With the resurrection of Hillary Clinton on March 4th Primaries where she won Texas, Ohio and our Rhody (Rhode Island), the mess up of “Super” Delegates, and Florida and Michigan promising to deliver the 2001 dejà-vous again, the democratic primary election is gaining extra excitement. Keeping this scenario in mind, who do you think will win the nomination? Obama or Hillary?

I'm disappointed on the way Hillary Clinton is using race to paint a bad image of Obama. Her campaign has repeatedly try to instigate racial divide when they are about to go into States with large population of blue color whites.
The comments made by Geraldine Ferrara in the last couple days is an example of this. She stated that the only reason Obama is on the race is because he's black. Is she trying to say that black man is a privileged group in America? What a irony!
The only reason she did it is to scare white people from voting in a Black man. And she can deny all she want, but this is a racist behavior. And for Hillary to not come out and strongly repudiate that comment, makes her an accomplice on that. Very surprised to see that behavior from the wife of the 1st "Black President." Shocked

AFTER THE CHARADE OF REV.WRIGHT AND THE BUFFOONERY CIRCUS EXHIBITION,THEATRICAL FRENZIED ACTIVITY ON NATION WIDE TV.

OBAMA CAN FORGET IT,HE MIGHT AS WELL PACK IT IN AND GO HOME.

SUCH A WONDERFUL MAN WITH GREAT IDEAS FOR THE PEOPLE OF THE USA.
THERE IS A TIME AND PLACE FOR EVERYTHING; REV WRIGHT CHOSE
THE WRONG TIME AND PLACE.

I AM SORRY TO SAY IT REMINDS ME OF THE CRAB IN THE BARREL SYNDROME.
A DEEP SIGH.

Tough disheartened by this, I agree with you. That Damn Reverend Wright, selfishly looking for his own moment of fame on the national media, has killed Obama's chance to be elected to the presidency of the USA. He foolishly gave to the media what they needed to fire up white people's fear of a black man.

It's just sad that it's a black man who shot down the only chance another black man had to become the president of the U.S. With that, he has also shot down America's unique opportunity to have an excellent president that could really bring this country together and give a new and better direction to this country. Sad

How so?!
He is African American = black ethnicity. Forget how light his skin color look.
When you talk about race you have to pay attention to the ethnicity. if you stick to the skin color, you can be misleaded specially here in the US where there is so much race mixing.

CV2K YOU ARE SO RIGHT.

WELL NOW WE WILL WATCH THE WAY POLITICS IS PLAYED IN THE USA.

SOME FOLK ARE SAYING THAT REV.WRIGHT DISPLAY MAY HAVE HELPED
OBAMA,ONE NEVER KNOWS WHAT GOES ON BEHIND CLOSE DOORS Rolling Eyes

WE WILL KNOW IN ABOUT 2 MONTHS FROM NOW HOW THE COOKIE CRUMBLES. Wink

MANY OF US THINK THAT OBAMA IS THE RIGHT CHOICE FOR THE FUTURE
AND FOR THE CHANGE AND AGAIN JUST PERHAPS,YES WE CAN.

OTHER'S WILL SAY OBAMA DOES NOT HAVE THE EXPERIENCE,BUT ON THE OTHER HAND LOOK AT THE TROUBLE WE ARE IN;FROM THOSE WHO SAY THAT THEY HAD EXPERIENCE. WAR,RECESSION AND FOR SOME FOLK A DEPRESSION,IT ALL DEPENDS IN WHAT CLASS YOUR IN.

SOME LIKE TO SAY IT IS THE LEFT VERSUS THE RIGHT OR ULTRA CONSERVATIVES VERSUS THE LIBERALS OR SOME WILL SAY THAT IT IS
CAPITALISM VERSUS SOCIALISM. THE END RESULTS OF COURSE IS ABOUT THE ECONOMICS WHO WILL CONTROL IT AND HOW THE DISTRIBUTION WILL BE MADE. WILL IT SERVE THE HAVES AND NOT THE HAVE NOTS ;OR WILL THEY SAY, WE WILL TAKE CARE OF THE SUPER RICH ENTREPRENEUR AND THE TRICKLE DOWN AFFECT TO THE POOR.

SOME PLACE IN THAT PIPE LINE IT NEVER GETS TO THE POOR WORKING CLASS WHO ARE THE BACK BONE OF THE COUNTRY.

IN OTHER WORDS; IT HAS BEEN SAID WAITING FOR THE CRUMBS TO FALL FROM THE RICH MANS TABLE.. WHO HAS THE POWER TO MAKE THE CHANGE.
I REMEMBER MALCOLM X SAYING JUST BECAUSE YOU SIT AT THE RICH MANS TABLE DOES NOT MAKE YOU A DINER UNLESS YOU ALSO HAVE A PLATE OF FOOD IN FRONT OF YOU. THEY HAVE THE PLATE OF FOOD AND THEY ARE EATING BUT YOU DON'T HAVE A PLATE AND YOU DON'T PARTICIPATE IN EATING THEREFORE THAT DOES NOT MAKE YOU A DINER. (PARAPHASING OF COURSE)

ALL THE PROMISE THAT ARE BEING MADE ,STOP THE WAR,BRING OUR COURAGEOUS TROOPS HOME, TAKE BETTER CARE OF OUR VETERANS,UNIVERSAL HEALTH CARE FOR ALL THE PEOPLE,STOP OUT-SOURCE JOBS TO OTHER COUNTRIES,BRINGING OUR INDUSTRIES BACK TO THE USA TO CREATE JOBS FOR AMERICANS,BETTER EDUCATIONAL SYSTEM FOR ALL THE CHILDREN THAT NO CHILD IS LEFT BEHIND. SOARING GAS PRICES AND FOOD PRICES,LOST OF HOMES.
INSANITY RAGING LIKE A WILD FIRE. EVERY DAY YOU SEE IT ON TV.

HOW DO WE GET ALL THIS DONE? TO MAKE FOR A BETTER AND A HEALTHY NATION.

WE ARE SPENDING BILLIONS,TRILLIONS,QUADRILLION(MILITARY INDUSTRIAL COMPLEX)
$$$$$$$ TO MAINTAIN DEMOCRACY OVERSEAS AND IT LOOKS LIKE EVERYDAY WE ARE LOOSING OURS. THE SO-CALLED RICHES COUNTRY IN THE WORLD AND WE HAVE PEOPLE GOING HUNGRY AND LOOKING IN GABBAGE PAILS FOR FOOD TO EAT. DRUGS,BOMBING AND KILLING AND DRIVE BY SHOOTING IN OUR SCHOOL AND ON THE STREETS. WHAT IS GOING ON IN OUR AMERICA THE BEAUTIFUL.

FOR THOSE WHO ARE DOING GOOD COUNT YOUR BLESSINGS.
HOW LONG WILL IT TAKE BEFORE IT AFFECTS YOU?

THERE IS IN THE BOOK OF JEREMIAH CHAPTER 8 VERSE 22.
"IS THERE NO BALM IN GILEAD?
"IS THERE NO PHYSICIAN THERE?"
"WHY THEN IS THERE NO HEALING FOR THE WOUND
OF MY PEOPLE?"

WHO HAS THE POWER TO CHANGE THE O.M.B.
