Wow, they're starting to sound like middle-age, middle-class, white men; help, help, we're being oppressed by the minorities!

Well, in the Democratic Party where the voters' biggest decision is, "Do I want the first black president, or the first female president?" it can be not helpful.

Wow. I thought the headline was sarcasm, but, no.

Just...wow.

Those poor rich white guys...it's just sad.

This looks like an obituary picture.

Appropriate.

Though, to be fair the Republicans have to decide between "Do I really love Jesus enough to have his Prophet become our president," "Let's stay in Iraq for 100 years," and Mr. Double-Guantanamo-magic-underpants.

Romney.

I pick Barack Obama not because he is black, but because he is a great leader. Unlike Hillary voters whose only platform is "Hillary has a vagina!"

Even if his concern was genuine, he didn't come off that way.

I hate to say it because the premise of this whole idea is completely against what I stand for, but I somewhat agree with the article. forget Edwards, what about Joe Biden and Chris Dodd? Either one of these two men would make excellent presidents, but all the media attention was going to a lady and a black guy.
With that said though, I think its time for a change. I'm for Obama and Hilary scares me, but she sure as shiat is better than any republican running. This country needs a big change in direction like this so either one of them I would vote for.

Biden and Dodd are both good friends with Mccain and he could easliy cross party lines and have a democratic VP with all the cross over voting he already gets. Something like that could be good for the country too and may change my vote. Especially if the democrats nominate Hilary...

/yeah yeah I know. Then the rich white guy wins again...

I've heard she's had several. Keeps her favorites in a jar in the pantry.
