Bobby Kennedy Predicts Barack Obama


Robert F. Kennedy gave a speech to the Voice of America in May 1968 ... 40 years ago. Despite what was going on in the country, Bobby Kennedy noted that things are "moving so fast in race relations a Negro could be president in 40 years.

There's no question about it ... In the next 40 years a Negro can achieve the same position that my brother has." 'But we have tried to make progress and we are making progress. We are not going to accept the status quo.'

Someone needs to write a book on what America might have been like if Bobby Kennedy was elected president in 1968 instead of Richard Nixon. Can you name anything that you think would be different?

Hillary Clinton Stays In Race Because Obama Might Be Assassinated Like Robert Kennedy


Hillary Clinton is a brilliant, calculating, power-hungry woman. She doesn't do anything by accident. Therefore, I don't think it was an accident that she told folks in South Dakota that she refuses to concede defeat for the Democratic Party nomination because Barack Obama might be assassinated.

Her exact words were,
"My husband did not wrap up the nomination in 1992 until he won the California primary somewhere in the middle of June, right? We all remember Bobby Kennedy was assassinated in June in California. I don't understand it."
Villagers, I am concerned about the careless way that Hillary Clinton, Mike Huckabee, Roswell Beacon, Francine Torge and Doris Lessing talk about assassination of the first legitimate African American candidate for President of the United States. It is rough enough to try to heal race relations rift in our nation without having white leaders such as Hillary Clinton making these types of comments.

The Obama campaign remains cool, calm and collected in their response to Clinton's comments: "Senator Clinton's statement before the Argus Leader editorial board was unfortunate and has no place in this campaign."

This is a serious and sensitive issue. It is also another reason that Hillary Clinton should simply GO AWAY! This ish truly makes a brotha mad! Somebody help me understand what motivates Hillary Clinton?
