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.

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!

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.

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.

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!

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!!!

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!!

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!

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

@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
