At one of the debates Joe Biden was asked a question about accusations that he has made comments that were insulting to African-Americans. Every Democrat on that stage - including Obama and Edwards, leaped to Biden's defense. Look at the situation today. Obama in a not-so-subtle campaign (internal memos) and the jackal Edwards joining in the phony accusations, are fanning the flames of false, terrible accusations against Bill and Hillary Clinton. A bell cannot be un-rung. It is not the Clinton's who have rung that bell, it is an unbelievable display of paranoia on the part of some, diabolical distortion by some, and the regrettable ignorance of history by some, that have created a terrible division in the Democratic Party, and probably in the country at large. Thanks to Donna Brzille, Rep. Clyburn, Jesse Jackson, Jr., pundits and MSM all over the map who even misquote to rachet up the story, and most especially Barack Obama and John Edwards. I am a life-long Democrat, but now I will not vote for anyone but Hillary Clinton in November. I cannot reward anyone who stoops so low as to falsely accuse an innocent person of appealing to racism; it's the same as falsely accusing someone of rape. I am sure there are many African-Americans who say the same about not voting for anyone but Obama. In my opinion the Obama forces, with the help of the jackal Edwards, have insured the election of John McCain as the 44th President of the United States.

Why do Obama supporters want to rewrite history?
Dr. King would be the first to acknowledge LBJ's vital role in bringing King's vision for America closer to reality by pushing through the Civil Rights Act 1964 and the Voting Rights Act 1965.
LBJ acted out of principle and at great personal and political cost. Congress was reluctant to vote for these acts because they knew the cost to the Democratic Party would be deep and long lasting. It was LBJ who twisted the arms of Democrats and Republicans alike, and persuaded Republicans to make up the deficit caused by the "nay" votes of the southern Democrats.
Acknowledging LBJ's considerable contributions to the advance of civil rights in this country does nothing to diminish the enormous contribution Dr. King made to the cause of justice in America. I lived through that time. I know what happened. I'm appalled at the charges against Hillary Clinton for stating what was, and is, an absolute truth.
It did take an experienced and committed president to bring a dedicated and courageous prophet's vision to fruition. It still does.
