Hillary is traveling the state of Indiana with a message that she won't quit. Hillary is saying damn the party, this is personal. Hillary refuses to follow the rules. If the person running against Hillary was a raced white male, the party would have demand Hillary push out the race instead we have a race that will run until May in Indiana.
Hillary believes Indiana will support her in breaking the rules when she supporters should she quit. Of course, Hillary knows the answer to her question, but the question can she win the support of those other supporters who overwhelming support Barack Obama to beat Republican John McCain? Hillary knows the answer to the question is a negative, she won't but she refuses to concede to an African-American male.
Hillary refusal refusal is so strong that it gives the African-American community of the opinion of Judge Taney who stated in Scott, that an African-American is so inferior that no white man will consider the African-American his or her equal. Hillary stating she will not quit is coated in the same language. A language targeted to raced white folks that America does not have to play by the rules when its comes to African-Americans.
America was established by excluding African-American under its very own Constitution. Hilliary failure to concede to Obama ia just more act of carrying on the legacy of America mandate to deny full citizenship to the African-American. A message would come later from Judge Harlan in his dissent stating our Constitution is color blind. Harlan did not understand that the people who drafted the document were not by the people but by raced white folks in power who still embody Taney legacy.
