Before he was elected....we knew a civil war was coming.

We didn't know ANYTHING Bush did was coming

We didn't KNOW it was coming, the election of Lincoln pushed the South over the edge. If Lincoln hadn't been elected, there probably wouldn't have been a Civil War in 1861. That's not to say that the Civil War would have never happened since Washington was headed towards abolition anyways, but the political stance of Lincoln set secession in motion.

You're a fucking moron if you believe that....less than 150 years ago,colored people were held in slavery,and now we have a black man as President. Give me one election that was more historical than his. You won't be able to because you can't

Maybe if people like you didn't put such an emphasis on skin color it wouldn't matter, ever think about that?

It is historic, but its importance will go down over time. In 1960 many people were shocked that an Irish Catholic could be elected president. 50 years later, JFK being the first Catholic president is just a footnote to his presidency.

yes I am racist because I don't think it's that big of a deal historically compared to everything else that has happened that a black man was elected. Maybe if you got your lips off mj and obama you would take a more realistic approach and not an emotional approach to how you argue your points.


how is obama doing in the polls gibby? how is obama doing to help this economy that THE DEVIL!!! bush so terribly put us in? Obama is doing what most every black man would do if elected to the presidency and that is be more concerned about his ncaa march madness picks and the nba than leading a country...and you can take that to the bank

I don't know which one is worse.
That no one mentioned sq_crazies "How ugly will the collapse of the Celtics be" thread as a signature moment or that I actually went thru nine pages of Gibby defending why MJ should be on the list to see if anyone did mention sq's thread.

Obama's election will be historic only for the fact that he'll go down as the worst president ever.

The death of MJ is not and never should be a signature moment. It shouldn't even be discussed.

Thousands losing their lives due to pure hatred should NEVER be put into the same discussion as the death of an entertainer.

Pure fucking stupidity.

Granted he still has at least 2 years to go, but so far Obama is in the mix with any of those that you listed.
