"African-Americans For Obama"

http://www.realclearpolitics.com/video/2012/02/02/obama_announces_2012_launch_of_african-americans_for_obama.html


I got an email this afternoon telling me about this new Obama campaign tactic.
How is this ok in America today?
How is this not racist? What do you supposed would happen if Romney announced a “White Americans for Romney”?
He’d be crucified yet it’s perfectly acceptable for Obama?
Please explain to me why this is ok for a black president but no white in this country could ever do this?

Well, some Jews have killed ex Nazis too. Israel should totally be apologizing to Germany every year for that. ;-)

Hey if we can rationalize why we shouldn't have accountability, why wouldn't we?!
