Ferraro: Obama is lucky he's black
   
"If Obama was a white man, he would not be in this position. And if he was a woman (of any color) he would not be in this position. He happens to be very lucky to be who he is. And the country is caught up in the concept."

What is she getting at?

Do other Clinton supporters agree with this?

Is right!!
When you are the beneficiary of someone’s kindness and generosity, it produces a sense of gratitude and community.

When you are the beneficiary of a policy that steals from someone and gives it to you in return for your vote, it produces a sense of entitlement and dependency.

Sounds to me like a gender-based insult.

So racism and stupidity are bad but misogyny's okay?

I do agree with you that what Ferraro said is reprehensible.

i'm so glad i'm not a feminist. seems you have to have a stick up your ass about every gender issue on the planet.  :yawn:
