CASH MICHAELS, The Wilmington Journal
- The chairman of the Democratic National Committee has condemned controversial remarks by one of the presidents of the NC Democratic Party’s African-American Caucus (NCDPAAC), who recently said that black Democrats should only vote for Barack Obama in the fall, but not white Democratic candidates.
Meanwhile, a prominent member of the NC Democratic Party’s Executive Committee who earlier called for the dissolution of the NCDPAAC, is now warning the Obama campaign and other Democratic candidates not to give any money to the group until it straightens out its problems.
These two embarrassing developments are the latest blows to a statewide black political action organization that, history shows, has failed considerably to live up to its purpose.
