To Whom It May Concern:

Stop telling me I'm a racist because I'm not voting for Barack Obama.  I do not care about the color of his skin.  I care about what he stands for, such as the following ...

... banning private handgun ownership.

... opposing government vouchers allowing parents to place children in the school of their choice.

... prioritizing

why is it that people are so willing to give up their rights to the government?

I must say, before I begin, that I agree with Obama on all of those things except for partial-birth abortion and the born-alive infants protection act, and I am voting for him.

But the fact that people are calling you racist just because you're not voting for him is pure bullcrap. You should be able to support the candidate that best promotes your ideals without getting any flak for it whatsoever. Next time someone does it to you, I recommend telling them they must be racist against white people. =P It might throw them for so much of a loop that they'll stay off your back about it.
