Hey, isn't February "Black History Month"? |
|
I'm surprised he hasn't pointed this out on the campaign trail...how great would it be if Barack Obama became the first African American to be nominated for the Presidency by a major political party during Black History Month?

And Clinton has a spot on her website mentioning it.

7. My apologies to all, it is February. |
|
I always thought it was in the month of MLK's birthday. That shows how much I've been paying attention...not.

4. Kind of hard to be nominated in 'black history month' |
|

6. Well, he won't officially be nominated until August in either case. |
|
But it's possible he could unofficially wrap up the majority of delegates this month.

8. I heard Hillary's campaign tried changing it to "Make History Month" |
|
Maybe 1 person in a thousand will believe me. ;-)

9. Or cancelling Black History Month during election years. |
|
I mean - do they really need a whole month every year?
How much Black History does America need? :eyes:
;-)
