Nader: Obama trying to 'talk white'

There's an element of truth here (and an obvious injection of race), but I "think" this is just Nader trying to get his name in the paper...

Nader has some good talking points. Low income areas are targeted by pay day loan sharks and other blood sucking businesses. Of course, one could argue that that is where their market is. But those types of interests do cause a revolving door to the ghetto.
And Nader is right in implying Obama is afraid to put off white voters by taking on Black issues. Actually the issues are poverty issues, but many Black neighborhoods still fall into that category.
I would love to have the first African American as President in my lifetime, but this Democratic candidate doesn't seem to have an ear to the ground on the real issues of poverty. I don't listen to many speeches, but the ones I've heard seem too general.
Hhmmm...Ralph Nader. I might take a look a him. I didn't know he was really going to run again. Isn't he getting on in years?

Obama only talks white half the time..

I voted for Nader. He's obnoxious, ain't no doubt, but at least he knows Washington inside and out, and who's blowing who, and he knows Democrats are a sham and even more hypocritical than the Republicans. He also puts his money where his mouth is, and gives away half his income every year to various causes; you won't find that in Ospama or the Clintons tax returns. All the noise about 'how much the Clintons gave to charities', and of course the vast bulk of it went to their own 'foundation', where most of the money was still sitting, the last I read about it.

Which half does all the stuttering and gets confused on what his 'position' is when he tries going 'oner on one' answering off the cuff questions that aren't spoon fed to him by his own staff members?
