Bill Clinton: Obama Is Just Like Jesse Jackson (On Drudge)
ABC News ^ | January 26, 2008 8:18 PM | Jake Tapper

Said Bill Clinton today in Columbia, SC: "Jesse Jackson won South Carolina in '84 and '88. Jackson ran a good campaign. And Obama ran a good campaign here."

This was in response to a question about Obama saying it "took two people to beat him." Jackson had not been mentioned.

Boy, I can't understand why anyone would think the Clintons are running a race-baiting campaign to paint Obama as "the black candidate."

The Clintons do everything for a reason. Surely they must know that attacking Obama is going to infuriate a lot of Dim voters. That’s why I think Obama is in on this whole thing. They’ll argue and bicker and then set their differences aside for the greater good of all mankind (can’t you just see that headline on the cover of Newsweek)?

Obama probably figures that he can be VP for 4 or 8 years and then run for president again after that. I may be wrong, but this “fighting” just seems a little too over the top for me.

Didn’t Jesse the preacher man pardon Bill Clinton for the same sins he was evidently also committing, and Bill the peeking sinner man accept that at one time, as a lone hand extended in support? The impeached one is surely quick to turn against former dupes, in his quest to sneak around the 22nd amendment.

It’s pure theater.

When she offers Obama the VP spot, it will be hailed as the greatest re-unification the world has seen East and West Germany. And black Democrats will forget why they were ever angry at the Clintons and vote as they always do.

Oh, come on - when the black candidate gets 80%+ of the black vote, it’s hard not to inject race into it.

I agree completely and the MSM will love every minute of it. Hopefully people won’t be that stupid and really be turned off by the whole affair.

“Oh, come on - when the black candidate gets 80%+ of the black vote, it’s hard not to inject race into it.”

so how do u explain Bill Clinton getting over 80% of the Black vote when he ran for President.
Was it a race issue then?

How come Jackson and Sharpton aren’t endorsing a BLACK nominee, Obama?

I think J Jackson has quietly endorsed Obama - while Mrs. J. Jackson has endorsed Hillary.
