    Very little. Most of the resentment or hatred is because most Americans do not want to be socialist and do not want to be Europeans.

    Most Americans do not want to be socialist? That can't be true otherwise Obama wouldn't have been elected in the first place.

    No, socialist is not bandied about, but people who disagree with progressive types get called ignorant or stupid quite a bit.

    Incompetence knows no race. A majority are disatisfied with Mr. Obama because he has failed miserably. He took a bad situation and made it so much worse. Supporters are using race as an issue to discredit the Obama critics. It's worse than a lie, and they are
    stooping to new lows in raising it as such.

    Where my uncle use to live their is a old man who lives behind him he has a picture of obama hanging from a nuse saying N are not fit to run the country . Obama to me did not fail he did what he could and people make it worse buy treating him with a level of disrespect that we treat no other president. I am not a supporter I am just real about how I feel and wanted to know. We can sweep thing under the rug all we want but all we will do is make a dirty pile of trash. sadly I have seen it alot ALOT even in my own work place. So you may not like what he has done join the club but that is not the question

    There will always be racists out there. My point is that the vast majority of those opposed to him( including some that voted for him the last time around) are not. Speaking of disrespect for the president, do I have to remind you of the level of crap that was thrown at George Bush by the very same people who are shouting racism now.

    I'm soooo tired of race being an issue. People are too hypersensitive about it. I didn't vote for him in '08 because I couldn't figure out what he really stood for and he had virtually no experience to speak of. Now that he does have experience I'm still not voting for him because I don't believe this country can survive under his policies.
    The thing about it is Obama himself plays the race card. And because he does, we all fall down on it. As Commander in Chief he could've left that in the dust but he constantly says stuff like that and so do so many of his supporters. Enough already.

    The KKK. Black Panthers. Racism works everyway and will always exist. Obama got elected mostly by White Men. So to say that there is hatred towards him is based on his skin color is a lie. The Liberals in the media used this last time to guilt people into voting for him. So its no surprise that they are doing it again.

    Furthermore Obama has absolutely no African heritage. Hes part Arabic and part Caucasian. Liberals get duped everytime on lies like these. More intelligent people know better. I think its pretty despicable and racist for the left to put a colored man up for President and try to guilt everyone into voting for him simply because he is colored. But Liberals will be Liberals. Nothing new here.

We can try to sweep it like that's not something but really are we actually gonna say he guilted and some of the low very messed up **** that is still being said because he a liberal . I gotta wonder we have never treated a president with such disrespect before. Even nixon with water gate. Bush and the war. Why now

Obama went to Ivy League college on the tax payers dime and he has an Incomplete grade. Yet automatically Obama gets treated like hes far more intelligent? How do you explain that?

    not in the least. why did you vote for him? you mention birth place. it amazes me how a guy from hawaii can have a Connecticut ss number. why won't release his college records? why is he promising everyone everything when it will cost those working and paying taxes far more than they can ever afford to pay to make it work? no, the evil rich being taxed 100 percent could not put a drop in the bucket of his racked up debt no matter how much it feels good to say 'yeah, tax them out of everything.' i have no issues with his skin color. i have issues with his ideas which had been tried in other countries which now receive millions or billions in aid from us. why did 98 percent of african americans vote for obama? was it because of his skin color, because he had a (d) next to his name when for the past 50 years they fail to deliver on the promises they tell the black community, or what? do they want to help the black community, or just have a consistently dem voting block. the black community needs to do what everyone else does, and help themselves; i.e. work hard, get educated, and get better jobs. the first step to doing that is to keep the family together. even if all these things happen there is no guarantee of success. not everyone gets what they want. it's just how life goes. i not at all where i thought i'd be but i'm still working my *** off to get there, and i will until i die. These are just a few of my concerns and questions.

    It's always been the case for opposing parties to take shots at and complain about the incumbent...but I've never seen anything like what Obama has faced with any previous president! Just total and outright disrespect no other president has endured. And all the stupid demands, like him having to produce his birth certificate to 'prove' he is eligible to be president. Come on!

    The people who voted for him, regardless of color, are not the ones I'm referring to and I'm not referring to the usual comments, complaints, jokes, etc. all presidents have faced. I'm specifically referring to the kind of treatment that no previous president has experienced - like the birth certificate issue. And things like what Renn posted about the 'spooks' sign. I'm not saying that's the only reason - obviously, like any president, he's going to have people who don't like him, don't agree with his policies, etc. I've just never seen the other kind of treatment I'm referring to towards any previous president.

    There is far more RACISM supporting Odumbo than opposing him. Odumbo even has RACIST videos advocating black people to vote for him because of his color.

    Those who oppose Odumbo are opposed to socialism, racism, dictatorial power, fascism, anti-American policies, economic failures, international policy failures, fail after fail after fail as President.
