No, I’m not black, and neither is President Jimmy Carter. But, folks like Congressional Black Caucus Chairman Jim Clyburn and John Lewis are. Now, they’ve not publicly said they disagree with President Barack Obama’s claim there is no racism behind even more vociferous opposition to him.
However, an unelected African-American intellectual leader like Eugene Robinson isn’t afraid to speak the truth in public. Neither is Bob Herbert.
No quickie Kumbaya Summit or Suds Summit could dive into this; and, we know Obama “doesn’t want the distraction” as he allegedly tries to give us a national healthcare bill. Well, I’m sure we’ll hear that for the next 3 1/2 years.
