(15,776 posts)An African American President who has a popular record on national security matters was in office when an American Ambassador was killed by an acknowledged terrorist attack. While this was occurring the Director of the CIA was busy squeezing and worrying about his illicit affair with a subordinate. A washed up and embittered Senator who lost the election to the current African American President allowed himself to be used by the Party who implied at one time he fathered a biracial child as the front man for a racist attack on the African American President and the candidate he chose (also African American) to be the successor to a very popular Secretary of State. After the current Republican candidate for the President embarrassed himself he abandoned this ridiculous charges in the Benghazi incident. The only reason anyone mentions this now is because the popular Secretary of State plans to run for President in 2016.
