It never ceases to amaze me how dense people are about the DEMOCRAT party. My dear late mother, a born and bred Mississippian told me in the 60s that Democrats have ALWAYS been on the wrong side concerning integration and all things "racial". I didn't quite understand what she was telling me at the time (young and dumb you see...) but I caught on through her teaching to always look at what people do, how they run their lives, not what they say.
Yes, the Democrats pretty much invented identity politics, and for a while, at least, they will pay the penalty. But this characterization of the two candidates is a flat-out lie, as well.
Hillary is an ambitious Marxist/Lesbian/feminist who has used blacks to climb her way to power, but can scarcely be said to have helped them in any significant way. She has just climbed on their backs, while ensuring that they remain on the plantation.
And Obama used his black ID card to climb his way to power through Harvard and then in a black district in the Chicago area, with the help of his good friends Rev. Wright and Louis Farrakhan--and the Chicago machine, of course, which needed a useful black for that district.
All that stuff about coming together is nothing but empty talk. Try to question him, and he pulls the race card every time.
If Obama truly had been colorblind, he wouldn’t have had a problem. but when it became known that he identified with reverse racist attitudes, nearly fifty years of work to erase racial prejudice in our society came partly unraveled in a hurry. Before, whites just suspected the hatred; with Obama it recame an incontrovertable reality.
Very interesting watching the DemocRATS reap what they have sowed.
If the races reconciled, the Democrat party would be dead in the water.
The Republican party is the true party of racial reconciliation, because it measures people by the content of their character rather than the color of their skin.
Where is the BARF alert?
How stupid does this guy think we are? He may have spent his campaign de-emphasizing race, but his career???
I hardly freakin think so!! 20 years of hate monger Jeremy Wright in a church of black theology, a wife who wrote her college thesis on race and why won't Whitey accept her as an equal, and she'll always be on the fringe in those social circles??
Yeah right. I was born at night but it wasn't last night.

Man, I despise the Democrats.
I really am repulsed by John McCain, too, but I’ll take that jerk over the disgusting socialists in the Democrat party.
Hopefully McCain won’t blow it by embracing another RINO for his Veep.
