3. Because of Obama, there will be no female president for another 40 years
Easy to flip this nonsense on its ear to show that both extremes are absurd.

We're showing the world that yes, we too can post ridiculous, idiotic flamebait just as bad as the worst of the Clinton supporters!

8. I'm not done fighting yet, and neither is Obama.
Any would-be black president is going to have to suffer these marginalization attempts. I never would have expected it to come from within the Democratic party, but whatever.

Obama can and will overcome this.

Don't buy into what the media is telling you. There are plenty of white voters who will stick with Barack as long as he gets back to his message.

Keep the faith.

If he is not elected it will be the doom of us all.

26. The OP is a member of the DLC?
Because those are the loser mentalities that have made Democrats unelectable.

Nobody wants a Republican lite. Nobody with an ounce of sanity wants 32 years of Bush-Clinton.

27. This is a below the belt blow. Learn to count:
Whites 74% Pop.
Blacks 12.4%
Hispanics 14.2%

Let us be honest someone(s) in the Establishment and among Obamas
Advisors simply do not understand the rank and file Americans
There were wrong presumptions fromthe get go. Hilary had
nothing to do with this.

the country?

33. What specifically has Hillary's campaign done, ...
that would cause the political and social effect you are suggesting?

If the little bit of skirmishing that has gone on for two weeks has caused that dramatic an effect to Obama and Black American politics, or the inter racial multi class politics of hope and change; just imagine what rovian republican attack dog politics, will do in the general. If the Obama dream has rested on such a fragile foundation, it is better to crumble now rather than later.

34. talk about your pathetic hit and run posts....
want to come back and offer anything to support your claim, other than your apparent belief that out of hundreds of millions of Americans over the next four decades, not a single African American leader will emerge with the "right stuff" to become president.

Wow..that's just wow...

36. Don't need a black, white, or woman president. Thank you.
We just need a progressive president who will place the will and needs of the people first.

That is why I am voting for John Edwards and his broad and bold leadership.
