Just Who Is Bringing Race Into The Race?

His campaign, and the fawning Main-Stream-Media, has put just about any question about Barack Hussein Obama off-limits. In this campaign, one that is supposed to transcend race, almost every legitimate question concerning the background, history, family, friends and associations of Barry Hussein Obama is deflected by accusing the questioner of being 'racist.' Any question or topic he does not want to answer or address is deflected as racist by his Blitzkrieg press machine.

Like it or not, race is going to be a major issue in this campaign, according to Princeton University professor Melissa Harris-Lacewell, who specializes in African-American politics.

“There’s no question that race and all the permutations that it’s going to take for Obama are going to be central issues,” she predicted.

Her predictions proved true. Race has indeed been interjected in the 2008 presidential campaign, but not by John McCain. It is Barry Hussein Obama that is constantly waving the ‘bloody shirt’.

"Nobody thinks that Bush and McCain have a real answer to the challenges we face. So what they're going to try to do is make you scared of me," Obama explained. "You know, he's not patriotic enough, he's got a funny name, you know, he doesn't look like all those other presidents on the dollar bills."

We know this is just a prefabricated attack, because last month in Florida, Obama brandished a similar, less opaque, comment, saying, "They're going to try to make you afraid. They're going to try to make you afraid of me. He's young and inexperienced and he's got a funny name. And did I mention he's black?"

It's true; Obama is black. And the person who keeps mentioning that Barack Obama is black most often is Barack Obama.

The fawning Media is constantly bringing race into the mix. Every time they describe him (mostly in glowing and hushed reverence) as potentially the first African-American president, they are reminding the world that he is black.

Here is the Obama campaign’s hypocritical template: Anybody, and I mean anybody, that dares question the qualifications of “The One” will be immediately and viciously branded a racist. Be it disagreement on policy or pointing out his inexperience, lack of judgment or obnoxious hubris; a racist you will be!

How’s that for “Change You Can Believe In?”
