I’d sure like to know what his basis for this is. As far as I’ve seen, the GOP has gone out of its way to avoid any mention of his color.
As a matter of fact, the only ones mentioning color are his former church clergy.
And remember how Bill Clinton played the race card in the primaries. Comparing Obama to Jesse Jackson’s campaigns for president was a not too subtle comparison of a characteristic they share.
And Hillary said how “hard working Americans, white Americans” were behind her campaign. It sure seems like fellow Democrats have kept reminding us that Obama is black/African-American/Halfrican American/something other than vanilla.
