You come across as naive and neutral as the halfwits who watch CNN.

Harold Ford Jr.'s father "Harold Ford Sr." is half black and white and looks "very" Caucasian, his mother is black american with darker tone. Ford just came out taking after his father and looks more whiter then his brothers. So he is 75% African and 25% European but in america I guess that means "African American" most people of that percentage mix would look more black yet Obama who is only 50% African looks more black than Ford - Genetics are unpredictable

obamas Bain ads are working. who knew that people would question someone who got rich by getting rid of jobs, gosh it turns out even Republicans like keeping their jobs.

[Barbara Jones]

Ford & Booker are both getting monies from Wall Street. Go figa'

[starkweather444]

With Dems like this, who needs Republicans?

I don't know. I don't think their dog and pony show actually changes anything. They're just doing what they think keeps them in power (a lot of them don't understand it themselves, they just inherited their positions), but regardless the people Harold Ford is paid to "convince" are already largely on that page anyway.

There are more fundamental things being exploited to keep humans caged. Things that predate this televised theater.

Love it when Cenk explains it...
