Yeah, I have a thought-what kind of insults would be tossed at a white candidate who was expected to show more concern for the plight of whites as a race, rather than Americans as a whole? I am so sick of identity politics, or at least of identity politics that work every which way except one.
I’m not quite sure what you are saying, but the Black man’s questions did not mention race or the exaggerated adverse effects Obama’s policies have had on Blacks. It seemed a personal question for the guy, but one with broader implications, certainly.
Romney answered it with appropriate concern, and attention to the question, not in a pandering way, but Obama’s answer seemed to lack any human connection at all, and even seemed to have an air of contempt.
