Review:

SO McCain accuses Obama of PLAYING THE RACE CARD for his sin of saying that he didn't look 
the other presidents on US currency. Black people are not allowed to mention their race (and 
therefore the history and present discrimination that they receive) without being told they are playing 
the race card. It's low politics, keep using codewords for Obama's difference, foreigness, whatever, 
and then when he fights back accuse him of asking for special treatment because of his race. What 
does PLAYING THE RACE CARD actually mean... talking about race?
