Rep. Clyburn of S.C makes me nauseated.

[VeraAgnes]

He is on MSNBC and talking about how this is a racial election. I totally disagree as it is an election for America to move forward by a President who will lead us to safety. An election for change it is.

We don't need this as it is not necessary.

1. Of course race matters.

This is America, to deny race is delusional.

"lead us to saftey"? You don't want a President, you want Lassie.

3. You nailed it. I think the OP may still be pining for the primaries. NT

[VeraAgnes]

5. Would you please qualify that reply for me?

What say you?

[VeraAgnes]

4. I totally disagree........

I'm voting Obama for his ability to lead..............

9. It is one of the most disingenoius aspects of the campaign.

Ask the vast majority of black and brown people in America if race matters. It's a slam dunk. The whole 'race doesn't matter' spiel is fodder for the overwhelmingly white upper middle and upper class, that they might feel safe supporting this black man for president. It is a signal that there is no grievance or want to be redressed in any meaningful way. It is an assurance that the poor will remain under the bus. It is an assurance of Business AS Usual.

2. Dear Rep. Clyburn

When a gang of thugs leads you into a dangerous area, you don't ask one of the thugs to lead you back to safety.

6. For him and most Bigots it is a racial election but for the very great majority

it is an American election...They need to "Get Over It"

[VeraAgnes]

7. I'm extremely glad that he is not getting anymore air time

with his inflammatory rhetoric. We have work so damn hard, I want this to be a clean win and most of all, not wanting to irritate potential voters... Agreed, it is an American Election; that is what Obama is sharing will everyone at each opportunity.

8. I really need a quote to know if that's really what he said and what he meant

otherwise i'm not taking this with a big grain of salt. that is not how Clyburn typically speaks.
