Blacks Don't Owe The Clintons a thing....

Quote of the day: "In Detnews.com, Roland S. Martin says Blacks don't owe the Clintons a thing, and after reading the column you know he wished he could have titled it Blacks don't own the Clinton's a damn thing.Whatever has possessed black people to rail against Obama for not being black enough, but give Hillary Clinton a black-for-free card, escapes me. I know there are a lot of blacks who can't help but defer to white over black where there interests are concerned, but this is shameful. If you read the papers, it appears blacks have more of a problem with a black candidate than whites or anyone else.I will give Clinton his due for his presidency and I really like and respect the man now for all the work his foundation is doing. He continues to have a relationship with the community and good for him, but is someone under the impression this was a favor he's been showing us? Blacks are the reason he was elected, so what really do we owe him? And as far as Hillary is concerned, WTF? Last week she goes down to Selma and suddenly picks up her husband's southern accent? Go check for the video on YouTube. It's so embarrassing for her. I'm not saying blacks have to vote for Obama because race is not a reason to vote for or against someone, but we need to stop thinking Hillary is "our" candidate just because you may have thought her husband was down." - Angela Winters
