In Virginia, he sure didn't do much of anything in particular to court
the black vote and there is a lot of it. Face it, though, anyone
running for office needs to court all the vote. I just don't see Obama
"using" his race. What are your sources for them saying that they are
saying other candidates are "courting" the black vote.

I was glad that last night he rejected the support of Louis Farrakhan.
The crazy rumors will probably be Obama's biggest problem. Last night,
my stepfather siad he could never vote for him because he had been
sworn in to the senate using the Koran. I'd already had the discussion
with my mom that her pastor was wrong about Obama being muslim, many
segments of our society will probably take that route to cover their
racism. At least you are being right out there with it and I respect
that.
