Almost all criticism concerning Obama is in regards to his character (or lack thereof), his votes, when he does vote (which are the most liberal in the Senate), his positions (which change daily) or his wife who can't keep her mouth shut but is off limits to criticism when she says something stupid.
Obama is the one throwing the race card early, loudly and often. Sorry bud, but this is a contest for the top prize. If you have to hide behind the black half of your heritage, and can't run on your merits, just maybe you shouldn't be running for office.
