I have never chosen a candidate based on his/her race. I voted for Ken Blackwell in Ohio for Secretary of State. I voted for Alan Keyes in the presidential primaries in 2000 and in 2008. Both men are highly conservative and African American! All this racist garbage is just that...garbage!
I did not vote for Barack Obama because of his pro-abortion voting record. He was very instrumental in stopping the "born alive" law that would have provided for care to be given to an aborted baby that ended up being born alive.

"As originally proposed, the 2003 state bill, SB 1082, sought to define the term "born-alive infant" as any infant, even one born as the result of an unsuccessful abortion, that shows vital signs separate from its mother. The bill would have established that infants thus defined were humans with legal rights. It never made it to the floor; it was voted down by the Health and Human Services Committee, which Obama chaired."
