IIRC, the first presidential candidate that she publicly endorsed was...
black! What a coincidence!
Kind of black.
Look, I abhor racism, but at the same time I think it is just as abhorrent to accuse someone of it that is not racist, and if you have a grievance of racism you had better have proof. Endorsing someone because they are from similar backgrounds is not proof racism. I think the thing that inspired Oprah regarding Obama was his book about Hope. That's what I think was what made her put her support behind him. She would have prayed about it and made sure she was doing the right thing for her.
