Reply #17: Both guys should listen to what John Lewis said about Obama, [View All]

and this is something the mediawhores did not want to show because this man is the most qualified person alive to give an opinion about this dark charge from the Obama camp that Senator Clinton was diminishing the role of Martin Luther King, when she said it took LBJ working with him and the movement to make its ideals into the law of the land.

"It is unfortunate that people have tried to distort what Mrs. Clinton had to say about Dr. King," "I think there has been a deliberate and systematic attempt by some people in the Obama campaign to really fan the flames about race and to really distort what Senator Clinton said. I understood and I think most right thinking people understood what she said.
"President and Senator Clinton have a record, a history, a very long history of bringing people together. No right thinking American would ever think that Senator or President Clinton would ever do anything that would use the race card"
"I must tell you...I'm trying to set the record straight...the Obama camp is doing something else, theyr'e sending out memos to the media trying to suggest that the Clintons are playing the race card."


-Rep. John Lewis on News Hour 1/14
The transcript is not available, I got those quotes off the audio, this is must listening


By the way, the expected and disgusting attacks on Rep. Lewis have already begun, in Sunday's Washington Post, William Jelani Cobblets, a Obama supporter whose greatest contribution to our culture seems to be as the author of a book called, "The Devil and Dave Chappelle", wrote in a Op-Ed that; "John Lewis is of the group that had "parlayed its dated activist credentials into cash and jobs". "To the extent that the term "leader" is applicable...Lewis is essentially representative-for-life of the 5th Congressional District in Georgia" who "opts to support a white machine politician."


Can you imagine that the man who wrote these words is a Asst. Professor of History at Spellman College?
