The media is making a big issue about the large amount of white female support that Senator Hillary Clinton has garnered. Could Senator Clinton's rock solid support among so many white females be bolstered by their fears of a black woman becoming the First Lady of this nation? Would these women want their husbands, and their children to look up to Michelle Obama as this nation's First Lady? Would they want their sons to long to marry someone that looks like Michelle Obama? Would the elevation of Michelle Obama affect the psyches of soccer moms across America?
Would the thought of Michelle Obama eating, cooking, and waking up in The White House be so repulsive that these women would vote for anyone, but Senator Obama? Would Michelle Obama's presence in the White House cause society to redefine it's standards of beauty, style and grace? Would the status of black women be elevated in the eyes of white men? Would black women be looked upon as more than video chicks? Would little white girls start to mirror the styles of Michelle Obama? Would there be a fear that their husbands would look upon a black woman with admiration and respect? Inquiring Minds want to know!

8. Chelsea is already gearing up for her campaign 16 years from now!

10. Could Senator Obama ever really trust her? Would Hillary stretch the truth in her dealings with the new President?:
11. Would she want to be the #1 Woman so bad that she would sabotage the new President? Well you know the answer to that one don’t you?
12. She has consistently offended African Americans during this campaign!
13. She defined the working class as only whites! Do blacks work?
14. Her arrogance leaves her to believe that she is the only person that sets the metrics that the entire party should adhere to!
15. She won’t get out of a race that she can’t win! She can’t stand the thought of going down in history as the first to lose to a person of color. She could always say she demanded the VP Spot and Got It!
16. She Has Alienated Millions of Black Voters! I’d vote for a Skunk With a Stomach Ache, before I would vote for her!

24. There would be more stories on Chelsea Clinton’s doings than on Senator Obama’s lovely kids!
25. Could we trust any Democrat that would quote Karl Rove? What assistance could she bring to the ticket? She would get the credit for any victory that there may be, and Senator Obama would be blamed for any loss! We would have to hear Harold Ford consistently paying the VP compliments,while he shuns the President! Would she use the entire time she serves in an Obama Administration gearing up for her next Presidential Bid? Why did I mention the late Ron Brown? HMMMM……………….!

The Muzzling of Black Preachers is Bound to Fail!
This is Pastor Stephen F. Smith's Letter to the Editor of The Commercial Appeal! He grew so tired of reading so many hate-filled comments by some of the readers of this paper about Senator Barack Obama, and Rev. Jeremiah Wright. Many of these people who commented also wanted to give African-Americans Churches a virtual instruction manual on how and what black preachers can preach about. In response to some of these seething comments, he submitted this letter to the daily newspaper in Memphis,Tennessee!
Muzzling of preachers bound to fail
There are so many self-righteous people who are commenting in nearly every media outlet available about Rev. Jeremiah Wright, and other black preachers who speak out against injustice in our land. The assault on this type of black preacher since then has been incredible.
This whole thing started as a way to lessen what was perceived as the unstoppable presidential campaign of Barack Obama, but has gotten ridiculous since then. A black preacher better not speak out against the systems that be, or he or she will be portrayed as being divisive and un-American.
I have the following questions to pose to those who have attacked the right of black preachers to speak out against injustice. Where were your good mainstream Christian churches when slavery was an institution? Some of your churches are old enough to have been in existence then. How were your churches silent then?
Should an oppressed people have the same mindset as the majority culture? Were the original black preachers in this land wrong for praying for the emancipation of all slaves, while the majority culture’s preachers were praying earnestly for a healthy new crop of slaves?
While American pulpits and choir stands have proclaimed that God is love for hundreds of years, systemic and institutional racism has prevailed in our nation and our churches.
While the slave owners studied the Holy Writ, they brutally assaulted many of the initial African-American slaves. Were there prayer meetings before lynchings? Were there revivals before slave auctions?
Why was the mainstream church silent for so long on such a horrible practice as slavery? The black church was basically all that people of color possessed.
Should Moses have repented for having asked Pharaoh to let his people go? Let’s see, black preachers should just preach about love, and not speak out against oppression and racism?
Many in the mainstream culture are straining at the gnat of Wright’s speeches while swallowing the whole camel of condescension and racism.
