I think that Race will be the defining issue.

I disagree. I think race is an ancillary issue and will be exploited only by people like Jesse Jackson.

No matter what race, if a candidate is an AMERICAN above all else, then his or her ideas define the race.

Some candidates will be unable to rise to the challenge, so in that regard race will be an issue. Jesse Jackson would be such a candidate. Obama is not. He fails for lack of substance, not race.

But for the American people, I think we have gone beyond race into the realm of ideas and principles, where politics really belongs anyway.
