... In the case of a Harry Reid or a Joe Biden in 2008, there was an almost gushing relief that a black candidate for president did not sound or act “black.”

This is something that has always bothered me. I have thought from the beginning that Obama sounds black. But I suppose my ears are lying to me since others don't seem to perceive it that way.

(Should Obama try to emulate the way he thinks gays and Jews talk in his next address to them?)

Obama’s best chance against Cain would be for Obama to declare himself a W.A.S.P.

the liberal-progressives are embarrassed by cain’s southern drawl. likewise, the rino-progressives are embarrassed by cain.

I'm embarrassed to have to say that these statist "progs" have to be called "Americans", and that we can't dump them on somebody else.

I have thought from the beginning that Obama sounds black.

That is all affectation he learned from Wright et al. He never had any exposure to black diction in Hawaii -- Hanson made that point. Chicago blacks are about two generations removed from their Mississippi roots, but Obama was nearly in his 30's before he moved there.

Oh, no, I grew up on a little dirt farm in South Carolina. I have been stung by big, black wasps before.
