This video of McCain supporters answering questions about Obama being a terrorist made me sad.
How can there be people like this in our country? It is no wonder terrorists question our values.
I recently wrote about the failures of our educational system because of backwards policies and practices. This video is way more disheartening when it comes to that topic. The ideological ineptitude of some makes me think we should make the emphasis of respect and tolerance in our teaching a priority. The ignorance of our populace is frightening and sickening and must not be ignored. While we may not have government-mandated segregation anymore, racism is a major and present danger that we must combat in all aspects of our lives, starting with our educational system.

Why do you hate America so much Dan?! You do realize God is punishing America with another Great Depression because of radical liberals like you, don't you? Who's side are you on anyway?!
Maybe should show some respect and tolerance for ideological ineptitude, ignorance, and racism!
You're gonna feel really silly when Iraq Hussein Osama turns America into a French-speaking vegan socialist black-nationalist homosexual caliphate.
lol at comment above.
What gets me is how the McCain campaign and the far right misinforms and capitalizes on the public's ignorances in the negative campaign strategy to depict Obama as unqualified, incompetent, unpatriotic, Muslim, Arab, even unAmerican in the legal sense in recent attempts to doubt Obama's citizenship. This sort of scapegoating, in the absence of leadership within the Republican party, is the only fuel this campaign has left.
