Of course that is what he is saying. It is going to be a pity but if race comes into the equation,and it will. there will be more people not electing him or even sabotaging him because of African roots, than voting for him because of it.
Melanin-phobics like gold dredger can’t entertain the idea for a minute that Obama is a viable candidate or at least attempt to respect that many people think so or think he is the “best of the worst”. It is really sad that this racist theme is going to play out over and over again.
Rustico, well said. Very well said.

Racism absolutely exists, and it always has. It always will. Sad, but a fact of human nature. We’re tribal by nature, and regardless of color, always will be.
I’m trying to observe and stay out of the way, but a quick comment. Allan, I don’t believe racism stems from human nature. Human beings aren’t born racist, but rather “taught” it. Racism isn’t tribal, it’s about certain people believing they are better than others and those people are the lowest life forms on the planet.
