After what I perceived were intelligent questions on my behalf that I prefaced did NOT reflect my personal beliefs...he quickly attacked me & said, "you sound like a sell out who critiques black people," rather than asking my questions.I helped out on Obama's political campaign and volunteered at several rallies. I read his books, etc...just to let you know his argument was moot.While I do like Obama's platform, I think it's fair to ask questions about his political efforts. I do not think asking simple questions, such as, "why did you vote for Obama?" or "what do you like about him?" Etc constitutes selling out...So how do you deal with someone who argues using ad hominen attacks?</blockquote>
