ABC News: Geraldine Ferarro has resigned from the Clinton Campaign for making racial insensitive comments. It must be stress there is a difference between making an comment that is insensitive and being a racist. Ferarro the 1984 Vice - Presidential nominee for the Democrats stated that Obama was leading the race because he was black, aka Bill Clinton comment that Jesse Jackson had won some primaries before Obama. Ferarro is a liberal, the Mondale - Ferarro ticket lost by 49 states to one. If she was a Republican and had made that comment she would have to move country. The point being that she allowed her support of Senator Clinton and the chance of the First Woman President to colour her comments. She has resigned, time to move on to the issues facing the USA.
