Mme, I thought Clinton was responding to a question about an article posted on the AP that said Obama was weak with poorer white democratic voters. It sounded like she agreed with the premise of the article. Is it wrong to discuss this? It should be ok to honestly discuss this and find out if it is true and why. If it is true but we refuse to discuss it, we just sweep the problem under the rug until the next time it comes up. Why is anybody that brings up an issue regarding race that may be negative about Obama being regarded as racist or campaigning to the worst part of the party? What will happen if Obama gets elected and a racially sensitive issue comes up? Will we refuse to discuss it because we might look like racists? Is it ok to say that AAs won't vote for Clinton because she is white and Obama is black? It is obvious that we still have a long way to go. Neal
