    It strikes me as very undemoctratic that Obama was elected pretty much because of his colour.

    I'd imagine trolling. Nobody could be that thick. Could they?

      if he had lost the election the beeb etc. would be labelling usa as a racist country
      but he was elected and all the african american opinion polls showed they were going for obama yet no-one suggested this was racist
      did you see paxman interview afr-americans on newsnight the other night? he asked them why they vote obama and what he would do and they just didn't know
      the bias of the beeb on this election has been sickening

        The court heard Darren Upton had written a letter to Judge Sally Cahill QC saying he wasn’t “a typical inmate of prison”.

        But the judge said: “That simply demonstrates your arrogance continues. You are typical. Inmates of prison are people who are dishonest. You are a thoroughly dishonestly man motivated by your own selfish greed.”

          oh yeah they respected clinton and his sleazy cigar incident
          I don't understand why people think approval of the rest of the world is a sign of success for America. Do they really desire the approval of socialist europe, commie China and russia, islamic states etc.?

            So in essence it's a sad day because a black man got voted in and the prospect of Religeous war is less likely. What a disaster!

                  George H W Bush elected = War in Iraq
                  Bill Clinton elected = 10 years of relative peace by American standards
                  George W Bush elected = War in Iraq

                  Hmmm if that’s all we have to worry about I'll take the cigar incident any day.

In fact, why not invent a special safety door that won't hit you in the butt on the way out, because you are fired. - Cave Johnson

                      Yep, they respected him and ignored the cigar incident because leaders with vices are not necessarily bad guys. Churchill enjoyed his whiskey, FDR liked his opium and his rent boys, Clinton enjoyed his secretary’s cigar tricks, Mandela was quite a ladies’ man, while probably the most clean living, monogamous, moderate drinker to lead any developed country in the 20th century was Adolf Hitler.
