Negros cry "It's a black thing isn't?"



Of course, it is always expected that, anytime somebody says something about somebody being black, it usually ends up being misinterpreted as racist comment.
I agree with Mrs. Ferraro and if the negro population would stop and smell the coffee, they would realize that she has said a very true thing.
If Barack Obama was a white man, he would not be in the position he es now, the darling of the mainstream media and of half the population that have participated so far in the democratic primaries as well.
The man is just a novelty and the vehicle for the african-american, and this is a big word, given that he is not an authentic member of the negro race, to make history as the first person of color to get the democratic nomination for a presidential election.
Oh, but really?, all of you people embracing Obama and his campaign promises, really think that he can withstand a trashing by the republicans in the next phase?
As a true democrat and faithful to my party, I will vote for Mr. Obama if he gets the nomination, even though my horse was Bill Richardson, but in hopes of electing a democrat to the White House, we really need to think hard and realize that Barack Obama is no match for Mr. McCain and the republican machine. Obviously, at this point only Hillary Clinton, who was not my first choice for the job, is the only one with the experience to do the job. Nothing against the blacks but, like I said at the beginning, the storm the followed after Geraldine Ferraro comments, echos the common fact that, anytime the african-american hear something that includes the word negro or black and is not in their favor, they cry racism, it's been like that for sometime, and they need to get over it. The commment by Mrs. Ferraro was not racist at all, she simply stated that he's being favored because of what he represents and that is something new, something that may seemed plausible and something that the american people are not ready for and that is, to elect a negro as President of the United States.
I didn't like that Mrs. Clinton had to apologize for Mrs. Ferraro, but I understand that Clinton had to follow protocol and the nice thing to do was to distance herself, but I wouldn't be surprised if it wasn't Mrs. Clinton that had to come up with the comment and then asking somebody with a controversial record to make headlines and wait for a reaction from both the black population and the Obama camp.
Anyways, I hope that the people of color change their mind and see Barack Obama as a weak opponent to John McCain, as compared with Hillary Clinton.
Laters.
