Charles R Stith, a Clinton appointee, says that blacks need to vote on the issues and not racial solidarity. In wrapping up his point, he waxes rhetorically:
Finally, while the issue of the lack of black appointed officials in Vermont made for titillating television during the debates, the more urgent question is this: Why after decades of African-American loyalty to the Democratic Party has it yet to produce its own Colin Powell or Condi Rice with the gravitas to realistically compete for the presidency?
That is the smartest thing I've ever heard from a Clinton appointee...
