Senators Clinton & Obama at the Urban League



More follow-up from Bloomberg's awesome speech to the National Urban League.   A friend who is an Eagle Academy board member
(one of two all-male  schools to open in NYC in 2004; see: http://www.insideschools.org/fs/school_profile.php?id=1295 <http://www.insideschools.org/fs/school_profile.php?id=1295>  ) and member of 100 Black Men attended the meeting, where Senators Clinton and Obama spoke afterward.  Here are his comments:

I am here in St. Louis at the private meeting for National Urban League leadership from around the country that Mayor Bloomberg spoke at.  The Mayor was excellent and was very well received.  At the presidential forum, Hillary once again wiped the  floor with Barack before a 98% Black audience. She showed more  courage on choice than he did. That is  the consensus of everyone  in the room.   Barack is making me a Hilary supporter.  I am trying  to find a reason to support him, but as I told one his top guys yesterday, he is making it hard.
