Sure, Obama is struggling, as he doesn’t have the years of practicing the slip ‘n slide that the Clintons have. Hillary and Bill have stooped to a low that is unbecoming of a former president. It wasn’t Obama’s comment that was racist, rather, it was the initial question posed to his as to whether he is in agreement with a comment made more than a decade ago by a notable African American Nobel prize winner as to whether Bill was the “first Black President.”  Why are African American’s consistently made to rationalize, justify, and otherwise explain comments made by other African Americans who are in no way related, other than by race? Let’s be real about the mainstream media continuing to race bait throughout the campaign.

Everyone knows that a young lawyer struggling to be successful in a law firm does what he is told. The very nature of large law firms is to protect, at all cost, its clients who can afford to pay for the very best legal defense, slum loard or not. Assuming that Obama’s role was as he explained it to be, being a junior associate and performing work on behalf of such a client does not represent the travesty that Hillary made it out to be during last night’s debate.

Bottom line is that Obama is double digit IQ points ahead of current president George Bush and if our current president were to be held to the same standard as we are currently holding Obama, or any current candidate, I am certain that he would be impeached. I am tired of the lying, theft, fear mongering and blatent disregard for the American citizen. We commit unfathomable sums of money to Iraq and other nations; yet, our country, its infrastructure and economy is crumbling before us. Come on, if Hillary really wants to be judged on her “record” then let’s talk about how little she has truly accomplished in her long tenure as a “woman of the people,” first lady and senator. She and Bill are wolves in sheeps clothing and talk the talk but don’t walk the walk.

i will support obama over hillary. she is white first and does not serve as a role model to either my son or my daughter. obama in the white house will lift our nation and move it forward in a way that has not happened since the 60’s. hillary is simply more of the same. not to mention, it is not in the nature of bill clinton to be the first man and not greatly influence the decisions of his wife.

the bottom line is that rational, thinking human beings, to the same degree that everyone else is. the difference is that we have NEVER had the opportunity to support an African American candidate who is equally respected and supported by non-blacks. let’s be real. until the media asks every white voter whether they will vote their race or be willing to support a jew, or wasp, then this conversation should end now. the media is guilty of feeding into the senseless conversation being put forth by the clinton machine. i am embarrassed for the former president and appalled, but not surprised.

why in the world is this being tolerated by the executive decision makers at what used to be a respectable news organization. ted turner must be cringing now. is this really news or just entertainment tonight sensationalism delivered by suited anchors with gray hair?

so let me get this straight, we are entering a severe recession, our sitting president wants to start WWIII before he leaves office, our national infrastructure is crumbling, millions of americans cannnot afford health insurance or prescription drugs, our prisons are overflowing, the wave of foreclosures before us is likely to be the single greatest economic disaster in history, we still have not addressed the destruction of hurricane katrina, millions of young men are in prison, the high school graduation rate of our country’s young people is dropping every year, and illegal aliens from mexico and elsewhere in south america are draining our country of every natural and man made resource, and the most pressing issues that came out of last night’s presidential debate is whether black people will vote for obama because he is black, whether former president bill clinton was really the FIRST black president, and whether obama praised ronald reagan.

in the end, i think that we are all in agreement that politicians win votes based upon affinity. obama is certainly a black man but he is a candidate first and has never put forth his race as part of his “qualifications” for the presidency of the united states. unlike hilary who is actively courting the female vote and maccain

Chuck Norris raised a good point, John McCain IS way too old to run for president.  God forbid he is elected and doesn’t see it through his term and Huckabee is the Veep.  I think that, unfortunately, there are serious candidates running for president who could be as bad (stupid, dumb, ignorant, etc.) as current president bush.

On a side note, Chuck Norris is irrelevant to everything.   Please let us live with our fond memories of you as a kung fu star from the 70’s and don’t force us to really tell you what we think about a has been, washed up, never will be again, actor.

John Edwards didn’t waste any time bashing Hillary when he thought that Barak had a strong chance of becoming the democratic nominee. now that barak was beaten by hillary in nevada, john was clearly taking advantage of every opportunity that he could this evening to bash, rather than defend, barak. Come on John, have a backbone and quit sucking up to whichever between hillary and barak you think is leading in the polls.

Johnny boy was clearly uncomfortable during the debate, being unable to chime in with a “me too” when the discussion focused on being disadvantaged. he tried his best not squirm but could not avoid the uncomfortable shaking of his feet under the chair.

Also, you and Hillary should stop your whining and embarrassing efforts to prove that “you have a black friend.” Just say what you mean and mean what you say. The facts will speak for themselves.
