I think the man before the cameras tonight is the same man on his ranch in Crawford. I don't think he gives, really, two flying figs about race "opinions" on his presidential orders, suggestions, proposals.
I can understand, sorely, your hurt for him, in light of all the verbal and emotional abuse levelled at him by the cranially-impaired, and therefore tourettially-suffering-perpetually Dems and Libs -- but -- I don't think he sees himself as a victim. He's an adult. He knows who he is, and what he's about. He's got a job to do, and he does it.
He's not running for President, again. Why in God's good name would he "pander" to anyone? The man is educated. Has a good grasp of history. He knows. He knows exactly how this is going to layout 100 years from now. And the beneficiaries in America of his plans and proposals will, to my estimate, proclaim him one of the wisest, most tried by public court, Presidents throughout American history.
He really is, about a united America. And united Americans.
If I didn't know better, I'd say you were his husband :).
