Is this the grandmother he called a “racist?”

Yes. She served one purpose in life and she'll serve another in death. Actually, I don't think he called her a racist. He called her a "typical white" person with respect to fearing other races.

It is thought that they have never met Grandma. Which is very strange.

Sad news.

The question now is, can Obama handle the strains of a difficult presidential transition and grieve for his grandmother at the same time? I doubt it.

He should withdraw his candidacy and spend the next several weeks where he belongs, with his family.

I thought she had broken her hip and was having a difficult recovery?

Fox is stating she died of cancer. I didn’t know she had cancer, I thought she had fallen down and broken a hip, or their was complications due to a fall.

My sympathy to the family. But I doubt if he will get sympathy votes out of this.

“I am not so sure they were that close. But it makes me wonder why the heck Obama didnt spend more than an hour with her and where were the wife and kids!”

Really none of our business.
Family relations are not always what people looking from the outside think they should be.

I dislike Obama’s socialist policies, not the amount of time that he or his family spent with a dying relative.
