Many of the black people still carry a chip on their shoulder. Maybe it's inferiority complex. Obama does represent the intellectual, educated, thoughtful, objective, and ideal politician. You're simply punishing him for not having the "herd" mentality that some of you have. Just because he's black should not be sufficient reason for advertising in black publications.

As long as the majoriity in the Black media don't call Obama or his campaign to task over the lack of access by many Black media outlets, Black people or the MSM in general won't know this. Black people will continue to be fed the line that if he isn't the nominee, there will be riots in the streets or Black people will not vote in November. I'm sure this story will never be posted on Huffpost or DKos or any other main blog with tons of traffic. Interesting and disturbing article but also not surprising.

So, the AA media moguls should not be upset that Hillary decided to seek support from other groups, particularly women and lunch bucket Dems. But it's not too late for AA's to show Obama that they will not be taken for granted by him while at the same time, they can indicate to Hillary that they really don't believe she and Bill are racists. How? Very simple. In next week's N.C. primary, they can send a loud and clear message to both candidates by voting for Hillary in large numbers. Hillary has a big heart and a lot of class, so I'm sure she will welcome AA's back into the fold and begin paying attention to them again, just as Bill always paid attention to them when he was in the White House. The AA community seems to have forgotten that not for nothing was he dubbed "the first Black president." Obama has used the AA community purely for his own political purposes and cannot be trusted. While words do matter, actions speak even louder. If Obama becomes the Democratic nominee, he will lose in November to John McCain. As a Hillary supporter, I will never vote for Obama. If the AA community wants to once again have a friend in the White House, that person is Hillary!

Barack Obama has no real chance of winning the national election in November at this time. His crushing defeat in Pennsylvania makes that fact crystal clear. His best, and only real chance of winning in November is on a ticket with Hillary Clinton as her VP. Hillary Clinton seemed almost somber at her victory speech. As if part of her was hoping Obama could have defeated her. And proved he had some chance of winning against the republican attack machine, and their unlimited money, and resources. In all honesty. I felt some of that too. But it is absolutely essential that the democrats take back the Whitehouse in November. America, and the American people are in a very desperate condition now. And the whole World has been doing all that they can to help keep us propped up. Hillary Clinton say’s that the heat, and decisions in the Whitehouse are much tougher than the ones on the campaign trail. But I think Mr. Obama faces a test of whether he has what it takes to be a commander and chief by facing the difficult facts, and the truth before him. And by doing what is best for the American people by dropping out of the race, and offering his whole hearted assistance to Hillary Clinton to help her take back the Whitehouse for the American people, and the World. Mr. Obama is a great speaker. And I am confident he can explain to the American people the need, and wisdom of such a personal sacrifice for them. It should be clear to everyone by now that Hillary Clinton is fighting her heart out for the American people. She has known for a long time that Mr. Obama can not win this November. You have to remember that the Clinton’s have won the Whitehouse twice before. They know what it takes. If Mr. Obama fails his test of commander and chief we can only hope that Hillary Clinton can continue her heroic fight for the American people. And that she prevails. She will need all the continual support and help we can give her. She may fight like a superhuman. But she is only human. Sen. Hillary Clinton: “You know, more people have now voted for me than have voted for my opponent. In fact, I now have more votes than anybody has ever had in a primary contest for a nomination. And it’s also clear that we’ve got nine more important contests to go.” Sincerely Jacksmith... Working Class :-) IT’S TIME AMERICA:
