He could have done better. And he was the Magic Negro for some time before the financial collapse, so it wasn't just that. At that point, we had a choice between him and McCain. Prior to that, he was the Magic Anti-Bush Negro. <snip> > Well, I voted for a magic negro. A common theme in recent > literature and movies which feature James Earl Jones and > Denzel Washington. And Morgan Freeman, and Michael Clarke Duncan (the guy in Green Mile, literally a Magic Negro), Laurence Fishburne, even Sidney Poitier in some of his films. Son of the Noble Savage stereotype. White folks' stereotypes. Sick. Even Mark > Twain wrote about a magic negro.

White people are just that crappy. There are other reasons to vote for him, though: the Republicans would be worse.
