I don’t think he expected Clinton to bring it up but he did expect it to be brought up by republicans.
I have a feeling that he wrote most of this speech a long time ago anticipating that it would be brought up after he won the nomination. This is a speech that brings out the base and tries to make conservatives look guilty. Why would you want to try to bring out your base after you win most of the caucuses and southern states?
How do you just come up with a complex theory of race relations after just a few days? For example:
“The profound mistake of Reverend Wright’s sermons is not that he spoke about racism in our society. It’s that he spoke as if our society was static; as if no progress has been made”
huh??? Is that the first thing that comes from your mind after watching the videos?
“It’s that he spoke as if our society was static . . .”
Why didn’t BO in his speech attempt to correct Wright’s charges that whites infected blacks with the aids virus, caused 9-11, continue to oppress the Palestinians, and help the evil Zionists . . .?
That to having a white skin automatically makes you a racist?
