America rejecting socialism, not minorities

To the Editor:

The Obama administration just received a great backlash against its agenda of big government, entitlements, socialized medicine, socialized economy and the reduction of freedoms for the American people.

Many of those who were elected in the midterm landslide did so because of the rejection of all these policies, not because the president is an African-American minority and that many of his supporters are such.

Any attempt to connect these events to racism is misguided and not true; America is rejecting the Congress and Obama administration’s ruling philosophy and goals of big government and the enslavement of America, not the minorities who support him.
