George McGovern and the Tea Party

First of all, it doesn't matter the percentage of the black population­; it matters how they are necessary for "running the table" to get to the nomination­.  

You don't get the nomination without getting the base of the Democratic Party on board, and Obama had no credibilit­y, no following, no support with the base, the left, the liberals.  He had no history, he came from nowhere.  The black portion of the base was allied with the Clintons, and unless Obama won over the old guard blacks, those who walked with MLK, his campaign wasn't going anywhere.  

That happened in Selma.  Selma was symbolic, and Obama wove a BS narrative to get the vanguard to accept him (and PS, his wife wasn't and isn't running for office, and for the record, she's a corporate lawyer whose job it was when working for the University of Chicago Medical Center was to extricate facility from having to treat the indigent).  

Obama himself was raised by a white banker, in expensive and elite private schools, and those are the values that define him, and that we see in how he governs.  There's nothing populist about his administra­tion.  It's Goldman Sachs, and just about every policy he's got going is a continuati­on of Bush-Chene­y.

Obama is a fr@ud.
