I too am interested in our future national leaders, but I wonder why Gwen chose African-American pols only ... win or lose, Obama's campaign has reminded Asian-Americans, Hispanic Americans, and African Americans that anything is possible.

Always second class Gwen, no matter what. I'm sorry, that's just the way it is.

I haven't read any partisanship into this book. Not possible since it has largely not even been written yet, much less published.

Do you have some sort of special crystal ball that allows you to see into the future, "bill"?

how can she be moderating the debate after writing this clearly partisan book?
