Just wonderin', is all

Just wondering why there are people in this country who can't get past Barack Obama's skin color enough to vote for him, but they're perfectly OK with a presidential candidate who is 72 and has had multiple bouts of malignant melanoma (including one with lymph node involvement) and a vice-presidential running mate who's profoundly ignorant of just about everything she'd need to know to lead this country -- and who thinks we are not entitled to know anything at all about her?
