I didn't vote for Trump, but if Obama (who I did vote for) had used a racial slur, I'd have a seriously difficult time believing he was representative of all citizens, and subsequently couldn't vote for him. I've made it my whole like without saying the n-word and it really isn't hard to do. I would expect that as the starting point for anyone who would lead the nation.

@whynottalk If you have to ask that question, you need a more rudimentary education than I have time to offer here. But I suggest you look into it.

@whynottalk I don't even know where to start with this. One, don't call people slurs. Just don't. Just. Don't.
Two, yes, there are racists and bigots of all persuasions. That's the funny thing; racism always seems to be more about class and education than any actual human attributes.
Three, Black people aren't "always using the race card." Some do. Many more have a legitimate argument. The playing field isn't level and we don't all start at the same place. Add to that institutionalized racism, oppression, ignorance and persistent denial of equal rights and you'll find it's hard to pull oneself up by the boot straps when you don't have them to begin with.
Four, we don't need "white history month" because we're the majority. Every day is white history day. Our history hasn't been overlooked, usurped or hijacked. We've never been denied a place in history and no one overlooks white contributions to this white society.
Who taught you to think like this? Trust me, you're missing so much in life by excluding other people for petty but deadly reasons. You may be overlooking some people who'd turn out to be some of your best friends and colleagues.
