I have several problems with this

1. most of mccain supporters are most likely NOT racists. yes, there are some exceptions but for the most part I feel conservatives are not racist for not supporting obama. Tell me, were we racist for not supporting bill clinton?

2. gun sales have increased since the election, however I feel that this is most likely due to the fact that a lot of conservatives are under the false impression that the president elect will try to take their guns.

3. I have heard nothing of these alleged fights based upon racial tension at schools where chants of white power and black power. I think stories of this volitality would have most likely made national news, quite frankly I doubt the legitimacy of these reports.

4. "I'm sure that many of our people have unfortunately lost their lives because of the absolute hatred that is manifested now that one of our own has risen to such a high office," Farrakhan told the crowd at the national headquarters of the Nation of Islam. one of our own if thats not creating boundaries between races I don't know what is.

I'm guessing there were just as many people who voted for Obama because he was black as there were people voting against him for his race.

People like Farrakhan and Jesse Jackson really need to go away now. I'm sick of hearing them blame all the US's problems on white racists. This election has proven that racism against blacks is no longer a significant factor in the US. Their whole argument has vanished. They will either disappear, or stick around and erroneously blame racism for all the legitimate critisism of Obama during his presidency. I really hope it's the former.
