Randy Newman sings the race card for the left

Wednesday, September 19, 2012
posted by Poway Roger

It is very sad the left has decided the only way to win this presidential election is to play the race card. I’ve mentioned this in a previous post.

But what got me going today is the new Randy Newman song, “I’m Dreaming”– where he sings of voting for a “white” president.

I hope this song insults everyone on all sides of the political spectrum, because of its inherent ignorant hatred.  Yes, I acknowledge there will be people on BOTH sides that will be voting for either Obama or Romney based on race alone.  Yet, I have never used race as a factor in my voting. For someone to even consider race would prove them a racist.  I vote for the best qualified person on the ballot, in my view. To even consider race as a factor would be like using a quota system for preference of one group over another.

Does it matter that Newman is a known supporter of Obama? Is there any chance he might have written this to swing votes to Obama? You be the judge.

I will be voting for Romney, and for anyone to call me a racist for doing so, I’m sad to say, is truly ignorant.

    Well, it’s been 34 years since Newman charted. I suspect after a successful career composing movie scores, he decided to reuse the hyperbolic, satiric diddy model for fame.

    I wonder if the Maryland Legislature will try to ban this one?
