Republican Party to make race an issue: Obama - ABC News (Australian Broadcasting Corporation)

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:
Hey man I have to disagree on this. There will be some fools that will play the race card and that will happen. John Mccain wont do it and his campain team wont do it that would be suicide for him your right on that. But the 527 groups will and they will paint him as a angry black man. For your comment on hes just like those Rev Wright types. I grew up with men and women That have and still hold the anger inside them on how they were treated as black men and women in the 50sand 60s. I had to listen to my father and grandfather and hear it at church about how things where and still are. But if it wasnt for them paving the way for me and my kids Ill be going through the same thing. I not saying what Rev Wright said was right I just wish he had said it in a different way thats more uplifting than the way he said it. I love all you guys on here just be careful about how you bring Race into this. Peace and stay High.:rasta::rastasmoke:imp:
