racial and ethnic divides. Yes, it is the Clintons who have most
wanted to remind the world that he is BLACK (or at least
multiracial). We all know that.
Have you however read or heard or paid any attention to his speech

off your Hillary Blinders and read the damn speech, you would see
that it is NOT IN ANY respect inconsistent with his campaign to date.
It is inconsistent with YOUR CANDIDATE'S racism; but don't confuse
Hillary with Barack.
