Absolutely! I think the media has really fallen short in distinguishing this in polls. I think that their reports risk implying that black people vote black because they are -- pretty offensive to me, at least. I think Hillary and Bill's recent comments are example enough that if they actually do understand modern racial conflict, they don't really care enough about it to avoid seemingly naive racially charged remarks about Obama (namely, the MLK and Jesse Jackson comments).
