FIRST

I’m starting to get really TIRED of the race/gender issues. Please discuss how you plan on helping this country get OUT of debt, the poor, homeless, jobless…..etc…etc

I’m surprised she didn’t do that whole “I ain’t no ways tired” speech that she did when she was in Selma. Both of those Clintons are shady as all get out.

I will be taking to the streets over the next two weeks going door to door on foot with baby in stroller for OBAMA 2008!

OBAMA is a man and President my child can look up to!

The power of prayer has been the black mother’s gift since the dawn of time. Please let us black mothers and people pray for Obama, for his strength, for his continued success.

Pray for this faithful husband devoted father tireless community organizer and dignified presidential candidate as he ushers in a NEW DAY for ALL of us on his journey to the White House. YES HE CAN!

OBAMA 2008!

Umm, Obama’s winning the African American vote not the white vote. African Americans make up half of the population and are not the majority. Whites give Obama only 10% of their votes, with Edwards currently in the lead and Hilary in second.

Not that polls are accurate anyway.

http://www.whoizjazz.com its getting close on my new cd release,, i have new music snippets and pictures on my site, go take a listen and a look,, this ia a must have cd, you be the judge,, ms jazz

@ Raven2007

African Americans make up 12% of the population. get your facts right!

@lovely and amazing

You better not touch my door, I will stick my fingers on your behind.

why you guys do not say why should we vote for Obama? Because he is black? I am not that stupid.

Hilary 2008.

OBAMA 4 CHANGE IN 2008!

Oh and Mornin!

@Coop

You are right!

@Lauren

What changes if you don’t mind.

@ Lovely And Amazing, you go girl! Thats what I’m talking about!

@Kenya, anything better than what there is now, better schools, safer neighborhoods, lower real estate, just to name a few, not to mention coming out of Iraq. I have no problem with Hil but Obama is who I am supporting.

@Guilty Pleasure

Black do not want to talk about that. There something better than banana.

Ugh, the mud slinging wreaks.. SOO distracting from the damn point, see..this is why r nation..

@Lauren

Well, one of the reason of shaking of real state is increasing of tax. Obama’s plan is to remove bush’s tax cut. How can Obam make the real state better? Don’t you think that safer neighborhoods is state issue not fed?

@ Kenya, I am not a politician, nor do I hear every single thing that the candidates say, but I do listen to Barack Obama, and I like the views he has, the fact that he is a black man (not 100%) is a plus for me, i believe in supporting our intelligent black men.

“According to a recent poll, Obama is leading Clinton in S.C. and Florida.”

Polls had Obama leading – and winning – in New Hampshire and Nevada too.

Look how that turned out.

@Lauren

At least you have reason to support Obama. You go with your feelings. That’s fine.

WARNING: KENYA IS A PLANT.

KENYA IS PLANTED HERE TO ANTAGONIZE AND GET A RISE OUT OF OBAMA SUPPORTRES. PLEASE DO NOT FEEL OBLIGATED TO PROVE, EXPLAIN, DEFINE, OR DEFEND YOUR SUPPORT OF OBAMA.

SUCH UNCREATIVE AND PREDICTIBLE REVERSE RACIAL PSYCHOLOGY KENYA, SO 1960′s CIA. YOUR PLANT GAME IS WEAK.

OBAMA 2008!

OBAMA only lost NH by 2 Points. And he WON Nevada because he got the most delegates, which is what counts for nomination. Sleep on Obama if you must, but he is fighting the GOOD fight and he will win.

YES HE IS, CAN, & WILL!

OBAMA 2008!

let’s NOT forget people that he LIED AND LIED AND LIED about monica until he was forced to tell the truth – nothing from bill clinton, can nor should be trusted – he’ll do anything in his power to get back into the white house and we have the numbers and sense not to allow that! Obama/Bloomberg 2008!!

I like the sound of OBAMA/BLOOMBERG 2008!

Hilary is going to bring our troops home, get the economy out of the red and lower the price of gas per barrel… she has my vote!!!

This sick disease called racisim will be the end of the United States of America if we do not stop it. We have corporation getting tax breaks to send work over seas. We have the same corporation paying these smugglers to sneak in illegal immigrants to work for next to nothing. Where does that live the American citizen screwed.

We keep fighting over race and in the meantime everyone else is screwing both black and white people over. I think it is time we just stop.

The Clinton’s did introduce the race card becuase she was not going to win. And, Obama should not have fell for the banana in the tail pipe. But the reality of it is this if blacks/white people in this country do not open their eyes and see what the hell is going on we will all be walking around eating food out of a garbage can. It is enough already.

We don’t have to be each others friend to respect one another. We all have to share this planet.

Carolina Girl said in response to my plans to go door to door with my baby in stroller in support of OBAMA:

@lovely and amazing

You better not touch my door, I will stick my fingers on your behind.

_______________________________________________

@ Carolina Girl

How dare you threaten to physically assault a mother with child going door to door in support of an upstanding and worthy presidential candidate.

You are vicious mean and sick just like the Clintons. You are classic Billary Cult member. Of course you are against a positive movement for change.

God Bless You dear.

My God, inm y earlier post I asked for prayers for Obama. Now, I must ask, please pray for me and other mothers going dor to door for Obama because Carolina Girl and people like her are not above threatening to physically assault Obama supporters.

See, this is where it starts people with ignorant violent people who don’t even have regard for the safety of children and will stop at nothing to discourage even the very idea of OBAMA.

OBAMA 2008!

What the f**k. This Uncle Charlie really needs to shut his mouth. He stated that neither have lost votes because of race and gender but have kept votes due to their race and gender. Totally false these two are the only two holding their ground for the democrat party. I will be voting for Obama not Hillary. So, Uncle Charlie can keep shuckin and jivin for the Clintons.

Black America Feels the Sting of Ex-President’s Comments

By Darryl Fears

Washington Post Staff Writer

Friday, January 25, 2008; Page A08

For nearly two decades, Yvette Wider, an African American, adored Bill Clinton, once described by a famous black novelist as the nation’s first black president.

But now, after Clinton’s “fairy tale” remark about Sen. Barack Obama (D-Ill.) in New Hampshire and a statement in South Carolina that Obama had put a political “hit job” on him, Wider said she feels she hardly knows the former president. “I was surprised to hear him make a comment like that, because I thought he understood our people better,” said Wider, who said she will vote for Obama in Saturday’s South Carolina primary. “It made me think he’s been playing us all this time.”

Wider’s sentiments are echoing across black America — on blogs, Web chats and talk radio, where Clinton is being attacked as never before.

It is a significant turnabout for Clinton, who throughout most of his presidency counted black people as his staunchest supporters. Less than eight years ago, African Americans gave the former president a stratospherically favorable rating — higher than those for Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton.

With his attacks on Obama, however, that appears to be changing, causing some strategists and observers to wonder whether Clinton’s behavior will alienate black voters whom his wife, Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton (D-N.Y.), will need should she win the nomination.

“The tone of some of the things he said just crossed a line,” said David Bositis, chief researcher for the Joint Center for Political and Economic Studies, a black think tank. A 2000 survey by Bositis showed that 91 percent of African American respondents had a favorable view of Clinton. Bositis said he doubts that the number would be as high if the survey were conducted today.

“He thinks he has some free pass in terms of race,” Bositis said of Clinton. “I’ve been watching the polls and Obama’s been capturing a larger share of the black vote, and Clinton’s like, ‘I’m going to get mad.’ ”

“People say a lot of things when they’re embroiled in battle, and often they wish those things hadn’t been said,” Stevenson said. “I think I wish he hadn’t said it.”

Clinton still has a large share of black supporters. He is a member of the Arkansas Black Hall of Fame in his home state. Viewed objectively, his supporters say, the remarks about Obama on behalf of his wife were appropriate in the hard-fought New Hampshire and South Carolina primaries.

Clinton has defended his “fairy tale” remark, noting that it referred to Obama’s statement that he has always opposed the Iraq war, and was not about Obama’s presidential campaign. He also noted that Obama called his wife the “Senator from Punjab” after she visited India and that Obama’s campaign questioned the former president’s financial dealings.

In a South Carolina attack ad, the Clinton campaign used part of an Obama quote to suggest that he supported Reagan administration policies as economically sound. But Obama criticized the policies as hurtful later in the statement.

“I never said anything disparaging about him or the reality of his campaign,” Clinton said about the fairy tale remark. “It’s a brilliant campaign, and this is an example of how brilliant it is. It rests on a false premise. I wasn’t trying to be sneering or derisive. I was trying to think of a kinder characterization of his argument.”

John Stevenson, a former school superintendent in South Carolina, said the remark upset him but not terribly. “I’m very impressed with Senator Clinton,” he said. “I think Bill did an awful lot as president.”

Others are not as forgiving.

Anthony Peppers, a buyer for a manufacturing firm who lives in South Carolina, said Hillary Clinton’s reputation among black voters will suffer for her husband’s outbursts.

“I’m offended, because I thought she would not have dipped to this level,” Peppers said. “You think she didn’t agree for him to do that? If you have someone that close to you saying that, then it’s her. She’s got to live with it.”

Wider’s views were even sharper. “He can identify with us as much as he wants, but unless you’re black, you don’t know as much about it,” she said. “I guess he’s part of the old-boy system, too.”

In New York, Sharon Toomer, founder and managing editor of BlackandBrownNews.com, is not so sure that black people will turn out for Clinton. In a column, Toomer said she disagrees with novelist Toni Morrison’s tongue-in-cheek characterization of Clinton as a black president, and with pundit Donna Brazile’s statement that Clinton was a soldier for black people.

The crime control act signed by Clinton led to a disastrous spike in the black prisoner population, and the welfare-to-work legislation he signed was damaging to black families, Toomer wrote.

Clinton’s tone toward Obama “was demeaning,” Toomer said in a telephone interview. “He was calling him a boy, a kid, living in a dream land. I don’t think he deserves the title of being a friend or being the first black president.”

Ron Walters, a University of Maryland political science professor, asserted that Clinton did nothing to stop the massacre in Rwanda during his administration and failed to act as AIDS decimated southern Africa. Walters, too, is not sure black voters would go to the polls for Hillary Clinton in the general election.

“[Bill] Clinton is the leading edge of this campaign, whether he wants to be or not,” Walters said. “To the extent that his image declines in the black community, it’s bound to have an effect on the entire enterprise.”

During radio shows where Walters has appeared, he said: “Black people were calling saying, ‘How dare they?’ I don’t believe any of this was accidental. I think they panicked because Barack had caught up . . . in the national polls.”

Clinton attempted damage control while appearing on Sharpton’s radio show. “I think he clearly was hurt by it,” Sharpton said of the criticism. “I think part of his legacy is having a good relation ship with African Americans, and he didn’t want to go down in history as having broken that relationship.”

Tom Joyner, whose syndicated radio show is among the most popular on black radio stations, recently released a statement criticizing Clinton after an appearance by the former president. “When he spoke this morning, some people thought he was saying, I’ve done so much for black people, how dare you question me?” Joyner said.

Even with the criticism of Clinton, however, some in the black community believe that it will make little difference. Black voters will overwhelming support the Democratic nominee, no matter who it is, they say.

“I don’t think the Clintons are the enemy to most black people,” said Melissa Harris-Lacewell, an associate professor of politics and African American studies at Princeton University. “If Hillary succeeds, black people are going to vote for her. They might not be excited.”

I going door to door in Memphis TN with my 51 mama campaigning for Barack Obama as I have promised! Do the right thing, Black America. It’s time to stop being afraid and stand behind a STRONG BLACK MAN for change we need!

Obama 2008.

I think that it is totally okay to vote for whoever you want to in the election. What I object to is the fact that the Clintons’ who have enjoyed almost universal support of black people, did not hesitate to throw us under the bus as soon as the election got close. Anyone who thinks that they are not playing the race game, wake up. He takes every opportunity to point out that Barack is a black man and therefore he will win SC because of the large black population. By doing this, he sends out the message that Obama is the “black” candidate. I suggest that black people become really educated about the Clinton record instead of believing the hype about him being the “first black president.” Or paying attention to the black power elites like Andrew Young, John Lewis, and Charlie Rangel who in their denigration of a decent black man, have all tarnished their own standing in the black community. I also want to point out that everyone is saying that black people are supporting Obama because he’s black, but how many white people have they asked who support Edwards or Clinton, if they are doing so because they are white. And let’s not forget that Obama won Iowa with a black population of less than 3% and almost won NH with an even smaller black population. So, he does have a large base of non-black supporters no matter how the Clintons are trying to show otherwise.

Morning,

Obama has a longer legislative history and more legislative experience than Hillary Clinton. Her experience is based on her years as a first lady, not as a legislator. So maybe she is not ready. If my husband was a surgeon does that qualify me to perform surgery? And I also suggest that if you don’t know anything about his platform there are many sources that you can use to find out. That excuse about him being a great speech maker with no real ideas or solutions, is nonsense. And my final point is that considering how much the Republicans hate the Clintons do you honestly believe she will be able to get an agenda through should she be elected? He has a record of working with both sides of the aisle and is respected by people on all sides. Your argument sounds like it came straight from Clintons, heavy on words but light on the truth.

@ H- I concur 200%

@ Morning- Have you considered that Hillary will be such a divisive and polarizing force that it’ll yield her completely ineffective during her presidency. Don’t you recall her failed healthcare plan? The Republicans spent in excess of $100 million to defeat her healthcare plan. Are you comfortable voting for someone who would lie, distort and steal the nomination?

I agree with Bill. Pastor Manning saw this too. Hillary is the one for 2008.

Love ya Belle!! I was a initially a Clinton supporter. I frankly wanted Bill back in the White House…and if Hillary had to be the vehicle to get there I was still on board.

However, after comparing the two platforms (Obama vs. Clinton) I more impressed w/Obama. I’ve been completely turned off by the blatant racial tactics that the Clintons have used to win/steal this race. Clinton obviously isn’t the demi-god that the African American community has made him out to be. I wish the media would start focusing on the more negative aspects of his presidency that America seems to have forgotten.

Morning,

Not that I’m an Obama supporter (since I’ve watched two debates and learned how moderate all of the Dem candidates really are) but I don’t think Hilary has established her goals for change either. Everyone keeps saying that Hilary has experience. And that’s what? 35 years of becoming more entrenched in the political game in Washington? It’s certainly not experience in getting rid of private health care.

Obama’s debating skills leave much to be desired as he tends to pause and insert enough “uh”s to fill a convention hall. But when asked, he does express his plans too. At least from what I’ve seen.

In fact, it must be reiterated here since it doesn’t seem like anyone here bothers to state what they know about the candidates, I have to remind you that neither Hilary, Obama, or Edwards will get ouf of Iraq once in office. These are the same people that keep repeating how they were against the war and that Bush was wrong for putting us into this mess. They’re actually going to continue to collect America’s hard-working tax dollars to pay for a war that shouldn’t have begun in the first place. Money that should go to schools, the environment, and health care.

None of them want real universal, free healthcare. Check their sites out, you’ll see it yourselves. We’ll be paying high prices to private companies for another century people.

None of them are different. They’re all politicians. But I’d still go for Obama because Hilary’s been a politician for such a long time that I don’t even think she remembers what normal people need in their lives anymore. Either that or she doesn’t care.

Inside sources say that Obama is losing support among older black women to Hillary. It’s going to be pretty close tomorrow. I hope that these old black women are not going to betray us. Bill Clinton has been photographed with older black women all week. SISTAS SUPPORT OBAMA! THE CIVIL RIGHTS GENERATION HAS DESTROYED OUR POLITICAL POWER!

There is nothing in that statement that is racist or playing the race card. It’s 100% true. Look at the polls. Whites are overwhelming voting for Hillary and Blacks are overwhelming voting for Obama. Obama’s % of the black vote dropped 10 full percent in the last week.

Will you stand against the Clinton Smear Tactics?

MAKE YORU VOICE HEARD! But PLEASE BE INTELLIGENT ABOUT YOUR COMMENTS!

http://www.thepetitionsite.com/1/dnc-ple…

I am voting for O but don’t believe the hype about the war. None of those troops are coming home anytime soon. I am keeping hope alive but I admit its on life support right now. O will win South Carolina and a bunch of southern states but the Clintons have sucessfully marginized his support among Whites and Latinos. Only upper-income Democrats and African-Americans seem to be in his corner. I hope with a win he can win more of the blue collar voters back. The GOP is just itching to go after Hillary. I need O to get his Latino outreach going. He has us (African-Americans), but he has to bring whites and some Latinos over. The win tomorrow will help. I just don’t think Hillary can pull it out in November, especially if we (Black folk) stay home. It is at the point now that if she is the nominee…I can’t see myself getting worked up to vote for her. Plus, I live in DC so she will have our electoral votes anyway but I don’t see me rushing out to campaign for her in Pa., Ohio and Virginia like I did for Kerry or like I will do if Obama gets the nomination.

And for my Latino peeps…Is it really like that? Will you guys never vote for a Black canidate?

Well, as long as Rudy (scary-ass) Guiliani gets out after Romney and McCain trump him in Florida, this country won’t end up too bad.

I think I understand now why Malcom X would not work with the civil rights leaders in the sixties. Read his autobiography. It was definately prophetic. I now understand why our communities always wind up with the short end of the stick. These so called black leaders that we put in office could care less about us. It is more about power for them.

They think if they say Martin Luther King Jr’s name a hundred times that will make us vote for whomever they tell us to vote for.

Because the Clinton’s have shown how nasty they can be and these so call black leaders have shown how nasty and just down right ignorant they can be. I will not vote for her if she gets the nomination. Because I think you should run off what you have done not what your husband did.

The only thing she tried to do when she was in the white house was a failed health insurance plan. She was not in his cabinet, on any of his committee’s or part of any of the economic planning. And, if she was so smart and had such strong leadership skills then why didn’t he use her then. Did she all of sudden become smart.

She is trying to act like she grew up poor and she was far from it. Look up who her father was. A steel magnate. People do your research.

There is nothing wrong with growing up reach, hell I wished I did, but there is something wrong when you try and hide it. Look at all of these uncle tom sambo ass people backing them. That she pretty much tell you what to expect from her presidency for us.

BARACK OBAMA PRESIDENT 2008!!! SOUTH CAROLINA STAND UP VOTE BARACK OBAMA!

BOB JOHNSON is a COON….Pass the word.

@lovely and amazing

If my game is weak, why are you whining? Im just wait and see how the country will be under someone who is inspired by Reagan. Give me a break!

—————————————————–

“I don’t want to present myself as some sort of singular figure. I think part of what is different is the times. I do think that, for example, the 1980 election was different. I think Ronald Reagan changed the trajectory of America in a way that Richard Nixon did not and in a way that Bill Clinton did not. He put us on a fundamentally different path because the country was ready for it. They felt like with all the excesses of the 60s and the 70s and government had grown and grown but there wasn’t much sense of accountability in terms of how it was operating. I think he tapped into what people were already feeling. Which is we want clarity, we want optimism, we want a return to that sense of dynamism and entrepreneurship that had been missing.”

—————————————————–

What Regan did to your community.

After taking office in 1981, Reagan began a sustained attack on the government’s civil rights apparatus, opened an assault on affirmative action and social welfare programs, embraced the white racist leaders of then-apartheid South Africa and waged war on a tiny, black Caribbean nation.

So thorough was Reagan’s attack on programs of importance to African Americans, that the Citizens Commission on Civil Rights, an organization formed in the wake of Reagan’s attempt to neuter the official U.S. Commission on Civil Rights, said he caused “an across-the-board breakdown in the machinery constructed by six previous administrations to protect civil rights.”

please, i live in new york and he’s the most dull but effective mayor to date – he’s stingy as hell too, with his billions but he is about spreading the wealth [not his, don't get that twisted] but the common wealth – with obama’s intellect, looks, and bloombergs money and money sense, we’ll be out of this recession in no time!! do the math son

@Fabiola Gonçal

We are not in recession yet.

@Kenya – and the dow arrow pointing down for the last three months is just .. ? – you probably think bush is smart and clinton never had sexual relations, ha?

@Nita

The clinton’s wrong doings do not make him a good leader. Im not judging Obama by comparing him with Hilary. I do not believe on politics of home and believe on issues. If Obama and Hilary divides Democratics how can one of them unites Washington? It is just stupid.

I brought here the issue of “no agenda for africa”, do you want to say that I got it from Hilary’s camp? I have refused to be brainwashed by Jon Favreau’s speech.

“We have scorned our gay brothers and sisters instead of embracing them.” …Obama

@ belle

Thank you for your comments. Very true and practical indeed. Thank you.

Kenya is a plant. Ignore him if you choose to do so. He’s just antagonizing and insulting for the sake of distracting Obama supporters. No basis or sincerity. He’s just a plant.

HILLARY FOR PRESIDENT!! HILLARY FOR PRESIDENT!!HILLARY FOR PRESIDENT!!HILLARY FOR PRESIDENT!!HILLARY FOR PRESIDENT!!HILLARY FOR PRESIDENT!!HILLARY FOR PRESIDENT!!HILLARY FOR PRESIDENT!!HILLARY FOR PRESIDENT!!HILLARY FOR PRESIDENT!!HILLARY FOR PRESIDENT!!HILLARY FOR PRESIDENT!!HILLARY FOR PRESIDENT!!HILLARY FOR PRESIDENT!!HILLARY FOR PRESIDENT!!HILLARY FOR PRESIDENT!!HILLARY FOR PRESIDENT!!HILLARY FOR PRESIDENT!!HILLARY FOR PRESIDENT!!HILLARY FOR PRESIDENT!!HILLARY FOR PRESIDENT!!HILLARY FOR PRESIDENT!!HILLARY FOR PRESIDENT!!HILLARY FOR PRESIDENT!!HILLARY FOR PRESIDENT!!HILLARY FOR PRESIDENT!!HILLARY FOR PRESIDENT!!HILLARY FOR PRESIDENT!!

HILLARY FOR PRESIDENT!!

This ishnit started when coons called Slick Willy the first “black” president.And now peeps are shocked he fired buckshot in their asses. Pulease.

as eloquent as obama is…..

actual experience may have helped him; evaluate, forsee, and eventually sidestep the race issue.

He started his campaign having everyone as humans, charged about his and our prospects for America’s future. Now, he goes and allows himself to be pulled into a shortsighted issue that has him and the media focusing on the black vote.

The young vote, not dispersed along racial lines could get him elected, if they continue to feel charged enough to vote.

In case the young vote no longer feels charged enough to vote, how is he going to win over the middle aged vote who widely believes that he is too inexperienced to lead us.

They don’t appear to be against him, they root for him because they don’t want him or his future prospects to become discouraged; but they are not going to vote for him once they go into that booth. Because of the turn the campaign has taken, he has his work cut out for him.

“WARNING: KENYA IS A PLANT.

OBAMA 2008!”

I Co-Sign with the above statement!

Black Folks, This is what they do (CIA and other Political US Government Agencies) ALL OVER THE WORLD!

Disrupt the Polictical Process, so that THEY can Attain/Keep Power, or put who THEY want in Power.

WE ARE NOT FOOLED!

We Know all about your “Divide and Conquer” Tactics

REMEMBER when we were all in Elementary School, and were asked “What do you want to be when you grow up”?

The “Inner-Child” in me still believes that Senator Obama can, and will win!

I perception was ok, its a tough race and they should go at it as much as possible to win because it is a fight for Prez, so I did not mind some of the back and forth bickering going on at first even attacks on O , because I figured he was going to need that discipline expierence for the national election when things really start cooking…But a line had to be drawn…AND THAT WAS THE RACE CARD, I am now loosing much respect for hill and bill for using that knowing it will turn off some white votes for O…that is just pure tack and hillbilly of them.

Of course with a name like wasssssssssup!!!! you are a Billary cult member.

Happily joining your buddy “I ain’t no ways tired” in the field picking cotton to fund your massa Billary’s slander and defamation campaign against the MORE intelligent, dignified, capable, prepared, qualified, experienced, and ready presidential candidate BARACK OBAMA!!

You keep picking that cotton and when Massa Billary walks by keep doing your little shuffle dance while screaming wassssssssssssup!!!! Oh they just love it. Billarys like “Oh, Bill look at our boy wassssssssup!!! he’s so happy on our plantation” and he talks slang to us cdause he knows we’re “really black”.

Ha Ha Ha they laugh at you while sipping their bitter envious lying lemonade that you happily fetch and refill at snap of their finger.

Hillary Clinton hates black women and has done nothing as a so-called feminist icon and in her two terms as NY State Senator to positively affect the lives of black women and girls. She’s self-centered and insincere and that’s why Oprah is not supporting her. Michelle Obama is the better first legacy for women as the first African-American first lady she will have a tremndously positive effect on our nation.

OBAMA 2008!!!!

I think now I am supporting better school system in the black neigborhood maybe be the will do better thinking in the next election.

Wait a minute! Did Reagan supported apartheid in south africa? Apartheid is racial, political, and economic segregation based on race and the colour of skin. I wonder how Obama is inspired by him. Maybe some is planning the new segregation against whites and latinos.

I know today is Obama’s birthday in SC, most of you might have a good weekend. Ciao.

@lovely and amazing

Do not brainwashed black women, I know what Hillary did for women.

Hillary is leading the charge in the Senate to strengthen equal pay laws and end pay disparities between men and women.

She introduced the Paycheck Fairness Act to strengthen the penalties associated with wage discrimination, to ensure that the federal government sets a higher standard, and to increase oversight of employers.

Hillary has also worked to increase access to capital and other support for women-owned businesses.

She has expanded access to family planning services, including for low-income women.

She spoke out forcefully against the Supreme Court’s April 2007 decision that — for the first time in decades — failed to recognize the importance of women’s health.

She has advocated for access to microfinance programs that enable women to start their own businesses and spoken out strongly against the tragic practice of sex trafficking.

“women’s rights are human rights” . Hillary

Quote of the day.

“Sen. Clinton and Sen. Obama have brought their New York- and Chicago-style politics to South Carolina. Fighting with each other, tearing each other down, but South Carolina’s better than that, and you deserve better than that.”…Edwards

Brainwash? How condescending. As if black women can’t think for themselves.

Billary has done nothing to positively affect the lives of black women and girls. Nothing. She has denied funding to organizations serving black women and girls. If Hillary is so all-encompassing then why it it black women who need to create their own community and health initiatives and outreach. While because of Billary more and more white girls feel encouraged and empowered to go on to medical school more and more black girls are compartively ignored and struggling.

Married to and raising two, I think Obama the better choice for Black Women.

OBAMA 2008!

I have a sense of humor. Obama’s birthday in SC, cute. The Edwards quote, very earnest and moving, but we must clarify it is Billary’s New York style politics and beat down tactics and Obama’s grace and professionalism that has joined Edwards in SC.

OBAMA 2008!!

FOR THE SISTAS who say they are voting for a woman/HRC b/c she is the best one for the job, and that they are not looking a race or gender…

Consider this the next time ya’ll dog a brotha when you see a successful black man (i.e. Reggie and Kim K, or any other brotha) w/ a white woman, “HE JUST PICK’D THE RIGHT WOMAN FOR THE JOB” remember he ain’t looking at race.

Now you not only pick’d a white woman over a brotha, but a blond, blue-eyed white woman. Now ya see where the brothas are coming from…

YEAH, WHITE WOMEN NOW, WHITE WOMEN FOREVER!!!

Speak Ride or Die!

Sisters should be ashamed of themselves if they vote for the Billary Clintons over the Obama Family.

Obama is married to and raising two, who better to understand Black Women.

Obama 2008!

Whoever write this articile need to go sit their tired a–s down. People like you make me sick, calling older civil rights leaders chiltin curcuit. Where was you butt when there was white only signs, we were getting beat for walking in town after a certain time, or your couldn’t get a sandwich unless you went around to the back. Bob/Bet is a sell out but never call those that put their lives on the line so your smelling butt could one day sit in a office never forget you damn paas –without them you would not have had a future.

You people are all funny, I moved out of America because of this major issue, living in Germany has it’s ups and downs but it’s nothing like living in a country where race is the most important thing. The world looks at Americans like they are idiots, and with this race so divided among racial lines it will be even more critical. I am Black American but America gives me the creeps. BTW Hillary will win, America is still not ready for a black president and it shows right here in this blog.

Are you saying that black people should support only black people? isn’t that segregating oneself? is that also not being able to have a freeness of choice? if I don’t agree with my own race, does that make me a sell-out. What a bunch of hypocrites!

Pia please – that’s what people love about this country – freedom of speech, freedom to pick and choose what you wish. I too have suffered injustices and with the recent attention give to “immigrants” it doesn’t get better. However if my own race decides on an individual who is not of my color, I’m not going to be a cry-baby about it and tag that one a “sell-out”. Please, those of us who are of color have and continue to suffer injustices, not just the black community. Quit your whining. It’s boring already.
