Berkeley Republican: Not all African-Americans support Obama
ST. PAUL — John Scates, a GOP delegate from Berkeley in St. Louis County, talks from the convention floor last night about why he supports John McCain.

I believe the downfall of the Obama ticket, and the reason concerned and informed Black and White Americans will not support him are for Conservative reasons: A liberal thoughtless philosphy, the killing of the innocent and the helpless un-born child whose voice is not being heard, and the attack on pro-family values, forcing the homosexual agenda on our children and on society.
“we have to look at the big picture, what will be best for everyone, for the country, for the un-born child, for the family, Church and society, not what will serve our personel interest(what we can get out of him). The intelligent choice, the wise choice, the thoughtful choice, the McCain/Palin ticket, maybe not best for us as individuals, but best for society and the overall Country!”
It takes guts to stand up against your peers, and stand for what is right. My hat is off to union members, teachers and the Black community who support McCain/Palin, these groups are looking beyond themselves in supporting conservative, wholesome and traditional values. Again, my hat is off to them…!!!
God(Jesus) Bless St. Louis & America.
I noticed that when they had shown the blacks (which I counted about seven) at the RNC they would show them again and again at different angles ,those guys were not pulling my string.
Looking Up….
I’m a teacher that would never back McCain and Palin. I know very few teachers that would. The Republican party under Bush has conspired under No Child Left Behind to take funding from public education and funnel it into private schools. Ask a few public school teachers and they will give you an earful.
Again, where are all the brown people in the Republican party?
Also, if you listen to Mr. Scates, he reasons supporting McCain due to both of their military experience. I wonder if Mr. Scates is aware of how often McCain voted AGAINST funding for veterans? Just curious.
Looking Up-”From each according to his ability, to each according to his need.” -eh?
And Republicans can be union members too!
