I only wish that Obama's skin color was white for a few weeks so people can get over the race and actually ask Obama what change he plans on bringing to The United States Presidential Office besides his skin color. The media loves to throw all of these racist issues out there instead of asking the candidates questions like ... umm... our economy perhaps?

You mean, about it being true?

Face it, calling him a dimwit is an insult to dimwits everywhere.

It's simply true; if he were white, and up there spouting off empty statements about change, he'd be nowhere. Because he's half-black, he comes off as a "rock-star," for change, and the fools in this country just ride the bandwagon...
Reminds me of the idiots you see on TV right before Christmas. They'll do anything just to own one of the season's hottest toys...it's that mentality that's going to screw us. I talked to a girl the other day that was going to vote for him merely because he was a good speaker....holy crap! Well, 25min later, after hearing all about what he's done and hasn't done, she's changed her mind...maybe...Ferraro's right, if he weren't black the media wouldn't be having this love affair with him, and he'd be a nobody.

Not to keep this firestorm going, but what she said is true.

If Obama were white, Hillary would be the only contender for the democrats. Everybody is screaming about, but I haven't really heard that many people deny it, makes one wonder.

I like Obama, but I am not going to vote for him and not because he is black, his color makes no difference. His lack of experience does.

I am a democrat but if Obama gets the nomination then I will be voting for McCain

BornToBeWild.. Oh no you didn't!! Thats a terrible thing to call that Red Bone!! (snicker...) Now I would have loved for Sharpton or someone to have called him that!

First, Margaret Chase Smith, ME was the first woman nominated to run for President. Second was Shirley Chisom who actually ran for President in the early 70's. Hillary is the first really objectionable female person to run for President.
I really think that Ferraro, like Bill, was speaking for Hillary with her consent. She just likes to have others do her dirty work, so she looks above it, except for those times when she just can't hold her nastiness in.
As far as Obama being an idiot, you have to admit that the presedent has been set. Hillary also claims that Obama is not really in the politically IN crowd like she is. Now that can be a plus when all the others are into protecting their own personal interests to the even when it means sinking the ship.

pegasuswing.........you sure the wing didn't blow your peguses out of contents...........eh....

lol sabaii.....now that's funny

I don't care for GF but what she said is true and the fact is “truth” is considered an absolute defense against defamation of character , Obama is in fact unqualified for this or any public office IF not for the color of his skin...even more importantly if he where actually a white man his actions and statements (from the pulpit of his church) could possibly get him landed in jail, but would definitely brand him what he is a “Racist” and drum him out of politics for good.

What Ferraro said was not politically correct but was actually correct.People are so darn afraid to say anything about "teflon" Obama, it's nuts. If someone says something about him, they're labeled a racist. He is just as bad as Jackson or Sharpton they use the race card like a shield. The media play up to Obama, Jackson and Sharpton like brownnosing lap dogs. And by the way Fox news is no different than the other media brownnosers.

oh sabaii I truly hope you are looking outside the box............WELCOME.......now we have lots of work to do and convincing others......

I wouldn't be surprised at all to learn that the Clinton campaign asked Ferraro to make the comments in question. "Billary" has repeatedly stooped to the same mean-spirited dirty tricks that were a hallmark of Slick Willy's career. Even many who support her policies agree that Clinton's approach represents all that is wrong with politics today.

Personally, I agree with the professor who said she's a monster, and would rather do without a president than have her in office.

Incidentally, it's interesting to consider whether Clinton would be where SHE is if she weren't a woman (ironically, the same was true of Ferraro). Despite her claims, she has less experience in elective office than the relatively inexperienced Obama (look it up if you don't believe me). Her 10 years as a corporate attorney for WalMart, one of the most cut-throat businesses in the world, and her 8 years as first lady don't count as "hands on" political experience.

I would be willing to give her credit for her badly bungled excursion into universal health care during Slick Willy's first administration. Not sure she'd care to discuss though :-)

Let me just say that...Obama is a RICH WHITE man...he was raised by his mother and grandmother. But I think it is convenient to use his Kenyan side to run for the presidency...oh, lets not for get his Indonesian side.
