It's not just whites who are not always up to hearing comments like that, but I think a lot of blacks don't want to hear stuff likfe that either. I mean, say something of substance, say something that is really relevant to what the community faces. Either she is ignorant of those issues period or she really doesn't know how to relate to our community. If the latter is the case, then we already had to deal with that with Bush so she better get with it or lose the black votes she THOUGHT were in her pocket.

Good analysis. Many of us want to hear discussion of educational and economic issues. And I agree that many AfAms aren't necessarily receptive to rhetoric about "plantations." I mean, talk to me about whether I can find and keep a job in this economy and if I have kids, will they have a quality public education.
