Wow! I am speechless at the response the candidate gave the young questioner in the video. "..You can disagree with me and vote for the other candidate or run for office.." WHAT?!?! All the young man asked is how you would handle police brutality and injustice towards Black men in America. I hear the mumblings in the Black Community and the media hear them too but choose to ignore it. Obama should stop trying to quell Blacks by saying he is running for all of American people. WE ALL KNOW THAT, but he needs to address concerns of Blacks, too.

There is ALOT of interesting things I Did NOT know about HRC.
LITTLE ROCK, Ark. – The Clinton Presidential Library withheld more than a thousand pages about clemency the former president granted during his last days in office – including a pardon to fugitive financier Marc Rich –from a batch of documents recently released to the public. The library released 2,830 pages of documents this week on pardons President Bill Clinton considered for Mr. Rich and others during his last months in office but withheld other pages that archivists said would disclose confidential discussion of advice the ex-president received from advisers or would violate someone's privacy. The library's delays in releasing documents have prompted criticism of Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Rodham Clinton and her husband, the former president. A spokeswoman for the National Archives said that the agency may have misinterpreted Mr. Clinton's instructions and not released enough documents on the pardon.

If his wife should be elected president, Clinton said he would not interfere with her work or her advisers.
"I will do what I'm asked to do," Clinton said. "I will not be in the Cabinet. I will not be on the staff full-time. I will not in any way interfere with the work of a strong vice president, strong secretary of state, strong secretary of treasury.
"I will do what we've always done for each other," he said. "I will let her bounce ideas off me. I will tell her what I think."
Sounds like a co-presidency to me.. what's your thoughts?
The Kennedy endorsements today are a huge boost for Barack Obama and his campaign. The Clinton's will try to downplay it as "just another endorsement", but watch as Super Tuesday draws near the other party members will begin to rank and file. It will be interesting to see who supports whom.
We will find out who is willing to support the new thinking and who is willing to stay with the old thought of politics.
It will be, even more, interesting to see who remains neutral so as not to "ruffle any feathers" in the event either side win. That is the cowards way. Let's make note of this in the days ahead.
