If Obama is not elected, will there be violence in the streets?

We all know Obama has the lead according to polls. But do we know how many more will be first time voters and are not included in the poll? The overwhelming majority of first time voters will be voting Obama and IMO will be a huge force, as much as 10%. If for some reason, these votes are not counted or disqualified and McCain gets in as President, do you see riots in the streets? Violence?

That for absolute certain, and in fact I was ruminating today that if the Reps steal this election it could lead to revolution. Revolution would require a meltdown of the social fabric of America, so it would take years, but if the system is so corrupt that presidential elections are obviously being stolen, it could lead to that kind of meltdown.

I'll be suspicious, to say the least, if he keeps up his current lead and doesn't win the election.

or is it just possible that many people polled have said that they will vote Obama just so they don't get accused of being a racist?

How many "non-racist" dems are actually going to change their minds at the last minute because they don't want a black guy in office?

For many voters, especially the older crowd may decide that they would rather have a white guy they disagree with in office before they put a black guy they agree with in office.

racism is not simply a "republican" thing....you got plenty of them in your group too.....perhaps more than you think that will swing this election the other way.

You know not voting for OBAMA does NOT make you a racist.

Given the attack on the mccain supporter in that other thread, no need to wait to see if obama loses...Violence Now!

I know...that is the point of:

racism has been thrown about this election so much by the left

Obama saying that he "doesn't look like all those other presidents on the dollar bills"

Barney Frank accusing the GOP criticism of the Democrats handling of the financial crisis as "a veiled attacked on the poor that's racially motivated"

Gregory Meeks, a Democrat from New York charged that Sarah Palin was "using code" when she made the statement "He's not one of us" when referring to Obama.

News anchor Ray Suarez told a local crowd that the "pseudo controversies" about Obama's background are symbols for a "racial calculus" hard at work in U.S. politics.

Peter Otika stated "Sen. McCain and Gov. Palin have now employed right wing Ku Klux Klan hatred, racism, bigotry and have even encouraged their supporters to kill Sen. Barack Obama with rhetoric that?s clearly meant to incite."

John Murtha said "?There is no question that western Pennsylvania is a racist area.?"

so there are a shitload of stories in the press about reporters, and political figures specifically stating that racism is strong and loud in this country and if Obama looses this will be why.

So with all that floating around when people have a Obama supporter at thier doorstep or in their face somewhere asking if they will support Obama they may say yes even though they don't plan on it just so they are faced with the possibility of being falsely accused of being racist.


Just because the polls show him as ahead of McCain does not mean he will will the Presidency....it just means that the pollsters heard what they wanted to hear.

So basically if Oblahma doesn't win his people will get the free handouts no matter at what cost?

Yes... I know, I just come in here to poke around every now and then. So fun, just like poking a beehive.

This is obvious racial flame-bait.

Race riots?

Obama is not a US Citizen. It will take more than a photoshopped birth certificate to prove it. Exactly what location was he born and who witnessed it?

Not for a long time, i just dislike the racists "i'm no racist, it's common knowledge that blacks cannot control themselves and will riot if democracy works against them", the retarded idiots who don't know what socialism and capitalism is, who don't get that every first world country is neither socialist nor capitalist, and the likes of you who don't know shit about English politics and say that the Tories are neo-conservatives and monarchists.

You're ALL equally daft.

I simply don't like ignorance but it's fucking overwhelming in this forum at times.

I know when i get to the polling station someone is getting an instant (just add water) ass whoopin if they attempt to challenge my vote!
