But if that's the rule, I'll do canvassing. I've managed to bring all of my friends and most family onboard (grandparents were a tough sell since they're afraid Obama will "only be for The Blacks," but they came around when I reasoned with them on how stupid and ignorant an idea that was). And I've dutifully done rebuttals to the smear emails and all that.
Hell, even a few of the racist Georgia kinfolk got onboard. "Well, he's a n-----, and I hate the Democrat Party, but we cain't have McCain." (shrug) Whatever works, I guess.
You're from New York, so you're automatically fucked with the rest of the country. I'm amazed they allowed you to canvass with the whites. Conservatives want live babies so they can raise them to be dead soldiers. - George Carlin

The strange thing is Obama should have a certain appeal to southern whites because that culture has more in common with AAs than they do white Yankees or Westerners.
for all the real ethnic harmony that hawaii models in some ways, it is as rare to see afro americans as it was in santa cruz california.
and s.cruz has that place a few miles away where it is predominantly AA, begins with a W, it's on the tip of my tongue.
hawaii has some military AA's, but they're just passing through. ~"When an inner situation is not made conscious, it appears outside as fate." Karl Jung~
