But skin tone is not a political issue, yet he continues to bring it up as if his competitor is using it as a campaign issue ... which he hasn't. It is quite tactful, yet it is also quite obvious. There would be absolutely no reason for Obama to mention it unless the McCain camp brings it up ... which they won't. It's the classic victim card, and it is very disturbing. He is stoking racial tension, or you can use pride, throughout his campaign in order to win. If he were white ("like any other American"), he wouldn't have even made it through the primaries, let alone be the nominee. And I just see his ploy boiling to the surface the closer we get to election day and, god forgive us, if Obama loses in November, I can easily see a repeat of 1992 LA in many parts of the country.
MODU please realize that your annoyance is caused by your racism.
Grow up. I've warned you many times in the past on this. So please, just grow up.

MODU, it is not 'playing a card', or making a pretense of victimhood, nor is it fomenting of resentment of racism when in fact there is real oppression going on. That is why I make the claim that you are a racist - because you deny the existence of the massive and brutal oppression upon which this country is built and which continues to this day.
