White America's Shame

On Wednesday the president of the United States was subjected to a
humiliating moment that no president of the United States should ever be
forced to experience, to prove he's an American citizen and therefore
qualified to be president.
.
Yes, other presidents have had their moments of public humiliation, not
least Richard Nixon and Bill Clinton, but in Mr. Nixon's case and Mr.
Clinton's their humiliation resulted from illegal and immoral conduct.
Neither is true of Mr. Obama.
.
Barack Obama's humiliation was brought on by circumstance over which he
has no control -- the color of his skin.
.
The birther movement was born by Barack Obama's blackness.
.
Those who lead the campaign questioning Mr. Obama's birthplace did so
because they cannot accept that a black man is president of the United
States. They will deny their racism because to acknowledge it carries
legal, societal and political consequences; but there should be no
confusion -- their hatred of President Obama is centered in the color of
his black skin. And what the election of 2008 denied they have sought by
other means to counter -- no matter how dishonest or despicable those
means.
.
It is no small irony of our history that the political party that has
sought to benefit from challenging the president's citizenship is the
party of Abraham Lincoln, the man considered by most historians as
America's greatest president.
.
But Republicans who signed on for the crusade to destroy Barack Obama's
legitimacy as president have no shame, and being known as "The Party of
Lincoln" is valued only to the degree it is useful against charges of
racism.
