Don't get what all the fuss is about. EYE had no trouble understanding what Kerry meant. EYE've heard several black Americans refer to Clinton as the "First Black President." To them, it was a term of endearment.
Kerry's problem is that he just can't get them to UNDERSTAND that a rich, northern, coiffed and manicured liberal can "feel their pain."
Anywho, his statement doesn't bother me at ALL. But he's gonna have to work overtime to shore up relations with "concerned" black voters.
Snicker...snort...ahee..giggl e...bwahahahah!
Oh MY!
