Obama is the antichrist, we are all doomed.
"You have heard that Antichrist cometh" (1 John 2:18); "This is Antichrist, of whom you have heard that he cometh" (1 John 4:3). Though the Apostle speaks of several Antichrists, he distinguishes between the many and the one principal agent: "Antichrist cometh, even now there are become many Antichrists" (1 John 2:18). Again, the writer outlines the character and work of Antichrist: "They went out from us, but they were not of us" (1 John 2:19); "Who is a liar, but he who denies that Jesus is the Christ? This is Antichrist, who denies the Father, and the Son" (1 John 2:22); "And every spirit that dissolveth Jesus, is not of God; and this is Antichrist" (1 John 4:3); "For many seducers are gone out into the world, who confess not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh: this is a seducer and an Antichrist" (2 John 7). Also the time, the Apostle places the coming of Antichrist at "the last hour" (1 John 2:18); again he maintains that "he is now already in the world" (1 John 4:3).

It really is a shame that most black people voted for a man soley on the fact that he is black. Instead of voting for a man due to his policies, people voted just because he was black...shameful. I would have no problem if this man won because people believed in his policies. However, people I ask don't even know what his policies are, just that he stood for change. This was a popularity contest. We need the RIGHT black man as president, not just any black man. We just voted for any black man. If you disagree, please explain to me what exactly his credentials are to be President of the U.S.? What has he done?

You are missing the whole pont. It is not about race. What is is about is the people voting for who they feel can set this country back on track. Howver, al;ong with that he happens to be an African American. People are so elated because for the first time in history, an African American has been elected for President of the United States of America, No, it not about race. It is about change. It is about us coming together finally as a nation without looking at the color of someone's skin color. You are not consiered a rqcist because you talk about white history. We have listened to white history all our lives. So don't hate because we are proud that Barack Obama has made history. You probably will never understand.

Basketball happens to be this man's job just like the job you have. He has the right to express his feelings just like you do. Stop being so judgemental and try for once to have a positive attitude so we can get this country back on its feet.

@wes ... How is it campaigning if Obama's already been elected to office? He's reacting, not promoting. And last I checked, pro athletes were still American citizens, meaning they're allowed to have opinions; even those you might not agree with.

Dear Wes and Dumbfounded, The mere fact that the two of you are voicing those comments and don't hear how you sound, speaks to the very reason why this is such an important moment in BLACK HISTORY. For the first time in a long time American's did the RIGHT THING. Bosh is not an idiot, he is a PROUD BLACK AMERICAN, which at this very moment he has every right to be. Further more, we do have the RIGHT BLACK MAN in office now. A highly educated, strong, intelligent blackman, not one with a "C" average or a washed up warhero living in the past or a 4 communitiy college graduate with an 8 year bachelor degree. Additionally, with respect to PRESIDENT OBAMA's policies most black american's read them online. If your above comments are reflective of how you feel the day after America elected its first Black President, you should seriously get on your knees and ask God to move within your heart. Change starts on the inside. Lastly, we've been living whitehistory for centuries now, look where it got us.

We say black history because that is what it's been called. American history (although it involves slavery and the struggle out of it) is, according to the school system, or at least it seems to me that it never included black americans. They've been called African Americans to make sure that everybody remembers their roots and never thinks of blacks as just Americans. The natives have also have a prefix added to their names, Native Americans. And that leaves the whites, who are of course just Americans, and not European Americans.
As a black man I did not vote for him because of his race, I would not have voted for Condoleeza Rice had she been on McCain's ticket.
And yes, part of the reason his got the landslide win was because of the fail policies of the current administration. But just remember the country elected President Elect Obama, not the blacks or the "African Americans." It's time to pull together and be real Americans under our new leader.

I have no problem with what Bosh said. He is proud and he has every right to be. The problem I have with all the negative comments about President Obama is that the same people who say black people voted for him because he was black didn't vote for him because he was black. Blacks only make up 13% of U.S. population so obviously it was mor ethan just Blacks who put him in office. I voted for President Obama and I am very proud on him being our next commander and chief. I am also proud that he is Black because it is history making. I was happy to see a black man running and it's not from police on my local news or some episode of cops. stop hatin and get over yourselves. I have been taught about white history all my life. It's wonderful and inspiring to see what President Obama has achieved!!!
