You've GOT to be kidding me
Via TPM, Geraldine Ferraro on how HARD it is for an African-American to be elected president:
Ms. Ferraro offered a similar sentiment. “I think it’s more realistic for a woman than it is for an African-American,” said Ms. Ferraro. “There is a certain amount of racism that exists in the United States — whether it’s conscious or not it’s true.”“Women are 51 percent of the population,” she added.
When did Geraldine say this?
2006.
Hillary, Geraldine and the Clinton campaign have lost what a thinking person would call their souls.

Since I first voted in 1984,I have unfailingly voted for the Democratic candidate for the presidency,but if Hillary Clinton somehow secures the nomination,I will be skipping that portion of the ballot.
I cannot,in good conscience,vote for what is essentially a Republican on the Democratic ticket.

There's a huge amount of white affirmative action that most whites swim in. GF calls it racism.

Gee, I wonder if George W. Bush would have been elected president if he weren't white? In fact, if George W. Bush isn't white and his last name isn't Bush, I imagine he's bagging groceries at Kroger or pumping gas at the local Shell station. Just sayin'

I think you're being a little harsh. Geraldine Ferraro has said she is not a racist, and I take her at her word. Because she said it, it must be true. Ferraro is not a racist... as far as I know.
