But what if redeeming our shameful racial past is one factor for some?

I don't think it's about guilt anymore. That's just an act. It's about the lib's revenge. That's why the libs nominated someone so heinous as Obama. They knew that today's PC culture would assault anyone with sincere reservations.

Democrats do have some reasons for feeling guilty about race. They were the party that fought for slavery,imposed the Jim Crow laws and opposed civil rights legislation. They are right to feel guilty.
