Does anybody carebear about ignorant racists?
Does anybody really carebear about ignorant racists? This past election I was an Obama "supporter". I don't have a strong opinion on politics because of my theory on politics. I feel that people shouldn't argue opinions on political issues until they have lived on their own, or experienced a certain issue personally. This is because until then, I feel like people are going off of their parents opinions. Nothing pisses me off more than kids who talk like they know what they're talking about when really they have no clue. Just like some people support Obama because he is black. I know there are people out there who know his platform, but I also know that many people just support him just because of his race. I also am tired of some white people dissing Obama because they don't want a black president. Arguing about politics is pointless, people have different life situations and if one point of view benefits them and not you then let them beleive what they feel benefits them, and you can beleive what you feel benefits you. Mainly, I'm just tired of ignorant kids who try to preach to others when if they stopped and listened to themselves they would realize how stupid they sound. The racism is worthless anyways people forget that Obama is Black and White. So I don't really carebear about ignorant racists.

Good points all, but most important I think is your recognition that we first have to know what a candidate stands represents. Fortunately the WWW makes that easy; ironically, most people don't take advantage of it. While I agree that younger people may not have experience in politics -- or as you put it, "experienced certain issues personally" -- learning the issues, studying the candidates can make up for the "inesperience." And, hell, why shouldn't people argue about politics. It's like arguing over sports. Or am I wrong?
