O'Reilly And Krauthammer Agree: Obama Had A "Huge, Huge" "Enormous" Advantage As "First Black Ever Running" For President
Reported by Ellen - March 10, 2011 -
During a discussion with Charles Krauthammer Tuesday night (3/8/11) about the field of Republican presidential candidates for 2012, Bill O'Reilly offered a startling comment about Barack Obama in 2008.
O'Reilly and Krauthammer agreed that the GOP field is rather weak. But when Krauthammer said that an unknown could come along the way Obama did in 2007, O'Reilly said, "Let me challenge that. Barack Obama is a black man, OK? I mean, he's half black, half white, but his appearance is black. First black ever running, OK? Huge, huge advantage in the campaign. Enormous." O'Reilly went on to say that as a result, the press "actively promoted" Obama and his campaign.
Krauthammer replied, "All of that is true."
