Vying for the Black Vote

what i want black people to know that bill clinton is saying that we as blacks are stupid, when his said barack run for whitehouse is a bunch of balony.I want black people to teach the clinton's a lesson.

LEt me get this straight. Saudi Arabia owns thirteen per cent of our U.S. economy. The Jews recieve Billions of dollars in subsidies from the UNITED STATES. IS IT NOT IN BOTH FACTIONS INTEREST TO KEEp THE SATUS QUO. BOTH THE ARABS AND THE ISRAELI's ARE ENJOYING OUR TAX MONEY. THEY MADE US CUT WELFARE BUT K Ept their subsidies intact. THIS IS WHY LIBERMAN AND McCain CAN NEVER WIN. THE ESTABLISHMENT HAS HAD IT. EVERY SECRET SOCIETY IS BEHIND ROMMNEY. Michigan is desperate and everyone knows that ROMMNEY bought his victory.

If Mr. Sellers was organizing sit-ins in 1960, he had to have been around 15 years old. Today everyone c laims they were on the civil rights movements even though they are just not old enough to even understand what it was all about. Someone correct me if I'm wrong on this age thing.

If Sellers organized sit-ins in 1960 he had to have been around 15 years old. No offense. Just what I figure timing was in that period. it seems everyone was on the band wagon organizing sit-ins. As I recall history of this period, they started around mid-60's. Someone correct me if I'm wrong.

First off, Hillary was correct (one of the few times) with her comment that it took a legislator (Johnson) to pass Civil Rights legislation. Citizens, no matter how vocal or prominant, cannot do that. The interviewee, however, slipped into a racists statement himself, by only noting the Blacks who were active in the Civil Rights Movement, and neglecting the countless Whites who risked their lives in the process (and actually passed the legislation (Republicans) that Johnson signed.

As far as race and gender being injected into the process, both candidates and the media have played off of this since Clinton and Obama first announced. In fact, both candidates are betting on their race and gender for votes. Billary is counting on votes BECAUSE she is supposedly a female, and Obama is counting on votes BECAUSE he is black (thought the subject of wether he is 'black enough' is still being debated within the black community).

However, isn't it really sexist to vote for Hillary BECAUSE she wears a skirt, as well as racists to vote for Obama BECAUSE he is black? In both instances, you are NOT voting for the other candidates because they are neither, which is discrimination by any other name...

What Hillary said is right. The civil rights movement has given tremendous credit to MLK but Lyndon Johnson was never spoken in the same breadth eventhough in my humble opinion his contribution is no less than MLK. Hillary's comments and intention, I believe, is not to belittle MLK, undeniably a great man, but to give proper due to Johnson, an unsung civil rights hero who was diminished by the problem of his time and circumstances. The whole episode seems to be distorted and manupilated by those with with vested interested. If we read between the line, the presence of an unseen hand is obvious.

T the truth.. When someone resorts to name calling is only to make oneself feel better. The names one uses to insult others is a true refelction of one self............

To the truth... Read gt yourself a history book...
Sweet, charming, oh sooooooo good is a silly girls drool..These qualities are nice, but will be disasterous if this is all you can say..For we need a strong experienced candidate.. and that is Hillay Clinton..

Clintons are sooooo bad and Obama soooo good and sweet, and charming. You call this crap journalism. Write a damn fair article and let people decide who they want to vote for. Don't try to convince people by injecting your own twisted ideas ande opinions in this article. Did newsweek officially endorsed Obama? might as well. When Hllary wins, please don't endorse her, because we sure as hell don't want you scums on our side.

Does the people at newsweek have an Obama Shrine that they worship everyday. What kind of bulls#it is this article. Talk about being one sided. Obama is the new Saint Obama and Hillary the Devil? what kind of of bulls#it article is this. You folks from Newsweek week must pray to Obama and read chapters from his bible daily. This article is so onsided to the point that I don't believe you people are ethical journalist. If you want Obama to be president so bad maybe newsweek staff and Obama should go buy an island so you one sided bias journalist can elect him president. Newsweek is a disgusting magazine and I will now cancel my subscription. Newsweek is disgusting and blatantly biased.

No! everone knows the Clintons are and have always been civil rights activist. Bill employed more blacks
than any other President, He was considred the Black President..So NO!!!!
This was Obama's campaign and the twisted Media...

Senator Hillary Clinton has said "I don't think either Senator Obama or myself wants to see the injection of race or gender into this campaign." Senator Hillary Clinton has done a good job of doing both herself. The Clintons' are good campaigners and they know just how far to use both issues to their advantage. Senator Hillary, in my opinion, used her feminine skills effectively to win the NH primariy. Again, Senatory Hillary, in my opinion, is cautiously using race to win the vote in Nevada. Hillary Clinton is not weak, Hillary Clinton is a bright talented politician who will use whatever technique she believes is necessary to win. Will it work? I don't know, but I support Senator Obama, not because he is a man but because I do believe America needs a fresh face (change). Hillary is status quo, Hillary will not produce change and like our current president will never be wrong.

Hillary Clinton should not be seen in any negative way, All her life and Bill's life they have been standing
and fighting for civil rights. Bill was considered the Black President.He gave the most jobs to blacks when he was president. He had his office in Harlem, therefore her and his comments have been twisted in order to bring the race card by the Obama campaign...The NAACP has endorced Hillary and I don;t think they would do this if they felt the Clinton were racist. These accusations does not hur Hillary like it hurts the people of America. I think the media is also at blame only thinking of their ratings and not caring for the crucial consequenses that may come of this if we continue with this. Martin Luther King would roll in his grave if he thoughtthat at this day and age that we have come so far, we retrack with such cruelty and twisted mis represention. The important now is to really look at the candidates and understand who has the experience to put our nation in their hands. We are facing crucial time, which requier experience. WE have to forget about all negative and really look who can handel the challenges ahead that will and is facing our country.
