The many faces of Barack Obama
So far, this primary season, I've learned that Barack Obama is a...

Not black enough, Muslim, black militant, radical Christian, who isn't qualified to be Commander in Chief, but would make a great VP, but actually isn't qualified to be VP.




I wonder what next week will add to the list.

is how the press shows their love and adoration?

10. If he was an opportunist -
he would have thrown Wright under the bus.
He has not.

This country is pathetic.
Most cannot deal with a black president.

4. Obama is qualified to be a Preacher..
He does that very well. Preachers are inspirational, they are not bound to producing results.

6. I forgot to mention "Lucky to be Black"
Even though "America isn't ready for a Black President"



Depending on which Clinton surrogate you ask.

9. Which MLK?
The one that right wingers like, who gave that nice "I have a dream" speech...


Or the one the right wingers hated who said all those bothersome things about U.S. warmongering and economic inequality?

11. During the Ferraro dust-up week ...
... he also went from being "a speech in 2002" to being a "concept" that was appealing to the voters.

17. unable to win a general election
(at this time) would be my addition to the list.

Is that unfair? In many respects YES. In others absolutely not.
