It seems this is only fair: Obama supporters have accused those questioning his own lack of experience of racism.
In fact, I have seen several articles written recently which state that anybody who doesn't vote for Obama is a racist. Apparently, there are no other reasons why people wouldn't support Obama and millions of people voting for Obama simply because he is a (1/2) black man is okay but the reverse is appauling.
But, yep, Obama and Palin are basically where they are because of their race and gender respectively. Neither have the experience required for the offices they are running for. And please don't try to convince me that Obama would have had the media profile to run for President if he weren't a black man. If he were John Doe, white Senator, ranked 99th in senority and little record of authoring and passing legislation, he wouldn't have stood a chance.
