Personally, I’m tired of the race issue. That’s one of the reasons I like Senator Obama.
However, since the media decided to ask Sen. Obama an asinine question regarding Clinton being the first Black President. I have to raise the issue, once again, of what Clinton did for Black people besides play the sax – which he didn’t do so great.
To start, In addition to checking out his dancing skills as Sen Obama cleverly suggested,
we need to know how many times Clinton has be a victim of Driving While Black.
As for first Mr. Clinton, prisons across the country are busting at the seams due to “Clintonomics.” Tough-on-crime Clinton did for the prison industrial complex what union busting Reaganomics did for big business and fear-mongering Bushanomics did for Haliburton.
There’s Welfare Reform, NAFTA, and a host of legislation passed that devastated poor and working class people.
Why would the Black community want to claim one of the only 2 Presidents in history that were impeached? Additionally, I find it quite offensive that a man in that position could have an affair with a youngster and expect to be respected. It's one thing to step out, but with a naive, innocent young girl? Then to lie about it. I call it NO moral values.
And then there’s Harlem. Inquiring minds want to know where Billary stands on forcing low and middle-income people out of Harlem.
A lot of people think Mr. Clinton is down with the people because he moved his office to Harlem. What good did that do the people if they can no longer live there? Where does he stand on that issue?
In the end, Clinton played the sax and visited Black churches and won the hearts of Black folks. He's so disrespectful he just shows up at church, he didn't even have the respect to stay awake at church during the King event.
Come on people, are we that dense? Or, are you sleeping with Clinton?
I understand why White people don’t want to claim Clinton, but Blacks don’t want him either. Ask the Hispanics if they’ll claim him.
