Obama gains support among white men
Hits it right home as to why so many emasculated white liberals are swooning over Barack Obama.Shelby Steele, the well-known conservative author and Stanford University scholar who is biracial like Obama, contends white liberals are drawn to Obama, in part, because a vote somehow absolves guilt for the nation's racist past. He believes Obama has gotten through the primary season with little scrutiny and without having to explain his philosophical underpinnings.
"You aren't voting for the man," Steele said, summarizing Obama's appeal to white men. "You don't know the man. You're voting for the opportunity to document you are not a racist."
