  30. hihaters08 July 28th, 2008 at 10:00 am

    I really like these sneakers. Besides them being hot 2 death the reason behind combining sneakers and politics is however you have to grab your audience attention you do it. WHITE OR BLACK who doesn’t like a fresh pair of AF1′S, or fashion for that matter. To the ignorant whitey I bet when your cracker kids went to all those schools and killed all those innocent people do you think they were wearing sneakers or loafers. Get the fuck outta here with that dumb shit. OBAMA 08 LET’S MAKE A CHANGE.

  36. Maria August 27th, 2008 at 11:43 pm

    I am not voting for Obama. I am not black nor am I white but I some times think black people are more racist. Because to me some not all white people dont like black people but they dont just run around say nigger to every black person they see. I often see black people say honky or cracka to white people. Its like black people are racist and dont give a fuck if white people know they dont care if they feel bad. Not all black people but some. I think white even though they are racist they still wont try to make a black person feel bad. See I live in college park or collipark as most black people here call it and I see why more racist black people than white.Granted there is way more black people but still I have never once been called spic or wet back by a white person but black people who dont even know me yell those words at me they be like ‘Spic bitch get fuck off my block hoe’ I dont know. I am not racist my boyfriends black and so is my best friend. Oh but those shoes …. EWW!!!

  37. Brandon September 11th, 2008 at 5:02 pm

    Well Well Well It Really Is Funny To Me How People As A Whole Dont Get The Message Obama Is Tryin To Get Across To America…Obama Stands For Unity He Wants To Bring About A Change….Its Funny How People Can Call Themselves Respectable Americans But They Have To Make Racial Remarks About People Of My Color….These Shoes Look Great And I Would Wear Them Not Because Obama Is Black, But Because He Stands For Equal Opportunity, Unity Among Various Races, He Stands For Many Things And Dreams. The Same Dreams Dr. Martin Luther King, Rosa Parks, And Many Other Great Civil Rights Adovactes Believed In…And As They Stood Tall And Firm, If I Had These Shoes My Main Reason For Wearing Them Would Be To Stand On The Same Principles The Greats Before Me Stood On….So If People Want To Act And Say Stupid Comments Let Them, But My Black People Let Us Be Greater. Let Us Continue To Strive And Let The World Know That We Will Not Let The Dreams Of Our Fore Fathers Die…As For Kool said And White Rich Keep Hatin. Because One Day When Obama Is President People Like Me Will Look And At People Like U And Say “Free At Last, Free At Last, Thank God Ol Might Were Free At Last”

  41. Alyssea November 4th, 2008 at 2:19 am

    Of course (white) people are voting for Obama, thats all apart of “unity, equality” chang that he is talking about. I understand that people think that raising taxes on the wealthy is giving a “handout” to the middle class, but think about itmost wealthy peopl are rich beacuse of family or friends gave it them which in perspective is a “handout”. Now i watch both rallies and debates, and you constantly hear McCain talk bout the fact that Obama wants to raise taxes on the wealthy and a break for the workin middle class, but not once have i heard him say what exactly what he was going to do to change and fix the economy.Please tell me what is wrong with spreading the wealth? If you are a hard worker doing your part in society in the middle class during this economic hardship, you are barely stretching a dollar to cover food, healthcare,bills,clothing,water,clothing, and possibly a few wants, why wouldn’t you want the money to be spread around so we can get out of this rut and on our feet? How can you go through these tough struggles and not want us to stand together as we say we do and do whats necessary? We are Americans who feed and take pride on being an example for the rest of the world on we are supposed to come together as one…”one nation under GOD indivisable for Liberty and Justice FOR ALL” what better example of that than comeing together and helping one another by spreading the only thing thats going to help us get out of this rut than money. Spread it around to help us get out of this $3 Trillion dollar debt, which in-turn will help us get our full independence.

    obama is the winner and the best this boot are very cool I LOVE NIKE AIR FORCE ONE ps and Obama this is my top faforite

  43. tina November 7th, 2008 at 11:34 am

    I wonder why we don’t hear anything from the white powers……lol….Anywho, with all do respect we are all immagrants to America with the exception of the native indians and what just happened on Nov. 4th was and is history and a white woman I am very proud of my country to have shown not only the American people but the world that we are not so closed minded and that not only people of European decent born in America can have the American dream but anyone of any nationality born in America can have a true American dream. With that being said I would like for each and everyone who read this to dream big and open your minds to more intelligent thoughts, because that crap I was reading earlier from earlier post was garabage! Peace and yes I did Barock the Vote!!!!!

  44. NICE SHOES November 8th, 2008 at 8:04 am

    GREAT SHOES,

  45. Jay Kay November 8th, 2008 at 3:42 pm

    Why cant everyone focus on the persons beliefs and personality instead of their fucking skin. . .all this shit racist shit is pathetic i know the reality is that its hard for blacks and whites to get along because we all are different. . .and frankly not to be an asshole but there is a big difference between black people and those some consider to be niggers. . .not all black people skam, do drugs, kill, are ignorant or obnoxious. . .im actullay good friends with alot of decent guys and girls that are black their just like white people except obviously their black. . .like i said it shouldnt be the skin color we look at or where they came from but who they are as people the same thing goes for black people not all whites and racist and you shouldn’t treat every white person you see like they are. . .we all need to change and start treating people like people. . .i suggest you all listen to some tupac. . .maybe smoke a J and then see how you feel. . .and fyi i voted for obama and would sell one of my left arm for those shoes. . .peace

  46. MISS STEP November 8th, 2008 at 11:24 pm

    We are all entitled to our own opinion. Personally I like the shoe. But it has been taken to another level. Why not come on here with a civilized comment? It does not matter what color we are. Jehovah God looks at the heart of us. This negativity does not make any sense. If McCain would have won, there still would be hostility and it’s really sad that people are so ignorant to unity. WHY SO MUCH HATE?

  47. OBAMA November 14th, 2008 at 1:27 pm
