Bill Clinton says that in the choice between race and gender, voters should select gender in deciding their votes.

This is, unfortunately, was printed yesterday or today, after both campaigns promised the American people that they would leave gender and race out of the election and instead focus on the issues.

"Hillary has an enormous amount of African American support and Barack Obama has a lot of white people for him," he said in Sparks. There's still some African Americans who support Barack, even though they like Hillary, because they think he is the first African American to have a chance to be president," Clinton said. "And there's a lot of women who are voting for Hillary, even though they like Sen. Obama, because they think it would be better if a woman broke the glass ceiling."


That's right Bill, it's a black man vs. a woman. Why bother selecting a candidate based upon their plans for our country? Americans are obviously too dumb to decide between candidates based on the strength of their proposals. Oh no, it must be broken down into simple terms for us...

Why do they keep bringing this up? I wish they wouldn't, but as long as they do, I'm going to call them on it.

As an aside: I'd really appreciate it if somebody finds audio to this event that they post the link here. I'm really hoping this statement wasn't as bad as it sounds. Thanks.
