Announce my candidacy for president of the United States of america. Early in the campaign, black people were feeling somewhat neglected. Is he going to represent us . Is he going to take our issues seriously . People felt he wasnt black enough. Mccains crowds turned uglier. The discussion of race in this campaign has taken a particularly divisive turn. This is not a man who sees america the way that you and i see america. Okay, youre rolling. You obviously put a lot of thought into the decision to do this.
