    Does not matter which African Americans haven't endorsed Obama. They do have a choice in this country...perhaps waiting until the Candidate is chosen, without media looking at statistics and start looking at what Obama...the clear favorite for so many is handling the pressure of an unending mischaracterization of who this man is and, who they really are. Clinton and McCain are so very predictable, good at slime, good at dishonesty, but not great on integrity...Obama will do just fine....He is the man that has the strength and judgement, obviously, to be the best President in decades.
