A message to Hillary Clinton.
Dear Hillary:
The last I checked you're a Senator representing the state of New York. Your presidential opponent Barack Obama has offered a statement on the Sean Bell verdict, albeit a much too passive one. Now I'm sure that the media and your campaign feel that Obama's response was perhaps more "necessary" considering that he is of course a black man.
However, given the fact that this incident took place in the state whose interest you claim to represent, I wonder if you feel like commenting on it, or even--dare I say it---speaking out against it?
Or will you continue to play the game of silent-presidential politics?
Unfortunately we use Obama's race as a focal point on how we as a community should react and feel towards the tragedy... but as a Detroiter i am just as outraged at Mrs. Clintons apathy. Great statement.

From Hillary,
And if elected, we'll have 4 years of the same silent politics.
