I promise that we'll get back to some sort of consistency with Afronerd Radio but sometimes a new year can bring an individual new headaches....but that being said, let's talk about Democrat and the Senate Majority Leader, Mr. Harry Reid. There's a new book entitled, Game Change: Obama and the Clintons, McCain and Palin, and the Race of a Lifetime
The book affirms that Clinton, who was vying for an endorsement (on behalf of Hillary Clinton) from the late Ted Kennedy, exclaimed that Obama "a few years ago this guy [Obama] would have been getting us coffee." Again, this is coming (allegedly) from a person that was given honorary Negro (ah...that word again) status in the African-American community. And then there's the rub that if Reid were on the conservative side of the aisle, the Dems would not have been anywhere near as forgiving. Perhaps what Reid said was rather crude but we are keenly aware that Obama had to be presented as a palatable Black person for White (and Black) public consumption. Heck, we've encountered this with Rosa Parks and Jackie Robinson. Both Parks and Robinson had to be a certain "type" of Black person in order to pursue their respective agendas. But this will be tabled for our next radio broadcast. There's a lot to chew on this week for Afronerd Radio....the census, Reid, Arenas.....but what say you regarding this latest dust up?
