When Hillary tells SuperDs that Obama is unelectable due to race, isn't that the Ultimate Elitism?
Advertisements [?]
A most Ancient Elitism indeed.

We need to end this memetic plague on the mind of mankind here and now.

We cannot elect a President who sees the world in Blacks and Whites.

Hillary grew up in a time where the Dream of Racial Equality was born,
but unfortunately for her and many like her, she does not believe the Dream can actually come true.
She is burdened by the prejudices of the past. Prejudices which she, like everyone, tries to wash clean, yet her worldview is unfortunately narrowed.

However, for Barack Obama and all those millions that came after him, they were born into a world where the Dream could become a reality.
We who are not bound up by the memes of the pre-1960s.
Our minds can actually accept the possibility of an Integrated World.
And our Children are stepping into a World where the Dream will be a given...

Barack Obama is the fruition of the Dream, within our grasp.
We can make it Real, together.

Not because he is a Black Man, but because he is a Man of the People and of the Times
He will organize our Community to Action
He will defend our Civil Rights
He will enforce the Constitution of the United States

He will be our next President.

"You may say I'm a Dreamer, but I'm not the only One...."
