Those words were spoken by a black man on WHK Radio news, 1420am, Cleveland, Ohio, on the morning following Obama's election. And, in those words one finds the reason many voted for Obama.
The quest for the White House by the Democratic National Committee was crafted to look as either-or. In other words, blacks voted for another black. Many "white" Americans voted for Obama to show that they are not prejudiced.
I don't know about others, but this has never been my case. I will vote for who I believe to be the right man or woman....I just haven't seen that person emerge yet.
In all this, I believe liberal Americans voted for Obama for the wrong reasons and some, witness the radio interview referenced above, only voted for him because he's black. We'll now give it four years to see what damage is done.
