US Democratic presidential contender Barack Obama says he expects Republicans to highlight the fact that he is black as part of an effort to make voters afraid of him.

He told a Florida fundraiser that the Republicans have already shown their cards and they are likely to make race an issue.

However, Senator Obama says he is confident that the American people will realise that tactics like these are divisive and bad for the nation.

Statements like this just reaffirm his connections with those like Rev. Wright. All them white boys at the GOP are going to attack him on his color? It would be an act of POLITICAL SUICIDE!!! He's the ONLY one talking about the race issue here. So what's behind this type of statement? Vote for me or your a bigot?

I'm sure that Condi Rice and Collin Powell have a different view of the GOP.....

Have a good one!:s4:
