105. If a Hillary supporter said this, as satire of course, what would you say?
And I hate to say it, but this is the most unsettling thing. I understand Obama's of mixed race. I don't know if that true, and I know I personally would not be bothered in the least if he maybe had a touch of the tarbrush going back 12 generations or something, since some of my best friends have a touch of the tarbrush going back 12 generations. But let's get real here. Most Americans won't vote for an octaroon, or even a white guy with a tan. Look at what happened to Romney. Poor guy never had a chance, because the American electorate just doesn't like people of color. Well, except voters who are people of color. We all know they vote as a bloc, anyway.


It's a fair question.
