Thousands of images of his campaign around the country display Americans of all races supporting Obama. Clinton's have a legacy and have build relationships from their legacy. Who would you call on first for support? Those who have supported you in the pasts. Black leaders supporting Obama is a sign of what good leaders do they follow! Communities have spoken and they know who they want in office.

It's time the majority voice heard.... Jack,

Maybe, they are doing what they were voted into office to do, and that is represent the people who put them there. How different our country would be if all politicians listened to the people who put them in office.

Jack , this has nothing to do with black,white , blue or green. What this is about is , the American people are done with a House divided , and a do nothing congress, and that's all the Clintons have to offer. You can't be part of the solution , when your part of the problem like the Clintons. It means there smart enough to see that Hillary Clinton is un-electable in the general election.

The only endorsement he needs is God's. And the feeling I had when I first met him of being in the presence of "greatness" (of the good kind) the man who would be the next president assures me that he has that endorsement!

Or most of them lead from the back. Obama is the exception. He leads and the people follow. The momentum of the masses is with Obama. It has nothing to do with race. It has to do with political expedience. If the people are for Obama, the leaders must be for Obama, out of self preservattion. Jack:

They'd rather choose someone who will build a consensus to unite us, in preference over someone who has a history of trying to divide people to get something done.

She owes too many favors to too many politicians and corporations and is too much a part of the ongoing corrupt establishment to ever effect real change. Let us give a chance to someone who just might be able to reverse the terrible direction this country has been forced into.
