in response to reader comment: Clintons have strong ties to Jewish community. Obhama has strong ties to Louis Ferakam

Submitted by PATRICK MCDONALD, Feb 18, 2008 23:22

People say Bill Clinton was the closest thing to a black President we have had.. I truly hope not.. It is a fact that more blacks were incarcerated during his glorious 8 years than any other President before him.. Do we need a change.. YES.. A CHANGE THAT MAKES YOUR COLOR AND OR RACE A NON ISSUE !!! VOTE FOR OBAMA IN 08 !!!!!! NOT BECAUSE HE IS A BLACK MAN , BUT BECAUSE HE IS THE RIGHT MAN !!!
