The campaign to be the next mayor of Chicago continues to develop largely along racial lines. On Wednesday former Democratic Sen. Carol Moseley Braun said that former President Clinton betrayed minority communities by campaigning for former chief of staff to President Obama Rahm Emanuel.Black Democrats are remarkably naïve. They actually believe that when Democrats are pandering to them they're being sincere. Consequently, they're shocked when a major Democrat figure ignores them and supports the machine candidate like Rahm Emanuel in Chicago. It happens over and over again and they never learn.
“For him to come on the day following Dr. Martin Luther King’s birthday to insert himself in the middle of a mayoral race,” Braun said in a statement, “is a betrayal of the people who were most loyal to him. It’s a mistake.”
“President Bill Clinton does not live or vote in Chicago,” said Braun. “He’s an outsider parachuting in to support another outsider.” Emanuel was an advisor to Clinton during his presidency.
At an event Wednesday, Braun elaborated to a local NBC affiliate.
“The African-American community if you remember when he was having Monica Lewinsky problems stuck by him,” she said, ”to stay out of it, that would have been the right move.”
