Life is not about that, its about human enlightment and social development.
Those who believe they are superior just because they belong to some special group should get the Darwin Award.
Sry, but this subject piss me off.

i think it is important for the bnp to clarify their stance on race supremecy, the reason that they get their votes is because their policies are what the majority of english people want, i could never bring myself to vote for them as i am not a racist, however, i do not ignore the natural traits of other nationalities to make myself feel better about myself, there is an old saying "just because they are a minority, doesn't mean they're not arseholes", please excuse the bad language but that is the way the saying goes. the bnp has a lot of racism in their ranks which is a shame because they are proud of their country, but the race hate makes national pride seem dirty

yes, but why did you denote a cool smiley when referencing an area that was not "British white"- why would it matter if it was "British white people"?

A "national identity" is a perception, and it only exists in the mind of the observer. Everyone is different, even in this little country, and there are so many complicated cultural layers that intermingle with each other to make it impossible to establish a British "identity".
For example, I don't identify with Jade Goody, Heat Magazine, Big Brother, The Sun, bingo, Lilly Allen, Britain's Got Talent, etc. Those things seem quite typically British to a lot (maybe the majority) of Brits - does that make me un-British?
not specifically because it was not mainly "british white people" then

If you feel shame for britain simply due to the fact that the BNP got a few seat's in the Eu you need to unplug and take a walk.

There is always this racism thing where only whites are racist. What about white peoples rights, lol.

Blacks voted for McCain too. The voters in US vote for the party and not the race. Blacks had 'sympathy' for Obama and he got some votes for that, but blacks and others voted for Republicans too
[edit on 8-6-2009 by sunny_2008ny]
I think it was 90%+ blacks voting for the black candidate wasn't it- combination of race and democrat identity politics at play there
Outside the South, Obama did best among nonblacks in counties with more blacks. Inside the South, he did best among nonblacks in counties with fewer blacks. This has got to be an urban-rural thing as much as anything else
