Geraldine: A White Obama Would Be Writing His Convention Speech

Here's the one question I'd like Geraldine Ferraro to answer:

Imagine a young, charismatic white candidate whose father left home when he was two, but achieved great success despite those depredations...who shunned the blandishments of corporate law to become a community organizer...who had the courage to take an early and prescient stand against the war...who wrote (without ghostwriters) two best-sellers...who leapt to fame with a magnificent speech at the Democratic National Convention...who is electrifying young voters and independents with his rejection of conventional political expediency, surrender and pettiness...whose ringing promise of change and summons to hope has broken all fundraising records.

Is there any doubt that this candidate would have sent Hillary Clinton -- with her hard negative ratings, her gutless war policy, her constant trimming and tacking, her baggage, her divisive opportunism -- back to Chappaqua?

Can we please remove race and gender from this election. Obama is the change we need. We do not need another war mongering, lobbyist loving, corporate sheepherder in office. I can't even think about it. OBAMA is the right choice.
