Geraldine Ferraro done flipped

it trips me out that a Former Vice President Canidate has the nerve to say the only reason that Barack Obama is doing as well as he is , is because he is Black? I need to do a double take and ask what in the you fill in the blank???? I mean Ferraro was a running mate with Presidential canidate Walter Mondale back in 1984 and they got tore up by Ronald Reagan and George Bush in a 49-1 beat down state by state. but usually you here when a Black Person reaches or gets to a particular area in a Job that it was because of Affirmative-Action or this or that. never have I heard this one. she got dropped from her Finiance Position with Hillary Clinton today. ask yourself just how many Black Folks in the history of the presidency have gone as far as Barack Obama?? it's one thing if Ferraro wanted to comment on Obama's expereince and his time of running as a Senator,but when you bring Race up you are gonna raise much eyebrows and rightfully so. I give Barack Obama Props for responding to this because Race is a huge issue in america period and always will be. the bottom line this always need to be discussed and believe me this won't be the last time somebody will take a cheap shot.
