I am a 50 year old white woman. My husband and I are so proud of Sen. Obama for what he's done and we have been sure since standing in the 10 degree temperature in Springfield the morning of Obama's announcement that he would become the next president. Regardless of what the pundits say, alot of white blue collar support Obama. Look at Iowa, Nebraska, Kansas, ect. I find it so insulting to Obama to push this false story and chase some whites away thinking he cannot be elected because from the pundits they say their own will not vote for him. But, I would love to know, if you could write some posts, of how some African Americans are feeling today knowing Obama is the nominee. It has to be so monumental a moment. Deep inside there has to be such emotions. And after what the Clintons did in abandoning blacks in favor of appealing to the racist side of ethnic working class. The southern strategy in our own party and against Obama. Yesterday I believe African Americans exacted payback and knocked the Clintons out. Blacks got Obama over the top and made him the nominee. I really would love to read about how african americans feel about this and triumphing over the Clintons and seeing Obama as the first African American presidential nominee. thanks Oliver,
