    Bill Clintons comment about Obama where he said "a few years ago, this guy would be getting us coffee" could be interpreted as racist, but I think it's a bit of a stretch. He could have just as easily been referring to his age and junior status.

    As to your claim that Clinton ran a campaign with "obvious racial undertones", I haven't seen any evidence of that.

    I'm no big fan of the Clintons. They certainly have major flaws, but I have a hard time buying the outrage and the accusations when the current president is guilty of far worse offences with no criticism from you.

    It comes off as fake outrage in order to score political points.

    Edit: it's also a handy way to distract from the topic and Trump's vile behaviour with regards to his birther campaign.

    His junior status was exactly what Bill was referring to. He was saying Obama would have been the intern that would be trying to grab the mic from Acosta, that he shot up from nowhere onto the national stage. It’s funny how the hard right tries to say the clintons were racist, when so many black people regard Bill as the first black president.

    What a cop out.

    You can keep inanely calling me a hack all you want. It only makes you look like you're frustrated and that you have no argument.
