In response to Obama's claim that Republicans will use race to stoke fear, Lt. Col Allen West, candidate for Congress in Florida's 22 District issued this release:
My advice to Senator Obama is to run as a Man and Leader, and the American people will evaluate you as such, not as a victim. This is a Presidential race, based solely on a capacity to lead the United States of America.
It is not about skin tone...however, perhaps we should come to expect these immature statements. It also seems rather humorous that the Presidential candidate who was supposed to be such a "uniter" and transcend race is the one talking about it the most.
If Senator Obama was confident in his abilities and character, he would not need to create a crutch for failure. Senator Obama has just tipped his hand, any criticism of him and his policies will be directly attributed to racism. I congratulate Senator Obama for taking race relations in America back some 30 years

Here, here!
Senator Obama cannot run as a man because as such he should have stepped up and denounced Reverend Wright years ago. He should have spoken more kindly of his grandmother. And, as a man, he should have an understanding of what war really is and how war is fought and won.
Obama can only run on what he knows - racism, eloquently reading the telepromptor, and affirmative action.
