Sheesh, I saw this on the news last night and about lost it. Hillary made the assertion that the GOP was using race as a political tool.

Huh?

That's the bread and butter play of the DNC.

Democrats emphasize race-baiting because they need near-unanimous, near-universal black turnout to win at the national level currently. Blacks represent one-eighth of the population and one-ninth of all voters, but one-third of Democrat votes.

A relevant question is why should Democrats nominate a Caucasian woman of English ancestry born in an all-White Chicago suburb to upper middle class parents when the party's base is disproportionately black, urban, and working class? Nominating Al Sharpton would reflect the party's base. Rodham talks about a government that reflects America. If the incubus believes what it says, it should step aside for a black to represent New York and the nation.
