A price Obama wasn’t willing to pay out. Oh he tried, but he didn’t offer them enough it seems.

What happened to the black community trying to uplift and/or support one of their own? Oh yeah, that’s right…I remember some of the black community pointing to Condoleeze Rice and General Colin Powell labeling them with the inevitable name-calling of Uncle Toms.

In all fairness, I am a woman and I’m certainly not willing to uplift Hillary into the White House by any stretch of the imagination. Then again, I’m not a Democrat either. So there.

This only goes to show that money does, indeed, talk baby!

Barack who?
