Stuff a black candidate for president likes...

There's an hilarious, cheeky blog out there called "stuff white people like." (Click here for some great laughs.) So when I saw the latest Obama ad, I couldn't help but draw a correlation.

Here's the add in a nutshell: "I'm a black candidate who now has the minority vote locked up. So I want to take this opportunity to let you know something important: trust me, I really really really do like white people. Hell, I was even raised by some!" Over at The American Spectator, Phillip Klein says, "Clearly, Obama is trying to convey to white working class voters who eluded him in the primaries that he loves America, and white people." Apparantly, nothing says that better than cheesy guitar music and an ad with 99% whites.

Oh yeah, and for those of you who don't remember, the grandmother in this ad is the one Obama calls "the typical white person" and a "racist." But don't worry, near the top of the list of stuff a black candidate for president likes, is white people.

Maybe I'm an anomaly, but I'm ready to put this race issue to rest. Obama isn't.
