I keep on hearing people -- confessed Democrats, mostly -- talking on the radio or television, about how we are far too overdue for a black President. We're far too overdue for a female President.
I don't know... maybe we are overdue, for a non-white/non-male President. I wonder why more non-white-male people don't come forward as candidates. Why

It would be bad enough to be faced with this meaningless choice between the only superficially different packages for the same irrational product, but the two products are both defective.
Clinton is the product of the power mad experience of the Arkansas governship and the Clinton White House, where she learned that you can tell any lie that is convenient and not be held accountable for it.
And Obama is the product of a system of racial identification and indoctrination that places his black race identity above his identity with his own white mother and white grandmother, who raised him. He has adopted Jeremiah Wright as his spiritual father, and has promised, in his famous speech in Philadelphia, that he is going to make America "more perfect" by achieving the goals of Reverend Wright.
Go back and read the speech. He justifies Wright's anger, refuses to distance himself, mentions Wright baptized his daughters, but does not talk about taking his daughters to hear Reverend Wright say "God damn America" every Sunday. He says the only thing wrong with Wright is his impatience, because Obama is going to make America into the kind of country that Wright wants, where whites are held accountable for bombing Hiroshima (why are blacks entitled to be mad about that?) and for sending AIDs into the black community (with the cooperation of all those white gay men, apparently).
America does not owe Clinton the White House because she is a woman. Americans elected her to the Senate, along with Republican women, too. America does not owe Obama the White House. America elected him to Congress, along with other blacks (evben a Republican, J.C. Watts). We have treated neither Hillary nor Barack poorly. They are in the most powerful, exclusive, elite club in America. Only one American in 3 million gets to join. We have no debt to work off to them.
What we do owe to all blacks and women is to treat these candidates with equality, the same way we would treat a white male in their position, with examination of the policies they will support and the personality they will take with them that will be answering the telephone at 3 AM, and that will be representing America to the world, including predators like ex-KGB operative Vlad "the Impaler" Putin.
