Ferraro, the Real Monster & the Double Standard

HILLARY IS LOSING BECAUSE OF SEXISM & RACISM

The poor lamb, Mrs. Clinton, has been thoroughly vetted and tested. She has 35 years of experience. She is ready on day 1 to lead our country. And she says she brought peace to Northern Ireland.

However, she is losing to Obama because a large percentage of Americans are racist and sexist. (At least according to Clinton fundraiser and former vice-presidential candidate Geraldine Ferraro.)

Ferraro said in a Friday interview, the only reason that Obama is winning, is because he is black.

“If Obama was a white man, he would not be in this position,” she continued. “And if he was a woman 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.”

QUESTIONS:

  • The large amount of women (including Ferraro) who support Hillary Clinton, are they sexist?
  • The white voters in Ohio who polled that race was the most important factor in their votes, and chose Clinton 60% over Obama, are they racist?
  • When Jesse Jackson ran for President in 1984 and 1988, and later Al Sharpton ran for President in 2004, but both failed to garner enough support from whites and blacks alike, did the Presidential Affirmative Action Clause conveniently skip over them?
  • Since Obama is half-white, how does that figure into the equation?
