Reply #10: How do you know all of this?

He has only been accused. Are we now at the place in this country when a person who is accused is automatically guilty? Many people have been falsely accused. May I remind you of Bill Clinton and Hillary Clinton who for years were accused of all kinds of wrong doing. After using millions of dollars to investigate them, nothing was found to support the accusations. May I also remind you that another black man, Mike Espy, former Secretary of Agriculture, was tried for a crime and later exonerated. It is a sad fact that there are some in this country who do not want to see blacks in high office and thus those blacks who do achieve such office are watched closely. Labor secretary Alexis Herman was also accused of wrongdoing in office.

I am not saying Campbell is innocent;I am adopting a wait and see attitude. It just appears that too many people are willing to believe that a black person accused of a crime must be guilty of that crime. There have been many people, blacks as well as whites, who have served time for crimes they did not commit.
