Looks like Hillary has someone she has to "renounce and reject" now. This is
pretty bad:
Last week, Ferraro told the Daily Breeze of Torrance, Calif.: "If
Obama was a white man, he would not be in this position. And if
he was a woman (of any color) he would not be in this position.
He happens to be very lucky to be who he is. And the country is
caught up in the concept."
She also faulted a "very sexist media" in the historic race between
a man bidding to be the first black president and a former first lady
seeking to become the first female president.
In the AP interview, Clinton said, "I do not agree with that," and
later added, "It's regrettable that any of our supporters — on both
sides, because we both have this experience — say things that kind
of veer off into the personal."

Well she's right. If Obama was not "Black" then would he have Oprah's support? Another Clinton surrogate said Obama is who you vote for if you want a hip Black friend. That's true too.
No, she's not right. Not everybody who supports Obama does so because he's black. Wouldn't the inverse have to be true as well, the people who are against Obama are against him because he's black
In other words, don't make the assumption that every American is racist, and either support or are against Obama simply because of that racism.
