my thoughts:
why would he? Being black was his whole propaganda in his first campaign. plus what more is there for African Americans(or him specifically) to achieve? they're not oppressed anymore. Hardly anyone hates black people just because the color of their skin nowadays(and even so, racism will continue till the end of time. theres nothing you can do about the few racists out there). black people are way beyond the point of trying to get social acceptance. the civil rights movement was like 50 years ago.
so Flood what do you think? Is using the racecard even relevant anymore? If so, how is it?

I don't mean to generalize, I know that there are always exceptions. But to say that conservatives are the only ones that are racists simply is not true. Liberals are just as racist as anybody else. This is an applicable quote: "Judge not, that you be not judged. For with the judgement you pronounce you will be judged, and with the measure you use it will be measured with you. Why do you see the speck that is in your brother's eye, but do not notice the log that is in your own eye? Or how can you say to your brother, 'Let me take the speck out of your eye,' when there is a log in your own eye? You hypocrite, first take the log out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to take the speck out of your brother's eye"- Matthew 7:1-5
