BILL CLINTON: “I AM NOT A RACIST”

// October 26th, 2008 // Hott Look@Politics

the original first black president

I wrote this article after Barack won the Democratic Nomination and the heat between him and Hilary was still – Hott! Since my site wasn’t live at that time and I haven’t had a chance to publish this until now.

Here it is. I still think it’s sort of revelant.

Enjoy!

In an interview with ABC News back in August. Former President CLINTON acknowledges there are some things “I wish I hadn’t said” during the Democratic presidential nomination fight, but denies he made racist statements about Barack Obama.

While saying that he “bragged on Sen. Obama hundreds of times” during his wife’s campaign, Bill Clinton denied that he ever made racist comments about the Democratic presidential contender. “There are things … I wished I hadn’t said, but I am not a racist,” the former president said.

A news feed from the associated press indicates that Clinton, who had traveled to Rwanda for his private foundation’s work to fight AIDS, charged that news organizations applied “a different standard” to his wife, Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton.

But when asked about it in an interview broadcast ABC’s “Good Morning America,” the former president said that spending time on such recriminations “interferes with the issue, which is who should be elected in November.”

I believe that statement doesn’t make Bill Clinton a racist. The former president has a whole lot of black friends.

In fact, so many black friends. He has the photo to prove it.

Even though, Bill isn’t running for office. The idea is still relevant. Barack and Bill are brothers. They’re brothers not by blood, but by soul. Maybe Obama should challenge him to a dance-off.

I don’t care what anyone says Bill Clinton is still the first black persident — by any means neccessary. Power to t he people!

Sorry folks, I got sidetracked with another one of those Malcolm X moments. I just saw Spike Lee’s “X” on bootlegged DVD for the first time.
