The Left/Democrat Socialists in this country judge a person first by their politics, followed closely by the color of their skin then their "protected class" status (e.g., female; homosexual; Muslim; etc., etc.). Based on the history of the past 50 years or so, qualities such as values, morals and principles are so far down their list so as to be considered essentially irrelevant.

Although only fractionally "black", Obama is far and firmly to the left, he "looks black" and he is easily molded to what the Democrat Socialist party leaders need ... by their calculation, he is the "perfect candidate".

Without these "qualifications", Obama would have no better chance at being president than does, say, Al Sharpton or the "Rev." Wright.

Even less. Wright, Sharpton and JJ at least have the ability to make rhyme and display an occasional sense of humor.

I'm trying to remember a single incident when BO displayed a genuine sense of humor as opposed to making a flat-out lame attempt at it.
