This is interesting.... John Bootie is an independent candidate with an interesting take on the Obama/Hillary coverage.

“Are you tired of RACE and SEX being a qualifier for OFFICE. Especially for President?”

Yup! It’s the campaign inside the campaign and what those guys are doing has nothing to do with leading this country. Not one ‘journalist’ will touch THAT story, though.

I for one am so tired of the media, force feeding to us the obvious fact that these two candidates (of which there are many more whom they never mention their race or sex) are a woman or black.

What else are they supposed to hang their hats on? Obama's long record of being a leading advocate of nothing? Hillary's distinguished and leading role in criminal conspiracies? Neither has executive experience, neither knows how to run even a large company, and the largest group of people either has managed would be, by extension, their present campaign staff.

There's not a heck of a lot to say about either. They are all bringing out the same topics, cherrypicked from focus groups - health care, economic opportunity, classism, and socialist viewpoints on how corporations need to 'stop robbing the people' while everyone invests in them through their mutual funds.

That Hillary's a woman, or that Obama's a black man, is about all they can say.

I am. Yesterday, the news talking heads spoke of a young woman who was tempted to vote for Obama, but decided to vote for HRC because she didn’t want to look back 10 years from now and think that she had not done her part to elect the first woman prez.

Would that she would worry about electing the BEST prez.

I’m just waiting for people’s heads to explode when their choices are Obama or Romney.

Invest in popcorn no matter who your candidate is.

Well, if they hadn't taken me to adobe to download shockwave, I'd read the rest of it.

In this election is matters; sometimes it wouldn't matter a bit. I would welcome a black POTUS or VP or a female. Just not either of these two and not while we are fighting radical jihadis.

The media no longer reports the news, they try and make the news. I’m tired of Mexican-Americans, African-Americans, Chinese-Americans, etc, etc. Just be Americans and they’ll most likely be accepted.

I think that its kind of funny that Hillary won by playing an Oprah trick - shedding a tear.

Oprah won her audience of middle class white women by shedding a tear on at the appropriate time.

I think the article is exaggerating about gender.
Just being a woman is not enough.
You have to be able to cry too.

“Get over it, Slavery was over, 243 years ago.”

Slavery ended in 1765? News to me.

OBAMA’S ‘CLOSE FRIEND’ A BLOODTHIRSTY MUSLIM EXTREMIST.LINK.

Raila Odinga has, in his own words, a “close personal friendship” with Barrack Hussein Obama Junior. When Obama went to Kenya in August of 2006, he was hosted by Raila and spoke in praise of him at rallies in Nairobi… Obama’s bias for his fellow Luo was so blatant that a Kenya government spokesman denounced Obama during his visit as Raila’s “stooge.”

Kenya's Odinga Declares Obama His Cousin as PeaceTalks Called Off.LINK.
