Question by Angelina Jolie, Jr.: Obama’s candidacy hair-trigger for race issues & conflict?he not top bet if he is White & Zero-Experience?
just saw this news all over CNN, TV and news, that a black billionaire said Obama wouldn’t be a presidential bet now if he is White, he is zero-experience, and does all these mean many of his voters and mass media excited emotionally by his unique condition as Black Presidential bet who makes good speeches & promises?is Obama a phenomenon that is emotional reaction to Bush, Iraq War, economic crisis, but not real solution we need or are looking for?
am I correct in changing my mind, now voting Hillary Clinton or McCain after agreeing with this Black tycoon’s words and also his indirect warnings about Obama’s past cocaine and marijuana use?Is there more negative surprises about Obama coming? am I correct in doubting Obama’s over-all fitness to be USA President? Why?
here’s news that triggered more questions on Obama for me, you think valid points by Black billionaire and leader of Black community?
BET founder takes on Obama, race
Mon Apr 14, 11:48 PM ET
The billionaire founder of Black Entertainment Television says Barack Obama would not be a leading presidential candidate if he were white and that the Illinois senator’s campaign has “a hair-trigger on anything racial.” The black tycoon questions the moral fitness and over-all qualifications of inexperienced Obama to be U.S. President, and points to the maturity, more experience and non-racial nature of Hillary Clinton’s presidential candidacy as ideal for U.S. stability, economic recovery and racial harmony.
The Charlotte Observer reported on its Web site Monday that Bob Johnson, one of Hillary Rodham Clinton’s top black supporters, was commenting on remarks previously made by Geraldine Ferraro, another Clinton supporter.
“What I believe Geraldine Ferraro meant is that if you take a freshman senator from Illinois called ‘Jerry Smith’ and he says I’m going to run for president, would he start off with 90 percent of the black vote?” Johnson said. “And the answer is, probably not.”
“Geraldine Ferraro said it right,” Johnson added. “The problem is, Geraldine Ferraro is white. This campaign has such a hair-trigger on anything racial it is almost impossible for anybody to say anything.”
Ferraro, a Democratic candidate for vice president in 1984, stepped down last month as an adviser to Clinton amid controversy over comments she made to the Daily Breeze newspaper in Torrance, Calif. “If Obama was a white man, he would not be in this position,” Ferraro said. “And if he was a woman (of any color) he would not be in this position. He happens to be very lucky to be who he is. And the country is caught up in the concept.”
Johnson, who owns the NBA’s Charlotte Bobcats, is a longtime friend of both Hillary Clinton and former President Clinton.
In January, Johnson seemed to refer to Obama’s acknowledged teenage drug use while introducing Clinton at a South Carolina event. He said the Clintons “have been deeply and emotionally involved in black issues — when Barack Obama was doing something in the neighborhood; I won’t say what he was doing, but he said it in his book — when they have been involved.”
Obama wrote about his youthful drug use — marijuana, alcohol and sometimes cocaine — in his memoir, “Dreams From My Father.” Johnson later denied that he was talking about Obama using drugs.

Let’s face it, if he’s white and attend’s Rev Wrights church, we’d have written him off as a screwball long ago.
