    @jpetty

    You're exactly right jpetty. African-American delegates and voters are accustomed to "forgiving and forgetting," "getting over it," "sucking it up," and "getting with the program." They've done it for years within the Democratic Party. No voting bloc is more loyal to the party!! They voted 90% for Kerry, Gore, and Bill Clinton...and did so without reservation.

    But I'm telling you...not this time!!! IF this subtle plot by the Hillary forces succeeds in undermining Obama's chances...as James Baldwin said, "No more water, the FIRE next time!!!
