"In writing about the impeachment in 1998, [Toni] Morrison wrote that, since Whitewater, Bill Clinton had been mistreated because of his "Blackness":
Years ago, in the middle of the Whitewater investigation, one heard the first murmurs: white skin notwithstanding, this is our first black President. Blacker than any actual black person who could ever be elected in our children’s lifetime. After all, Clinton displays almost every trope of blackness: single-parent household, born poor, working-class, saxophone-playing, McDonald’s-and-junk-food-loving boy from Arkansas.[17]
The phrase "our first Black president" was adopted as a positive by Bill Clinton supporters. When the Congressional Black Caucus honored the former president at its dinner in Washington D.C. on September 29, 2001, for instance, Rep. Eddie Bernice Johnson (D-TX), the chair, told the audience that Clinton "took so many initiatives he made us think for a while we had elected the first black president."

But that didn't last long, once the "first mainstream African-American who is articulate and bright and clean and a nice-looking guy," Biden said" came along.....the one whom Harry Reid said was electable because he is a "light-skinned African-American with no Negro dialect...unless he wants one". So it's all about race.
Leave your brain at the door and Vote by Color. That's the party's motto. |
So sad to say...but you are absolutely right. 
It was that way in 2008 and promises to be repeated in 2012.
Be prepared to be called "racist".
