12. Just like Jefferson, Lincoln, and FDR

And even JFK appointed some segregationists. What is your point? They lived in different times and need to be judged by the times they lived in.

200 years from now Obama will be viewed as a retrograde homophobe, and perhaps even a racist depending on how history judges his campaign. Only Obama's campaign would tell superdelegates to vote for him because of his color. That has to be the most blatantly racist campaign since his hero Reagan in 1980.
