Im a working class blue collar voter, and so are all my friends. Guess who we are supporting? Obama.
But lets have a look at the states he has won that are predominatly white and chalk full of middle class folks who often times turned out in record numbers to support him.
Iowa, Maine, Colorado, North Dakota, Kansas, Idaho, Alaska, Minnesota, Nebraska, Washington, Delaware, Missouri, Texas, Utah, Wisonsin.
I just gave you a list of 15 states, most of whom had record turnouts for this primary, and they are a mix of red and blue states, but the one thing they have in common is they are mostly white, mostly working class. He won all of these. I could go on, but I think the proof is in the pudding. He can win the working class voters and he has.
This whole notion about him being an elitist and not capturing middle class voters is just a bunch of parrots repeating what your talk radio and cable pundits tell you to.
Everyone seem to be overlooking at the methods of attack by his opponents. How in the fuck can Hillary and McCain claim with a straight face that he is an elitist, especially when it comes to those two, or "Rush get me some more pills Limbaugh"
Do you know why he appeals to regular people, because he is honest, he doesnt attack like the others, he lets his policies and his vision for the country speak for itself. What the average middle class American is sick of, is the same bad actors getting recycled in the same tired roles. He is a human being, not a robot. Sure he isnt perfect and nobody is, and if you are looking for perfection in a President you need to move to somewhere else because you will be disappointed in America.
Why cant we collectively raise above this bullshit after 5 years of war, and 8 years of divisiveness. It is time for change. I am not better off now than I was 8 years ago, I am not better off than I was even 4 years ago. I am a hell of a lot worse off to be honest, and I know Im not the only one. So why would I want more of the same?
