But would not Clinton stealing the nomination - by way of the proverbial smoked filled room - have an effect upon the Dem's African American base? The disillusionment and anger would be huge - and not just among African Amreicans. Such a breach between the Dem leadership and a significant portion of its base cannot but have significant implication. such a situation would open doors to the McKinney campaign, at the very least.
I don't think that national/race question would "go away" in such a context. SR
