Here's a link to the thread about Clinton's speech...
Clinton woos black voters

Quote...
I remember literacy tests most whites in the South couldn't have passed," he said. "I remember us and them.

Implying that if a white can't pass the test--a black person would have NO chance ???

Also...
It is a race in which blacks are considered to be the deciding factor, and Mr. Clinton warned against politicians who would divide the people into "us" and "them." He recalled a time, growing up in the South, when blacks were herded on the back of trucks by "beady-eyed white guys."

Warns about being divisive...and then makes the "beady-eyed white guys "herding" blacks" statement -- unfrickin'- believable !

When Jeb wins will the talking heads be talking about the lack of coat tails for Clinton? Will they bring up the fact that Clinton had a lot on the line? I don't think so.
