There’s so much to sort out in this case and it’s really hard to know who was in the right at this point. Two things:
1. Obama had no business weighing in on this with his ridiculous and racially inferred comments..........
While I agree with your statement, one must remember it is election time and there are many black votes in this country that may not have voted for Obummer the first time. He’s looking for more.
I think you were replying to me.
I’m sure that Obama’s response has to do with politics. It’s the only thing he knows. My question is, is there any doubt he has the black vote locked up? He got 95% of it last time. Is he looking to bump it up to 96%? Imagine if a large majority of white America voted for a guy simply because he was white. I wonder what word we might be called. I think it starts with an ‘R’...
“... it is election time and there are many black votes in this country...”
That is one of the reason I have felt this case has gotten so much air time. Create race issues and then paint the GOP candidate as a mean cracker. The Democratic Party has to create some sort of fury in order to get certain masses out to vote. IMHO.
