54. You got it right. Some will use the race card without hesitation
And it's becoming blatantly obvious. It annoys the hell out of me. I voted for Hilary in the primary, and was told by some Democrats that I was racist. My reason was that I felt Obama was far too inexperienced. Hilary had decades of experience on Obama, and when you are involved in multiple wars, an economic collapse, etc, I wanted someone who had proven she knew what she was doing.

I've never been a huge supporter of Obama. I voted for him, but it wasn't like I was ecstatic about it. I knew some of his policies were completely unrealistic, others would be met with extreme opposition, and some were naive. I could make a list of all the reasons why I preferred Hilary over Obama and there would still be people that would call me a racist.

Hate does not cure hate.
