ol whitey.’
