J.Patrick's Special Comment: In Response To Keith Olbermann

[Hopeful71]

You seem completely unaware of your own hypocracy

Dividing voters by skin color is introducing the issue of race & thereby starting the race baiting. If it doesn't matter then it doesn't matter. The only reason to focus on it is to belittle the support of a minority vote as if plenty of people don't vote for the white candidate simply because she's white. It's a can of worms that only serves to scare the majority race to fear the vote of the minority

Why not discuss if Hillary were a man?

[JordanDemocrat]

5 Stars :) Great analysis. It's great young folks like us actually have a concept of reality.

[michaelrobert1974]

The fact is that Barack Obama has gotten where he is with a majority of white voters. Those are facts!

[michaelrobert1974]

Sir, you are a bigot! I can not respect your viewpoint on Mr. Olbermann's much needed commentary.

[33003300block]

I have heard your rediculous and insane comments about Mr. Keith Olbermann and i would like to tell you, you are in non what so ever of a position to critique someone in their profession. Might have you crossed the line sir? might have you become just another person who wants to say their two cents? let me remind you that this is not a game where you may jusy say what ever your mind considers. So until you get where he is sir please in all do respect, SHUTUP!

[sergeantnorider]

What you and Ferraro said was racist. To say that Obama is "who" he is today because he is "black" is the height of racism. To disregard all of his accomplishments and talents as little more than the product of the sympathy of white liberals is beyond offensive. Have you forgotten so quickly that Senator Clinton was receiving %54 to %55 of the black vote at the begining of this contest? Did those black voters not know Obama was black at that time? Black voters abandoned Clinton; deal with it.

The whole problem with the world is that fools and fanatics are always so certain of themselves, but wiser people so full of doubt.

[EvilDrCatfish]

The lady was blatantly racist, and honestly? Hillary clinton's been throwing every hateful statement through her campaign plannings to shoot down Obama since she realized she was falling behind him. The only reason it appears that he's supporting Obama is because he's being truthful, and by rights and reason Obama is the only good Democratic candidate out there with a chance at the presidency. The only reason I can see that you're countering him is that you are a clinton supporter as you stated.

[wtfere]

lol @ the ending.

"Tonight the worst person in the world is Keith Olbermann".

I get a sense you did not like his commentary very much? ;) i'll go check it out.

[shonester]

Haha...you said your rant just like Keith did - similar manner.

How do people watch these reporters - aren't they suppposed to report what happens? Not have a hissy fit on tv??

[happy1s2]

GO HILLARY! We're behind you all the way!

[kjm5x5x]

I gotta say......I absolutely agree with you. People never want to step back, out of there emotions, and look at something intelligently. And everyone knows that Keith is totally in the tank for Obama, has been for quite a while. I love the way there was absolutely no outrage for the sexist portrayals of Hillary in the media. Way to pick your battles Keith.....

[baronmorris]

the clintons are recently worthy of disdain.

ferraro is out of touch and was out of bounds.

I welcome the day we have a deserving woman in the white house as president, but after the way she has conducted her campaign, I will not vote for hillary if she gets then nom. I will go third party.

finally, even as u mock and critique olbermann, u seem to be imitating his style (somewhat poorly). but I do commend u for taking the time and formulating ur thoughts and being in the mix.

peace!

[blackmegan7]

I think you are a little off. I understand how he looks like he is against hilary, but he's not. He is commenting on her lack of taking care of this matter. What that woman said was inaporite and hilary should have let people know by telling them that is'nt what she feels. The only reason everyone has so much to say about hilary is because she has been around, she has a lot more dirt on her and they are having a hard time finding bad shit to say about obama.

[newport5042005]

fuck apologizing he said what was right and obama got olberman and hillary got cnn and snl and most of all u look like a faggot

[adrianlawson]

Funny. You endorse Olbermann's rant about racism and then you let out an anti-gay obscenity. Can you spell hypocrite?

[adrianlawson]

To clear up any uncertainty, my last comment was directed at newport5042005, not at Jpatrick.

[tvfilm]

keep preaching

[shaicapone]

I could imagine you would have said the same thing back in 1999 about him and the Clintons.

I enjoy the commentary, but my friend how many people believe they are racist? How many people actual understand how racist their comments are? I am a black man and up until the start of this year was a huge clinton supporter; they have been using tones of racism. I know it is hard for many whites to see this, but it isn't for blacks.

[shaicapone]

The Clintons have done a lot for Blacks, but that doesn't mean that they aren't incapable of making racist statements. Bill is from arkansas, he grew up around subtle racism. Although he may not adhere to it, he understands the power of words and the perception of words and how they can be interpreted by portions of the population. I love what they did for us in the past, but this is not then this is now and they have been using racist undertoning in their campaign.

[shaicapone]

And the problem is not that Geradine said that the Blacks where voting for Barack, it is that the rest of her statement implied that Blacks would vote for any black candidate rather or not they are qualified. This is the problem, maybe you can't see this because you aren't black; but this implies that we are ignorant and don't "know any better" when following a politician who looks like us. This implies that we need someone to tell us when we are being shafted and can't think for ourselves.

[shaicapone]

I thank you for pointing out that whites and women have voted alike; but why didn't Geradine say that? Why didn't she say "just like women are voting for hillary because she is a woman"; because she doesn't believe that. History doesn't lie; her comments about Jesse Jackson coupled with Bills camparison of Barack and Jackson doesn't excuse away this notion of racism. You may be too close to see it, but I feel it and I can't deny it anymore - "our first black president" has shed his skin.

[shaicapone]

As for this whole white man, black man message comment - have you looked at the states that Bill Carried in 1992 and 1996; Blacks voted for him in overwhelming numbers. He was running on a platform of changing the way that Washington did business. Now unless I mised something, Bill isn't black.

And your comment about not faulting us for voting for Barack is recieved well. Blacks are glad to have the graciousness of a white male telling us its okay to vote for someone we like.

[shaicapone]

Bro I will leave you with this, your comment is the exact reason why there is such an undertone of racism, because people think by degrading the vote of blacks that somehow they are telling the truth.

You said that Barack doesn't have a message that appeals to blacks, how do you know that? You aren't black, how many blacks do you talk to?

And answer me this, if Barack was in deed white, would race be a factor. If he were winning would it be a factor?
