Many are still incensed by Pennsylvania Governor Ed Rendell’s editorial board comments in Monday’s Pittsburgh Post-Gazette…
“You've got conservative whites here, and I think there are some whites who are probably not ready to vote for an African-American candidate.”
That, along with the introduction of race as a component of the Democrat presidential nomination process, has alarmed many liberals who believed they were above all that.
I contend, that kind of thinking is in their blood. As far as Rendell’s comments, he’s more ignorant than racist.
Since “conservative whites” are… conservative, the chances they would vote for a Democrat in the first place is slim. Conservative whites will probably vote Republican, so Rendell’s is a fallacious premise. The fact that he got specific and said that some whites “are probably not ready to vote for an African-American” reflects badly on those who feel themselves the embodiment of positive race relations.
If anything, Barack Obama’s presidential candidacy will spotlight just who’s been the premiere racists in America today, just as their self-revised history proves it’s always been: the Democrat Party.

Not because of the blackness, but because I wouldn't vote for any self proscribed hyphenated American.
Where is Walter E. Williams when you need him?
It was the Democrats who voted against the African American in the Pennsylvania governor’s race that Rendell won. All of us PA Republicans voted for Lynn Swann.
When the beast taps him as VP, it will all go away.
Obama stands for nothing his hypnosis is in Rhetoric and he is being easily manipulated led by the Far Left Progressives like the Move on dot org crowd that endorsed him.
They come to him in droves he is both Preacher and Mesaiah, he inspires by using religious undertones but he is not pegged to a particular religion, Women cry openly, men misty eyed, and the youth stare open mouthed in cultish worship for the man that will be everything to all people. The man that has been sent to fix the problems of the U.S. nay the World... Because with Obama it is Change that You can Believe in ... It is We that will unify this great country, We on the side of Right and unity, We that will lay open the intolerance of those that do not agree with our unity message, we will embrace those that do not agree with us, we will change their minds and we will all come together... I have a dream that one day Liberal Democrats, Moderates and Conservative Republicans will sit down together and make laws together and solve the vast problems that the Republican Administrations have caused upon this great land.. and I will lead the way to the promised land... When that light shines on you it is a message for you to lift up your head from despair and vote for Obama, Vote for Change, Change that you can believe in...
Same rhetoric has been used by all the mass murderers of history, Hitler, Stalin,Castro...
Jim Jones has nothing on the the Kool-aid that Obama is handing out and just look at the numbers voting for him... they are drinking it in droves.
HEY!
Remember, my previous column/show was not called “African-American & Right”....
Excellent summation bump!
