Hillary's reckless exploitation of racial division could split the Democratic Party over race -- a tragic legacy for the Clintons.
  • New Yorkers deserve better leadership

    As a New Yorker who has voted for Senator Clinton twice, I am extremely upset by her naked appeal to race when she warned that Obama was losing support among "white Americans". My children are of mixed race, and it saddens me deeply that their Senator would seek to gain support by dividing us rather than uniting us. Her New York constituents and other supporters must urge her to be a leader for all. What is ironic is that in Indiana Obama actually improved on his Pennsylvania performance with "white Americans".
