| 00:00:00 | OF YOUR QUESTION HAD TO DO WITH COUNTRIES AROUND THE WORLD -- A COUPLE OF WEEKS BEFORE THE PRIMARY, I WAS IN AUSTRALIA, NEW ZEALAND, IN CHINA, AND EVERYBODY WAS TALKING ABOUT BARACK OBAMA. |
| 00:00:18 | THAT'S ALL THEY WANTED TO TALK ABOUT. |
| 00:00:20 | THEY'RE USED TO WOMEN RUNNING THINGS IN OTHER PARTS OF THE WORLD. |
| 00:00:24 | IT'S JUST IN THIS COUNTRY THAT WE AREN'T USED TO IT. |
| 00:00:27 | SO THESE PEOPLE WERE NOT LOOKING AT HILLARY CLINTON BECAUSE THEY'RE USED TO WOMEN RUNNING THINGS, THEY'RE NOT USED TO THIS COUNTRY HAVING BLACK FOLKS. |
| 00:00:38 | BUT YOU KNOW, I THINK THAT THE MEDIA WILL PLAY A VERY VIABLE AND I HOPE RESPONSIBLE ROLE, AND LET ME TELL YOU WHY I RAISED THIS ISSUE. |
| 00:00:47 | I WAS IN THE ROOM, I THINK JESSE WAS IN THERE, TOO, WHEN BARACK OBAMA CAME BACK FROM GERMANY, AND MADE HIS REPORT TO A DEMOCRATIC CAUCUS AND WHEN THE QUESTION WAS RAISED BY JIM OBERSTAR OF MINNESOTA AND THE PREFACED HIS QUESTION BY TALKING ABOUT SOME OF THOSE SAME DISCUSSIONS OF PEOPLE HE HAD ENCOUNTERED AROUND THE WORLD AND BARACK OBAMA RESPONDED BY SAYING, WELL, CONGRESSMAN, IT'S REALLY NOT ABOUT ME, THIS IS ABOUT WHAT PEOPLE ARE LOOKING TO THIS COUNTRY FOR. |
| 00:01:26 | YET, EVERY REPORT THAT CAME OUT OF THERE SAID THAT HE DID SAY IT WAS ABOUT HIM, AND THAT'S WHAT LED TO ALL OF THE CELEBRITY STUFF AND THAT WAS ABSOLUTELY WRONG. |
| 00:01:38 | IT DID NOT HAPPEN, IT WAS JUST THE OPPOSITE, BUT THE MEDIA DEFINED IT, AND I THINK THE MEDIA HAS GOT TO BE RESPONSIBLE IN THIS CAMPAIGN AND STOP KICKING -- PICKING UP ON THIS FOOLISHNESS. |
| 00:01:57 | >> MY NAME IS STAIS YEAH CAMPBELL, I PRACTICE LAW FOR LITLER, MENDELSON, ABOUT TWO YEARS AGO, FROM KANSAS. |
| 00:02:08 | LET ME TELL YOU MY BACKGROUND. |
| 00:02:09 | I GREW UP ON A FARM, ATCHISON, ONE OF THE LARGEST COMMUNITIES OF AFRICAN-AMERICAN FARMERS, I WAS IN A WHITE FRATERNITY AND HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO BE THE PRESIDENT OF THAT FRATERNITY. |
| 00:02:20 | LAST WEEK I GOT IN AN E-MAIL EXCHANGE WITH ONE OF MY FRATERNITY BROTHERS THAT WAS SENT AROUND TO A LIST OF PEOPLE, AN E-MAIL THAT WAS BASICALLY A JOKE AND THE JOKE WAS ON THE OBAMAS, AND I TOOK HIM TO TASK AND SAID |
