Yes, Obamas race has definitely helped him and it's also been used against him quite effectively.


Well, in most areas black voters tend to side with the Democrats anyway. I'd think that many would vote for him regardless just to elect the first black president and tear down another barrier.

The same could be said for women as well. I'm sure you'd get independent and some conservative women voting for Hillary for the same reason.



I don't see how you can say there's zero evidence when it comes to this Administration. This doesn't mean Holder was wise to throw down the race card in this instance. There are valid questions to be asked of the Justice department, and when issues get muddled it can be very hard to resolve.

"Republicans in Congress have absolutely been complicit and some even active in the racism against the President."

Please name some. You said Republicans with an "s" at the end, so you're accusing more than one. Who are they, and what's the evidence?

Spence, do you know who Robert Byrd was? Democrat Senator from WV, died last year. He was a Senator for FORTY YEARS, he was president pro tempe of the senate, which made him THIRD in line for succession to the presidency. Mr Byrd was a huge figure in the Democratic party. And he was an admitted Klansman who used the "n" word in a TV interview shortly before his death. He (along with Senator Al Gore senior) fillibustered against the Civil Rights Act of 1964. Democrats never accused HIM of being a racist, but I'm supposed to be afraid of Mitt Romney?

You people have no shame. None.

And you still haven't told us how you would solve that pesky little $70 trillion shortfall we're facing. No ideas? No thoughts? Nothing?
