It does seem that Obama is more about trying to insult Hillary these days. Hopefully they can stay friends after this silly mess is all over.

Seriously. I realize they are trying to win but their petty attacks against each other are doing a lot of harm.

Later Wednesday, Obama gave a 10-minute talk by live broadcast to a joint meeting in Atlanta of four historically black Baptist denominations, where Clinton appeared later. These groups produced some of the most prominent civil rights leaders, including the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr., whom Obama quoted.

"Pastors are pushing this movement forward," Obama said of his campaign, "and I need each and every one of you in this fight."

He asked the audience to imagine what it would mean for the country to see him with his hand on the Bible, taking the presidential oath of office.

"Our children will look at themselves differently and their possibilities differently. They'll look at each other differently," he said.
I thought Mr. Obama did not want this to be about race. Lets see if you post this comment

Are they really doing a lot of harm? It seems to me that Democrats on a whole are pretty committed to remaining unified and electing a Democrat in November.

Why apologize for saying people are bitter due to socio-economic difficulties? It's the truth, and it is okay for them to be that way. Parsing language in this manner insults an adult's intellect. It's assinine to take a position, then look for ways to defend, rather than acknowledging reality and making decisions from there. Ideological and partisan hacks!

I assure you Mary that I am entirely white, yet I had my 13 year old daughter and my 15 year old son beside me as we watched this historical moment unfold. I know already that my children will look at the world differently than I did when I was their age, as they will see their American compatriots of color differently than their parents did. And today I can say, to those 35 million people who pulled the curtain behind them, and proceeded to vote for the first female candidate or the first African American candidate, "We've come a long way,baby". You should be proud,America. There will always be people like Mary Smith, who would like to find that fissure in order to continue to seperate us, but thank God, America is finally growing up, and, if your as old as I, it is our children we have to thank for it. To you 20 and 30 somethings, we've been waiting a long time for the next "greatest generation".

These days Obama is wooing her so hard, I'm surprised he isn't carring candy and flowers.

Let me get this straight the Clinton's get themselves into a bind and due to the tremendous dedication that everyone feels for them we can't possibly allow them to go to bed without peace of mind of being debt free. And the balance of the Democratic Party is pleading to the rooftops of Obamaville that he should come to her rescue?!?!? Good thing the Democrats are pushing for change...this sounds so pathetic and same old same old. Money for votes. Now I know traditionally it's been the white Democrats paying African American's for votes (in nearly every election since 1960).

How many Americans do you think strive out to start a new business and/or new venture investing their own time and money? Who comes to their rescue or pays their bills? No one. That's the American Way. Of course we should never expect the elitist Clintons to think the normal rules apply to them.

I say suck it up (much like Monica did) and pay your own bills. Obama is an idiot for paying for Hillary supporters votes. I had more faith in him than he seems to have in himself all of a sudden!!

So the Dems have been buying black votes for 50 years? Um, yeah.

Let's look at what has really happened in this country -- for the last 30 years the GOP has bribed us for our votes, with tax cuts which our children will have to pay for.
