African American man elected Govenor of Massachusetts

Being that Massachusetts is like 90% White on top of which it's one of the most racist states in the nation -I would know, i live here- I was shock to know that Deval Patrick (D) , a black guy, won a post that has never had a person of color.

He's the first African American to be a Mass. Governor ever since the states' inception in the early 1600's.

Although I fear for his life, he should do a fine job until he's assassinated, lol.

Just kiddin'. He'll be fine... I think.

And your point is to say you're happy or upset that progress has been made, at least on the lines of possible racism in your states politics?

Here, I edited your question to save some effort and possibly answer it at the same time.

Why would i be upset if progress was made. I love progress and I guess I'm glad he was elected but that his election had anything to do with reverse racism/white guilt, is another issue.

Damn.... Botankus nailed you dead to rights. I salute you Botankus!

its sad that a black man cannot be recognised as having earned his position
in office without racists like FotN crediting the color of his skin and not the
content of his character

Becareful, your "white guilt" is showing...

yeah, you're right...he's just a token black governor.
either that or there has to be a recount because something went wrong

Yeah, hooray. I elect black politicans all the time. I care more about what they do in office than their skin color.

Massachusetts must not be that racist after all if he won, hm?

America got its first Muslim representative, too. Progress all over the place.

First socialist in the Senate.

With people like you living in Mass I am not surprised it is the most racist state. Why cant you just look at people and not their color?

who cares.. all politicians are the same.. deserve more bullets than they do votes...

Haha, the way you phrased that you implied if it was up to skin colour black people would be worse to vote for....racist...not as much as FotN, but still.

are you serious? no one who lives in massachusetts can seriosly be shocked that deval won. He had like a 20 point lead day before election day. there was no chance healy would win.
on i side not (i'm definitely being biased and defensive here but...) massachusetts is definitely nt the most racist state in the union. but we already know you're credible. you were surprised deval won

Re: African American man elected Govenor of Massachusetts
