Wow that was nice to watch


I've just been watching CNN and saw this wonderful piece on South Carolina and the AA vote.

Pretty powerful, people standing in a black church and being honest about their voting.

Michelle Obama sat on one side of the church and Chelsea Clinton sat on the other.

Both were greeted with rapturous reception and applause and then when the service was over, half the congregation went to Michelle, the other half went to greet Chelsea.

Very moving.

Black voters saying that we won't just vote because Obama because he is black and we have great respect for the Clintons, showing black supporters equally as much as to Obama and equally as much voting for Hillary. Some even expressing, he was not ready yet. I liked the way it was portrayed, very respectful to both. Then Michelle and Chelsea greeted each other and wished each other good luck.

Very good piece.

1. All the polls indicate that African Americans in SC
are squarely in the Obama camp. I'm sure they were nice to Chelsea. That's just good manners.
