I don't have an answer. I don't understand the animosity, myself. But let's get real, it doesn't have anything to do with white guilt or slavery. Mostly it's kids trying to look cool or impress their friends by trash talking. Just a bunch of people mouthing off for the fun of it. No harm in it I suppose. It's not like people are really going to act this way when it comes time to vote in November.

At least I hope not!

Hillary is the answer? I'm not entirely sure she understands the question.

Hillary stands the best chance of beating the Repubs in November. Middle class whites are not going to support a liberal with a socialist idealogy who was raised by a Communist mother. They will remember that their fathers and grandfathers fought against and swore to protect this great land from the insideous and Godless Communists. Their fathers fought Communism in Vietnam and Korea. They will remember that and when someone tells them Obama's mother was a Communist they will be alarmed and upset. They will be upset that they have been duped and fooled by this man with a big smile and who makes nice speeches. Then they will vote against him. Not for the other guy but against the Communist.

Ditto that LOL. I think the pointy white cone hat wearers will come out of their shantys in the middle states and vote with fervor for McCain.

I will nonetheless vote for Obama because I can't wear such a burden on my conscience to vote in another repub after Bush.

That's what you think.

Let's wait until November. But in the meantime say bye-bye to Hillary, because she's going nowhere.

Sorry!

Obama can only win if he takes Hillary with him, otherwise, he will be in trouble. He has some serious baggage and the McCain people will target all his weaknesses... enough to make the middle working class white turn and run. Besides Obama needs Hillary to help him fight off those nasty republicans. Think about this... what if Obama has some other skeletons in the closet? If Hillary were VP he might still have a chance to win. If he takes Hillary with him then I will have to say that he is a very smart politician.

Give it up. Hillary is F I N I S H E D. Why is this so hard to understand?
You are wrong on the Hillary comment so be careful. I know you are responding to a comment you didn't like but I am none of the demographics you listed as viewing Hillary favorably. Besides, even if I was one of these choices aren't you being quite judgmental of other people?

I believe Hillary should step down as soon as possible and I plan to back Obama but I will continue to speak positively about her as I know she is a better person than so many want to say.

I agree 100%. They will be very powerful together and I think they will compliment each other.
