More than three thousand people gathered to see New York Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton make her first presidential campaign stop in South Carolina The overflowing audience packed an auditorium at Allen University, a historically black college, to hear Clinton speak in a town hall-style setting.
Over the weekend, Senator Barack Obama of Illinois drew a crowd approaching five thousand at historically black Claflin College.
HBCU’s are a must-visit in this early voting state where half the Democratic primary voters are black.

Pat Robertson, Jerry Farwell and Bob Jones III all endorsed Tim Hardaway for President today.
Obama and Clinton need these votes to get out of the primary, so expect the Palmetto state to be over-run with folks funny speaking folks. Lines are being drawn and it looks like the old civil rights guards against the new bloods. The first one who brings in Timmy Hardaway will win, remember this the Dirty South.

Before primaries became so pervasive, parties picked better candidates. Guys would sit in smoke filled rooms and pick guys like Eisenhower, Truman, Roosevelt. The irony of it all since the process is now more democratic, these weasels they nominate don’t reflect the mainstream. I can see those red-necks down in sc sitting around with Hillary eating croissants, and sharing a pork chop sanmic with Obama. I don’t see it happening.

I’m with you George. I don’t give a hoot what those hillybillies do. No democrat have won there since James Brown was chased down.
February 20, 2007 at 11:23 pm
George…u seem to have a very low opinion of the folks in sc.
February 20, 2007 at 11:29 pm
Ditto to Obama and Hillary..
I want a Gore/Edwards ticket. The more I see of Obama, the less I like him.
He’s an empty suit like George W. and damn if I’m voting for Hillary and watch bill, jesse and vernon jordan have Pimp parties while she is away.
February 20, 2007 at 11:30 pm
I will vote for Obama because he is a new face and we need new blood.
February 20, 2007 at 11:32 pm

Attention to all you Hillary Clinton supporters out there(and the law of averages says there will be few of you): please read>>>> http://www.slate.com/id/2160238

This puts Hillary recent Iraq War statements in context and it shows, persuasively, that she is in trouble.
February 21, 2007 at 1:44 pm
When are you darkies going to figure out, we owe the Clinton’s nothing. It was Black fok who kept Bill’s butt in office. If anything, they owe us.

Someone told me there was either a Homo Sapien or a Thespian involved with this site, so i’m going back to Black America Web, where the member are not as intelligent.

Great Jodie… We have to keep nuts like you at bay. When you visit out site, by the way, are you a member? When idiots like you appear, we should change the name to”When Idiots Blog”

“Hillary eating croissants, and sharing a pork chop sanmic with Obama”. I don’t see it happening. This is hailorous and racist at the same time. How do you know Hillary eats croissants or Barack eats pork chops. I’m willing to bet its the reverse order, because after all Bill is Black and Obama is not in the eyes of some. I wonder
February 21, 2007 at 1:54 pm
I guess by now I’m voting for my brother Obama, but I reserve the right to change my mind. I really like both candidates, but it disturbs me to see candidates sucking up to southerns, especially down in sc. I was in the military there and when I go to FL, I make sure I’m gassed up so I don’t have to stop in that rebel state.
February 21, 2007 at 1:56 pm
When its all over, Blacks will have to stick with Hillary or Obama, so don’t trash them because we might have to support them because the Repubs will nominate a real red-neck.
February 21, 2007 at 2:01 pm
I know Clinton, Obama and Edwards can beat McCain, so lets be real. I’m sorry I have to bring reality into play.
February 21, 2007 at 2:04 pm
What you liberas going to do if Condi Rice throws her panties, I mean hat into the ring. She is definite a American-American, reared in the cradle of the nasty south,was connected with the civil rights movement in Bama.
She smart, foolish, uppity, and connected. whate happend if she and Hillary have to duke it out.
February 21, 2007 at 2:09 pm
Calling Political Black a non-partisan website for Blacks is a total distortion. To many republicans are shown in good light, and having a Giuliani banner is not non-partisan. I love the discussions about Obama and Clinton though. I’m leaning towards Clinton, but my wife thinks Obama is cute. Can you image a cute president, but we don’t have to worry about that if Hillary wins.
February 21, 2007 at 2:10 pm
I like the Condi..
February 21, 2007 at 2:18 pm
To be fair, Zelmo, there’s a stigma about being called a liberal in this society. There are plenty of people who quality as a “liberal” without being a bleeding heart.I’m placing my bet with moderates, and that seems to be where Obama and Hillary both sit. I do Like HRC stance on the flag.
February 22, 2007 at 1:06 pm
Jodie, you must be from outer space, of course we have homo sapiens and we are voting for Obama.. got it?
February 24, 2007 at 4:18 pm
