I caught Laura Ingraham just now reacting the same way the left is, but you both seem to ignore the subject of discussion was candidates for president. And Biden is right. Obama IS the first mainstream African-American candidate for President who is articulate and bright and clean (meaning no real skeletons in the closet) and a nice-looking guy.

Is there something wrong with pointing that out because Obama is black? Or does someone here believe another African American presidential candidate fits that description? Jesse Jackson? Alan Keyes? C'mon! Mainstream America would have NEVER voted for those two but they would for Obama, IMO.

Obama is the FIRST electable black candidate for President.
