Comparing candidates because they happen to share ethnicity is more of the same. There is a long line of great orators who also happen to have been great Presidents and/or politicians/activists. Turn the page on these kinds of comparisons, please. It doesn't work for white candidates who happen to share the same ethnicity and/or backing either. Martha Stewart went to jail and she is a Hillary Clinton supporter. What does THAT tell us? Nothing. Ridiculous. Turn the page.
