I think this misses the point and attempts to dismiss the point and that is that as an event, stand alone the African American group supporting Obama and being asked to do so should not supprise or shock anyone.

However the point, as I see it, is that have any Rep candidate ask for WHITE support and see how big that tea pot gets! The tempest would be more like a tempest in an ocean!

It has nothing to do with GROUPS backing a candidate. Is about a certain RACE or COLOR backing a candidate.

To act as if it is not, is not being honest.
