Will Black People VOTE for Barack Obama "Just Because He is Black?"

This is an email surfacing among African Americans...

This older white guy asked his older black friend, "Are you voting for Barack Obama just because he's black?" So the older black guy fires back and say, "Are you not voting for him because he's black?"

"Why can't I vote for him just because he's black?" Hell, in this country men are pulled over everyday just because their black, passed over for promotions just because their black, considered to be criminals just because their black, but you don't seem to have a problem with that!

"This country was built with the sweat and whip off the slaves back, and now a descendent of those same slaves has a chance to lead the same country where we were not even considered to be people. Where we weren't allowed to be educated, drink from the same water fountains, and eat in the same restaurants, or even vote, so you damn right I'm going to vote for him!"

"Not just because he's black, But because he is hope, he is change, and he now allows me to understand when my grandson says he wants to be President when he grows up, it is not a fairy tale but a short term goal, because he sees, understand, and knows, he can achieve, withstand, and do anything just because he's black!"
