Reply #3: Around my neck of the woods, its racism, pure and simple [View All]

We have all kinds that come to the clinic, and you'd think they would be the ones who'd want health care the most. But they are so blinded by Obama they can't see past his skin tone. Some are religious nutcases who believe their preacher who tells them Obama is the anti-Christ. Others have ties with the KKK. A minority just simply don't trust government, and want to vote everyone out of office. At least they don't see it in a racial context.

What I have found the most effective among this group of people is to ask if they have read the bill. I show them how to read it and where to find it, ending with "I want to make up my own mind." This has been especially effective with the third group. For the others, I give a basic civics lesson as to who writes bills, ending with "Where's OUR Congressman's bill? He has publicly stated what he think needs to be changed . Where's his bill?"
