What the hell are we doing here people? I thought we stood for equality for ALL, not some outdated sense that we have to make up for past inequality by denying others their rights. I'm talking about awarding any delegates from Michigan to Obama. I heard all the stupid arguments about how people would have voted for him. That doesn't change the fact that he took his own name off the ballot. He removed himself from the process, why would he now want a share of those delegates he shunned? We know there was no reason or requirement for him to remove his name. So why did he do it? His lack of judgement in this was bad political strategy, not a show of solidarity with the DNC. Why now should he be rewarded with 59 legitimate delegates that he did not earn? The answer is shamefully obvious. Barack Obama is being judged by a different standard. He is being nominated on a "curve", because he can't win this race legitimately. The DNC, and the far left are making excuses for him, giving him delegates he didn't win, in races he wasn't in. Taking legitimate delegates away from candidates who earned them. The media is in on it too and they demonize Hillary every chance they get and keep telling her to drop out, even though they never seem to tell Ron Paul the same. The DNC is sending a message loud and clear that THEY want Obama regardless of how half of the party feels about it. They said loud and clear today how they will do it, by breaking their own RULES. I can't support this decision guys and if I have to vote McCain to stop you I will. We no longer stand for anything and this is political suicide. If the only way we can nominate a black candidate is by affirmative action...does he really deserve it? I don't think so and I know a lot of black people who would agree with me.
