Repost - I'm very sad... I just found out from Hillary that the only reason I support Obama is because either I'm not hard working or I'm not white. http://blogs.usatoday.com/onpolitics/2008/05/wh... According to her, Obama can't win "hard working Americans, white Americans"... This lady is disgusting. So this is where we're going now? I'm afraid she may just be THAT delusional and may want to take this to the convention... She's definitely not trying to heal any divisions or reach out. This lady needs to be shown the door quickly. I just wrote to Levin and Stabenow to let them know how disguted i am with her...

Anyone who cares at all about healing the racial divides in this country and ending racist and race-baiting politicial tactics - no matter your race or ethnicity - should reject Hillary Clinton and urge her to stop down now. Hillary's win-at-any-costs strategy is not only hurting the Democratic party but it's severely damaging her future reputation. She better quit now before the Clinton stock is completely worthless.
Why do we continue to watch the mental disease that is Hillary? Why must we rubberneck on the road to freedom?

It's 2:31 AM. The Democratic Party is sleeping peacefully when it hears its phone buzz on the night stand. It rolls over and sees "Hillary" on the caller ID. It pauses briefly, considering pushing "END" and not dealing with this shit tonight. The thought is appealing but the Democratic Party knows that if it doesn't take this call, another one is only minutes away.
DEMS: ...Hello?
Hillary: Hey baby.
DEMS: C'mon Hillary. Enough with this.
Hillary: Don't you get it? You NEED me.
DEMS: No, I don't. It was fun while it lasted but I'm with Barack now. I made my choice, it's done.
Hillary: You can't really mean that. How can you say that after all the good times we had?
DEMS: To be honest, I started hanging out with you because Bill's pretty awesome.
Hillary: But I'm just like Bill!
DEMS: No, you're not. Bill is charismatic, inspiring, and gets me really good weed.
Hillary: Fuck you. You're elitist!
DEMS: I'm going back to sleep.

It seems to me the real reason HIllary is continuing on and the reason driving her, is about her doubts that an African American has the ability to win a presidential election. She has never said that outright but it seems clearer the longer this campaign continues. Perhaps Senator Clinton is right, it just may be that Americans will turn away from having a black president, but I think the American voter has the right to decide that, not Hillary Clinton.
Hillary is in the dark ages. Most people today are not concerned with skin color, ethnic type, who someone is friends with or someones sexual preference. People who are in the state of mind that cause diversion and hate towards ones neighbor, next door or thousands of miles away, are in a totally different dimension than most of America. The America of today is one who wants love towards one another and peace and good will in the world. This is the 'NEW CHANGE" coming to this country and the change that will bring our country back to what she is supposed to be. "WE, THE PEOPLE" are "CLEANING" house and the corruption and hate "WILL" be swept out! Dignity and respect will come back to this country.

I went to see Wynton Marsalis at the Ken Cen last night. Towards the end of his first set, he acknowledged the more than 200 DC Public School kids who were in attendance. This is due to a program he and WPAS and DCPS have for bringing music back to DCPS. And then he said "It's great to have an integrated audience." And I thought, you know, we have Obama to thank for him making that remark. He never would have said that out loud before Obama's speech on race. I hope we can continue to go forward this way, and get Hillary the drugs she needs.

Comments and insinuations like these are why people are calling for her to bow out gracefully. She is counting on his failure, rather than her own success. She is riding the coat tails of her husband's presidency. She is counting on division rather than unity, pitting Whites, Blacks and Hispanics against one another. I am an American of Puerto Rican descent and my great regret is that the Puerto Rican people will vote for her out of allegiance to her husband. Why should she bow out? Look at the mindset that she is pandering to - divide and conquer, win at all costs, nothing else matters. Dirty up the other guy, wait for him to misstep and pounce. We need a change - that message seems naive to some, but I am a 41 year old father of two sons and I want better for them. Hope is not a dirty word. Obama '08

Are there any working class blacks in her world?
Hillary and her team are using very racist tactics that would even make the GOP blush. This has to end now, and I don't see the point of her continuing especially since she has lost.
Hillary lumps all black people together and she believes that she can use them now and be very racist against them but somehow steal the nomination and in November they of course will vote for her because, black people are all the same and of course there are no working class blacks.

Seriously I think Hillary and Bill have gone crazy. They have become completely detached from reality. Unhinged. As I believe that Hillary has a mild Personality Disorder, it's important to remember that when these people tilt--they tilt very far. The capacity of a personality-disordered person to go completely off the rails is a sight to behold.
Hillary has narcissistic personality disorder. Not winning the nomination threatens to uncover something about herself, to herself, that she has been avoiding for a long time. I don't know what that is.
This is now just a study in psychology. There's no politics here.

As a hard-working black man, let me not mince words, fuck her!
Enough is enough, even if she did somehow manage to steal the nomination from Obama, she's will get beaten, badly, in Novemeber. Given how racially tinged this race has been and the fact that the country is 65% or so white, she should have been blowing the doors off of Obama, but she hasn't and that says volumes. So she can take her Jim Crow, "fear of a black man" tactics and go find the nearest KKK meeting to solicite votes from, she's through with this campaign.
She's had every advantage a candidate could want and she's still getting her butt handed to her by the "inexeperienced" and apparently lazy Senator Obama. I think her lack of winning is as much an indication of her inability to win as it is Obamas ability to defy the expectations set by many a year ago.
The pundits have been politely asking her to step down or at least play nice for the last couple of months, maybe it's time to no longer be so polite.

Innovative White Paper Assesses Presidential Candidates Financial Psychology and Global impact A White Paper released by the Perth Leadership Institute and written by leadership expert and author Dr. E. Ted Prince analyzes the final three U. S. presidential candidates from a novel and intriguing perspective; their impact on the economy, U.S. global leadership and competitiveness. This White Paper asks whether the presidential candidates will keep the U.S. in the forefront of the world’s leading countries and societies. It concludes that none of the three candidates will have such an impact and the choice is between who will have the least adverse impact on U.S. world leadership and competitive position.
According to Dr. E. Ted Prince, Founder and CEO of the Institute: “Value creation by leaders, whether they are political or business, is more than a matter of wise stewardship of resources. It is, or should be, also about value creation. Analysis of the candidates reveals that they are far more about resource redistribution than about value creation. This has huge, and adverse, ramifications for the U.S, global competitive and leadership position now and in the future.”
The paper examines in detail the behavioral finance characteristics of the three front-runners and shows who is likely to have the most and the least adverse impacts on U.S. global position.
Gotta make a correction to my comment below. Clinton obviously did not win IN by 14%. I meant to say that she only won the white vote by 14%.

I just created an account to dispel something that seems to be pervasive. Black people do not overwhelmingly support a candidate based on race. If you look at polls both exit and polling data Hillary Clinton enjoyed a large support of the black vote until Iowa. From there the politics of painting Obama as a black candidate were put in play. No his affiliation with Rev. Wright did not help that. However, to accuse black people of being essentially color following sheep is in stark contrast to the facts. Yes there are some black people that vote for him based on his skin color, yes there are some women and white people that support Hillary based on those things. Also there are people that refuse to be open and vote AGAINST either of these candidates based on those things. However, the politics of race baiting and dismissiveness of race has led for a galvanized base against those sort or tactics. The more Hillary and others try to diminish the black vote the more it goes against her. Also it should be noted that Hillary is losing support among other minority groups. Why? Because she's stopped pandering to them. Since Texas has there been any mention of Hispanics by her?

I do hope the public will remember the nasty clawing this woman has exhibited, this will to destroy another person just for the sake of her own hunger for power. I hope she will never ever be able to show her face in public again. What worries me is that the mainstream media is still afraid of the Clintons. None of her racism is brought to print.

I think I fit the profile. Yet from being my 3rd/4th choice when the race was still wide open, to being my first choice when it narrowed to 2, to now where I will hold my nose and vote for her rather than McCain if somehow she got the nomination, for this working stiff her support has eroded considerably. What would have prevented this? She could have put a heavy duty muzzle on Bill first off. Secondly, she could have fired all those outdated pros working her campaign and run something without the spin and back-stabbing.
Now from various things coming out of her campaign, it appears either her grasp of reality is akin to the average neo-con's, or her honesty got left behind while she's on the campaign trail. Either trait puts her in the realm of only worth voting for because her party label is D, not R. After almost 8 years of Bush and republican rule, I'd vote for anything that will keep their sorry asses out of office, even a DINO or a whiny ass boomer with delusions of anointment .

GrahamCrackerDC said:
"Clinton is being racist . . . but the worst racism is being exhibited by black voters -- voting 92% for Obama."
What a load of crap. So your arguement is that Obama is winning because a group that makes up less than 10% of the total population supports him overwhelmingly? Your assesment is short-sighted and kind of dumb. The major problem I have is that by your thinking black people only vote on skin color. That would mean that Jesse Jackson, Al Sharpton, Alan Keyes, etc should have enjoyed similar support, BUT NONE OF THEM DID!
Maybe the "reason" (as if there is just one) that black people vote for Obama in such large numbers is because of comments like the one in question. Her campaign has run an only slightly veiled strategy of writing off the black vote as irrelevant and pandering to close-minded folks who fear the thought of a person with dark skin sleeping in the White House.
People like you always conveniently forget that before the Clintons pulled out the white robes and burning crosses in South Carolina it was Hillary, not Obama, who had the lions share of support within the black community. People like you WANT I daresay NEED to believe that the only reason black people support Obama is because of shared skin color, but you forget that black people have been the most reliable Democratic voting bloc for at least the last 50 years and have gotten more than a couple white folks elected.
It simply amazes me that people still think that the 3rd (not even second) largest minority group in this country can effectively choose the next POTUS on their own. I guess those same people that actually bought the bull-crap being pushed by McCain and Clinton that Obama, not them, are the "elitists", It's almost comical that the multi-millionare, Ivy league educated, well connected, part of racial majority candidates can accuse the black guy who isn't even a millionaire of being the "elitist" in the USA of today.

What a generalization.

What is happening with Obama and black people is an anomaly, not the norm. As I said before it is as much about the Clintons giving the finger to the black community as it is about any appeal that Obama may have in said community.

So keep on, GrahamCrackerDC, doing the work of Rush Limbaugh. I'll do my part to expose Rush's support for your candidate now that she's deliberately ruining the election, I want to make sure that she has the albatross of Rush Limbaugh over her head for all time.
I hope you enjoy your new bed. You sure went to alot of trouble making it.
What would have prevented this? She could have put a heavy duty muzzle on Bill first off. Secondly, she could have fired all those outdated pros working her campaign and run something without the spin and back-stabbing.
Now from various things coming out of her campaign, it appears either her grasp of reality is akin to the average neo-con's, or her honesty got left behind while she's on the campaign trail. Either trait puts her in the realm of only worth voting for because her party label is D, not R. After almost 8 years of Bush and republican rule, I'd vote for anything that will keep their sorry asses out of office, even a DINO or a whiny ass boomer with delusions of anointment .
"Essentially telegraphed by Spiro Begala's vicious and retro "blacks and egg-heads" slur the other evening."
It was not vicious or retro. Obama's strongest support is among blacks and college-educated affluent whites.
Begala was simply pointing out a well-documented fact -- and that historically, you can't win the Presidency with just those two groups.
"Clinton is being racist . . . but the worst racism is being exhibited by black voters -- voting 92% for Obama."
What a load of crap. So your arguement is that Obama is winning because a group that makes up less than 10% of the total population supports him overwhelmingly? Your assesment is short-sighted and kind of dumb. The major problem I have is that by your thinking black people only vote on skin color. That would mean that Jesse Jackson, Al Sharpton, Alan Keyes, etc should have enjoyed similar support, BUT NONE OF THEM DID!
Maybe the "reason" (as if there is just one) that black people vote for Obama in such large numbers is because of comments like the one in question. Her campaign has run an only slightly veiled strategy of writing off the black vote as irrelevant and pandering to close-minded folks who fear the thought of a person with dark skin sleeping in the White House.
People like you always conveniently forget that before the Clintons pulled out the white robes and burning crosses in South Carolina it was Hillary, not Obama, who had the lions share of support within the black community. People like you WANT I daresay NEED to believe that the only reason black people support Obama is because of shared skin color, but you forget that black people have been the most reliable Democratic voting bloc for at least the last 50 years and have gotten more than a couple white folks elected.
It simply amazes me that people still think that the 3rd (not even second) largest minority group in this country can effectively choose the next POTUS on their own. I guess those same people that actually bought the bull-crap being pushed by McCain and Clinton that Obama, not them, are the "elitists", It's almost comical that the multi-millionare, Ivy league educated, well connected, part of racial majority candidates can accuse the black guy who isn't even a millionaire of being the "elitist" in the USA of today.
Except for black voters, who vote 92% for Obama. (I don't blame them -- but they are obviously voting based on skin color).
"GrahamCrackerDC: . . . So if a black person votes for another black person then -- no matter what -- that decision is based on skin color, according to YOU. That is exactly what you said. YIKES."
Nope -- but when a group votes 92% for Obama, skin color has something to do with it.
Put another way -- blacks are FAR MORE likely to vote for a black candidate, than whites are to vote for a white candidate.
"Put another way -- blacks are FAR MORE likely to vote for a black candidate, than whites are to vote for a white candidate."
What a generalization. I would say considering that no black candidate has EVER been POTUS, or even nominated by his/her party, I would say that white people have shown a shockingly consistant pattern of not voting for black people. What is happening with Obama and black people is an anomaly, not the norm. As I said before it is as much about the Clintons giving the finger to the black community as it is about any appeal that Obama may have in said community.
