I see the word racism used regularly on HOP and it seems to me that some of us have different definitions of the word.Can blacks be racist or is racism limited to whites only.If you think Obama was a lousy pres does that make you racist?If you reject the welfare state mentality are you racist?If you question taking down Confederate statues are you racist?What exactly are the elements that make up racism?Are there really different races or are racial classifications inappropriate?It would be nice to have a non emotional discussion here with no name calling.So let me present my opinion to start. Obama was a crappy pres. But not cuz he is black. He started out by lying to us (Obamacare will be debated on CSpan). His leadership was marginal as he did not even attempt to cross the bridge with Congress. He ran our deficit through the roof (from below $10 trillion to over $20 trillion). His Iran nuke deal was a disaster and he lied more than once to sell it. So Obama was the pits but none of my problems with him involve his skin color or his parentage. He did the least and cost the most of any recent pres. Obama's spending was unsustainable.So I have a very low opinion of Obama.Does that make me racist?
