A New Member and Recent Buzz

We have a new News Analyst, Julie. We have yet to find out her last name, but all that will be updated soon (we hope).

So during a discussion with the employees of other news organizations and candidate workers (otherwise known as lecture), it seems as if Barack Obama admitted to snorting coke, or "blow" in his autobiography, in his youth. Does that really surprise me? Not really. Most people during their college years "experiment" with various "substances," myself not included, of course. But it also seems as if the Clinton camp bring this point up over and over again when they have nothing else to assault Senator Obama with. Is it that really fair? Should what a candidate did in his youth really have an effect on his or her current campaign? Is Hilary Clinton as clean as she comes off to be?

And adding more fuel to the "racial" fire, it turns out the CEO of Black Entertainment Television (or better known as BET), supports Hilary Clinton, stating that she simply has more experience that Barack Obama. To some, this seems like an obvious decision. But to some, it seems racially motivated. If only we could interview the CEO of BET for more comments...
