His bold straightforward speech to AIPAC is still further proof of his outstanding brilliance and intellect regarding political leadership. Simply put he is the most competent major politician to come down the pike in decades.

Every minute she hangs on and every minute the Supers pander to her are destructive. She has already cost him 15 points in negative ratings with all of her dust-ups. She has no compunction about continuing to wound his general election chances since she is not the nominee. She would love for him to lose, there is no other explanation for this ridiculous conceding as slowly as possible.

Another disingenuous proposal by a Clinton supporter that will go nowhere in a court of fair and reasoned judgment. There is no fair way to put Humpty Dumpty back together once the DNC broke Humpty open to make the 2008 Nomination rules and race omelet. It was unwise for him to have trusted Hillary and removed his name from the Michigan ballot. It is common knowledge that the majority of the votes cast in Florida were early voters of Hillary Clinton name recognition. The late votes were 2 to 1 Obama voters and its clear that had he been able to campaign in the State that these results would have been more dramatic for Obama as his campaigning efforts in other States consistently proved. To put it another way, if he had been barred from campaigning in other states Hillary wouldn't need to be trying to steal the nomination now. Barack trusted her in Michigan and shame on Hillary, if he trusts Hillary now shame on him!

The Obama campaign didn't pounce on this insensitive and ridiculous Freudian slip on the part of Hillary Clinton. They graciously accepted her word for her intent as they have done repeatedly during this campaign, a courtesy of civility that she has never demonstrated nor returned.

Bill Moyers has always been the hero of reason and integrity and professional journalism. It's so clear that the MSM has traded their integrity and sacred trust to tell the truth for rating points and narcissistic bloviating. I also loved Bill Moyers' thesis on flag pins when he declared "I love my mother too but I don't feel obliged to wear a lapel pin with her picture on it to prove the point". I wish Barack would use it.

That Bill Moyers is an icon of intelligent journalism is no surprise but where are all the rest of the lions of journalism and decent Americans who are sitting on the sidelines and who by their silence are giving voice to bigots and cynics through this tragic public lynching.....??????

Judgment and a distaste for pandering the electorate still makes Barack the candidate of choice.

Politically a separation might make sense strategically, but the downside is if it looks like throwing him under the bus; Barack will lose more than he gains.particularly among Black voters and others who agree hat Rev. Wright has been crucified by the MSM and bigots. I have to tell you after listening to Rev. Wright's three appearances over the weekend and this morning, despite his justifiable anger, and yes preacher/politician style ego; I am impressed with his candor, intelligence and plain old cajones for "telling it like it is" and I doubt I'm the only one.

I think you are SO wrong, truthful exposure to Rev. Wright like the Bill Moyer's interview will trump the lies of the twisted snippets that have been created to distort the truth about this devout and most intelligent man. Truth will always eventually prevail over lies while the blind by ignorance will sadly be blind and ignorant forever!

You appear to be ignorant of the fact that the primary way HIV/AIDS is spread in the Black community is through heroin addicts sharing needles and Rev. Wright's thesis was the suspicion that the war on drugs seems to have missed the African American communities except busting young black men for dealing recreational drugs. Where does all that heroin come from dugan49? Ever seen an African American making drug deals in Afghanistan? I've only seen black servicemen there.
