re: #78 HappyWarrior

If not racist, it certainly plays to racism and at the least xenophobia. Listen to Obama’s critics, it’s that “he’s different.”

That one creeps me out, partly because they can’t explain it, but it clearly means something to their listeners. He’s ‘different’. He doesn’t ‘feel’ like you and me. He didn’t ‘grow up’ like you and me.

This may draw some people closer to them. It alienates the hell out of me.
