I have just about had enough of this. Race card my ass. People just don’t know their history.
Finally, we get a nearly viable black candidate for President, and he really wants to compete with the first really viable woman candidate for President. So, the race card has been played. Enough already. Where’s the female card? There are a lot more women than black people.
Barack Obama is no Martin Luther King. There. I said it. Show me where that’s wrong?
King was a poor baptist preacher from Georgia. Obama was born in Hawaii and went to private schools. Besides, he’s only half black. King was all black.
I don’t know where it will end but this tit-for-tat war of words will only hurt the Democrats in the election. All I said was, “Dr. King’s dream began to be realized when President Johnson passed the Civil Rights Act” and you would have thought I’d put on a white sheet and set my limo driver on fire.
Then Bill goes out and says Obama’s position on Iraq is a “fairy tale” and suddenly everyone thinks I said Obama’s candidacy is a fairy tale. It is, but that’s beside the point. People just don’t listen anymore.
Well, except Robert Johnson, the founder of BET. As an African-American he tells it like it is and was. Obama used drugs. Those are his words. Not mine. He’s black. Not me.
Anyway, it’s time to end this little war and move on.
