It has been nearly one month since I congratulated President Obama (Number 44) on his hard-fought, well deserved victory. I was absolutely sincere and I still hope that he can change the direction this nation is going. The media has made it clear that Hillary Clinton is no longer a viable candidate and that she (and all of her ignorant, uneducated supporters) should roll over and let the inevitable take place. They have reached me (hence these postings). Unfortunately, they have not yet reached Mrs. Clinton and those in charge of her campaign. The most prominent of these is Geraldine Ferraro. She had the unmitigated gall to claim that if Barack Obama were a white man, we would not be in this situation. That white supremist hate monger! I have never heard anything so offensive!
On another note, NPR reported this week that in the Mississippi primary African-American voters turned out in record numbers to give overwhelming support to Barack Obama. In fact, he EARNED a whopping 99% of the black vote (similar to his big victory in South Carolina and other primary states)! The caps signify that I understand and accept that he and his campaign have put forth an honest effort and deserve each and every one of those votes.
I'm sure that if John Edwards (the Other anti-Clinton) had lasted this long, those same African-American voters would have turned out to support him as they did in his home state of South Carolina, it just didn't work out that way.
Damn you, Geraldine!
