And people like Colin Powell, who should know the make-up of leadership more than most.

I've often said "white guilt" played a big part in why so many were willing to look the other way and pretend they didn't see the many gaps and missing experience elements in Obama to prepare him for the Presidency. I conclude many who voted for him felt the deep urge to assuage an event in their past of racial wrong-doing and this was one way of exercising their demeans. Their racism engendered them to vote for someone soley based on the color of their skin and nothing else. The fact is, Obama would never have been elected President had he been a caucasion. Hillary Clinton received more Democrat party votes in the primary and Obama's slim resume and strange alliance with radicals in his background, would have exposed the most liberal Senator as a radical.

When enough Americans truly develop the ability to judge based on the content of someones character and not the color of their skin, we will have achieved Martin Luther's vision.

Obama's election didn't come close. In fact, it was a step backwards.
