Reply #60: So is this Hillary's new strategy? [View All]

Crybabyism?

You realize that Obama is at a disadvantage too being a black man in America. Yet he has overcome stereotypes and prejudices and turned himself into a successful candidate that ALL people seem to be rallying behind.

He has also shown himself to have a higher quality of character than Hillary Clinton and her supporters. When for a year or more, when Hillary led in pretty much every poll and no one gave him a chance, he never used the color of his skin as an excuse to explain the lack of traction. He just kept working, he stayed on message and he trusted the members of our party to do the right thing and would stand by them regardless of their decision.

That's why he is where he is now. He never had a sense of entitlement about it. He never said, "it's my turn." He never mentioned how blacks have been the most loyal Democratic voting bloc for 70+ years and it was time they rewarded a black man. In fact, he never played the race card at all. The only people who have played the race card and the sex card are the Clintons. He only asked to be judged on the merits of his abilities and accomplishments. Having demonstrated those qualities to the American people, he has won them over.

It's called Democracy. Stop crying because it didn't work out for you.
