Geraldine Ferarro: Obama is "lucky" he's a black man

dailybreeze.com — More class from the Hillary camp: "If Obama was a white man, he would not be in this position," she continued. "And if he was a woman (of any color) he would not be in this position. He happens to be very lucky to be who he is. And the country is caught up in the concept."

    ""If Obama was a white man, he would not be in this position," she continued. "And if he was a woman (of any color) he would not be in this position. He happens to be very lucky to be who he is. And the country is caught up in the concept." Ferraro does not buy the notion of Obama as the great reconciler. "I was reading an article that said young Republicans are out there campaigning for Obama because they believe he's going to be able to put an end to partisanship," Ferraro said, clearly annoyed. "Dear God! Anyone that has worked in the Congress knows that for over 200 years this country has had partisanship - that's the way our country is.""

    Now, is this a faux pas of lesser importance than Sam's 'M' story of last week. Double standards again, Bill & Hill? Shame on you.
  • Jamilee, on 03/10/2008, -0/+2I can't believe these people. How can anyone take these boils on the butt of humanity seriously.
    OBAMA 08
  • spankBoogie, on 03/11/2008, -0/+2Yeah, Martin Luther King Jr. was pretty lucky too. There's no way they would have let him make that "I Have A Dream" speech if he was white.

    Do you think Hillary will denounce and reject this?
  • ARC72, on 03/11/2008, -0/+1Samantha Power is legitimately one of the smartest political thinkers of this generation; all Ferraro knows how to do is lose elections. If Sam P. had to quit for "monster", then this fool should be forced out of the country.
  • gypsi, on 03/11/2008, -0/+2she's basically looking at hillary to succeed where she failed. obama is a symbol opposing that, so naturally he's just not worthy in her view. i never though i'd see the day that any black man was called lucky for being so.
  • ARC72, on 03/11/2008, -0/+1I'm not black myself, but isn't this just about the most offensive thing you could possibly say to an African American? I'm surprised that Sharpton and JJ seem to be letting it slide.
  • valimar77, on 03/11/2008, -0/+1Ferraro is continuing Bill Clinton's attempts to race bait and divide voters. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qqd2dfjl2pw&eurl=ht ...
    It's a trap.
