2. We were always going to have to deal with the race issue
Better to get it out in the open now rather than the general.

I think Obama's choice of a vp candidate will be super important.

7. yes, Hillary has embraced and won the Jim Crow voters
When I heard that, I hurled my book bag across the room, looked pensively at my speech notes, and tried to look pained as I said "nothing will ever be right again!"
