A report on the role of race (and racism) in the US election by Al Jazeera English's Casey Kaufman received more than a million views, and was written about in Washington post. Casey speaks to people attending a Sarah Palin rally and most of them have clearly racist feelings Obama, here is some of what they've said:
From an older white woman: "I'm afraid if he wins, the black [sic] will take over. He's not a Christian. This is a Christian nation! What is our country gonna end up like?"
An older white man: "When you got a Negro running for president, you need a first-stringer. He's definitely a second-stringer."
A young white man holding a child: "He seems like a sheep — or a wolf in sheep's clothing to be honest with you. And I believe Palin — she's filled with the Holy Spirit, and I believe she's gonna bring honesty and integrity to the White House."
An older white man: "He's related to a known terrorist, for one."
An older white man: "He is friends with a terrorist of this country!"
An older white man: "He must support terrorists! You know, uh, if it walks like a duck and quacks like a duck, it must be a duck. And that to me is Obama."
A young white woman: "Just the whole, Muslim thing, and everything, and everybody's still kinda — a lot of people have forgotten about 9/11, but . . . I dunno, it's just kinda . . . a little unnerving."
A white woman: "Obama and his wife, I'm concerned that they could be anti-white. That he might hide that."
An older white woman: "I don't like the fact that he thinks us white people are trash . . . because we're not!"
