Race Card

I have a question for all of the political pundits and analysts out there. Why is it that if Barack Obama appeals to people of color it is a matter of him playing the race card? I am having a hard time with this one. The way that i see it is this Barack by name and origin is a Black man. So if he appeals to Blacks or people of color why is that an issue? I read one article that said his use of race could damage his campaign standing and give the edge to Hillary? WTF!

So am I to understand that in the 38 years that I have been around to witness this so called democratic process that no one has ever appealed to their Ethnic, Social or Economic groups before? But because he is a black man and he is appealing to his people he is using the race card. The way that I see it and it is a fact that Hillary is receiving a lot of support from women in this country, so am I to suggest that she is playing the gender card?

Well it is my opinion that we tend to talk to those people that we have the most in common with. If I was running for an office I think the bulk of my message would be geared towards the needs and demands of Black people, not because I am a racists but merely because those would be the issues that i could speak on from the heart. I grew up as a black child and have lived my entire life as a Black man. So for me to feel comfortable and empowered to speak on those issues is not a short coming but merely me finding a point that i am comfortable with and sticking with it. This country no matter how hard they try to deny it still has an identity problem. That problem stems from the fact that blacks and whites still have not settled their issues. Instead they tend to ignore them and sweep them under the rug as if they do not exist. Until the time comes where we sit down and discuss this it will remain a seething and oozing sore that flares up from time to time.

Well I guess I have said all of this in order to make one tiny point. White people please understand that no matter how well spoken and light Barack may be he is still a man of color so please allow him to be that. Should you see him discussing an issue that affects blacks in this country, please do not take that as him turning his back on you but merely giving a voice to the mute of this country.

oh yeah on last note Charlie Rangel that ignorant assed House Nigger. When are we going to stop being the guard dogs and attacking blacks around us in order to keep our white masters from being perceived as racists? Black Loyalty is something that I think we need to focus on. Black folk please stop jumping in front of the cameras and mics in order to make yourself look good to whites by beating down other blacks. I swear DC is full of BAN's and FAN's for that matter.
