    When are people going to get it…man is not about black and white…had he mention Dr. King then you’re isolating race!!…This is about uniting…he’s not running from history. Had he had made that is focal point…then it’s not a democratic speech is a preaching speech about blacks progressing.

    That’s why blacks do not progress…

    I love and embrassed Cornell West…I understand what his point is, but what about the MLK tribute during the evening ceremony?

    It’s almost like they are suggesting, since Obama didn’t name drop then the effectiveness of his speech has been limited.

    come on… no matter what Barack does there will be some questioning of his blackness.

    When are people going to get it…is not about black and white…had Hillary been nominated as the democratic candidate , could you envision she talking about woman rights to vote as her focal point? All men in there would of felt so out of place…you can’t do that….when you’re campaigning…for voters. You cannot isolate your self based on gender and race those are 2 very sensitive things when you want to acquire votes accross the nation.

    SMHDH with these 2 bafoons.

    these ppl need to get over why he didnt mention this and that…..when u finally got a black men running for president and he needs all the votes he can get you dont bash at him on television for not mentioning some irrelevant facts especially when the ones that are bashing at him are balck

  9. Tamika Says:

    Those folks are HATERS. The campaign is not about black folks & honoring the black race ONLY. Ridiculous.

  10. Mo Says:

    Is no surprise that Dr King served as inspiration to all of us…again..this is not about black and white…it just so happens that a black or mixed candidate is nominated for on the democratic side…sometimes is a shame that us blacks think we need to celebrate all the time and rub it in the faces of the whites…Dr King did a phenomenal job…no one compares to him…he changed America..but at the same time …he’s movement is not Obama’s movement…this is totally different. yes we’re proud to see him succeed..but please stop with the fucking black and white card.

    There is a reason why he received most votes not because he’s black or white..because he’s doing a beautiful job.campaigning……had it been that lady or Cornell West they would of looked like 2 bafoons…and make it about blacks in America blah blah blah …complaining..is not about blacks in America is about America!!!!!!!!!!!!

  11. hype kills Says:

    at least criticise his policies he outlined, not the fact that he didnt mention MLK more than once.

  12. West Philly Says:

    Yeah obama sure did miss out on saying those things but I think he wanted to say them but didnt for a reason! Wai tuntil he gets in office than he will start talking about that stuff.
