There are pundits, politicians and former presidents claiming the opposition to President Obama's policies are rooted in racism. There are race related problems in our country, but this opposition is a reflection of the President's policies, not the color of his skin. Since he was inaugurated, Obama has shown his radical left tendencies. Obama was elected with 69 million votes; 45 million of these votes were cast by white people.On February 18, Obama'sapproval rating was 61%. On September 19, that approval rating had slipped to 49%, which is a decline of 12% ( about 15 million voters). I do not believe the 12% of voters who had a change of heart about the President's policiessuddenly became racists. I do believe they realized their belief in an inexperienced leader was misplaced. In 2008 there were 28 million registered Independent voters (21 percent of the electorate). The Independents overwhelmingly chose to vote for Obama. I would assume many of the 15 million voters who changed their mind are these Independent voters. I wonder-- Do these 15 million people like it when the Democrats call them racist? I'll bet not.
