The Bill Comes Due

Mr. clyburn would be of better service if he would try to find out why so many black people who are Sen. Clinton’ supporters-being told to be silent.
and why he thinks it is o.k. for the black talk radio stations to say
vote for the brother no matter what.
mr. clyburn-What do you say about the black people who are being threatened for Supporting Sen. Clinton?
Mr. Clyburn-start an investigation to see if obama supporters have had a hand in the silencing of the black Sen. Clinton supporters?

Everyone seems to miss the main point of why Hillary is losing. Over half the people polled believe Hillary Clinton is a LIAR/Untrustworthy. You cannot keep changing directions and messages as well as facts and still expect anyone to believe you. She did this to herself and although I feel sorry for her I gladly support a nominee who stands taller.

So, Jim Clyburn rambles about the race card, and well he should.
Clyburn’s own political track record shows that, over the course of his own political career, he has consistently played the same race card when such behavior suits his purpose–the same race card Clyburn credits to President Clinton.
Indeed, the race card is now the feature issue of the Obama campaign with the continued presence of the racist, hate-mongering, divisive, treason spewing Jeremiah Wright on national television.
While Wright continues to suggest his association with Obama is spiritual, not political, the political fallout continues to hemmorage any Obama efforts to court white, working class voters as evidenced in the most recent primary in Pennsylvania.
Whether you agree with the political/sprirtual assessment of the continuing Democratic battle or not, this much is certain:
The tone of the Democratic nomination process has been produced and fostered by fatally flawed rules created by the same flawed leadership.
Party rules and rulings that allow for the skewed misrepresentation by caucus-produced delegates and the disenfranchisement of millions of voters in Florida and Michigan have doomed the party’s chances in November regardless of the nominee.
While the Republicans may not have the superior candidate in the view of many voters, those same voters will not choose White House rule and leadership from a party that cannot rule and lead itself.

jgaw,
Wonderful point! One would think that Sen. Clyburn would be infintely interested in the fact that black Clinton supporters have been harassed and even threatened for not supporting Obama. Sen. Clyburn is/was an ardent civil rights leader. He also stands idly by in the face of millions of disenfrancised voters in MI and FL. I assume he is in a very difficult position, given he represents South Carolina. In many ways he represents more than just SC though. He is a well respected civil rights leader so his voice carries beyond his jurisdicition. I am amazed though that he does not see the insult to Jesse Jackson, while he decries the comparison to Obama.

Hillary could not be where she is now if it was not Bill and the recognition of the name Clinton.
Obama deserves a big credit because he is competing with two people who were established more than 2 decades ago and still he has emerged as a frontrunner.
The question should go to the Clintons: Why haven’t they been able to take Obama down??????

Excellent information that I was not aware of from “countallthevotes.”
I would also add that the penalty placed on Florida Democrats was not the result of their decisions.
Rather, it was the Republican majority in Florida that decided when the primary vote would be held, not the Democrats.
A state (states) that produces significant electoral presence in November and could likely determine the outcome of the election is given to the Republicans by rules produced by the flawed leadership and governing rules of the Democratic Party.
The issue of the additional three states is one that needs to be confronted and investigated much, much further and without delay.
DNC…are you listening?

African American leaders like Mr. Clyburn insinuating that voters will stay home or vote for the GOP, may put in jeopardy other Black candidates in the November ballots.
Mr. Jim Clyburn, and other leaders comments may be increasing the perception among all voters since the last debate that Barack Obama “cannot stand the heat”.

How can reasonable people consider the possible co-presidency of Hillary and Bill Clinton after we’ve already had two terms of it? They wanted that third term and are using devious means to obtain it. It should not be allowed to happen.

The Obama camp is playing the race card, as clearly shown by Mr Clyburns remarks, timed to try to distract people from Rev Wright.
This is all Obama has been doing since NH to try to gain votes.
It’s getting really tedious. Do people really want to spend the next 8 years being accused of racism every time they question the president or his “friends”.
Mr Obama is unqualified for the job. That has nothing to d with race.

Once again the race card appears and it makes me angry that he makes Bill a racist when Bill has done more for the black community than he ever thought of doing.
But, as we are all beginning to see, its the only thing Obamas got to win the election. Because it sure is not about the issues we face as Americans. His “change” on the issues is the same message as Hillarys, but flawed with his
inability to elaborate on those differences. His “patriotism” is based on “street cred” in America, but yet he still has citizenship in Kenya and has yet to prove what difference he made in the past because his past is off limits due to the “race” card being used by his campaign. He has the most evil, fear mongering, campaign strategist in David Axelrod, who is affliiated with the worst kind of people in Chicago and will go to any means to get him elected, no matter who he steps on, including a former President of the United States who actually did much good for our country.
But, I feel everyone, including some of his supporters, should begin to ask themselves, is he really the one you want to “hire” to run our country and bring peace to the world. How can you when he cannot even unite America without bringing about divide with race innuendos.
My vote is for Hillary because she is not about race. She is about “everyone” no matter what race you are. And she always has been. We have seen her live out her life in public so we know all about her. We have not seen that with Obama and most likely wont as long as his supporters, and the media, keep it from us because of race.
The only loser in this election are those who choose because of race instead of the one who is most qualified to make our country better. Its not about “change” anymore because they both are offering the same things, but with different views on how to get it done. So, its time to choose on “heart and soul” and who genuinely has the guts and the courage to take care of us domestically and internationally. And I believe its Hillary. Her record speaks for itself, his does not.
Hillary 08-12

I just need to post these rules again for people. In the words of Obama ” I borrowed them”.
The Clinton Rules
1. If anything bad happens to the Democrats in this campaign, it can and should be blamed on Hillary Clinton.
2. Every statement of any supporter or surrogate of Hillary Clinton is a reflection of Hillary Clinton’s personal views or directives.
3. If Hillary Clinton gets the nomination (through her evil machinations) and loses, it will be the fault of Hillary Clinton and her supporters.
4. Any votes that Hillary Clinton receives from Independents and Republicans are due to their interest in preventing Sen. Obama from becoming the Democratic nominee and defeating Sen. John McCain. After all, the GOP wants to run against Hillary Clinton in the Fall!
5. If Hillary Clinton attempts to work the completely screwed up primary system to her advantage, it represents vote-stealing and cheating.
The Obama Rules
1. If anything good happens to the Democrats in this campaign, it can and should be attributed to Sen. Barack Obama.
2. NOT every statement of any prominent supporter or surrogate of Barack Obama is a reflection of Barack Obama’s personal views or directives.
3. If Sen. Obama gets the nomination and loses, it will be the fault of Hillary Clinton and her supporters.
Any votes that Sen. Obama receives from 4. Independents and Republicans are a result of his uplifting and positive campaign of hope, change and unity and his incredible coattails – and not because they are just becoming Democrats for a day. After all, isn’t it ridiculous that Democrats alone are allowed to pick the Democratic nominee?
5. If Sen. Obama attempts to work the completely screwed up primary system to his advantage, it represents hope, optimism and change and a reflection of the will of the people.

Jim Clyburn is about as neutral as Michelle Obama and it is absurd for the press to keep reporting his comments while stating that he is neutral. Just read what he said: “and get them to vote for the nominee if you have done all these things and said all of these things about HIM”. There’s only one him in the race. what about the people running around saying all of these things abour her? which there is just as much if not more of

And Hillary said this was HER campaign. Yeah right!
Bill needs to shut the heck up. I can just invision him in the back of that pickup truck in NC. He used that same tactic here in Texas pandering to everyone who would gather and listen to him. Now they are pulling the pickup truck up next to voting centers.
There is no shred of dignity left in this shell of a man, oh but wait there never was!
He is desperate to get his wife elected so he can repay all those political favors owed to his Library and Foundation. He is desperate to put all those free trade agreements into play so he can scoop up the money off the backs of what is left of hard working Americans.
When you have Rush Limbaugh telling you to vote for Hillary you really ought to stop and wonder why.

Dear “Ted,”
I’d like you to do your research on Obama’s association with all of those people before you make such a comment. First of all, how is Obama connected to Saddam Hussein? Is is because his middle name happens to be Hussein? Are we really going to be that dumb? Second, if you’re going to talk about association with Ayers, please don’t leave out Bill Clinton’s PARDONING of members of Weather Underground. Third, since we’re talking about Jeremiah Wright, please know that the Clintons used him as one of their “healers” during the Lewinsky scandal. They loved him then. I have no problem with Reverend Wright, but since he’s such a sore subject, let’s get both side out there, shall we?? One more thing, please list all questionable people the Clintons have been connected to the next time you want to make a point about the folks these politicians choose to hang with. The list will be very long and may take all day, but you can do it.

To Senator Clayburn..There are more Whites and Latinos thnt there are Blacks..so I believe you will be out voted…

I think the FUNNIEST thing of all is a black candidate getting 90% of the black vote -and that INST racist . No , its their OPPONENTS FAULT somehow.
Think it might be because Obama is black so they are all voting for him because he is black and a real candidate?
Nobody gets 90% of any democratic freely elected vote. 90% vote is reserved for communist countrys with one name on the ballot.

Over 15 million democrats disagree!

Come on now Mr. Clyburn, I said it first. Hillary will be too old to run in another 8 years. She either wins now or make sure Obama fails so that she can run again in 2008 against McCain. That has been her strategy ever since supper Tuesday. When “I am more prepared to be president” did not work she went to the mud pile and started throwing mud.

Mr. clyburn and Obama campaing are playing the race card. I don’t think Clinton’s family is racist.
They did a lot of good things for black communities but they don’t recognize when the black candidate is this race.

The last time i looked, Wild Bill was undefeated in championship games. The man knows how to win elections. He can say what Hillary cant. So until proven otherwise, Bill is the best(and worst)thing Hillary has going for her! Expect things to get wild and wolly down the stretch. In the end, all the attention may help more than hurt her. We will see!!!

The party elders are upset because the people love Bill Clinton, and he and his ungrateful wife are standing in the way of the annointing of the “chosen one” for the Democratic nominee. If Obama is the nominee, he has already lost the GE because of this vicious labeling of the Clintons as “racists” by the Obama campaign. The DNC thinks we will just roll over and play nice if they crown Obama, despite the continuing support of Hillary by core Democrats, and the obvious fact that her experience and judgment are far superior to that of the junior Senator from Illinois. John McCain will walk to the White House, and if I were the DNC I would also be worried about how many down-ticker Republicans he will take with him. An Obama nomination will paint America red.

IF SHE ONLY KNEW:
Are the Clintons fron Sicily by any chance? Are they related to Don Coleon?

I heard President Bill Clinton speak in Oregon today. There was nothing untoward, rude, crude, divisive or bizarre about his speech.

Heck, I don’t know.. I just know one thing.. I would be running scared If I had anything tied to the Clintons.. I better be careful, they may come after me for posting these notes.

Hilliary needs to pull out of this campaign while she still has some support left, b/c it is dwindling every day as she sputters on, but will run out of steam, and have little if any credibility left with the party powers-that-be. She needs to throw her full land undivided support behind the leader in this campaign, b/c it is a farce for her or anyone else to believe that it is even close. Elections in the USA are about delegates, and she will not be able to “win” enough delegates to overtake the nominee. Of course, she realizes that she can not “win” the nomination, and that the only hope she has is to “dupe” people and to try her best to “steal” the nomination, which would ruin her chance in the G.E. Most people historically have her rightly pegged as a “divider” a “polarizer,” which she is, and she has proven time and again that this, along with her propensity to spind falsehoods is her defining characteristic. If she were to pull out now, and preserve some integrity, supporting Senator Obama, then after he has had a successful 8 year term, rising above partisan politics, and restoring America to her historic vision among the peace-loving, hard-working, and law-abiding nations of the world, then Hilliary could say that she has worked along side of him for 8 years and would be seen as a part of his success, which would restore her credibility among voters, her having earned it, and she would then have her “turn” at the country’s helm. She is NOT a bad person, but she needs to learn teamwork first, and then she will be “ready” on day whatever.

Obama’s record shows he lstened to sermons of hate for twenty years, he did nothing, he said nothing. Actually he thought it was fine for his children to learn from those sermons of hate. Instead of talking of Bill Clinton lets talk about how Michelle Obama is playing the race card and the Anti Americans card.

It appears that the folks associated with the Clintons, are jumping ship..
We better pray for them!
Hillary is destroying the DEM in everyway.. Blacks agains Whites, its like being back in the 50′s /60′s . All I can say is, Rush Limbaugh started this mess, because he told the Republicans to vote for Hillary.. They voted in TX and OH.. over 15% of the votes she received were Rebublican and they had an association with Rush..
So, that is why Obama can’t put her away, because RUSH is begging on his radio show for people to vote for HILLARY and he has atleast 500,000 listeners daily

The media suppressed the information for months and let voters be deceived. They attacked Hillary and puffed up Obama trying to run this election. Voters deserved to be informed of Obama’s associations with radical, Anti American, racist, white hating, criminals and terrorists. It goes to the man’s judgment of who he chooses to be in the company with. He has told too many lies about too many issues. We are the 50 United States of America — not 48! The citizens of Florida and Michigan should be counted.

Since America was founded oit has only white presidents, were is the equal opportunity in the meltingpot country. Think about that and think that Clinton said in PA that Obama and his campaign are playing race card on him. Clinton was hopping to see black people on their knees for him because he believes he has done so much for them, not remembering that if he was not thrown out of the White People it is because of many black people who said no to republicans, the right wing conspiracy. But Bill sees his own interest alone and for him a good black individual is te one on the back seat and quiet. No Bill don try to keep black people on plantations not anymore, not this time. Hill the Bosnian General is unelectable. God bless America and God bless Obama.OBAMA08.

I will not vote for the Clintons, I don’t care how much money they offer..
Well, since I am living from pay check to pay check.. I may take some but behind close doors..
Well, let them thow some cash at me and I will see.. But at this point, since I am poor and white, and live in a rural area, with a dog and a tin roof..
I am still not voting for them

They can’t gain moron LOL The math is there and the supers will decide…and watch and see which way they go. Not many like the Clintons and even fewer want them back in power.

No matter what Bill Clinton said about the race effect on primaries, he (and later Gore and Kerry) used to get most of the black votes in the previous general elections. There is reason that he is pretty unhappy as 90% of the black voters went for Obama in PA. The media are in general hostile to Bill Clinton, in spite of the fact that he is the only two-term Dem. president since the end of WWII and he was wise enough to stay away from any major war and have the budget balanced.

proudamerican2008: Michigan and Florida broke the rules. Rule breakers are not rewarded for their behavior, and Michigan and Florida shouldn’t be either.

Well I wont say anything bad about Bill Clinton i think hes doing enough damage to himself. But lets be real none of the candidates have made this about race its the media and pundits and polls and such separating the country into black, smart whites, dumb whites, rich blacks, old white women, young white frogs, yellow martians and the likes. we are allowing our media to disenfranchise us. stop playing into the games of demographics and race and vote on policy and issues. if you dont like obama because of his health care plan then cool but dont get mad at him because hes got a base of people who hillary doesnt and vice versa

Some wonder. Many Democrats are certain (Bill Clinton has worn out his welcome).

Bill Clinton is not really a racist. But racism is the only card left to play against Obama even though Obama is also white.
I wonder what he would do if John Edwards had been in Obama’s four pairs of shoes.

If she only blew—I ran into a lot of squirrels when I was on Cadre at Knox.
If they could talk, I believe you would be related.

If anyone deserves some slack for their service to this country and the world, that person is Bill Clinton. Now, nearly eight years after President Clinton (Bill) left office; I miss him more than ever! I can’t think of anyone who can hold a candle to him. He left office leaving behind a 450 billion dollar surplus! What more proof do you need? We were prosperous, and well respected around the world. He accomplished all of that in spite of the Washington media’s daily attacks, and relentless hit jobs. Eight years after he left office we find ourselves surrounded by disasters and on a slippery slope of decline. A crisis– one sort of another– has become a daily occurrence, like living in a third world country. Now, the media is promoting and cheering for Sen. Obama. Just like they promoted Gov. Bush and Iraq war, remember? By electing Sen. Hillary Clinton as our next president is the only way to put an end to the decline of our country and promote prosperity and success here at home and stability throughout the world!

I still don’t think that even Don Coleon would approve of the senseless killing between the families.

people are fed up with do or say anything to with.and she wonder why she is perceived less honest? get out of here hillary!!!!!!!!!!!!!

people are fed up with do or say anything to with.and she wonder why she is perceived less honest? get out of here hillary!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Allamr18—You think it’s bad having to listen to Bill? We are stuck with Michelle.

No sermons of hate, No Rezko frauds, No Obama looking down on people, no Michelle trashing the country and Americans. no terrorist like Ayers, no Farrakahn No Obama. Obama is unelectable.

Cheb Obama calls himself a black man, he likes to play the race card and that is why 98% of blacks vote for him, for race.

Actually, it was nice to see Hillary, Bill, Chelsean and Hillary’s mom (the grandma not thrown under the bus) at the victory speech in PA. I wish we could see more of Bill and that the negative, Obama loving, Bill bashing media could try and note that many Americans have a great fondness for President Bill Clinton. It’s really uncool to bash a former president as much as the media does. If any former president deserves this much bashing, it’s Jimmy Carter for his Hamas forays and anti-semitic displays.
TELL THE DNC TO ALLOW ALL 50 STATES TO VOTE!
SAY NO TO A DNC OBAMA CORONATION!

Cheb:
What do you mean ‘taint?’ Conotes undesirable.

Felixdiaz1,
I know he calls himself a black man, but does he have a choice? It is the ‘black’ community that accepted him. Back in years gone by, having a ‘none-white’ skin meant that you would be ostracised by many, regardless of whether you had ‘white’ blood or not. So he (Obama) cannot now denounce or dissociate himself from the ‘black’ community at this point in time.

I cannot undersand how come the blacks are calling always the race card when Obama is the one using the race card on his favor. Unfortunately, the majority of blacks have been voting en masse for Obama, which makes you think if the only thing they consider when making their choice is race. If you make any type of comment based on that reality (and for example, the media is telling us that Obama is going to win NC since 40% of the voters are black), then you are labeled by the black people as a racist. It would be very detrimental for the black voters credibility and reliability as a voting group not to vote for the Democratic Party if Obama is not the candidate of the Democratic Party. That would mean that they are practicing reverse racism.

Blackman,
yes taint. As i said to Felixdiaz1, it seems to be easier for the ‘black’ community to accept a mixed-race individual than for the white community to do so, just because of skin colour. I bet you if Obama had somehow been born with much much fairer skin (almost white) then he would have been accepted in the white community of back in the day as one of their own….

Cheb I have darker skin than Obama, but I do not promote rcism or use it as a shield like Obama does and his supporters do.

Blackman :The tactics that Obama used to get the seat as Illinois senator indeed are “Corleone” style. His campaign tactics and the amount of money he spends in propaganda are also more on that line.

The time is long past due when Bill Clinton, aka “Slick Willy”, should have shut his loose-lipped mouth. He’s done nothing in this campaign other than hurt his wife. His well-timed snipes (i.e. just before elections) are obviously timed so as to provide no possible rebuttal time from the Obama campaign.
There has been a long-standing precedent that ex-presidents stay out of presidential and other campaigns. I suspect part of that is because they don’t want to diminish or change their legacy. It appears at times that Bill Clinton thinks he is running. I don’t see how it can possibly be to any candidate’s advantage, especially his own wife’s, to always be upstaged by an ex-president.
In addition, he isn’t really speaking to actual campaign issues. Most of the time, he’s making some calculated remark designed to incite one segment of the voters against another. And, in general, he makes these comments so close to the voting window that it makes it impossible to dispute, refute, or otherwise reply appropriately. When the remarks are off-based or construed incorrectly and reported in the media, he quickly refutes or disavows any knowledge of them. But the damage is usually already done. And the Clinton supporters just eat his spew hook, line and sinker.
I seriously don’t understand how anybody could vote for HRC knowing that her big-mouth husband is always going to run his mouth off and upstage her. Honestly, it will be the first time in U. S. history when there will be a legitimate issue as to who’s calling the shots in the White House and that the U. S. President would be constantly getting upstaged. I don’t know why anybody in their right mind would vote for that scenario. He’s had his allotted eight years in the White House. That’s all that our Constitution allows for. He really needs to shut his trap!

Cheb: Do not forget that Obama choose to embrace his black heritage and reject his white heritage; that is why he is considered a black by the black community. A real “unifier” would have embraced both of his heritages, and work with the present instead of looking at the past (we all know how the blacks were treated). As long as the black Obama supporters do not understand that the majority of the people (of other races and color) who do not believe he is the best candidate do not reach that conclusion based on his race, but in other real facts, they will continue labeling us as racists.

This is the ugliest campaign I have ever witnessed. It makes me ashamed to be a member of the DNC.
They’re both destroying each other’s credibility. Whichever one is left standing when this is all over won’t have a rat’s ass of a chance against McCain. They’d better kiss and make up and start exhibiting some unity or we’ll have 4 more years of the RNC.

Amy: Is Hillary dividing the party along racial lines, or are Obama and Obama black supporters the ones who are dividing the party along racial lines by voting en masse for Obama?

Definitely Common Sense:
Please clarify this for me. Has Obama in one way or other denounced his white heritage? He was brought up by his mother and therefore I naively presume he lived amongst the ‘white’ people. He has however been attending a pre-dominantly ‘black’ church for the past 20 years. Seeing as he is only in his mid 40s, shall we say he ‘embraced’ his black heritage and ‘denounced’ his white heritage a long time go. Is he did this for political reasons as you state, then I must say he’s been planning for this day for quite a long time!!

Blackman: As I stated in a prior posting, Obama has two heritages (black and white or white and black), but he openly rejected his white heritage and adopted his black heritage as his sole heritage. We all agree on how much the blacks have suffered, but as a candidate looking to the FUTURE AND PREACHING CHANGE, WOULDN’T IT BE a best approach as a UNIFIER embracing both of his heritages and adopt an approach of how we can make things better for both and work for the betterment of both in the future?

I used to adore Bill Clinton in the 90′s… I can’t stand the man now. He’s a mean-spirited, crotchety, anything-goes campaigner… he gives Dems a bad name. I don’t believe a thing that he or Hillary say anymore. They have zero credibility with me.

to Felixdiaz1
Obomber already has this nomination won. This debate BS is just another ploy by the Clintons to make Obomber look bad. This is a real joke. Clinton has no way of winning this. Wise up.

Oh come on dj!!
Do you know how hard it is to live in a community as an ‘outcast’? The law of nature dictates that we as humans gravitate to where we feel comfortable and accepted. Why would Obama have to ‘denounce’ his white heritage if he felt so comfortable? Your going up in arms and protesting now is a failure to look at the reasons why he embraced his black heritage.

Obama may as well win the nomination It is an uphill battle for Hillary but I am so proud of her. Her strength, her capacity, her breadth of knowledge and her personality is truly amazing. This is why Obama is a scaredy cat with going toe to toe for a new debate. With Obama’s nomination, we know that the democrats have lost the presidency! America will not go for another naive Bush like president — especially someone who has promised to raise payroll and capital gains taxes up past 35%

Cheb: PAST, past; we are still not perfect and much still needs to be done but we have come a long way from those times. AGAIN, a real UNIFIER, THAT PREACHES OF HOPE LOOKS TO THE FUTURE, BY UNDERSTANDING THE PAST BUT MOVING FORWARD TO EMPOWER HIS RACE. Sticking in the past is not going to help the blacks; they need to start hoping and working towards the future and the best way to do it is by uniting all of the races to work for the betterment of all.

Definitely Common Sense
Obama echos me in his book. See, he’s not alone.

Definitely Common Sense
You are bent on turning this campaign into a racial thing between whites and blacks. That is the only way whites ever wins anything in this country against blacks. You can’t give anybody any other reason to vote for your candidate except she is beter that a black man because she is white..

Voter:
Sorry if this comes as offensive, but you are living in lala land if you think Hillary has no skeletons and everyone is just having a go at her. What happened to the peter paul saga? The bosnia incident is nothing compared to this. He carried out several campaigns for her election as senator and yet the clintons denied having had anyting to to with him! This saga has been swept under the carpet like nothing ever happened and yet it is touted as the largest election fraud in history!! Don’t try and paint her as a saint, because she’s so far from it!!

Definitely common sense:
The argument you make about Obama having the upper hand in NC to start with should be applied to PA by those who say Clinton had a major victory. Arent the majority in PA ‘white’, so she was bound to win. Why are the white-worker votes so much more important than the other votes? And anyway, isn’t Obama having a smaller lead over clinton on the national front?

Please you people can you tell me what the problem is with Obama. Why is he always complaigning about race? He is the one that started the race game an it is coming down on him now as the real blue collar workers are really voting for Clinton on Economy and Reliability . Clinton has done this in the past and Hillary can do more now. I dont know why we Blacks keeps shouting as if we are cheated when Obama really doesnt know what he is doing .HE CANT WIN AND WILL NOT WIN BY GOD’S GRACE AMEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Nor Obama nor Clinton can reach the 2025 delegates necessary to secure the nomination. That is it. There is no rule that the candidate with more delegates short of 2025 wins the nomination, si it does not matter if Obama ends with more delegates as long as is less than 2025. The superdelegates decide and they must decide on who can win the General Election not on delegates or amount of states. Obama is unelectable because he alienated the majority of white votes. Senator Clinton has won the decisive states with more electoral votes and would be a nominee for every democrat and a President for every American.

DJ: I know, I agree. But it is interesting how many people use a double standard to judge people depending on the circumstances. Isn’t Ted Kennedy one of the biggest supporters of Obama? Were are the morals of those who talk about Bill, but forget about Ted? See the point?

Felixdiaz1
If the Clintons STEAL this nomination by using the super delegates then get prepared for a race uprising like this country has never seen. Clinton is setting back race relations in this country 50 years and she doesn’t care.
Come to the reality that McCain is going to win. BOTH of the Dem candidates are severly damaged from their statements and their pasts.

Definitely Common Sense
A lot of younger people don’t about Chapaquidic.
BOTH of these guys do not deserve their positions.

Obama introduced himself as a centrist. Ohio believed him. Clinton spins his race in South Carolina. Hillary supporters spins that Obama is playing the race card. Is his how you want to wina n election, by distorting truths and outright lying?

Obama’s supporters they try to use race as a guilt blacmail or as a threat for violence. I do not think the majority of African Americans can not see that if Obama is unelectable, then we have to stop the Republicans and Senator Clinton can do it. The Clintons both have done a lot of good for this country and for Black Americans. It is laughable that some people want their candidate to win or threaten with violence. If that is not racist then what?

Blackman Jesse Jackson was a Democrat contender in the primaries before.What are you talking about never?

He was writing about his life up to that point. Just read the book again please.

From someone looking in from Canada. What I see is a woman who is willing to destroy her opponent for the nomination and her party just because they dared to not hand her the nomination on a silver plater and because she is losing. If by some chance she does get the nomination she will not win the presidency in November because she has created such a riff among democrats both black and white. Every one including the media keeps harping on the black vs white voters. Hillary Clinton does not have all of the white vote. Barack Obama has both black, brown and white supporters and all are being permanently turned off of Hillary. I doubt very much that they will even forget these shinanigans in time for her to win in 2012 or later. I believe that she has done irreparable harm to herself and possibly to her party. She has definetly lost stature as an honest elected member.

I totally agree with what others have said here.
Obama pundits have tried to paint a picture of WATTS RIOTS if Obama doesnt win the nomination. Its a direct threat of EXTORTION or blackmail.
They make it seem like Obama has 60 or 70% of the delegates and vote and its being STOLEN from him.
You first have to WIN the nomination before its STOLEN from you.
Neither can win. The superdelegates have to decide.
Secondly, Obama has a 2 1/2 % lead in delegates, and a 1% lead in the vote . And thats NOT counting Michigan and Florida.
Wow!!! what a big difference !!!!
Its a virtual tie.
Most polls have a MARGIN OF ERROR larger than this.

Strange how Bill Clinton was loved, adored and admired by the majority of the Black community for many years until he was up against one of their own.
Now he is evil personified they no longer have a need for him. Talk about turn on and eat your own.
All these blinkered people up on their high horses condemn all including friends. I am a very fair open minded person who has suddenly been called racist for the first time in 40 years simply because I do not choose the Black candidate nothing more.
The members of the Black congress have pressured their own members to choose Barack because of colour.
Members of the Black community have called non supporters of Obama uncle tom and worse. Everything I say I now have to second guess just incase in the current climate it can be misconstued as racist.
I am shattered that this is happeneing and I freely acknowledge there are racists out there against Obama but this race problem in this primary is going both ways.
I am not a racist and I simply ask that people on both sides consider this as they casually throw accusations around.
I am sorry but I see only one reeason for this comment by Clyburn and it is purely political not noble. His comments are in response to what form the past week? He is fuelling a fire.

Is Hillary Clinton the Presidential
Candidate? Hard to Tell!

Has anyone noticed that prior to a major primary the race card is played by the dnc and obama campaign.
Hillary has every right to stay in the race. Its not over until its over.
Obama has not been vetted. More will come out of the rezko trial . Can’t wait.

I really resent the Obama bloggers who go through ancient history to scout up garbage about their competion!
Bill Clinton will go down in history as aone hell-of-a-fantastic president….
AND as a friend and supporter of minorities.
In fact, until this election…..he jokingly called our first Black President.
Of course, this title WAS just a joke, because Warren Harding was actually the first black president….. but that’s nbesides the point!
Bill Clinton was/is not a perfect person. He had sex with an unmarried young woman.
He was not the first man to do so.
Aside from John Kennedy , there was also Franklin Delano Roosevelt, among others.
But never before have the sins of the husband been (so repetitively) visited on the wife or child!
And LOOK at the strength of these wives!
Eleanor Roosevelt was thereafter until the time of her deathrevered for her brilliance and accomplishments within the United Nations.
Jackie Kennedy made thhe headlines for
her fashion and publishing prowess.
Why should Hillary be held back by the pecidilloes (sp) of Bill?
Get over it!
Get on with it!
Vote for Hillary because she’s the one who can get us through the next four difficult years with the least amount of turbulance…..
You might not like her….. but it’s like medicine or vitamins; you take it because it’s good for you.
In this case, Hillary is good for your country!

*****************************************
First of all, Bill Clinton’s “sin” is not “having sexual relations with that woman”
His sins are…
1. Lying DIRECTLY to the American people about it!
2. Not being man enough or PRESIDENTIAL enough to to accept the consequences of his actions!
3. Wasting the American people’s time and resources for years on his lies and transgressions!
In spite of all that, he still left office with the respect and admiration of the very people that overwhelmingly helped him get elected not once but twice.
His and his wife’s current actions and attitudes as of late in regards to those very same people are what ended the Clintons + African Americans love affair! They’ve repeatedly demonstrated clearly who they really are and where they really stand in regards to the African American community and it has a whole lot less to do with Senator Obama then they’d have you think!

My understanding from Clyburn early on in this contest was that he was supposed to stay nuetral in order to get the South Carolina primary moved up. He has never seemed nuetral to me.
I don’t believe Bill Clinton is a racist. I think that Obama’s campaign strategy included afull deck of race cards (with both Clintons and Ferraro and God knows who else)This could be confirmed by any honest journalist if they would review all the “accidently” released memos and correspondence that they have referred to publically throughout this campaign.
Bill Clinton is not as politically sharp as he used to be. However he has done more for Blacks than most public figures. His civil rights record throughout his career is stunning. His AIDS foundation outreach work is probably bigger than the US government’s. His dedication to rebuilding New Orleans and the Black Community and to improved educational resopurces in that area is unparalleled.
I think the Black community has a very short memory and no graditude whatsoever for Bill’s dedication. Bill Clinton has done far more for the Black community than they have ever done for him.

Markymark….Hillary is constantly talking about the issues. And always does. The media gives her little or no play…they have shown us Obama’s stump speech many times.
You can find her speeches through local media outlets in Indiana, Oregon, PA etc,,,she talks a lot more about the issues than Obama. Don’t take my word for it do a little research.

Hillary Clinton is using Bill way too much in her campaign. It makes her look so nepotistic and…..needy. She looks as if she can never stand on her own two feet. She leans too much.

To Jackie,
Good points, good posts, great job! I couldn’t have said it better myself. Though I don’t know if Obama had this stuff “planned” per se, as far as I can tell it was the original twisting of Bill’s statement about Obama’s position on the war that started this whole “Bill is a racist” BS.
The way people talk, like they know the Clintons personally, is astounding, attributing all sorts of motives, etc., while all the good the Clintons have done for minorities and the disadvantaged drops out of view.
The Obamas profound — I repeat, profound — absence of any sort of recognition of the progress that’s been made in civil rights, affirmative action and non-discrimination poliies is appalling. So far from any sense of gratitude or appreciation for how much better things are now … and therefore no discussion on building on the good … only pointing out the failings and promising to fix it all for us … as if we have done nothing … as if we are invisible.
One other shared complaint: Hillary spends way more time on the issues than she does on Obama and yet, from the lopsided media coverage, you have a hard time seeing that. The media just makes me pray harder for fairness.
Of course, it isn’t as exciting as watching Obama bowl or play basketball. You know, the guy who wants us all to stop focusing on distractions?

S.M White You are right, is like Obama belongs to another fictional party, because he and his supporters not only do not recognize the accomplishments of Democrats, but they twist them and trash them.

I think Bill is on the verge of a nervous breakdown. He is sounding more and more desperate and psychotic every day. His people need to rein him for his own sake.

Black and White…All the comments this week from Bill and Clyburn were just tactics. This race is clearly a power play struggle in the party. I think Nancy Pelosi may have her eye on the VP slot with Obama. The democratic presidential losers from the past elections want more power, and the freshman elected in last couple elections see a chance to skip over established congressman and senaters and gain more power in the party. Just like there has been a quasi civil war in Irag, there is a civil war in the party, left vs. middle, new vs. old. A case could be made for either Obama or Clinton, but at the end of day whom ever wins will have the power in the party, choose carefuly!!

I – perhaps like many, many others – am FED-UP with the campaign. The villification has gone too far. I always knew in the back of my mind that this campaign would come down to a race fight and I pretty much now feel sorry for Obama, because President and Mrs. Clinton and their advisors know very well what hurts and what works. If Senator Obama responds, they will say “Yuh see! he is playing the race card.” If he doesn’t debate, they will say “Yuh see, he is afraid to face her” and so it goes, and so it goes. They will maximize their tactics at every opportunity. BUT AT WHAT COST TO WHOM?

simple truth,
thanks for being another voice telling the truth.
my american people
forget all of that crap you carry on about HRC and not trusting her.
she will deliver
think about what she is saying will be done.
she has the best plans
obama only copies,
if you want healthcare,economy back on track,etc hi;;ary will deliver.
obama does not have the will
look at all of the attacks from the media on sen. clinton and she just keeps right on marching with the truth
not distracted, not floundering
obama had a few hard questions toward him
and he is caving=will not debate
will not answer questions
just wants to make the big speeches
he was already stumbling and fumbling
when asked questions-now he really stumbles.
I can remember when bush started saying he did not want to debate-there was a reason for that.-and we have over slowly found out why.and it has hurt us
in the long run.
better we hear obama debate, and take the hard questions now and let him suffer a little
that to give him a pass and we suffer in the long run for it.
it is his all that he keeps telling people he is-let him debate sen. clinton
and let some of the undecided voters see them together.

I used to have respect for Bill Clinton (in spite of the Monica scandal) and voted for him both times. However, this dirty campaign that has been run by Bill and Hillary and the numerous insensitive off the cuff remarks by Bill Clinton has caused me to lose any respect that I may have had. Bill Clinton has destroyed any decent legacy that he may have had.

Truth be told, Bill and Hill have made it difficult for either candidate to win in the fall. If HRC manages to steal the nomination, many blacks and many of the the young new voters energized by Obama’s campaign will either vote for McCain or not vote at all. And whether HRC supporters want to believe it or not, she is more disliked now than when she was when she started her campaign due to her and Bill’s own behavior. She will go to ANY extreme to win what she perceives to be her right. And by the way, she won PA by 10 points. Huge win since she was ahead by 20 points the month before???????????

Mr. clyburn seems to be saying that only black people will vote for BO.

BO can’t win the GE. BO is tearing the party apart. The supers know this! BO needs to spend more time with his family.

“Obama supporters are more highly educated and articulate.”
Not necessarily. I have two post-graduate degrees and I am supporting Hillary. I know many folks with college and post-graduate degrees who are also supporting her.

Of course it is about race ! And what a presidential race it is !

Bill Clinton has revealed himself to be what he was all along: a racist hillbilly.
Many of his and her remarks have a racist undertone: Jesse Jackson remark intended to trivialize Obama win in SC, Hillary’s “as far as I know.” when asked if Obama is a Muslim. These are just two of the many remarks the Clintons have made that have a demeaning overtone. Hillary is down in number of states won, number of delegates won, number caucuses won, number of he popular vote.
The only area in which Hillary is leading is in the number of lies told.

ENOUGH! STOP USING THE TERM “RACE CARD” MY GOD, YOU GUYS HAVE TOTALLY WORN IT OUT FOR THE NEXT 20 YEARS! GET OVER IT! YOU WANT TO KNOW WHO’S PULLING THE “RACE CARD”? WE ARE, IF OBAMA OR CLINTON IS NOT WHERE WE WANT THEM TO BE WE ARE THE ONES WHO SAY, “IT WAS THE….RACE CARD” FOR CRYING OUT LOUD, MAY THE BEST MAN WIN.

The Clintons have always tried to divide an conquer, then they try to tell people the media is the one to blame.
Newsweek recently had an article mentioning all of the countries Hillary has upset by her comments. If Hillary had any understanding of foreign governments, she would not have upset allies like Great Britain, Irish Protestants, New Zealand, and Bosnia.
Her comments about Putin and Russia have guaranteed another cold war is she is elected president. Only this time, America is dependant on Russian oil.

Well, it’s coming up a contest in a state with a high African American population so time for the black politicians to make up some phoney race thing about Hillary Clinton. Trying to make Obama unelectable so she can run in 2012? Oh, yeah, go through this campaign hell just to keep Obama from winning so she can run in four years and then go through this hell again? If the African American community is dumb enough to swallow that whole, then I have no sympathy for them at all whatsoever! Fortunately, there have already been AA’s saying that Clyburn is not authorized to speak for them. Clyburn, you can fool some of the people some of the time….but you can’t fool the whole AA community all of the time. Bill Clinton has been working to restore housing destroyed by Katrina, getting cheap aids medications to underpreviliged countries and various other good works. I think he should be welcome anywhere in this country.

Bill Clinton is showing some chinks in
his black armor. His faithful steed,
Hillary, tho, looks none the worse for
wear.
Ride on, ride on to victory.

democrats are showing what they truly stand for-a devisive america- the utopian speeches about uniting america and helping the poor are mere political manuver to score political points but yet their records shows their liberal and uncompromising stance.

Please no Clintons for the sake of my family. We cana’t have liars and cheaters in the White House – what message does that send to our kids – yes, its fine to lie and cheat on your spouse etc.
I’m voting for anybody other than Clinton. Please lose HRC for the good of the US and the world.

Now Dean is trying to tell Us that Hillary and Obama are now in a dead heat! Can you beleive that stuff ???? She got by a bunch of Pennheads, and now she is in a dead heat!
I saw that comming. I knew they would try to force Hilly down our throats and that is why I have changed my affilation to independent and I urge all the Obama followers to do the same. If Obama is not on the ballot, we can still write him in and at the same time, get even with all these “super delagates” that sold us out!!!
Leave it to those idiots in the Penn State to keep this going……what idiots!!! When the democrats loose this one, you know what state to thank!

I am proud of everyone here that has said how corrupt the Clinton regime is. I was very young when Clinton was in office, but I know far too well the corruption that came with him. I am also aware of the racism that is carrying Senator Obama. I think it is sickening to see black people vote for someone just because he’s black. They vote for him because they’re tired of white racists, but the way I see it, there are more white people voting for Obama than black people for Clinton or McCain proportionally. To me this says that the BLACKS are actually the racists. I am sick and tired of racists, I am ready to see America be what it’s supposed to be, which is a diverse country unified under one belief and love for the country which our Founding Fathers created!

President Bill Clinton has not made one racist remark when touring The United States. He has a deep affection for African Americans. Why are they forgetting him. He is very fair, just as Obama is. President Clinton has done nothing wrong; he has only tried to campaign fairly for his wife (he dearly loves his wife and is very proud of her)…Obama’s name doesn’t even seem to be brought up during Clinton’s events/rallys and I’ve attended many of Clinton’s events.
Senator Clinton is very strong and she WILL get the job done for us. We need her. It is not a Clinton or Bush legacy…it’s about Senator Clinton finally having a chance to help the American people. She has a passion to help us…that is all she wants. She doesn’t want power; she wants to help the American people as she has always done. Please give her the job (look at her resume). You will not be disappointed. She will not quit; she will not give up; she will fight for all of us until things in this country are right again. She is not a quitter and that is what we need in a leader.
One last point, why will Senator Obama not debate Hillary in Indiana? Is he afraid that she is the better candidate? He has time to play basketball here, why can’t he take some time to do some old fashioned debating?
If he were to be nominated, the Republicans will eat him alive….Senator Clinton’s baggage has been out there for many years and it is over with. It’s in the past….what can the Republicans tell us that we do not already know about the Clintons?
Chris in Indiana

To jbate:
She was in the cabinet meetings and General’s meeting throughout President Clinton’s presidency. You might want to do your homework on that one. She has immense experience. She has worked for American families (like us) for over 35 years; she has worked with foreign countries. She is backed by Generals and the military! She is very strong and she WILL get the job done for you and for me. She WILL fight for us! She is an amazing woman. I hope that you get a chance to realize this.
Chris in Indiana (where we are the so called “tie-breaker”)…”Clinton country”
Indiana is ours! I hope that you’re not from Michigan or Florida, what an injustice there (I would be so upset if I resided there)! I thought this was America!

jbate where was Obama on Feb 4 1999? He did not go to work at the Senate in Illinois.

President Clinton has done absolutely nothing to deserve this type of treatment.
Americans that were babies at the time he was in office don’t understand what a great President Clinton was.
We should feel blessed to have him anywhere near the White House.
He is the last person anyone should call a racist. This man has supported and has done more for African Americans than any other president. For African Americans to turn on him is cruel.
President Clinton balanced our budget, mended ties internationally and stood up for all of America. He is not liked but LOVED not just in America, but throughout the world.
Please stop falling for the comments said “fairy tale” and whatever silly thing the media has tried to spin into being a racist remark.
This is discusting to think that anyone black or white would even consider this man a racist.
Wake up America.
Be grateful he is helping to win the White House for the Democratic Party.
He is a PLUS for all Americans.

Hillary will do or say anything to win this election. Truth has no place in her campaign unless it serves her agenda. Remember, the Clintons are a package deal. There won’t be an intern in the White House who will be safe. The Clintons are old news. There’s nothing exciting or innovative going on in that campaign.
McCain better come up with a good running mate. He’s older than dirt and will not make it through the first four years intact.
The only candidate without political baggage is Barack. He may be young and he may be inexperienced, but he has potential. He’s smart. He’ll take us to a level of leadership that we haven’t seen in years. Give me something new and exciting.

Good grief, what a heading! Both Clintons are wearing out their welcome. Bush (VP), Bush, Clinton, Clinton, Bush, Bush, and now another Clinton? When did we get an imperial presidency with lines of succession? Who’s next? Laura, then Chelsea, then Jenna?
L.

I really admire some of you folk’s passion for your respective candidates. However, I think it would be wise to remember that this campaign is not about Barrack Obama or Hillary Clinton or John McCain…it is supposed to be about us and moving from a stagnant, backwards America. I swear some of you people act just like children with the personal assaults and mischaracterizations and downright lies. Take a deep breath already!
For the record, I haven’t heard any of the candidates outright make race an issue in this contest! I have noticed that their respective supporters have done a pretty good job of muddling this fact.
The bottom line is that the “status quo” Americans are not going to be the King makers on this one. People who have traditionally voted the Republican and Democratic line will in all likelihood continue to do so. The key to this campaigns success will lie in the new voters and switch over votes.
So for Christ’s sake, will some of you people please back off of the personal insults and attacks. I am an Obama supporter and I am African-American as well. I will defend HRC’s right to try to win to the end, and any right minded Democrat should feel the same way. However, if she does win the nomination, what kind of a fool would I be by supporting the other guy, who clearly does not share any of my views or interests?
I think it is time for all Democrats to get out of the gutter with this personal crap and take the high ground on this campaign and on these issues. Yes the candidates are going to go after each other…this is politics! It does not matter if the race card, sex card, or whatever card is played, these candidates are trying to win and we should not blame them.

Look who’s talking. He is the one playing the race card. He used the recial card again as an EXCUSE for his speech. There is nothing wrong witht eh Black church. What is wrong is you and Obama who keeps lying to the entire Americans.
Is this another Obama tactics. Latest Obama’s tactic is to have give a long speech (of I mean church sermon) last Sunday to see how good their is. But that is not the issue. The issue is that both of them LIED adn trying to mislead again the American people saying good things. You can not fool the Americans. He said that Black preacher shouts when they preach. There is nothing wrong with shouting when preaching. What is wrong is that he shout and mocked the entire nation specifially after the 9/11 attack. He also saif that Obama is just a politician. He is just ot win the white house. He is also politician by giving his speech (sermon I mean) to cover up the bad comments he made.
You and Obama lied and does not take responsobility of what you said. Instead you both make reason to justify you irresponsible and very degrading comments. You can not fool America at this time.
Beware North Carolinians and Indianians….Obama lied and just a Politician.
Mr. Wright, CNN interview, said Obama condemned his comments about american because Obama is a Politician. Yeah right, Obama wants to get away with it condemning Wirght’s comments to get oput of trouble and still fool the Americans and the younger voters. Good job lying Obama. You don’t tale responsibility for your action. You are a disgrace for all North Carolinians and Indianians. What’s new? Obama lied just like Wright, Rezco and Ayers and he will continue to lie and overspent the voter’s money just to win but still the loser.
Richardson suddenly came out at CNN after Hillary won Pennsylvannia. Why are you afraid? Yes you are because f Hilalry wins your personal ambition and interest will disappear. Richardson cannot be trusted and a traitor. Don’t vote for him when runs for a Senator. He belongs to Wright, Rezco and Ayer who join any group or fraternity where he will benefit and not the Americans.
Obama’s motto and theme should be Pay per Vote. Obama overspent in Pennsylvannia and still came out the loser.
Look at the facts as to how strong Hillary is:
Obama lost in Pennsylvannia in spite of endorsement by a Senator and overspending in ads, 5 to 1.
Obama lost in Texas and Ohio even overspending in ads and manipulating info in Ohio.
Obama lost in California even though Oprah, Maria Shriver, and Katherine Kennedy endorsed him.
Obama lost Massachusetts even though Kennedy and John Kerry endorsed him.
Hillary won the big states and has more electoral college votes to date than Obama that is crucial in November.
Obama lost the big states even though the media is most of the time unfair with Hillary and always positive to Obama.
Wake up superdelegates! You will make the right choice if you pick Hillary.
Obama mocked the Pennsylvannians and the entire nation, which is so irresponsible and very degrading to all Americans. He is just like Wright who mocked the Americans and like Rezco and Ayers who we can’t trust.
Before you can have CHANGE, we first need SOLUTIONS and that is HILLARY.
Wake up superdelegates!

Obama is the DIVIDER who kissed up to the Republican vote during the DEMOCRATIC PRIMARY for starters. When we voiced that we didn’t like that, he had plenty of insults to fling at DEMOCRATS who supported Hillary. He isn’t loyal to DEMOCRATS. He, like his kindred spirit; Wright, solely cares about his self promotion even if he has to demonize and divide us to do it. As long as there is a perceived “enemy” (people who support Hillary) against him, he apparently thinks that will get him into the Presidency.

No matter how media tries to twist, he still one of the best.

I think Cheb was pointing out the focus Barack has given to ONLY his black heritage in the media coverage. For instance, his Kenya relatives were featured in the news, yet we are not seeing his white grandmother who raised him in the newscasts and media, although she lives in the US. He characterized her as ‘ordinary white folk’,and she contributed the max amount to his campaign. His book talks about his personal bio. It’s not the family that’s running for office, so I don’t see an issue with this.

Helen- Your aassertion that polls show that people perceive Hillary as more trustworthy than Obama is not true. Gallop poll showed that “Hillary Clinton is rated as “honest and trustworthy” by 44% of Americans, far fewer than say this about John McCain (67%) and Barack Obama (63%)”. I don’t know which poll you got your information from but the ones I saw said just the opposite. Who was your souces on that or was it your perception? I would like to know so I can check it out.

Being a White older man,I got a question?
If you’d take a 2 year old Black Boy and a 2 year old White Boy in a room of toys together, would they get along? I believe they’d play together….And if they grew up they’d proably be friends! Only way they would fight is if Hatred was taught to either before hand!Children of all nationalities don’t have a natural hate attitude unless they were taught that!And unfortunately I think that is what a majority of the problems in this world is about!

I ask, from the bottom of my heart, that every single person who reads this post — no matter which candidate you support — to please read the following article:
Please read it carefully because the “New Politics” have arrived and I don’t know that anyone saw it coming. This article isn’t for or against any candidate.
It outlines how this election has changed the face of American politics forever through databases on the Internet, containing personal information voluntarily given at the time of donation, which can now be sold to the highest bidder in furtherance of their political goals.
Power-brokering in Washington has reached a terrifying new height, with ramifications that will last for years to come. Our elections will no longer be “free” … the voters will be systematically manipulated to serve the ends of whomever purchases their name from the list. This power exceeds any lobby, any coalition, any PAC … it surpasses them all in its power.
We need to stand up and speak out against this before it’s too late.

There is a lot of talk about how Blacks should owe Bill Clinton our undivided loyalty and pay him homage for what he did for Blacks during his Presidency. Loyalty is something earned and something that has to be maintained. You can’t shake our hand one day and then slap us the next, and expect us to still be respect you. And even though, Bill has earned some of our loyalty, he did not maintain it, and insulted BOTH Blacks and WHITES, in South Carolina. It is a well known fact that the Clintons do NOT do anything unless it benefits them politically, so this may explain why Bill becomes so outraged when some of his pawns failed to play by his rules – but this is politics. So many of us refused to become pawns in this political game – this is our right.
Blacks are not so naïve that we will follow Bill Clinton blindly. If Bill Clinton was running for the presidency, then he would have our support, but Hillary isn’t Bill, and from her own admission they both have different policies and agendas (i.e. NAFTA). If Hillary is so much of a stronger candidate then there is absolutely no reason why her campaign should have gone negative, regardless or not if this is just old politics. In the beginning, I was originally a Hillary supporter only because of Bill, which was foolish, and naïve, but watching her campaign from the beginning, I started to realize that she isn’t Bill and started to question what makes her more qualified than Barack. Being privileged to Top Secret information doesn’t make you qualified to be president, which our current president has proven. And remember this; Hillary did NOT have any Security Clearance, when she was in the White House, so what information did Bill ILLEGALLY divulge to her. If her presidency is going to be a joint presidency that she will share with Bill, then is she really capable of running this country by herself. Hillary makes claims that she obtained all of this experience during Bill’s presidency but she fails to produce any concrete evidences (do your research).
So for the many of you who wonder why so many Blacks support Barack, the answer comes down to who we trust more. Barack and Hillary policies are extremely similar and both lack any tangible experience, like most presidential candidates. But Hillary had a chance to show us that she can make the right decision at the right time, but she failed to vote against the Iraq War Resolution or at least raise any issues about, and this wasn’t at 3am in the morning. So we question her judgment under pressure. So again it comes down to who we trust. I’ve done some research on both the Clintons and Obama and have found more troubling things about the Clintons than I found on Obama. So please, do your homework, and I promise you that you will start questioning her honesty much more than her experience or lack of.
The reality is that Whites have always had someone in the White House that represented them, so why shouldn’t we desire the same? And remember this last thing, it will not be Blacks that put Barack Obama, in the White House, because we see him as being black, but it will be Whites that put Barack in the White House because they do not see him as being that. This proves that there is HOPE and maybe, we as a country, will finally come together.
“There will probably always be racism, in this country (both Blacks and Whites), but that doesn’t mean that we cannot take a break from it, now and then.”
