It can go anyway, but Whites and Blacks are the most common in that category.



I am not accusing you, because I have no way of knowing what you say, or how you say it against Obama. But some people will find fault with a person who is another race, ethnic group or religion and bring that up even if that is not their main point. That sometimes makes them sound racist.



I know several people who despise Obama but are not racists where most African Americans are concerned and others who first and foremost don't like him because he is Black and then on top of that don't like his politics. So when somebody knows people who are in the second category, they might apply that thinking to anybody who opposes the President, etc.How come when Obama is criticized, it is considered racism?Well I'd have to say that many politicians actually really do have a racial distaste for Obama ad could possibly be a factor in criticism on Obama. On the other hand it could be seen as a defensive issue for President Obama so as to instill the fact that the criticizer is only saying **** about Obama because he is racist. He really varies here and there, sometimes its racism sometimes its not.|||I don't consider it racism when I criticize Obama...considering I'm Black...and I don't consider it criticism when others criticize Obama- even if they aren't Black. The only time I am suspicious of racism is when that person has a history of saying things that are racist or they come from a racist family...When I lived in Oklahoma- no one liked Obama... And some had legitimate reasons...but others? Well...considering that the KKK and Aryan Brotherhood are both still going strong down there- I would say that most Oklahomans have an issue with Obama for another reason...that isn't political.How come when Obama is criticized, it is considered racism?It's not racism. Whites played a huge part in electing Obama. Now that they don't like his policies and lack of transparency, some of the same people who voted for him, you can't call it racism. The people on the left like to cry racism about the Tea Party or other whites because they think it will get them votes.|||YES! i could not agree with you more. democrats can say whatever they want to white republicans but if someone says one bad thing about Obama they are considered an uneducated racist and are assumed to be part of the KKK. i mean get for real democrats. it just shows how stupid and uneducated they truly are.|||Depends on the subject matter and who is doing the criticism,the nature of the criticism the tone, and whether or not it is considered constructive or destructive to the persons considering ti racism or not.|||Because they want to see him succeed, and Id love to see him succeed, not as a black or white, but as a President. He is not going to simply because of the fact that he has no experience in anything it takes to be President.|||because people are really stupid and they think blacks deserve all the sympathy. I mean come on i watch tv and i see black people saying how whites cant dance. WHat if a show said blacks cant swim. you know how many people would get angry(MOSTLY THE BLACKS). WEll you know what i say!?!? THEY CAN SUCK IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!|||Its because hes black and bush is white... we live in a mostly white country(although mexican population is taking over lol) people may be criticizing him just because of his color.
